Slow Food is an international organization that links the love of food with community, political, and environmental support. Based on long-term ethnographic fieldwork inside Slow Food's international headquarters in Italy, Valeria Siniscalchi reveals what really goes on behind the scenes of this enigmatic organization. Observing daily meetings, decision-making processes, and major events, she explores the contradictions, complexities, and ambiguities of the movement--as well as the passionate commitment of its employees, members, and leaders. Through talking to insiders and people who have "broken" with Slow Food, Siniscalchi makes a major contribution to our understanding of one of the most high profile and controversial food movements in the world--and to our knowledge of activist organizations more broadly--back cover. 610 20 $a Slow Food (Organization) $1 https://isni.org/isni/0000000122598451 650 0 $a Slow food movement. 650 0 $a Gastronomy. 650 6 $a Slow Food (Mouvement) 650 6 $a Gastronomie. 650 7 $a gastronomy. $2 aat 610 27 $a Slow Food (Organization) $2 fast 650 7 $a Gastronomy. $2 fast 650 7 $a Slow food movement. $2 fast 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781474282345 941 $a 1 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20240405024545.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A6AF0E5AF31211EEA2A0228A4CECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
