Journal overview

Food, Culture and Society: An International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research is an international peer-reviewed publication dedicated to exploring the complex relationships among food, culture, and society from numerous disciplines in the humanities, social sciences, and sciences, as well as in the world of food beyond the academy. Diversity and inclusion are essential to the aims and scope of Food, Culture & Society.

• social construction of culinary practices, beliefs, and traditions

• methodological issues in the food studies
• malnutrition, hunger, and food security
• commodity chain and foodshed analysis
• food in fiction, film, and art
