The interrelations between accounting and food have been hitherto
neglected at an international level. This regret is particularly
meaningful with regards to Italy, where 'Food', besides being a
physiological need to satisfy, is one of the main pillars of the
'Made in Italy' Industry, and the so-called Italian life-style,
which has become a part of the popular culture. Accounting and Food
seeks to explore the accounting, business and financial history of
some of the most prestigious Italian food producers. Moreover,
given that "Food" has been at the center of production and trade
throughout the history of mankind, food production and commerce
will be investigated from the critical angles of accounting,
accountants and merchants. Relatedly, the interconnected history of
the Food fairs and expositions of the major Italian trade centers
will be also unveiled. Accounting and Food examines the role of
accounting, accountants and merchants in food production and
international trade (e.g., grain, wine, etc...) as well as
considering the history of food producers, paying particular
attention to the role played by women entrepreneurs over time.
Finally the book explores the interrelations of accounting, food
and state, local authorities and social institutions, in particular
in so far these latter institutions were involved in the Political
economy, regulation, allocation and distribution of food to
populations and societies. Accounting and Food will be of
particular interest to researches and scholars in the field of
accounting history but also to those working in the areas of
regional development, regional economics, food and sociology and
other related disciplines.
