Food, Culture & Globalization: Prague

Catalog description

This course investigates current transformations in the food systems and cultures of Prague under conditions of globalization. A people's diet is dependent on their geography, although no people on earth eat everything edible in their environment, and they seek distant stimulants that their locales cannot support. Through lectures, readings, field trips students will master established facts and concepts about contemporary urban food cultures and produce new knowledge of the same.
