Urban agriculture, social innovation, and governance: a study in Florianópolis

Abstract

The present article aims to understand the social innovation processes produced by urban agriculture practices in the city of Florianópolis. We present the results of a qualitative intrinsic case study, conducted from a pragmatistic perspective and based on the analytical-methodological framework of the ethnography of public arenas. From a cartography of the field of practices of urban agriculture in the city, we identified three major social innovation dynamics situated in three different public arenas: organic solid waste, human right to adequate food, and production and consumption cycles. The results subsidize the understanding of the complexity of social innovation processes and their implications for the governance of the city.
