        Qualities of food

        by Mark Harvey, Andrew McMeekin, Alan Warde

        In this book, the complexity and the significance of the foods we eat are analysed from a variety of perspectives, by sociologists, economists, geographers and anthropologists. Chapters address a number of intriguing questions: how do people make judgments about taste? How do such judgments come to be shared by groups of people?; what social and organisational processes result in foods being certified as of decent or proper quality? How has dissatisfaction with the food system been expressed? What alternatives are thought to be possible? The multi-disciplinary analysis of this book explores many different answers to such questions. The first part of the book focuses on theoretical and conceptual issues, the second part considers processes of formal and informal regulation, while the third part examines social and political responses to industrialised food production and mass consumption. Qualities of food will be of interest to researchers and students in all the social science disciplines that are concerned with food, whether marketing, sociology, cultural studies, anthropology, human nutrition or economics.

        The Eco-Balance on the Plate

        How What We Eat Can Protect the Climate

        by Dr. Malte Rubach

        How much CO₂ is emitted by one serving of spaghetti bolognese? About 1.5 kilograms! This example shows what the meat industry and food logistics mean for the eco-balance of our food. But is it enough to switch to meat-free and dairy-free alternatives or local specialities? Dr. Malte Rubach takes a closer look and reviews our food regime and its impact on our climate. We live in a society influenced by technology and the rising consumption of resources. Rubach argues for a sensible attitude to food and shows what we can still eat with a clear conscience.

        An Introduction to Philosophy of Library Science

        by Tang Liguang

        The mission of philosophy is to lead the trend of the times and history. The theoretical construction of philosophy of library science will also assume the historical responsibility of leading the development of contemporary library science theory and practice. This book takes Marx's practical materialism as the theoretical foundation, and examines the thinking mode and main issues of library philosophy, the view of practice and materialism, library dialectics, the labor of librarians and their alienation, the philosophical cultivation and creation of librarians, and such major theoretical issues including various contemporary issues, to a certain extent. Based on this, a theoretical framework based on practical materialism was attempted. This book is a comprehensive work written by the author on the basis of his works Study on Axiology of Library, Study on Ontology of Library,and Study on Epistemology of Library. It is suitable for all who care about library existence and development to read.

        Critical Philosophy of Race

        Ein Reader

        by Kristina Lepold, Marina Martinez Mateo

        Welche Art von Realität hat race? Welche Rolle spielen Wahrnehmungs- und Wissensformen bei ihrer Konstruktion? Was ist und wie funktioniert Rassismus? Das sind die zentralen Fragen, denen sich seit zwei Jahrzehnten das Forschungsfeld der Critical Philosophy of Race widmet, welches insbesondere in den USA wirkmächtige akademische und außerakademische Debatten angestoßen hat. Aber auch hierzulande ist die philosophische Beschäftigung mit race und Rassismus wichtig geworden, wie aktuelle Ereignisse und Diskussionen zeigen. Der Band stellt die noch junge Disziplin vor und präsentiert – zum Teil in deutscher Erstübersetzung – die einschlägigen Texte, u. a. von Kimberlé Crenshaw, Kwame Anthony Appiah, Tommie Shelby, Linda Martín Alcoff und Sally Haslanger.
