The unique public markets of Barcelona are poised for a thriving future based on their commitment to both global influences as well as the local traditions of trade and consumption. This global/local balance keeps the markets relevant to contemporary consumers allowing them to have a well-rounded experience as they shop. In this paper, I trace the history and previous incarnations of public markets over the centuries. I then uncover the debate surrounding globalization and its influence on the food system. Thereafter, I analyze the role of globalization manifested through the goals of the IMMB and their current tactics. I then examine the role of the IMMB and the community. By probing the layers of the market system, it is possible to comprehend the far-reaching influence they have on the city of Barcelona, her citizens, and even on the cities and countries involved with the markets beyond Barcelona s borders. This, then, helps us to understand why concentrating on and supportingthe markets will help to ensure the dynamism of food consumption as well as a healthy city overall economically, culturally, and socially and one that will continue to thrive into the future.
