This book describes 1,600 Food Communities in 150 countries: from the hatahata fishermen of Kitaura in Japan to the raisin producers of Herat in Afghanistan; from Ethiopian forest coffee pickers to Mexican vanilla growers. Farmers, shepherds, fishermen, pork butchers, vine-dressers...all people who embody a new idea of agriculture based on taste quality, sustainability and social justice. All they demand is fertile soil, clean seas, sufficient water and the free circulation of information, knowledge and produce. Of these communities, 300 are Slow Food Presidia, developed worldwide to save food products in real danger of extinction.

More than twenty years ago, when Italian Carlo Petrini learned that McDonald's wanted to erect its golden arches next to the Spanish Steps in Rome, he developed an impassioned response: he helped found the Slow Food movement. Since then, Slow Food has become a worldwide phenomenon, inspiring the likes of Alice Waters and Michael Pollan. Now, it's time to take the work of changing the way people grow, distribute, and consume food to a new level. In Terra Madre, Petrini shows us a solution in the thousands of newly formed local alliances between food producers and food consumers. And he proposes expanding these alliances-connecting regional food communities around the world to promote good, clean, and fair food. The end goal is a world in which communities are entitled to food sovereignty-allowed to choose not only what they want to grow and eat, but also how they produce and distribute it.

Terra Madre People presents the farmers, breeders, fishermen, cooks, students, and academics at the Terra Madre 2008 meeting who actively support local, sustainable food production and the preservation of taste and biodiversity. About Terra Madre: Forging a New Global Network of Sustainable Food Communities by Carlo Petrini: In 2004 thousands of farmers, fishermen, and traditional food producers from all over the world met for the first time together at Terra Madre-an event billed as "a convocation of world food communities." Since that historic first meeting, Terra Madre has grown into what has been called "the greatest multinational" on earth-one that links producers, cooks, academics, and consumers together based on a basic set of shared policies and values, including a profound respect for diversity, both natural and cultural. The Terra Madre networks offer concrete, appropriately scaled solutions for some of our most vexing problems that are destroying farmers, wiping out cultures, and degrading both our environment and our health. In the future, Carlo Petrini argues, the small farmers and artisan food producers of Terra Madre will be the leading players in the third Industrial Revolution-a revolution that runs on clean, sustainable energy rather than steam power or fossil-fuel electricity. In this provocative and lucid book, Petrini explores the roots of our current problems and offers a framework for hope. Terra Madre brings politics and poetry together in a joyful, multicultural chorus of voices. If we listen closely to their collective wisdom, there is time yet to save the world-one farm and one village at a time.

Written by one of the leading experts on food activism, this is the only independent, full-length study of the Slow Food movement. Slow Food is a grassroots organisation that embraces a slow way of life, linking the love of food with community and environmental support. Based on three years of ethnographic fieldwork inside Slow Food's international headquarters in Italy, Valeria Siniscalchi reveals what really goes on behind the scenes of this enigmatic organization. Observing daily meetings, decision-making processes, and major events, she explores the contradictions, complexities, and ambiguities of the movement – as well as the passionate commitment of its employees, members, and leaders. Through talking to insiders and people who have 'broken' with Slow Food, Siniscalchi makes a major contribution to our understanding of one of the most high profile and controversial food movements in the world – and to our knowledge of activist organizations more broadly. This is an essential read for students and scholars in food studies, anthropology, geography, and sociology and anyone interested in Slow Food.

This cultural history of Mussolini's dictatorship discusses the meanings of modernity in interwar Italy. The work argues that fascism appealed to many Italian intellectuals as a new model of modernity that would resolve the European crisis as well as long-standing problems of the national past.

Inspiring the global fight to revolutionize the way food is grown, distributed, and eaten. In the almost thirty years since Carlo Petrini began the Slow Food organization, he has been constantly engaged in the fight for food justice. Beginning first in his native Italy and then expanding all over the world, the movement has created a powerful force for change. The essential argument of this book is that food is an avenue towards freedom. This uplifting and humanistic message is straightforward: if people can feed themselves, they can be free. In other words, if people can regain control over access to their food—how it is produced, by whom, and how it is distributed—then that can lead to a greater empowerment in all channels of life. Whether in the Amazon jungle talking with tribal elders or on rice paddies in rural Indonesia, the author engages the reader through the excitement of his journeys and the passion of his mission. Here, Petrini reports upon some of the success stories that he has observed firsthand. From Chiapas to Puglia, Morocco to North Carolina, he has witnessed the many ways different peoples have dealt with food problems. This book allows us to learn from these case studies and lays out models for the future.
