Despite all their differences, consumers in each major city are drawn to a similar atmosphere: rough wooden tables in postindustrial interiors lit by edison bulbs. There, they enjoy single-origin coffee, kombucha, and artisanal bread. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is 'Global Brooklyn, ' a new transnational aesthetic regime of urban consumption. It may look shabby and improvised, but it is all carefully designed. It may romance the analog, but is made to be Instagrammed. It often references the New York borough, but is shaped by many networked locations where consumers participate in the global circulation of styles, flavors, practices, and values. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book follows this phenomenon across different world cities, arguing for a stronger appreciation of design and materialities in understanding food cultures. Attentive to local contexts, struggles, and identities, contributors explore the global mobility of aesthetic, ethical, and entrepreneurial projects, and how they materialize in everyday practices on the ground. They describe new connections among eating, drinking, design, and communication in order to give a clearer sense of the contemporary transformations of food cultures around the world.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFabio Parasecoli\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Food Studies in the Department of Nutrition and Food Studies, New York University, USA. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eMateusz Halawa \u003c\/b\u003eis based at the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology at the Polish Academy of Sciences, Poland.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 216\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 9.2 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 14, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51787445764384,"sku":"9781350144460","price":62.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/c86e3e5d45a63ae1c872232a30e25e8a.webp?v=1780650070","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/global-brooklyn-designing-food-experiences-in-world-cities-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
