The new issue of American Studies (Volume 57, number 3, published January 16, 2019) is out -- the "Food Issue" guest edited by Lauren Rabinovitz. The volume, with an introduction by Professor Rabinovitz, contains a heterogeneous mix of articles approaching food in American culture by considering the roles of food in immigration history and in histories of the counter-culture of the 1960s, representations of food in art and literature, food and popular culture, and takes on contemporary political concerns regarding slaughterhouses as factory food businesses and the sociological post-incarceration employment in food businesses.
