We do this through case studies from 'affluent' and 'developing' countries. These contributions will shed light on global food connections and show how global, industrialized food and fodder systems have changed the way we relate to animals, their meat, and what kind of animals’ meat we eat. In the past few years, controversies around meat have arisen around industrialization and globalization of meat production, often pivoting around health, environmental problems, and animal welfare issues. Although meat increasingly figures as a problem, most consumers’ knowledge of animal husbandry and meat is more absent than ever. How is meat produced today, and where? How do we consume meat, and how have our consumption habits changed? Why have these changes occurred, and what are the social and cultural consequences of these changes? This book takes the reader on a geographic, ethnographic and historical journey to rural and urban areas and arenas across the world, and tells a series of stories of the dramatic changes in meat consumption.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: New Meat Engagements: Cultures, Geographies, Economies\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArve Hansen and Karen Lykke Syse \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Ritual Loss Of Life And Loss Of Living Rituals: On Judicialization Of Slaughter And Denial Of Animal Death\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKaren Lykke Syse and Kristian Bjørkdahl \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: New Geographies Of Global Meatification: The BRICS In The Industrial Meat Complex\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArve Hansen, Jostein Jakobsen and Ulrikke Wethal\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4: From Pastures To Feedlots, From Beef To Soybeans: Changing Meat Cultures In Argentina\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKristi Anne Stølen\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Meating Demand in China: Changes in Chinese Meat Cultures Through Time\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMarius Korsnes and Chen Liu\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6: ­­Eating A Capitalist Transformation: Economic Development, Culinary Hybridisation And Changing Meat Cultures In Vietnam \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArve Hansen\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Bovine Contradictions: The Politics Of (De)Meatification And Hindutva Hegemony In Neoliberal India\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJostein Jakobsen and Kenneth Bo Nielsen\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 8: Reconnecting life and death in the British alternative halal meat movement\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHibba Mazhary\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 9: Meat We Don’t Greet: How ‘Sausages’ Can Free Pigs Or How Effacing Livestock Makes Room For Emancipation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSophia Efstathiou\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 10: What Happens When Cultured Meat Meets Meat Culture?
