Sommario/riassunto

Die globalen Entwicklungen geben Anlass zu vorsichtigen Hoffnungen auf eine-zumindest virtuell-durch die Datenmobilität der elektronischen Netze verbundene Weltgesellschaft; sie erfordern jedoch auch eine kritische Beschäftigung mit dem Phänomen der zunehmenden Mobilität von Menschen, sei es politisch durch weltweite Wanderbewegungen der Migration, aufgrund von Kriegszuständen oder schlechter sozialer und wirtschaftlicher Bedingungen, sei es durch die extensive Reiselust gerade der deutschen Bevölkerung, die zu neuen Welterfahrungen wie zu verkehrs- und umweltpolitischen Fragen führt. Mobilität zwischen Reiselust und neuen Anforderungen der Arbeitswelt, zwischen Umweltproblemen und globaler Kommunikation, zwischen räumlicher Veränderung, z.B. durch die Osterweiterung der Europäischen Union, und künstlerischer Horizonterweiterung-der neue Band der 'Problemkreise der Angewandten Kulturwissenschaft' behandelt aus interdisziplinärer Perspektive das Spektrum der Mobilität



in einer globalisierten Welt und zeigt auch die Relativität der eurozentrischen Position in einer globalen Welt, denn-wie es der Eröffnungsbeitrag von Hermann Lübbe bereits im Titel anmerkt-der Globus hat kein Zentrum.

Global developments give rise to cautious hopes for a world society at least virtually linked to the data mobility of electronic networks. However, they also require a critical examination of the phenomenon of increasing mobility of people, be it politically through worldwide migration of migrants, because of war or poor social and economic conditions, or because of the extensive desire to travel, especially the German population, to new world experiences as leading to transport and environmental issues. Mobility between desire to travel and new demands of the world of work, between environmental problems and global communication, between spatial change, e.g. through the eastern enlargement of the European Union, and artistic broadening of horizons The new volume of the problem areas of applied cultural studies treats the spectrum of mobility in a globalized world from an interdisciplinary perspective and also shows the relativity of the Eurocentric position in a global world, because as the opening article by Hermann Lübbe notes in the title - the globe has no center.

Sommario/riassunto

This book explores the relationship between prehistoric people and their food - what they ate, why they ate it and how researchers have pieced together the story of past foodways from material traces. Contemporary human food traditions encompass a seemingly infinite variety, but all are essentially strategies for meeting basic nutritional needs developed over millions of years. Humans are designed by evolution to adjust our feeding behaviour and food technology to meet



the demands of a wide range of environments through a combination of social and experiential learning. In this book, Kristen J. Gremillion demonstrates how these evolutionary processes have shaped the diversification of human diet over several million years of prehistory. She draws on evidence extracted from the material remains that provide the only direct evidence of how people procured, prepared, presented and consumed food in prehistoric times.
