Description
Summary:Based on empirical research, this book focuses on the ambivalences and contraditions of eating in Vietnam. Against the background of an emerging consumer society and the globalisation of the agro-food system, eating becomes centre stage for people's bodily integrity, social differentiation, identity projects as well as a lynchpin for national and international food policies.
Auf Basis empirischer Studien befasst sich dieses Buch mit den Ambivalenzen und Widersprüchlichkeiten des Essens in Vietnam. Vor dem Hintergrund einer erstarkenden Konsumgesellschaft und der Globalsiierung des Agrar- und Lebensmittelsystems rückt Essen verstärkt ins Zentrum körperlicher Integrität, wird zu einem starken Referenzpunkt sozialer Differenzierung und Identität sowie staatlicher und internationaler Ernährungspolitiken.
