By documenting, analyzing, and interpreting the transformations in
the local diets of Asian peoples within the last hundred years,
this volume tries to pinpoint the consequences of the tension
between homogenization and cultural heterogenization, which is so
characteristic for today's global interaction. By focusing on Asian
foodways, the contributors demonstrate how the local and global
forces negotiate new hybrid lifestyles, how new commodities become
embedded in new cultures and how new identities are embraced
through the acceptance and rejection of new forms of consumption.
