It argues that no national sustainability policy can meet EU and UN targets without examining the historical construction of the agrifood system and its lock-ins. By analyzing key products-wheat, tomato, olive oil, pork, chicken, and fish-it captures production regime specificities while explaining the sector's transition toward sustainability. The book describes structural transformations and the adaptation of European policies in Greece, emphasizing hurdles and resistance to alignment with EU objectives. Its longitudinal approach provides a deep understanding of sociomaterial and sociotechnical systems.
