Excellent- More about Children, Food and Nature: Organising Meals in Schools
This book explores how recent healthy meals policies affect children's practices in the UK and Italy, using a Science, Technology, and Society (STS) perspective. It examines the connections and disconnections that food makes with children's bodies, other animals, and plants, and how these connections are enacted in children's food practices. The book offers insights into the complexities of children's learning about food and the bio-politics around school meals in the UK and Italy, and is essential reading for scholars, policy makers, and practitioners working in food studies, education, children and youth studies, environmental studies, and dietry studies.

Children and young people's food practices and lifestyles have become increasingly visible and contested in recent years, with increased public and media debate surrounding their health, leisure, and dietary activities. This has led to a number of recent policy initiatives aimed at improving the quality and healthiness of meals offered in schools. However, little is known about how these policies affect children's food habits and how they intervene in their knowledge, thinking, and feelings about food and its origins. This book offers a groundbreaking and comparative research-based study on how recent healthy meals policies are affecting children's practices in the UK and Italy. By examining the trajectories of connections and disconnections that food makes with children's bodies, other animals, and plants, and by exploring how these connections are enacted in children's food practices, the book provides insights into the complexities of children's learning about food and the bio-politics around school meals in the UK and Italy. The book advances the food consumption literature and school meals agenda and is essential reading for scholars, policy makers, and practitioners working in food studies, education, children and youth studies, environmental studies, and dietry studies.
