SomePoliticsisLocal
PerhapsIveoverstatedthecase.ThoughbookslikeTheOmnivoresDilemmaendeavortoreconcile agrarianpopulismwithsocialconscienceviaresponsibleconsumption,Pollansmorerecentwritings haverecognizedtheinadequacyofconsumeristpolitics.Votingwithourforkscanadvancereformonly sofar,hehassinceproclaimedrealchangedemandsthatpeoplewadeintothemuddypoliticalwaters ofagriculturalpolicyandvotewiththeirvotesaswell.59Indeed,Pollansactivismsurroundingthe2007 USFarmBillinspiredthousandsofAmericanstoactuallyinvestigatethistypicallyobscureand enduringlyimpenetrablepieceoffederallegislation,studyingsomeverycomplexanddecidedly unromanticdynamicsguidingagriculturalpolicyandbudgetaryprocess,alltowardtheendofa responsibleassessmentoftheimpossibilityofredirectinginternationalagriculturalmarketsandtrends withouttheactiveparticipationofstates. Similarly,Guthmanidentifiessignificantdifferencesbetweenvariousapproachestolocalfoods.Most notably,sheidentifiestwotypesofCSA:oneinwhicheaterspayanominalsubscriptionfeeinexchange forashareofthefarmsyield,andanotherinwhicheatersinvestintheequityofthefarmandshareits profits,itsrisks,andresponsibilities.Theformer,whichGuthmancallsmorecommonandlessradical, isabasicsubscriptionarrangementinwhichconsumerscommittoaparticulargrowertheysacrifice someindividualchoiceofgoods,butdonotsignificantlyaltertheirroleasconsumer.Butinthelatter version,subscribersreallyarecoownersinthefarm(albeitonalimitedbasis),andGuthmanmakesa convincingcasethatitoffersasignificantdecommodificationofbothfoodandland,especiallyasthese farmsrarelyshowaprofitandtypicallydependupongrantsfortheirviability.60Thecommonversionis benevolentconsumerism,whereasthelatter,whilestillorganizedaroundconsumeractivity,compels eaterstotakeontheresponsibilitiesandrisksrequiredofcommunityownership.Thecommonversion strivesforpostpoliticalassemblage,puttingaclassbiasedairofharmoniousexchangeontheotherwise unchangedinstitutionofthemarkettheradicalversionisselfconsciouslypolitical,theorizingand enactingaformofcollectiveactionthattransformsthenatureofownership,citizenship,andcontrol.
