Since the mid-1990s, the term ‘foodscapes’ has been used. Its reference to landscape opens it up to a wide theoretical variety and numerous methodological approaches. Through the large ‘semantic yard’ of the concept of landscape it becomes clear that the approach of foodscapes aims less at the description or pure positivistic analysis of the production, distribution and consumption of food, but is rather open to aesthetic approaches, normative questions, aspects of the connection of food and space with meaning. In this respect, research on foodscapes is not simply a part of food geography but reaches beyond it. With this anthology we contribute to the development of the research field on foodscapes and combine diverse perspectives from different disciplines, locations and theoretical as well as methodological backgrounds on the diversity of what foodscapes can be. Our anthology ‘Foodscapes – Theory, History, and Current European Examples’ is the result of the collaboration of lecturers and students from the universities of Bucharest, Madrid, Rome and Tübingen.
