Description

Obesity Discourse and Fat Politics: Research, Critique and Interventions by Routledge provides a critical look at the global conversation surrounding weight. While many policy reports and white papers use alarmist rhetoric about an obesity time-bomb, this book challenges the assumption that fatness is inherently damaging to national economies and public health. Featuring contributions from experts in the UK, Canada, the USA, and Australia, this work offers alternative perspectives on the current public health crisis. The content originated from an Economic and Social Research Council seminar series on Fat, making it a valuable resource for those studying the social and political dimensions of weight discourse. This book serves as a scholarly critique of the narratives used in national contexts to discuss obesity and its impact on society.
