The Last Course Revisited: Reflections on Policy, Praxis, and Protest
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: ABSTRACT This article is a personal reflection on how SAFN addressed my academic identity crisis in the late 70s. The development of the anthropology of food and nutrition provided opportunities to refashion disciplinary praxis and to link the little and the large in interesting ways. Practitioners also used food and nutrition to challenge conceptual silos, making it easier for policy makers to use anthropological research.
