- Description
- This book highlights the materiality of global connections within conversations about migration and transnationalism. The chapters use food and related customs as a lens to examine how local experiences intersect with global influences. Food parcels provide an insightful starting point for studying relationships, intimacy, consumption, exchange, and other pivotal anthropological topics in various social and economic contexts.
