Unit description Unit description
In the twenty first century there is a newly emerging intensity to discussions around food and eating. From the rise of consumer and farmer movements organising around critiques of the industrialised systems of food production on the future ecological sustainability to the growing focus on food and cuisine in the media and other culture industries, the question of how and what we eat has become a key topic for public debate around new understandings of the self, the nation, the environment and the planet. In this course we will examine the sociological and political dimensions of food from both consumption and production perspectives. Topics will include: the benefits and perils of the modern food system and culinary modernism; food security and food scarcity; food in moral economies; the fast food industry and its critics; ethical eating practices; food and cultural heritage; food and migration; and food in the media and popular culture.

Attendance and Participation

Due: Ongoing
Weighting: 20%

All internal students are expected to participate at both lectures and tutorials.  Internal students are also expected to come prepared for discussion in tutorials by reading the required readings before hand. 

SOC302 is structured around weekly key topics.  Every lecture provides you with discussions and materials designed to help you think and reflect about the topic through a sociological lens.

Based on the lecture material and the readings, the tutorial is the space where you learn to broaden and fine-tune your analytical skills.  Each week, you must:

  • prepare for the tutorial discussion by completing the assigned reading,
  • write a brief summary of the reading’s key points and arguments, and
  • formulate a discussion question.

By experience, we find that written preparation facilitates verbal contributions to class discussions.  I will be looking for remarks and questions that engage thoughtfully with the readings and with the issues raised by them in relation to course themes.

Contributions from external students made on the discussion boards will be graded on both regularity, but more importantly quality. Questions for discussion based on the readings will be posted up onto the discussion boards each week.  You are expected to have read the required readings and to respond to them.   Participation for external students will be evaluated based on the following:

  1. post your contributions and responses to the readings on the SOC302 iLearn website in the appropriate external student discussion forum.
  2. post within a week after the lecture (Friday morning). These forums will be open for one week only. They will open on the Friday of each of the teaching weeks and close on the following Saturday.
  3. your posts need to share and discuss with other external students the key idea and arguments of the weekly lectures/readings and articulate how these elements offer a sociological understanding to the weekly topic. If you cannot make sense of the concepts and ideas developed in the lectures or readings, don’t hesitate to submit your questions to the group. Learning can also be a group experience.

 


On successful completion you will be able to:
  • Understand how the everyday activities of cooking and eating are associated with or stem from broader cultural, political and economic dynamics.
  • Gain insight into the ways in which the analysis of food and eating offers an additional perspective to the broader sociological concerns such as: self and the family; multiculturalism and national identity; gender and class; contemporary social movements; political economy of production; moral economies and consumption practices of everyday life.
  • Understand and critically analyse key debates around food security and ecological sustainability in the contemporary context from the perspective of both producers and consumers of food.
  • Apply and adapt sociological knowledge to real world issues.
  • Enhance the student communication and interpersonal skills through oral discussion and written work that focuses on articulating knowledge and transformation in a clear and concise fashion.
  • Develop problem-solving skills through this unit's focus on applying and adapting sociological knowledge to real world problems
  • Reinforce critical analysis and creative thinking skills through research assignments, class projects and paper presentation.

Madeleines: We are What We Ate *

Food is more than an amalgam of biochemical nutrients. What we eat has enormous significance as a medium for personal recollection and collective identity.  In this exercise, you are asked to reflect on a food that is especially laden with emotional, autobiographical and symbolic importance to you ­ – your equivalent of the tiny cake (Madeleine) that sparked French novelist Marcel Proust’s seven-volume classic, Remembrance of Things Past (1913-1926).

Read the except from Proust (posted on the iLearn site) then think hard about your own personal Madeleine.  It may be anything – from a full meal to a packaged snack – as long as it is edible.  Try to taste it before writing.  In 500-750 words (maximum), describe your Madeleine and the images, associations and memories it conjures up. These images do not have to be positive, by the way.  Describe, also, how you encountered this memory – for example, by chance or by will.  You can also try classifying your Madeleine:

  • Is it positive, negative, or somewhere in between (bittersweet)?
  • Is it a comfort food or a discomfort food? A medium for conflict or reunion?
  • Is it homemade or commercial?
  • Is it a demographic ‘marker’ of ethnicity, region, generation, gender, religion, or class?
  • Does eating this food make you feel part of a group? Exclude you from other groups?

