This book is a collection of research focusing on the
anthropological aspects of how food is made in modern society from
both global and local perspectives. Modern food consumed in any
society is created in a variety of natural and cultural
environments. There is a "food democracy" in which how we procure
and share food can be an indicator of our participation in society,
while food nurtured in particular climates and land can be
transmitted to the outside world owing to the influence of tourism
and the global economy, a phenomenon that is recognized on a global
scale as exemplified by the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. In
other words, food is an aspect of both culture and civilization.
Anthropological approaches are used to reveal the humanistic
aspects of food, highlighting the strength and individuality of
regional and ethnic foods in global civilizations. The book is a
compilation of results from sessions of the international symposium
"Making Food in Human and Natural History", which took place on
March 18 and 19, 2019, in Osaka, Japan.
