Food: In Context is a collection of entries on topics designed to provide an introduction to the global diversity of viewpoints on a broad array of food related issues. In addition to life-and-death decisions reflecting the fundamental importance of food, policies related to food issues both reflect and shape societies, social justice, and social change.
