The rise of German science and technology in the nineteenth century had a significant impact on food production on a global scale. The spread of scientific methods facilitated the emergence of those mass markets that determine consumption patterns up until today. This book analyses the industrialization and globalization of foodways through the prism of three commodities: sugar, rum, and beer. Themes include the global competition between continental beet sugar and colonial cane sugar, the complex adaptations and chemical modifications of rum, and the rise of German- and Bohemian-style lager beer which increasingly ousted the darker, British-style beers. From technical development to production and distribution, German engineers, scientists, and entrepreneurs were involved in locations around the world. The flow of know-how, patents, machinery, and people transcended national and imperial boundaries, leading to transnational knowledge exchange in all world regions. Case study chapters focus on Claus Spreckels, the 'Sugar King' of Hawaii and California; the chemical engineer George Stade who built the first industrial rum factory in Barbados; and the Joseph Schlitz Brewing Company, which was the largest brewery in the world in 1900. Transnationally operating individuals and companies set in motion a dynamic of global innovation that encapsulated centralized mass production, seamless transport networks, new ways of food preservation, and the idea of branded goods for global markets. They transformed the way we produce, consume, and think about food in the modern world.

This book investigates the place and meaning of consumption in Jewish lives and the roles Jews played in different consumer cultures in modern Europe and North America. Drawing on innovative, original research into this new and challenging field, the volume brings Jewish studies and the history and theory of consumer culture into dialogue with each other. Its chapters explore Jewish businesspeople's development of niche commercial practices in several transnational contexts; the imagining, marketing, and realization of a Jewish national homeland in Palestine through consumer goods and strategies; associations between Jews, luxury, and gender in multiple contexts; and the political dimensions of consumer choice. Together the essays in this volume show how the study of consumption enriches our understanding of modern Jewish history and how a focus on consumer goods and practices illuminates the study of Jewish religious observance, ethnic identities, gender formations, and immigrant trajectories across the globe.

Color is a visible technology that invisibly connects so many puzzling aspects of modern Western consumer societies—research and development, making and selling, predicting fashion trends, and more. Building on Regina Lee Blaszczyk’s go-to history of the “color revolution” in the United States, this book explores further transatlantic and multidisciplinary dimensions of the topic. Covering history from the mid nineteenth century into the immediate past, it examines the relationship between color, commerce, and consumer societies in unfamiliar settings and in the company of new kinds of experts. Readers will learn about the early dye industry, the dynamic nomenclature for color, and efforts to standardize, understand, and educate the public about color. Readers will also encounter early food coloring, new consumer goods, technical and business innovations in print and on the silver screen, the interrelationship between gender and color, and color forecasting in the fashion industry.

Die aktuelle wissenschaftliche Diskussion gesunder Ernährung umfasst zwei Ebenen: die Ernährung des gesunden sowie die Ernährung des kranken Menschen. Diese polare Gegenüberstellung lässt nur eine unzureichende Beschreibung des gesamten Komplexes Ernährung zu. Wichtig ist aber auch, wie der Einzelne sich zwischen diesen Polen oder auch zwischen Grenzen bewegt. Welche Faktoren können dafür ausschlaggebend sein, dass sich der Mensch freiwillig oder gezwungen in Grenzsituationen begibt? Und wie wirkt sich dies auf sein Essen aus? Die Beschäftigung mit Grenzsituationen in diesem Band dient dazu, Essen und Ernährung lebens- und alltagsnah zu verstehen und so eine gesunde und zukunftsfähige Ernährung zu ermöglichen.

Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts veränderte sich das Wissen über Ernährung grundlegend. Aus einer Ganzheit von Lebensmittel und Speise wurde eine Mixtur von Stoffen. Wer von Eiweiß, Fett und Kohlehydraten, später von Mineralstoffen und Vitaminen sprach, distanzierte sich vom täglichen Essen. Gleichzeitig konnte er jedoch messen und wägen, die Stoffe analysieren, Ernährung planen und verbessern. Neue Produkte wurden so möglich. Die neue »Künstliche Kost« war nahrhaft und schmackhaft, doch nicht länger von Herkunft geprägt. Sie verbreiterte die Lebensmittelpalette, erlaubte Versorgungssicherheit, schuf neue Risiken und entwertete die praktische Kochkunst. Der lange Schatten dieses neuen Wissens bestimmt bis heute unsere Lebensmittel, unser Essen.Dieses Buch bietet in fast hundert Unterkapiteln ein faszinierendes Panorama der Veränderungen der Ernährung seit Mitte des 19. Jahrhundert. Akteure in Wissenschaft, Wirtschaft und Staat rangen um die Konturen des Neuen, umgarnten fürsorglich die Konsumenten. Kriege und Krisen beschleunigten den Wandel, in Friedenszeiten verbreitete sich "künstliche Kost" in den Massenmärkten. Der Autor untersucht, wie sich das Reden über Ernährung verändert hat, wie Werbung nötig wurde, wie Zusatzstoffe Bedeutung gewannen und Gebote und Verbote den Essalltag bis heute prägen. Wer um all dies weiß, wird reflektierter essen, wird einfachen Botschaften und Parolen nicht mehr folgen, und anders mit dem umgehen, was er sich einverleibt.
