Before it was called "local first" it was known as "subsidiarity". Seeing the principle applied to food, politics, software is exciting to me.
"Subsidiarity is an organizing principle that matters ought to be handled by the smallest, lowest or least centralized competent authority. Political decisions should be taken at a local level if possible, rather than by a central authority".[1]
