Abstract
TELLEZ SILVA, José Merced; VARGAS VELAZQUEZ, Sergio; HERNANDEZ AVILA, Jesús and GOMEZ DEMETRIO, William. Social Participation and Public Policies for Basic Food Supply in Mexico. Revista Col. San Luis [online]. 2022, vol.12, n.23, 00033. Epub May 27, 2024. ISSN 2007-8846. https://doi.org/10.21696/rcsl122320221427.
Social participation has been vigorously promoted in renowned Latin American public policies, such as: the National Solidarity Program, Progresa, Oportunidades and the National Crusade Against Hunger (Mexico); Fome Zero and the Brasil Sem Miséria Plan (Brazil), as well as the food security policies of Cuba and Uruguay. Now, in Mexico, with Mexican Food Security seeks to promote the agricultural sector to increase production, economic benefit and well-being of rural communities with the participation of producers and their organizations. For this reason, a hermeneutic analysis of a socio-critical approach was carried out on the inclusive food policies with the greatest relative success in Latin America to contrast them with the social participation component considered in the Mexican Food Security policy. As a result, it is shown that food policies with greater relative success denote greater participation of producers and their organizations, but at the same time there is little empirical evidence of social participation that intervenes in public policies, which limits its analysis based on results.
