| Altre informazioni significative: | i'm also organizer of workshop: Food, migration, identities and marketplace. "The manner in which people procure, select, prepare, and consume food reflects complex interrelations and interactions among individuals, their culture, and the society in which they live. Ongoing debate on migration is matched by growing interest on food related practices and their social, economic and cultural outcomes. Our understanding of the process of migration, of identity construction, and of the relations between different groups, can benefit greatly by peering through the lens of food. The purpose of the workshop is to explore linkages between migration and food. The workshop will focus on the following key issues: meanings of food and eating across cultures; food economies and cultures of taste; food and identity; natives, migrants and "marker" foods; ethnic identity and cultural translation in the marketplace; food shopping and consumption behavior of migrant communities; food habits after migration and health." |
