Eat Here Now! Why the Anthropology of Restaurants Matters
In the last few decades, anthropologists have focused an increasing amount of attention on restaurants. The study of restaurants is not unique to anthropology, and anthropologists arrived relatively late to a field that has been largely dominated by historians, economists, sociologists, and others. What distinct insights has anthropology brought to the study of restaurants? How has that research contributed to the transformation of the anthropolo…
Culture-as-Race or Culture-as-Culture: Caribbean Ethnicity and the Ambiguity of Cultural Identity in French Society
Creole Italian: Sicilian Immigrants and the Shaping of New Orleans Food Culture
Food: Location, Location, Location
This article examines the question of why local food has become, for many activists and scholars, a core concept for understanding food systems and globalization and for challenging systems of injustice and inequality. I begin with the French concept of terroir, which is often translated as the "taste of place," and examine why this term, part of France's cultural common sense, is difficult to implement in other places. I then consider efforts to…

Culture-as-Race or Culture-as-Culture: Cultural Identity in French Society
“Yes, but aren’t these people black?” This is perhaps the most common question Americans ask about my research among West Indian activists in Paris and Martinique. It is asked in a tone that suggests that the answer itself is obvious and, more than that, that the questions I ask about West Indian claims to identity would be almost moot if I were to just get that answer through my head. This question has always confused me

The major conferences held in the Fall of 1984 at the N.Y.U. Institute of French Studies
A rapid look through French headlines of the past two years cannot but leave one with the idea that there is something not quite right with the socialists approach to political power. In a series of local elections and then in the recent European elections, the French left has consistently lost supporters
Paris is Not Responding: Views on the French Condition, Colloquia at New York University’s Institute of French Studies, Spring, 1985
When the Socialists arrived in power in 1981, the word of the day was changement, and the people dancing in the streets of Paris seemed to indicate an exuberant optimism for the political and economic future. Now, with the 1986 legislative elections approaching, the Right seems almost certain to win; public opinion appears to have swung against the Left in power. If people take to the streets today, whether they be angry parents d’élèves or worke…
