Fast Food/Slow Food: The Cultural Economy of the Global Food System (Society for Economic Anthropology Monograph Series): 24

Fast Food/Slow Food: The Cultural Economy of the Global Food System (Society for Economic Anthropology Monograph Series): 24

by Richard Wilk (Editor)

Synopsis

Wilk and his colleagues draw upon their own international field experience to examine how food systems are changing around the globe. The authors offer a cultural perspective that is missing in other economic and developmental studies, and provide rich ethnographic data on markets, industrial production, and food economies. This new book will appeal to professionals in economic and environmental anthropology: economic development, agricultural economics, consumer behavior, nutritional sciences, environmental sustainability, and globalization studies.
