The archaeologies of food and warfare have independently developed over the past several decades. This volume aims to provide concrete linkages between these research topics through the examination of case studies worldwide. Topics considered within the book include: the impacts of warfare on the daily food quest, warfare and nutritional health, ritual foodways and violence, the provisioning of warriors and armies, status-based changes in diet during times of war, logistical constraints on military campaigns, and violent competition over subsistence resources. The diversity of perspectives included in this volume may be a product of new ways of conceptualizing violence—not simply as an isolated component of a society, nor as an attribute of a particular societal type—but instead as a transformative process that is lived and irrevocably alters social, economic, and political organization and relationships. This book highlights this transformative process by presenting a cross-cultural perspective on the connection between war and food through the inclusion of case studies from several continents. .

"The world almost conquered famine. Until the 1980s, this scourge killed ten million people every decade, but by early 2000s mass starvation had all-but-disappeared. Today, famines are resurgent, driven by war, blockade, hostility to humanitarian principles, and a volatile global economy. In Mass Starvation, world-renowned expert on humanitarian crisis and response Alex de Waal, provides an authoritative history of modern famines: their causes, dimensions, and why they ended. He analyzes starvation as a crime, and breaks new ground in examining forced starvation as an instrument of genocide and war. Refuting the enduring but erroneous view that attributes famine to overpopulation and natural disaster, he shows how political decision or political failing is an essential element in every famine, while the spread of democracy and human rights, and the ending of wars, were major factors in the near-ending of this devastating phenomenon. Hard-hitting and deeply informed, Mass Starvation explains why man-made famine and the political decisions that could end it for good must once again become a top priority for the international community"--

Que mangeaient les hommes il y a dix mille ans ? Que mangeront les humains dans un siècle ? Comment et où sont apparus le feu, l’agriculture, l’élevage ? Que mangeaient les empereurs romains ? les empereurs chinois ? les rois de France ? Comment mangeaient leurs peuples ? Comment s’expliquent les interdits alimentaires de chaque religion ? Le cannibalisme a-t-il vraiment disparu ? Quels sont les liens entre la sexualité et l’alimentation ? Comment et où sont apparus les restaurants ? Qui a inventé la pizza ? Qui mange des insectes ? Des algues ? Que mangent les plus riches aujourd’hui ? Quels peuples se nourrissent le mieux sur la planète ? Pourra-t-on nourrir sainement dix milliards d’humains ? Serons-nous obligés de manger ce qu’une intelligence artificielle nous imposera ? Mangera-t-on encore ensemble demain ? Cette vaste fresque révèle comment nous sommes passés d’une nourriture variée, naturelle et abondante à des produits alimentaires standardisés, industriels et uniformisés, poisons pour l’homme et la nature. Elle nous dévoile la puissance immense, économique, idéologique et politique, de l’industrie agroalimentaire. Elle nous raconte aussi les liens méconnus entre la nourriture et la conversation, entre l’alimentation et le pouvoir, entre ce que nous mangeons et la géopolitique. Comprendre cette histoire est fondamental, si l’on veut prendre en main sa propre alimentation, manger sain et bon ; et sauver la nature, dont dépend la survie de l’humanité.

This book is a collection of articles studying various aspects of the relationship between town and countryside during the period from the Middle Ages to the nineteenth century. The focus is on how towns were supplied with basic foodstuffs, and especial attention is paid to the two most urbanized regions within the North Sea area: England and the Low Countries. Among the articles, several deal with the food-provisioning strategies of some of the major cities within that area - Antwerp, Ghent and London - and show among other things that large cities were unable to meet their requirements from local supplies and had consequently to access markets further afield. Important matters given substantial elucidation are transport costs and market integration.
