Taste | Power | Tradition - Geographical Indications as Cultural Property
BücherAngebote / Angebote:
The idea of origin in terms of space and culture as a special indicator of quality is one of the most in¿uential strands in contemporary food. It impacts on politics, economics and everyday life - and it connects these ¿elds with complex relations of power and culture. With geographical indications, the EU offers an instrument which allows for the declaration of specialties, quali¿ed by their tradition, as typical for a de¿ned area. The declaration serves to protect these products as intellectual and collective property and presents them as culinary heritage, thereby enabling sale at an added value. Accordingly, the EU instrument of geographical indications evokes the interests of a variety of disciplines, such as (agricultural) economics, (social) geography, sociology, anthropology and law. Nonetheless, dialogue and cooperation among the disciplines are quite rare. "Taste | Power | Tradition" gives an insight into this multidisciplinary debate and brings together empirical data and theoretical re¿ections from different perspectives.This work was published by Saint Philip Street Press pursuant to a Creative Commons license permitting commercial use.
