Beskrivning
As the demand for food banks and other emergency food charities continues to rise across the continent, this is the first systematic Europe-wide study of the roots and consequences of this urgent phenomenon. Leading researchers provide case studies from the UK, Finland, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Slovenia and Spain, each considering the history and driving political and social forces behind the rise of food charity, and the influence of changing welfare states. They build into a rich comparative study that delivers valuable evidence for anyone with an academic or professional interest in related issues including social policy, exclusion, poverty and justice.

Recensioner i media

“This fascinating and first collection of qualitative cross-case study of the rise of food charity across Europe importantly highlights the link between changes to social rights and entitlements and increased emphasis on non-state providers of food charity. It uses food charity as a lens through which we can learn how wider policy shifts impact on poverty in Europe. A masterpiece in food charity studies, it vigorously argues for embedding this research within the overall context of poverty. Constructive discussions and proposition in terminology and concepts advance this field of poverty studies. A seminal collection forcefully advancing food poverty studies.” Helmut P. Gaisbauer, University of Salzburg
