Food, Migration and Belonging
Description
This book maps the concepts that capture changing alimentary practices, starting from the impact of migration on contemporary Europe. Our relationship with food, the members of our community with whom we share our meals, and the fertile earth, is changing fast in these times of migration and globalization. The book shows how these practices give form to a (new) world, while outlining a refreshing overview of the social and political realities that sign the times. Written by academics from both the social sciences and the humanities, together with activists, policy makers, migrants, artists and chefs, every contribution is deeply entangled with the changing realities of everyday life today.
