“…Colloquially dubbed "the local food movement," it is comprised of several objectives, including reducing greenhouse gas emissions, opposing large food corporations and retail chains, strengthening family and community bonds through food preparation and sharing, and supporting local farmers (Martinez, 2010). In addition, food can often be seen as an emblem of national identity and the image of local food, counterpoised against a faceless globalizing culture, can influence consumer behavior (Raento, 2010).…”

Greenhouses are a frequent feature on the Icelandic rural landscape and an integral part of Iceland's food system. Iceland's reserves of geothermal energy present an opportunity to extend an otherwise short growing season. This promotes sustainability, increases food security, and benefits consumers. This article examines the relative strengths of Iceland's greenhouse sectorusing a combination of statistics, observations, and interviews to understand the resource demands of greenhouse agriculture, how well greenhouses can allay some food insecurity and provide local foods. It ends with an examination of how the reduction of subsidies used to keep greenhouse agriculture going, has had an effect and forces the question of whether losing much of Iceland's agricultural sector and locally sourced food is worth the social and political costs.

“…La gastrodiplomacia es una práctica política que se sirve de la cocina nacional con el objetivo de aumentar el poder de atracción de un determinado país (Rockower, 2012). Forma parte de la diplomacia cultural (Chapple-Sokol 2013) y ha sido utilizada en diversos procesos donde la construcción de la nación está en juego: conformación de la comunidad europea (Raenton 2010); descomposición de Yugoslavia (Vezovnik y Tominc 2019); creación del estado de Israel (Ranta y Prietò-Piastro 2019). Como toda diplomacia, la gastrodiplomacia se orienta a la creación y fortalecimiento de vínculos y, para ello, cuenta con el poder de la comensalidad.…”

El estudio de las transiciones políticas suele poner énfasis en sus componentes políticos, éticos e históricos. Sin embargo, las transiciones merecen ser comprendidas como procesos de cambio de época caracterizados por un espíritu de refundación nacional donde se pone en juego la hegemonía cultural. Basándose en la sociología política y la antropología simbólica, este artículo sostiene que dicha refundación se pone en acto en diversas escenas, en particular, aquellas organizadas en torno a la cocina y la alimentación. A través del análisis de discursos públicos plasmados en fuentes secundarias, se analizará la gastrodiplomacia chilena durante la transición y se propondrá un marco de interpretación que imbrica la teoría política, el uso de la metáfora teatral y teorías sobre el rito para dar cuenta de los componentes simbólicos de las reconciliaciones nacionales bajo un marco transicional.

Food and Nationalism: Gastronationalism Revisited

This article reviews recent developments in scholarship on gastronationalism, or more broadly, food and nationalism. It finds while the concept of gastronationalism per se has not been rigorously developed, scholarship of food and nationalism in general has been developing fast. A major development in the study of gastronationalism is the introduction of the everyday nationhood/banal nationalism perspective, which in turn diverts the focus away from the state’s intervention, a point emphasized by Michaela DeSoucey. The review of the field suggests that a renewed focus on the role of food in the interaction between state actors and international organizations would further refine the concept of gastronationalism. As for the study of food and nationalism, efforts to integrate findings from existing case studies to produce an overall understanding of society are needed.
