Digital Food Activism: Critical Food Studies

Editat de Tanja Schneider, Karin Eli, Catherine Dolan, Stanley Ulijaszek
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 ian 2018
Digital Food Activism is a new edited volume that investigates how digital media technologies are transforming food activism and consumers' engagements with food, eating, and food systems. Bringing together critical food studies, economic anthropology, digital sociology, and science and technology studies, Digital Food Activism offers innovative multi-disciplinary analyses of food activist practices on social media, mobile apps, and hybrid online and offline alternative spaces. With chapters that focus on diverse digital platforms, food-related issues, and geographic locales, this volume reveals how platforms, programmers, and consumers are becoming key mediators of the mandate of food corporations and official governing actors. Digital Food Activism thereby suggests that emerging forms of activism in the digital era hold the potential to reshape the ethics, aesthetics, and patterns of food consumption.

Recenzii

"Tanya Schneider and colleagues’ new edited volume on Digital Food Activism is a fascinating exploration of the ways in which new digital and technological formations are making possible new forms of food activism. Drawing on examples ranging from apps that help consumers to identify brands in conflict with their own values and ethics, to the possibilities and surprises that 3D food printing might afford, the volume extends existing scholarship on digital activism, food activism and their intersections. For those interested in media studies, food studies, science and technology studies, or those hacking at these disciplinary divisions, this volume will provide much food for thought, digital and otherwise." - Michelle Pentecost, Department of Global Health and Social Medicine, King's College London
Excerpt from Food, Culture & Society, An International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research
This volume would be of great use to scholars and students of critical food studies as well as in courses on social media or digital activism, where its focus on food provides concrete examples of the ways online actions reshape the material world. - Chelsie Yount-André, CIRAD research center, University of Montpellier, France.
