Abstract

While sustainable development receives increasing media and political repercussion,
the need for an eco-social and democratic transition is declared by certain academic, social and political
fields. Considering that we are dealing a civilizational challenge without precedents, to focus
in the psycho-cultural transition is so important as it is the material reorganization. This article studies
young people who have chosen to achieve food sovereignty, inquiring into their experiences
leaving the city-life and living in a self-containment and autonomous way. The main objective is to
obtain useful learnings for the subjective field of the eco-social transition: on the one hand, to distinguish
the impacts and tension points that an individual develops within a self-containment lifeexperience, and on the other, to examine which are the social senses attached to his practice. To investigate counter-hegemonical life practices, which are articulated in front of a normative economic and subjective model, becomes especially interesting, if we assume that they could clear up some keys about the environmental challenge we face.
