Exploring Food and Urbanism delves into the intricate connections between food and cities across a wide range of global locations. The book's focus shifts from examining transformations in feeding the city and its surrounding areas in Istanbul, Turkey, to exploring the challenges faced by neighborhoods struggling with food access in Blantyre, Malawi. It also explores the complexities of creating convivial public food spaces in Cairo. Furthermore, the book delves into everyday buying practices in Islamabad food markets, shedding light on broader shifts in food cultures within Pakistan. Additionally, it examines the potential for growing food in suburban Cape Town, South Africa, and explores the possibilities of sharing meals using online methods to bring cooks and eaters together across the Netherlands.
This edited volume underscores the crucial role of food in sustainable urbanism across cities, encompassing kitchens, gardens, food markets, food shops, streets, squares, neighborhoods, cities, suburbs, and hinterlands. It highlights the close intertwining of food cultures, practices, and economics with the planning and design of places, although this connection is often overlooked. The editors of the book conclude that food has the potential to contribute significantly to addressing the challenges posed by the worsening climate emergency by prioritizing sustainable urbanism.
The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Urbanism, further emphasizing the importance of this topic in urban studies and planning.
