Description
💖 Fooooooood 💖 🍎 In this episode, Robbie, Nora, and Costa take a closer look at food 🍌 How can we look at food? And how can we look at food through an STS (Science and Technology Studies) lens? We discuss various aspects of food, including food production, our relations to food, food waste, and many more! What can we learn about societies and humans when looking at our relation to food ❓ Also, we try to discover some recent trends within the topics of food production and consumption 🌟 In order to gain more insights, we explore different angles, theories, and concepts from STS and beyond. We discuss Langdon Winner’s article “Do Artefacts Have Politics?”, a chapter from the STS Handbook, and Sheila Jasanoff’s notion of “co-production”.
