| contents | ENTREPRENEURSHIP AS ACTIVISM? RESISTING GENTRIFICATION IN OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA ALISON HOPE ALKON Administración y Contabilidad activism food justice gentrification Entrepreneurship cultural politics This article investigates the cultural politics of entrepreneurship as a form of opposition to gentrification in Oakland, California. Building on Watkins and Caldwell’s (2004) foundational work, I examine the relationship between political projects - resisting gentrification, racial and economic disparities - and the cultural work of signifying a community’s continued presence amidst displacement and glorification of newcomers. Based on 30 interviews with employees of food justice non-profit organizations, social enterprises, and government agencies, I argue that activists promote food-based entrepreneurship to create employment and business opportunities for long-term residents that enables them to stay in their hometown. In doing so, the contributions of long-standing communities to Oakland’s diverse food cultures are highlighted. However, property values are rising rapidly that even these opportunities cannot ensure that long-term communities remain. For this reason, I conclude by offering examples of direct action and policy advocacy that can supplement these entrepreneurial approaches. 2018 artículo científico 0034-7590 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=155158452008 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1551/155158452008/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1551/155158452008/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1551/155158452008/155158452008.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1551/155158452008/movil 10.1590/S0034-759020180308 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1551 RAE - Revista de Administração de Empresas application/pdf Fundação Getulio Vargas RAE - Revista de Administração de Empresas (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.58 |
