Synopsis
This book offers a curated collection of scholarship that significantly contributes to the shaping of Critical Food Studies in Asia. Drawing on a machine-generated literature review of select Springer publications, it highlights the critical turn in Food Studies rooted in the recognition that everyday social discourses surrounding food embody complex interrelations of power dynamics, identity politics, and ideological underpinnings. The book maps out key conceptual frameworks, methods, and methodologies from various disciplines, offering insights into the understanding and analysis of foodways and practices. The editors’ introductions accompanying the structured reviews open up discussions on prominent trajectories, frameworks, and future research scope in the area, making it an essential reference point for scholars, educators, and students alike. It also initiates deliberations on the complexities of working within a heterogeneous space like Asia, while exploring its potential to evolve newer frameworks and alternative knowledge systems to critically engage with gastronomic practices. The auto-summaries have been generated by a recursive clustering algorithm via the Dimensions Auto-summarizer by Digital Science. The editors of this book selected which SN content should be auto-summarized and decided its order of appearance. Please be aware that these are extractive auto-summaries, which consist of original sentences, but are not representative of its original paper, since we do not show the full length of the publication. Please note that only published SN content is represented here, and that machine-generated books are still at an experimental stage.
