Welcome to H-Food-Studies, H-Net’s network for the history, culture, and politics of food and drink globally.
Food Studies is by nature a field that incorporates interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary studies. H-Food-Studies provides a forum for sharing ideas, resources, discussions and opportunities in research, teaching, publication and other activities (in and outside of academia) related to the production, consumption, distribution, cultural meanings, and history of food and drink through time and around the world. It is a place to make and understand connections among the disparate disciplines of the field, pose thoughtful questions, find relevant answers and resources, and engage in stimulating discussions with others in the field.
Relevant discussions, reviews and posts are welcome and should competently inform and address the field. The editors will evaluate the posts for adherence to the purpose of the H-Food Studies board before accepting any post according to H-Net protocols.
Below you will find CFP's, Announcements, Discussion Topics, and New Book Announcements for the international field of Food Studies. Read, subscribe, and post your own!

Americans love coffee, but the coffee in American cups has changed a lot over the years. Three waves of coffee consumer culture washed over the twentieth-century United States: the mass commodity wave, the differentiation wave, and the aficionado’s wave. With each wave came changes to the way Americas bought, prepared, and consumed coffee. Present throughout the decades, however, has been the Chemex coffeemaker designed in the 1930s by chemist and industrial designer Peter Schlumbohm.
Uncovering the story of the Chemex coffeemaker is Clark Barwick, cultural historian and teaching professor

Dear H-Net Community,
Fifteen years ago, a colleague recommended I visit H-Net. I found a community of scholars who engaged in high-level discussions with grace and collegiality, openly shared information, and answered queries freely. Whether you have been a member since 1993 or just found us in the last few months, I hope your experience is similar.

H-Net was a digital space where I was able to enjoy communicating with people in my field of interest and develop professional networking linkages and other opportunities before I completed my Ph.D. I am pleased when I see graduate students and newly minted Ph.D.s
