Editat de Vicki Harman, Benedetta Cappellini, Charlotte Faircloth
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 oct 2018
This cross-disciplinary volume brings together diverse perspectives on children’s food occasions inside and outside of the home across different geographical locations. By unpacking mundane food occasions - from school dinners to domestic meals and from breakfast to snacks - Feeding Children Inside and Outside the Home shows the role of food in the everyday lives of children and adults around them. Investigating food occasions at home, schools and in nurseries during weekdays and holidays, this book reveals how children, mothers, fathers, teachers and other adults involved in feeding children, understand, make sense of and navigate ideological discourses of parenting, health imperatives and policy interventions.
Revealing the material and symbolic complexity of feeding children, and the role that parenting and healthy discourses play in shaping, perpetuating and transforming both feeding and eating, this volume shows how micro and macro aspects are at play in mundane and everyday practices of family life and education. This volume will be of great interested to a wide range of students and researchers interested in the sociology of family life, education, food studies and everyday consumption.

Recenzii

"This is a fascinating and highly relevant edited collection relating to children’s lives and food practices. Across the book we learn the ways that social contexts shape and inform what children eat across different countries and cultures. Whilst parenting is a key component of the analysis within several chapters this is usefully set within a broader context to acknowledge that family food work is influenced by settings beyond the home, with broader discourses about health, intervention and surveillance of families critically exposed."
- Wendy Wills, Professor of Food and Public Health, University of Hertfordshire
"In this timely collection the editors shine a much-needed light on ‘feeding children’ as a political practice at the centre of social reproduction. Uniquely bringing together insights from across disciplines, countries and settings, the book will be essential reading for students and researchers in the sociology and anthropology of food, childhood and women’s studies."
- Rebecca O'Connell, Reader in the Sociology of Food and Families, Thomas Coram Research Unit, UCL Institute of Education
"The scope of this collection of essays, including its global reach, makes it genuinely thought provoking. It is far more than a collection of stand-alone essays about feeding children. Knitted together with reference to wider sociological themes throughout, the collection will be of interest not only to sociologists of food, but also those interested in family, parenting cultures, gender, policy making and methodological questions raised by comparative research."
- Ellie Lee, Professor of Parenting and Family Research, University of Kent
