De la cuina a la fàbrica

L'alimentació centra gran part dels principals debats que es donen en l'actualitat a la nostra societat. Totes les etapes de la cadena alimentària des de la producció primària dels aliments fins la seua comercialització han estat motiu de controvèrsia. Per abordar aquestes qüestions l'anàlisi històrica resultarà una eina molt valuosa. Així es fa palès en aquest llibre. Amb ell ens desplaçarem a l'Europa de finals del segle XIX i començaments del segle XX i així ens introduirem en els grans canvis que llavors experimentà el sector de l'alimentació; uns canvis que establiren les bases de l'actual cadena alimentària. De la cuina a la fàbrica aborda aquesta reorganització de la cadena alimentària i posteriorment aprofundeix en les conseqüències que tingué sobre la qualitat i seguretat dels aliments. Ximo Guillem-Llobat és llicenciat en Bioquímica i en Biologia (UVEG), Màster en Comunicació Científica (Universitat Pompeu Fabra) i Doctor per la Universitat de València. L'estudi històric de la gestió de la qualitat i seguretat alimentària en el tombant de segle XIX ha estat la seua principal línia de recerca.

Edible Identities: Food as Cultural Heritage

  • Publisher: Routledge

Food - its cultivation, preparation and communal consumption - has long been considered a form of cultural heritage. A dynamic, living product, food creates social bonds as it simultaneously marks off and maintains cultural difference. In bringing together anthropologists, historians and other scholars of food and heritage, this volume closely examines the ways in which the cultivation, preparation, and consumption of food is used to create identity claims of 'cultural heritage' on local, regional, national and international scales. Contributors explore a range of themes, including how food is used to mark insiders and outsiders within an ethnic group; how the same food's meanings change wit...

Food and Cultural (In)Compatibilities

From the anthropological point of view, eating means to ingest qualities, but also defects. Digestion is a double process, encompassing both assimilation and distribution through transformation. This book is based on the contributions of specialists in various fields of activity, including anthropology, medicine, cultural studies, archaeology, theatre, linguistics, who explore how we understand the cultural heritage of food, and how this defines the stratification of society. Providing insights into the compatibility and incompatibility of physical and cultural food, this book offers a higher level of understanding of the world in which we live.

Food, Social Change and Identity

Unlike food publications that have been more organized along regional or disciplinary lines, this edited volume is distinctive in that it brings together anthropologists, archaeologists, area study specialists, linguists and food policy administrators to explore the following questions: What kinds of changes in food and foodways are happening? What triggers change and how are the changes impacting identity politics? In terms of scope and organization, this book offers a vast historical extent ranging from the 5th mill BCE to the present day. In addition, it presents case studies from across the world, including Asia, the Pacific, the Middle East, Europe and America. Finally, this collection of essays presents diverse perspectives and differing methodologies. It is an accessible introduction to the study of food, social change and identity.

Catalan Cuisine

“A great source of inspiration,” this cookbook is a stunning, mouthwatering homage to the unique, beloved, and healthy cuisine of Catalonia (Alice Waters, chef/owner of Chez Panisse). Once an undiscovered gem among Europe’s culinary traditions, the cuisine of Catalonia, a province of northeast Spain, has become an inspiration to some of the world’s top chefs. Catalan Cuisine is the definitive guide to authentic Catalan cooking—the book that introduced this remarkable cuisine to America, and a volume that is found today in the kitchens of some of Catalonia’s most famous chefs. Using many of the same fresh ingredients as other Mediterranean cuisines—tomato, garlic, olives, beans,...
