Abstract

The essay aims to explore the possibility of using the Complex Notion of Health to contribute to the understanding of agroecology under a new look, inspired by Complexity Theory, aiming to observe reality through principles different from those that originated conventional agriculture. The paper examines the principles and their coherence with an agroecological system, as well as health as a way to planetary sustainability.
