Department of Anthropology STUDY DESIGN Goldsmiths College This study was designed to complement phase 1 - which was located in an urban area - and University of London to provide comparative dara. Accordingly it was based in a small town in west Wales and London SE 14 6NW in its rural hinterland. The same research approaches and variety of methods were used as tel: +44 (0)1719197803 for phase 1. The only differences/additions were (a) to include both Welsh and English­ speaking people amongst the interviewees in the cross-section of the general population (b) Contact interview a sample of tOurists during the holiday season, and (c) arrange for local school Professor Caplan children to complete a questionnaire. Participant observation in this second phase meant joining the distinctively local associations, Duration of research including the Women's Institute, Wine Club, and Gardening Club. The researcher also February 1994 - January 1996 participated in a wide range ofevents which included food: coffee mornings/evenings, local festivals and carnivals, agricultural'shows, fairs and fetes, and fund-raising events. Matching phase 1, it is noted that patterns of diet are complex, and cannot always be correlated in any simple way with factors such as ethnicity, class, or age, although these are important. So, in phase 2 they have also been considered in the context of household composition and organisation, time and money budgets, and cultural notions about what constitutes 'good food' and health. MAIN FINDINGS There have been significant changes in diets and availability of foodstuffs in this area during this century, and particularly over the last twenty-five years. Self-sufficiency is no longer widespread. Now both rural-dwellers and townsfolk buy virtually all their food, except for members of the 'alternative' communities, many ofwhom seek to practise as great a degree of self-sufficiency as possible. In addition to the town's variety ofsmall food shops, there are small supermarkets a half an hour's drive away. A large branch ofTesco has recently opened in a nearby larger town, significantly affecting shopping patterns. Over the last twenty years, a number of wholefooel shops have also sprung up in the area, primarily to serve the alternative community, but these are increasingly used by local residents too. The 'proper meal', which has to be cooked from at least some raw ingredients, remains both an important ideal and is also adhered to by the vast majority of informants at least once a day, although the 'Sunday dinner' is less significant for those under 40 than for older informants. For the majority, a proper meal should include meat in some form, although there were a number of vegetarians among our informants, not all of whom 'alternatives'. And some people have adopted pasta dishes and even curries and Chinese food. On the whole, however, older residents tend to be resistant to such changes, on the grounds that 'you don't know what's in them'. (continued overleaf) ESRC Research Programme On The Nation's Diet This area is one with a high incidence of coronary heart disease and other diet-related diseases, and has be.en targeted for healthy eating advice through campaigns such as 'Heart-beat Wales'. Local people are not unaware of such advice, but the extent to which they are willing to adopt it varies. Many are highly sceptical, stating that experts are 'constantly changing their minds', so that 'if you listened to them, you'd never eat anything would you?' People also frequently cite the diet of their parents and grandparents, which was high in fat (particularly fatty bacon), arguing that 'it never did them any harm', and that most lived to ripe old age. Many farming households thus still eat a diet which is high in fat and sugar. There are strong cultural reasons for this, including conventions of hospitality and sociability. Economic constraints also play a part in ability to adopt 'healthy eating': fruit and vegetables available locally are relatively expensive. Families on low incomes, especially those with children, or farming families with workers to feed, have often of necessity to choose inexpensive ways of eating, which risk high intakes of fat. Nonetheless, dietary changes for health reasons are apparent in this part of Wales, including for instance: • Those living an 'alternative' lifestyle have ideological, as well as health reasons for conforming quite closely to current dietary guidelines. Many have moved from cities to this area to seek a new life-style, part of which includes a wholefood, organic, and perhaps vegetarian or vegan diet. • There is a significant tourist industry in the area, together with catering facilities to service it. Some of these include establishments offering a 'Welsh cuisine' which has, effectively, been 'invented' over the last twenty-five years, drawing on 'traditional' dishes and locally available items. Tourists themselves often seek out an 'authentic', regional cuisine, as well as foods which contain nostalgic associations. Such food is considered as a 'treat' and particularly suitable for the 'release' of holiday eating, as opposed to the 'control' which is more suitable for everyday life at home, and which frequently includes concerns about healthy eating. This dichotomy lends further weight to the notion that there continues to be a perceived discrepancy between eating 'good food' and 'food which is good for you'. CONCLUSIONS We draw the same conclusions from this phase of the study as for phase 1. In particular, we stress that our study of some of the social relations involved in purchase, preparation and consumption of food, shows that what people eat is not only based upon individual choices and preferences, but is formed and constrained by circumstances which are essentially social and cultural.

