Food is an essential aspect of cultural dynamics in any given society and plays a crucial role in processes of
identity formation, on both the personal and the social level. A focus on migrant food allows the examination of
cultural exchange in everyday life and helps to understand contemporary transnationality in post-migrant societies better.
Restaurants and food stores selling ‘foreign’ products form a significant part of urban economies in Europe today. Many of
these businesses are run by people with a minority background, while the clientele consists of both migrant and non-migrant local
residents. These places are major instruments of culinary-cultural transformations – changes that can also be traced in the
homes of both migrants and natives. We will study both forms of eating – in public as well as at home – in order to analyze the
differences, but also the interdependencies between these spheres which also enables us to account for gendered ways of
preparing, buying, selling and consuming food.
This second CIERA workshop will bring together junior and senior scholars of migration and food culture from
France and Germany and from various disciplinary backgrounds to explore how migrant food is transforming
European (food) cultures. The objective will be to understand how migrant producers, retailers and consumers are taking part in these
changes within the contexts of the countries’ very different (post)colonial and migration histories. Our interdisciplinary approach will
be both comparative (German-French) and diachronic in order to firstly, overcome disciplinary and national frameworks of analysis
and, secondly, to systematically account for historical developments and national path dependencies that still shape Europe today.
Our main research questions during the workshop will be:
In which ways have migrants transformed their original eating habits and adapted themselves to the new local frame they moved into?
How does this affect their sense of belonging?
How is food culture used by migrants in the food business to assert their place in society? How are urban spaces reconfigured via
migrant foodscapes?
What is the impact of migrant culture and knowledge on the food consumption patterns of wider society, as in restaurants or in respect
to the food sold in shops and eaten within the household? In which ways have ‘foreign’ foods reshaped national food cultures?
What conflicts arise in the culinary field? How are they dealt with? What role do religious food taboos play in the production and
consumption of food and drink? What forms of exoticism and (neo)colonial “eating the other” are to be found in the marketing and
consumption of migrant food?
The workshop will be organized around three thematic discussions between junior and senior researchers:
