ANT400.2 : Food, Culture and Identity - HONORS
Description:
An exploration into historical and contemporary perspectives on food as a way of focusing on a range of personal, political, cultural and economic issues. Students are introduced to a variety of critical approaches and explore questions about power and representation, examining the role of food in the construction of identity. In considering food as a socio-cultural boundary marker, the course includes a comparative study of food in Britain and America. Organized field trips help students to situate their theoretical understanding of food in relation to London's many foodscapes.
