This book delves into the intricate intersections of food, journalism, and politics, providing a critical examination of food media and journalism in the context of contemporary social challenges. Contributors analyze a range of current and historical examples, including Black Lives Matter, COVID-19, the environment, Brexit, and gender politics, to explore how food media and journalism navigate the complex terrain of nationalism, globalization, and social inequalities.

The volume challenges the notion that food media and journalism are trivial and apolitical by highlighting the profound ways in which storytelling about food has engaged public discourse in the past and continues to do so in innovative ways today. Drawing on the expertise of international scholars from diverse disciplines, including Journalism, Communication, Media Studies, Food Studies, Sociology, and Anthropology, this book offers valuable insights for scholars and students alike.

The book explores the ways in which food media and journalism shape public perceptions, influence policy decisions, and contribute to social change. It examines the commercialization of food culture, the role of celebrity chefs and food influencers, and the ways in which food media can perpetuate stereotypes and biases. Additionally, the book explores the potential of food media and journalism to promote diversity, sustainability, and social justice.

Through its comprehensive analysis, this book provides a valuable contribution to the field of media and communication studies, offering a deeper understanding of the complex relationships between food, journalism, and politics in the contemporary world. It serves as a call to action for media professionals, policymakers, and activists to recognize the political potential of food media and to work towards creating a more inclusive and equitable food system.
