CFP: Culinary Cultures on the Move

The editors of the journal Verge: Studies in Global Asias invite contributions for its upcoming Issue 9.2. Submissions are due by May 15, 2022.

The Verge editors invite papers on transnational flows (both imaginary and real), border making and breaking, culinary heritages and innovations, techniques and technologies, and the relationships between the production, distribution and consumption of food in Asia and its multiple diasporas. They welcome projects that approach the study of food contextually and that highlight the intersectional and cross-disciplinary implications of spaces and movements of bodies, dead or alive, as produce, product or terminus. Theoretical explorations on the shifting grounds of the intersection of disciplines are also welcome.

Essays (between 6,000-10,000 words) and abstracts (125 words) should be submitted electronically to [email protected].
