Drawing on relevant material from Egypt, Ireland, India, Ukraine, and other regions of the globe, The Aesthetics and Politics of Global Hunger is a rigorously comparative study made up of ten essays by well-established scholars from universities around the world. Since modernity, we have been inhabitants of a globe increasingly connected through discourses of equal access for all humans to the resources of the planet, but the volume emphasizes alongside this reality the flagrant politicization of those same resources. From this emphasis, the essays in the volume place into relief the idea that ideological and aesthetic discourses of hunger could inform ethical thinking and practices about who or what constitutes the figure of the modern historical human. 606 $aCulture?Study and teaching 606 $aCultural policy 606 $aHistoriography 606 $aPolitical economy 606 $aPolitical communication 606 $aCultural Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411130 606 $aCultural Policy and Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411120 606 $aMemory Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/711010 606 $aInternational Political Economy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140 606 $aPolitical Communication$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911030 615 0$aCulture?Study and teaching. 615 0$aCultural policy. 615 0$aHistoriography. 615 0$aPolitical economy. 615 0$aPolitical communication. 615 14$aCultural Theory. 615 24$aCultural Policy and Politics. 615 24$aMemory Studies. 615 24$aInternational Political Economy. 615 24$aPolitical Communication. 676 $a338.19 702 $aUlanowicz$b Anastasia$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aBasu$b Manisha$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910279579103321 996 $aThe Aesthetics and Politics of Global Hunger$91942971 997 $aUNINA