In order to do this it was considered important to situate food choices in their social and cultural context. The first project (Phase I) was set in Lewisham, an urban area of London, whereas the second project (Phase II) was designed to provide comparative data with Phase I, which was located in an rural area of Wales. Summary of aims and objectives To accumulate new information on food choices in Britain and the processes - social, cultural, political and economic - which lead to such choices in a diversity of settings, and in a rapidly changing situation. To encourage greater understanding of people's ideas about the relationship between food and health which may prove of practical use in seeking to improve diet and therefore morbidity and mortality rates. To refine anthropological theory and methodology in the area of food and diet by combining the approaches of political economy and cultural analysis, and by working at the micro-level, but situating the research in a much broader political, economic and geographical, as well as historical context. To demonstrate the value of anthropological analysis, especially the importance of symbolism, categorisation, and social relationships in the understanding of people's choice of diet. Study Design This study was located in a small town in west Wales and its rural hinterland. A variety of methods was used in this research, including open-ended, semi-structured interviews with both general informants and with retail, catering and health professionals. General informants included men and women of all ages, both Welsh and English-speaking, from middle and working class backgrounds. In addition, during the holiday season, a sample of tourists was interviewed. Selected local informants also kept 7-day food diaries, and filled in food frequency questionnaires, and a questionnaire was also filled out by local school children. The researcher, Dr. Janice Williams, also engaged in participant observation by joining several local associations, including the Women's Institute,

Ethnobiology is a relatively young science with many blank areas still in its landscape, which is, perhaps, good motivation to write a synthetic text aimed at bridging the existing gaps. At this stage, however, an exhaustive representation of materials relevant to the ethnobiology of Georgia would be an insurmountable task for one author. My goal, rather, is to provide students and researchers with an introduction to my country’s ethnobiology. This book, therefore, is about the key traditions that have developed over a long history of interactions between humans and nature in Georgia, as documented by modern ethnobiologists. Acknowledgements: I am grateful to my colleagues – Rainer Bussmann, Narel Paniagua Zambrana, David Kikodze and Shalva Sikharulidze for the exciting and fruitful discussions about ethnobiology, and their encouragement for pushing forth this project. Rainer Bussmann read the early draft of this text and I am grateful for his valuable comments. Special thanks are due to Jana Ekhvaia, for her crucial contribution as project coordinator and I greatly appreciate the constant support from the staff and administration of Ilia State University. Finally, I am indebted to my fairy wordmother, Kate Hughes whose help was indispensable at the later stages of preparation of this manuscript. 2 Table of contents Preface.......................................................................................................................................................... 2 Chapter 1.

  • International Cuisines IHM Notes
    International Cuisines Great Britain (British Cuisine) History Although the British Empire occupied once a quarter of the world’s land, had a quarter of the globe’s population, and is responsible for the industrial revolution, its cuisine has been described as a simple and even very poor. However most of these comments have more to do with the stereotype of British food as boil meat and vegetables. This is not British food, and never has been! The climate and the fact that it is an island affected the cuisine. From the warm climate of the south, to the cooler north. Golden wheat fields, and the fat cows of Jersey England produces amongst the finest produce available anywhere in the world. During the British Empire era, ingredients and cooking concepts were brought from the European countries with which Britain interacted, as well as from as far afield as The Americas, India and Asia and were incorporated widely into British food. The Britain saw the beginnings of World Cuisine as we know it today. While Escoffier, is considered by many the "Father of modern Cuisine" it is largely forgotten that he spent a large part of his working life working in English kitchens. And that many of his best remembered recipes were created at the Savoy and Ritz hotels in London. While it is also true that World Cuisine largely passed Britain for decades after the Second World War due largely to the heavy rationing still in place well after the war ended (in fact it finally finished altogether as late as 1954).

  • A Materialist Critique of Critical Balkanologies
    A MATERIALIST CRITIQUE OF CRITICAL BALKANOLOGIES RADE ZINAIC A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTORATE OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAMME IN SOCIAL AND POLITICAL THOUGHT YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO MAY 2015 © Rade Zinaic, 2015 ABSTRACT The post-Cold War era from 1991 to the present is defined by two interrelated processes: (a) the political, social, and economic consequences of neoliberalization; and (b) a settled and universalizing cultural response to the materialities of this process. The institutional entrenchment of post-structuralist reading techniques provided a generation of critical balkanologists with the tools to successfully undo essentialist readings of the region; readings that define an era of denigrative balkanism where the causes of neoliberal war in the post- Yugoslav milieu are seen as problems of cultural invariance. Drawing on a Marxist theoretical tradition that centres the work of Teresa Ebert, I discover that these techniques are limited by an epistemology that fetishizes the “commodity” of the sign and an ontology that assumes the existence of little more than single individuals in civil society. Thus emergent and oppositional solidarities are incapable of being granted their experience. Critical balkanologies nonetheless marginalize and balkanize the physics of neoliberalism at precisely the moment of their violent ubiquity through dystopic worlds of ethereal imaginariums, impossibly complex Others or sentimental cyber-utopias – all in the place of class consciousness. Balkanism cannot be abolished via the scholastic unsettling of signs, but through intellectual accompaniment in protracted class struggles by (sub)proletarians against a capitalist mode of production that exploits and atomizes them, thus leaving them materially susceptible to nefarious conceptions of what it means to be human.

Yet, like other ethnic minorities in Wales, they have been neglected in academic enquiry, with the history of immigration to Britain being traditionally addressed in an Anglo- centric perspective. This thesis aims to fill this academic gap and provide an original historical contribution to migration studies. In so doing, it primarily aims to disclose two under-investigated areas of investigation; firstly, small-town, rural and geographically dispersed patterns of migration and, secondly, migration to stateless nations.
