描述 | .Health Without Bodies.?invites readers on an ethnographic exploration of?the?boundary between food and medicine.?Food-related?health claims are governed?in the EU?as voluntary statements on food labels to help consumers make ‘informed choices’. This poses an interesting problem: when claims refer to health, one can no longer ignore that consumers have bodies. Asking how these claims have become possible?as a new kind of truth-statement?on the market,?this book reveals the contours of a fundamental tension between what is expected from consumers in a liberal market economy, and how food and the body come to trouble those expectations.?In doing so, it.?.illuminates?why the difference between food and medicine is such a sensitive issue, and why seemingly trivial health claims?have been?subject to so much debate and political control..Afterword by Isabelle Stengers.. |
