Übergewicht und Adipositas gelten als die größte gesundheitspolitische Herausforderung der Zukunft. In den USA wird Übergewicht mittlerweile als Todesursache Nummer eins noch vor dem Risikofaktor Rauchen geführt. Auch hierzulande werden, spätestens seitdem Renate Künast das Thema zur Chefsache erklärt hatte, Übergewicht und Adipositas nicht länger als ein medizinisches bzw. ästhetisches Problem, sondern als ein gesellschaftliches Problem angesehen. Dabei werden das gesteigerte öffentliche Interesse sowie die politische Brisanz des Themas meist mit der rasanten Zunahme des Phänomens begründet. Der Band analysiert vor diesem Hintergrund kritisch die gesellschaftlichen Bedingungen, die dem dicken Bauch eine so schillernde Problemkarriere ermöglicht haben.

This book focuses on food policy, and its relationship to public health, as an increasingly important issue in today’s society. Contributors highlight the lack of global regulation in the food supply chain and explore the common tendency to leave regulation to markets and to individual consumer decisions. In a period where there is growing concern about the sustainability of contemporary food systems, this book considers the inadequate response made to issues of food waste where solutions in high income countries are dependent on lifestyle and consumer behaviour. It offers an insight in to the importance of people’s everyday lives in relation to policies on public health, food and sustainability. The text demonstrates the corrosive impact of social inequality, and the futility of identifying lower income consumers as flawed when aiming for food policies that seek to achieve improvements in public health. Factors such as technological developments, ecological concerns and international trade are also taken in to account. This book was originally published as a special issue of Critical Public Health.

The concept of rationality and its significance for theory and empirical research in social science are key topics of scholarly discussion. In the tradition of an analytical as well as empirical approach in social science, this volume assembles novel contributions on methodological foundations and basic assumptions of theories of rational choice. The volume highlights the use of rational choice assumptions for research on fundamental problems in social theory such as the emergence, dynamics, and effects of social norms and the conditions for cooperation and prosociality.

Comprehensive and interdisciplinary, this collection explores the complex, and often problematic, ways in which the news media shapes perceptions of poverty. Editor Sandra L. Borden and a diverse collection of scholars and journalists question exactly how the news media can reinforce (or undermine) poverty and privilege. This book is divided into five parts that examine philosophical principles for reporting on poverty, the history and nature of poverty coverage, problematic representations of people experiencing poverty, poverty coverage as part of reporting on public policy and positive possibilities for poverty coverage. Each section provides an introduction to the topic, as well as a broad selection of essays illuminating key issues and a Q&A with a relevant journalist. Topics covered include news coverage of corporate philanthropy, structural bias in reporting, representations of the working poor, the moral demands of vulnerability and agency, community empowerment and citizen media. The book’s broad focus considers media and poverty at both the local and global levels with contributors from 16 countries. This is an ideal reference for students and scholars of media, communication and journalism who are studying topics involving the media and social justice, as well as journalists, activists and policy makers working in these areas.

Games and Sporting Events in History offers a broad global perspective on sports and games in Europe, North America, Africa, and Asia. A diverse set of topics covers education, medicine, therapy, body culture, gender, race, cross cultural flow, and political issues from the late nineteenth century throughout the twentieth century, offering new insights into previously little researched areas of scholarship relating to physical activity and sport. Such works take a new look at old issues with continued relevance to current works. The use of sports as a political tool are prominent in studies persistent to national and international relations; while other investigations cover the sociocultural discourse of the past relative to bodies and physical performances that continue to resonate in modern times. This book was previously published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport.

Over the last two decades, fatness has become the focus of ubiquitous negative rhetoric, in the USA and beyond, presented under the cover of the medicalized ''war against the obesity epidemic''. In Fat on Film, Barbara Plotz provides a critical analysis of the cinematic representation of fatness during this timeframe, specifically in contemporary Hollywood cinema, with an emphasis on the intersection of gender, race and fatness. The analysis is based on around 50 films released since 2000 and includes examples such as Transformers (2007), Precious (2009), Kung Fu Panda (2008), Paul Blart (2009) and Pitch Perfect (2012).Plotz maps the common cinematic tropes of fatness and also shows how commonplace notions of fatness that are part of the current ''obesity epidemic'' discourse are reflected in these tropes. In this original study, Plotz brings critical attention to the politics of fat representation, a topic that has so far received little attention within film and cinema studies.

Twentieth century Europe went through a dramatic transition from low income populations experiencing hunger and nutritionally inadequate diets, to the recent era of over-consumption and growing numbers of overweight and obese people. By examining the trends in food history from case studies across Europe, this book offers a historical context to explain how and why this transition has occurred and what we can learn in order to try and address the vitally important issues arising from obesity in contemporary Europe.

We live in the age of fitness. Hundreds of thousands of people run marathons and millions go jogging in local parks, work out in gyms, cycle, swim, or practice yoga. The vast majority are not engaged in competitive sport and are not trying to win any medals. They just want to get fit. Why this modern preoccupation with fitness? In this new book, Jürgen Martschukat traces the roots of our modern preoccupation with fitness back to the birth of modern societies in the eighteenth century, showing how the idea of fitness was interwoven with modernity’s emphasis on perpetual optimization and renewal. But it is only in the period since the 1970s, he argues, that the age of fitness truly emerged, as part and parcel of our contemporary neoliberal era. Neoliberalism enjoins individuals to work on themselves, to cultivate themselves in body and mind. Fitness becomes a guiding principle of social life, an era-defining network of discourses and practices that shape individuals’ actions and self-conceptions. The pursuit of fitness becomes a cultural repertoire that is deeply ingrained in our institutions and way of life. This wide-ranging book shows how deeply fitness is inscribed in modern societies, and how important fitness has become to success or failure, recognition or exclusion, in a society that sets great store by self-responsibility, performance, market, and competition. It will be of great value not only to those interested in sport and fitness, but also to anyone concerned with the conditions of success and failure in our societies today.

Adipositas: Ein Buch mit sieben Siegeln. Während die Stoffwechselkrankheit bislang nicht ausreichend erforscht ist, wird sie als chronische Krankheit noch immer nicht flächendeckend anerkannt. Betroffenen wird häufig fälschlicherweise ein Lifestyle-Problem vorgeworfen. Myriam Hernandez hat die Adipositas-Baustellen recherchiert, um hinter die Kulissen zu blicken: Statt Ursachen werden Symptome und Folgeerscheinungen behandelt. Die Krankheit und der Umgang mit ihr ist gesäumt von Wissenslücken und Missverständnissen. Dieses Buch soll einen Beitrag zu mehr Klarheit leisten.

Die "Adipositas-Epidemie" gilt als eine der größten gesundheitspolitischen Herausforderungen der Gegenwart und zunehmend auch als politisches Problem. Die Studie untersucht den Prozess der Etablierung dieser, zwar nur temporären, aber dennoch wirkmächtigen Wahrheit über dicke Körper und ordnet sie in ihren gesellschaftspolitischen Kontext ein. Dabei wird auch auf Gegendeutungen eingegangen; etwa auf die Forderung, dicke Körper als gleichberechtigten Teil gesellschaftlicher Vielfalt anzuerkennen. Anschließend wird analysiert, wie sich die politischen Maßnahmen gegen die "Adipositas-Epidemie" in Deutschland, den USA, Großbritannien und der Europäischen Union in den Paradigmenwechsel vom fürsorgenden zum aktivierenden Sozialstaat einfügen.
