Conflicting Conceptions of Place between Civil Society and Council Actors Involved in Local-level Food Policy Development: The Cases of Devon and Bath, UK

Abstract

This study took the form of qualitative interviews with both CS and LA actors involved in local-level food policy development: five actors from Bath and Northeast Somerset were interviewed (three LA actors and two CS actors), and six from Devon (one LA actor and five CS actors). The interviews focused on the beliefs of the actors relating to local-level food production and how it can foster sustainability objectives.
