As in other key collections from our field, this book shares the engaged work of researchers and teachers with their communities, specifically their food communities. Contributors illustrate the field’s unique ability to connect rhetorical theories with literacy practices in local contexts; in this case, such connections provide a clearer view of the state of food justice globally and locally, as well as how we might engage in and impact food justice work.” - Review, Mike Pennell, University of Kentucky

The restaurants book: ethnographies of where we eat by Beriss, David
Call Number: E-Book!
ISBN: 1847883508
Publication Date: 2020
"Is the restaurant an ideal total social phenomenon for the contemporary world? Restaurants are framed by the logic of the market, but promise experiences not of the market. Restaurants are key sites for practices of social distinction, where chefs struggle for recognition as stars and patrons insist on seeing and being seen. Restaurants define urban landscapes, reflecting and shaping the character of neighborhoods, or standing for the ethos of an entire city or nation. Whether they spread authoritarian French organizational models or the bland standardization of American fast food, restaurants have been accused of contributing to the homogenization of cultures. Yet restaurants have also played a central role in the reassertion of the local, as powerful cultural brokers and symbols for protests against a globalized food system. The Restaurants Book brings together anthropological insights into these thoroughly postmodern places." - Publisher
