Food, Culture and Society
Warren Belasco reports that
Food, Culture and Society in 2004 became the new name for
The Journal for the Study of Food and Society, the official publication of the Association for the Study of Food and Society (ASFS), a multidisciplinary international organization dedicated to exploring the complex relationships among food, culture, and society. Its members approach the study of food from numerous disciplines in the humanities, social sciences, and sciences, as well as in the world of food beyond the academy. Striving to represent the highest standards of research and scholarship in all aspects of food studies, vigorous debate on a wide range of topics and problems is encouraged.
Two issues per year are published. Submissions of articles are not limited to ASFS members. Submitted manuscripts should report original work not previously published, nor in press or under consideration for publication elsewhere. Papers should be submitted via email, in Word, using a recognized citation format. Manuscripts will receive a blind peer review by members of the ASFS Board of Editors and ad hoc referees, with a speedy and collegial review process promised.
For more information, contact Warren Belasco, c/o American Studies Dept., University of Maryland Baltimore County, Baltimore, MD 21250; (202) 291-4756; belasco@umbc.edu.
