GEOG 43 Food and Power

In a world glutted with food, why do millions still suffer chronic hunger? In an international community committed to free trade, why is food the most common source of trade wars and controversies? In a country where less than five percent of the population farms, why does the "farm lobby" remain so politically powerful? In societies where food has never been faster or more processed, why are organic and "slow" foods in such demand? These are among the questions this course will consider, drawing on the insights of both political economy and cultural analysis.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
