Food Production.

by Chakladar, Amit.
Call Number 664.02
Publication Date 2020
Summary The book, written in lucid language and organised in sequential order, could be useful for readers of various walks of life. Much of it is introductory for a student, but serves to link food producing principles with western concepts of living and hospitality. To a budding culinary student, much of it will be touch-and-go but rewarding - if mastered. The text, at the same time, is ideal for all the semesters of the three/four year diploma/degree courses.

Call Number 363.85 FOO
Publication Date 2014
Summary "Across the globe, people are challenging the agro-industrial food system and its exploitation of people and resources, reduction of local food varieties, and negative health consequences. In this collection leading international anthropologists explore food activism across the globe to show how people speak to, negotiate, or cope with power through food. Who are the actors of food activism and what forms of agency do they enact? What kinds of economy, exchanges, and market relations do they practice and promote? How are they organized and what are their scales of political action and power relations? Each chapter explores why and how people choose food as a means of forging social and economic justice, covering diverse forms of food activism from individual acts by consumers or producers to organized social groups or movements. The case studies embrace a wide geographical spectrum including Cuba, Sri Lanka, Egypt, Mexico, Italy, Canada, France, Colombia, Japan, and the USA. This is the first book to examine food activism in diverse local, national, and transnational settings, making it essential reading for students and scholars in anthropology and other fields interested in food, economy, politics and social change"--

Geographies of food : an introduction / Moya Kneafsey, Damian Maye, Lewis Holloway, Mike Goodman.

2024-05-16T19:06:24Z

by Kneafsey, Moya, author.
Call Number XX(297158.1)
Publication Date 2021
Summary What is the future of food in light of growing threats from the climate emergency and natural resource depletion, as well as economic and social inequality? This textbook engages with this question, and considers the complex relationships between food, place, and space, providing students with an introduction to the contemporary and future geographies of food and the powerful role that food plays in our everyday lives. Geographies of Food explores contemporary food issues and crises in all their dimensions, as well as the many solutions currently being proposed. Drawing on global case studies from the Majority and Minority Worlds, it analyses the complex relationships operating between people and processes at a range of geographical scales, from the shopping decisions of consumers in a British or US supermarket, to food insecurity in Sub-Saharan Africa, to the high-level political negotiations at the World Trade Organization and the strategies of giant American and European agri-businesses whose activities span several continents. With over 60 color images and a range of lively pedagogical features, Geographies of Food is essential reading for undergraduates studying food and geography.
