Description

This Routledge academic text explores how food rhetoric shapes cultural meaning, identity, and social power across contemporary society. The collection examines discourse and material practices spanning politics, advertising, environment, and economy through diverse settings including the White House, social movements, television, urban gardens, farmers markets, and agriculture institutions. Contributors analyse how food functions as a rhetorical force in lifestyle choices, cultural identity formation, and ideological struggle, offering scholars and students critical frameworks for understanding food's role in shaping everyday life, consumer behaviour, and social movements. Essential reading for those studying rhetoric, communication, food studies, sociology, and the intersection of discourse and material culture.

Key Features

The Rhetoric of Food is part of Routledge Studies in Rhetoric and Communication, a peer-reviewed academic series recognised for rigorous scholarship.

Essays examine food rhetoric across multiple media channels and institutional settings from domestic to international agriculture contexts.

The collection addresses power dimensions in food politics, cultural identity, lifestyle practices, and environmental discourse relevant to contemporary social issues.

Contributors analyse how food rhetoric operates in advertising, popular culture, and social movements to shape collective understanding and practice.

Published by Routledge, this book provides theoretical and critical approaches suitable for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate study in rhetoric, communication, and food studies.
