Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
This seminar explores the relationship between food, society and the unequal processes of globalisation. While food is a form of energy which we need to survive, it has also taken on important cultural and political meanings which mediate and shape our relationships to each other and to the world around us. Food plays an important role in the formation of cultural identity; in the determination of concepts of purity and pollution; in the articulation of religious membership; in the formation of political communities; and in the making of social capital. Taking an interdisciplinary and international approach, we will adopt concepts drawn from anthropology, economics, history, sociology, political theory, cultural studies, and the natural sciences to explore these dimensions in a comparative context.