For further examples of the creative use of food memories:

*(This exercise has been adapted from Warren Belasco’s 2008. Food: Key Concepts. Berg. p. 26. It is used here as a kind of ‘icebreaker’ for discussion and as a window onto some themes in the course)


On successful completion you will be able to:
  • Understand how the everyday activities of cooking and eating are associated with or stem from broader cultural, political and economic dynamics.
  • Gain insight into the ways in which the analysis of food and eating offers an additional perspective to the broader sociological concerns such as: self and the family; multiculturalism and national identity; gender and class; contemporary social movements; political economy of production; moral economies and consumption practices of everyday life.
  • Understand and critically analyse key debates around food security and ecological sustainability in the contemporary context from the perspective of both producers and consumers of food.
  • Apply and adapt sociological knowledge to real world issues.
  • Enhance the student communication and interpersonal skills through oral discussion and written work that focuses on articulating knowledge and transformation in a clear and concise fashion.
  • Develop problem-solving skills through this unit's focus on applying and adapting sociological knowledge to real world problems
  • Reinforce critical analysis and creative thinking skills through research assignments, class projects and paper presentation.

Research Paper

Due: 08/05/2019 (Week 9)
Weighting: 40%

A list of essay questions will be distributed prior to the mid-semester break.  The objective of this research paper (2000 words) is that you engage in depth with one of the questions.  Alternatively, you may develop your own topic subject to your tutor’s approval.  Just as your paper will engage with the course readings, we also expect your research to extend to further reading and scholarship outside from the course material.  However, bear in mind that you must apply a sociological perspective when discussing your research.

As a general rule, this assignment will be assessed on the demonstration of knowledge (understanding the key ideas/concepts and their interrelationships), how well it is applied to the discussion (in other words, the ability to explain and engage with sociological analysis to critically reflect on the chosen topic), and how well the discussion is presented (clear writing expression).


On successful completion you will be able to:
  • Understand how the everyday activities of cooking and eating are associated with or stem from broader cultural, political and economic dynamics.
  • Gain insight into the ways in which the analysis of food and eating offers an additional perspective to the broader sociological concerns such as: self and the family; multiculturalism and national identity; gender and class; contemporary social movements; political economy of production; moral economies and consumption practices of everyday life.
  • Understand and critically analyse key debates around food security and ecological sustainability in the contemporary context from the perspective of both producers and consumers of food.
  • Apply and adapt sociological knowledge to real world issues.
  • Enhance the student communication and interpersonal skills through oral discussion and written work that focuses on articulating knowledge and transformation in a clear and concise fashion.
  • Develop problem-solving skills through this unit's focus on applying and adapting sociological knowledge to real world problems
  • Reinforce critical analysis and creative thinking skills through research assignments, class projects and paper presentation.

Delivery and Resources

Lecture will be held on Fridays 11am-1pm.  The classroom is: 12SW 310 (formerly C5A).

All lectures (not films) will be recorded on echo360 and made available on the iLearn site to assist with review of course material. This should not be considered a substitute for lecture attendance.  Lecture slides will also be available on the iLearn site for review.

See timetable for tutorial times.

Internal Students: This course entails both lectures and tutorials. It is expected that you attend BOTH and we will keep a record of attendance in both lectures and tutorials.  We will be inviting a number of guest lecturers into this course and therefore it is especially important that you all attend lectures regularly.  The course has been set up and especially designed to allow you to  have plenty of opportunities to ask questions in class and to have a really good dialogue with the lecturers and other class participants. It's a fun class!

Teaching staff do of course understand that under extenuating circumstances students may not be able to attend a lecture.  In such cases special consideration may be pursued and staff will also undertake to accommodate a student’s circumstances.

Films screened in class are an important part of this course and their content may be assessed in the final take home exam

 

External Students must respond each week to set questions in the external forum on the SOC 302 ilearn site. These responses will be graded on quality as well as regularity. The forums will be open for one week only . External students  therefore  must make their contributions to the discussion questions and the set readings each week.
