Description

Explore the deep connections between diet and culture with Food and Foodways in Asia. This anthropological study examines how food serves as a marker of identity in modern Asian societies. By looking at food as a medium for understanding social relations, this text explores how family, kinship, class, and gender ideology are expressed through what people eat. Beyond simple consumption, this book provides a detailed look at the politics of food production. It investigates how, when, and why different foods are produced and supplied. Readers will gain a better understanding of how food production interacts with social and political structures through rich ethnographic descriptions and analysis. This is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in the social sciences and the cultural symbolism found within Asian food systems.
