This book delves into the intricate organizational dynamics of community-driven food surplus redistribution, with no monetary exchange, in Aotearoa New Zealand. Using ethnographic insights from the Free Food Store – a shop that collects surplus food and gives it to customers for free – it illuminates the nuanced interplay between faith and neoliberalism, the significance of use value in organizational interactions and the power dynamics within the shop. Additionally, the book employs innovative narrative approaches to explore the unique experiences of an academic activist collaborating with a local community organization. Set against the backdrop of the pressing societal challenge posed by the coexistence of food surplus, food waste and food poverty, the text draws on insights from scholarly conversations on religion and organising, Marxian critical political economy, diverse economies, Foucauldian dispositive theory and academic activism. Ultimately, by taking readers through a personal and theoretical journey, the book invites them to envision and engage with alternative socioeconomic relations and offers a thought-provoking perspective on addressing these pressing issues.
