Stuffed and Starved

Completely updated and revised edition of one of the most widely-praised food books of recent years. It's a perverse fact of modern life: There are more starving people in the world than ever before, while there are also more people who are overweight. To find out how we got to this point and what we can do about it, Raj Patel launched a comprehensive investigation into the global food network. It took him from the colossal supermarkets of California to India's wrecked paddy-fields and Africa's bankrupt coffee farms, while along the way he ate genetically engineered soy beans and dodged flying objects in the protestor-packed streets of South Korea. What he found was shocking, from the false choices given us by supermarkets to a global epidemic of farmer suicides, and real reasons for famine in Asia and Africa. Yet he also found great cause for hope--in international resistance movements working to create a more democratic, sustainable and joyful food system. Going beyond ethical consumerism, Patel explains, from seed to store to plate, the steps to regain control of the global food economy, stop the exploitation of both farmers and consumers, and rebalance global sustenance.

Subsistence Agriculture in the US: Reconnecting to Work, Nature and Community (Routledge-SCORAI Studies in Sustainable Consumption)

Focusing on ethnography and interviews with subsistence food producers, this book explores the resilience, innovation and creativity taking place in subsistence agriculture in America. To date, researchers interested in alternative food networks have often overlooked the somewhat hidden, unorganized population of household food producers. Subsistence Agriculture in the US fills this gap in the existing literature by examining the lived experiences of people taking part in subsistence food production. Over the course of the book, Colby draws on accounts from a broad and diverse network of people who are hunting, fishing, gardening, keeping livestock and gathering and looks in depth at the way in which these practical actions have transformed their relationship to labor and land. She also explores the broader implications of this pro-environmental activity for social change and sustainable futures. With a combination of rigorous academic investigation and engagement with pressing social issues, this book will be of great interest to scholars of sustainable consumption, environmental sociology and social movements.

Sueño mexicano

«EN LA VIDA HAY QUE TENER SUEÑOS LO SUFICIENTEMENTE REALISTAS PARA LLEGAR A ELLOS ANTES DE MORIR, PERO LO SUFICIENTEMENTE MOTIVANTES PARA LEVANTARSE TODOS LOS DÍAS A LUCHAR POR ELLOS.» Don Arnoldo de la Rocha es originario de la sierra de Chihuahua. Aprendió a trabajar la tierra desde los seis años, usó zapatos a partir de los ocho y entró a la escuela a los once. Forzada por la necesidad, su familia dejó el campo para instalarse en la ciudad. Luego de tocar fondo durante un turbulento periodo de adaptación al nuevo entorno, Arnoldo recibió una llamada que le cambiaría la vida: su tío lo invitaba a que aprendiera el oficio de asar pollos al carbón en su local para que después abriera su propia parrilla en otra ciudad. Desarraigado, inconforme, hambriento literal y figurativamente, soñador, Arnoldo tomó la oportunidad, aunque se resistía a abandonar los paradigmas con los que había crecido. Con el tiempo, descubrió su pasión por el negocio y, junto con sus socios, reunió los locales de la familia bajo la marca Pollo Feliz, la cual se volvería una exitosa cadena de restaurantes en México y el sur de Estados Unidos. El tercer libro de la colección Conecta México consiste en una historia de una familia que dejó el campo persiguiendo un sueño y lo cumplió tras una parrilla, que convirtió sus locales en un laboratorio de emprendedores y que finalmente alcanzó la prosperidad. Un camino cuesta arriba en todos los sentidos hacia la trascendencia que se acompaña de profundas reflexiones, enseñanzas de vida y consejos para los jóvenes emprendedores.

Suffering Succotash: A Picky Eater's Quest to Understand Why We Hate the Foods We Hate

As a child Stephanie Lucianovic lived for years on grilled cheese and created an elaborate system for disposing of revolting food involving bookshelves, holiday centerpieces, and, later, boyfriends. She agonized not over meeting her future in-laws, but over the peaches they served her. As an adult, this picky eater found herself in the most unlikely of circumstances: a graduate of culinary school who became a cheesemonger and then a food writer. Along the way, she realized just how common her plight was. It wasn’t surprising to discover that picky eating is an issue for millions of kids, but who knew there are even support groups for adults who can’t overcome it? Yet remarkably little is known about the science of picky eating, and cultural and historical questions abound. Are picky eaters destined to ascend to a higher plane of existence, and what happens when picky eaters fall in love or go to restaurants? How can you tell if you’re a “supertaster”? How does the gag reflex affect pickiness (and what secrets do sword swallowers impart to help overcome it)? Suffering Succotash is a wide-angle look into the world of picky eating, told by a writer who’s been in the culinary trenches. With wit and charm, through visits to laboratories specializing in genetic analysis, attempts to infiltrate the inner workings of a “feeding” clinic, and interviews with fellow picky eaters and adventurous foodies young and old, Stephanie explores her own food phobias and gets to the bottom of what repulses us about certain foods, what it really means to be a picky eater, and what we can do about it. .
