Description

The Political Economy of Diet, Health and Food Policy explores critical food systems theory and examines how dietary choices connect to broader economic structures. This Routledge publication addresses the diet paradox, analyses European Union impacts on food consumption patterns, evaluates UK policy gaps, and investigates modern diseases of affluence linked to current eating habits. The book builds on established food systems frameworks whilst offering fresh perspectives on why populations struggle with nutrition despite widespread health information. Readers gain insight into the interconnections between economic forces, policy decisions, and individual food choices, making it essential for understanding contemporary food policy debates.

Key Features

The Political Economy of Diet, Health and Food Policy is volume 24 in the Routledge Frontiers of Political Economy series, providing academic rigour within a established publication line.

Resolves the diet paradox by examining why improved health knowledge fails to translate into healthier population-wide eating patterns.

Analyses the European Union's direct and indirect influence on food systems and dietary behaviours across member nations.

Identifies and critiques the absence of comprehensive food policy frameworks in the United Kingdom.

Investigates diseases of affluence and their connections to modern consumption patterns and economic food systems.

Applies food systems theory to understand how economic structures shape what people eat and their resulting health outcomes.
