This two-day conference seeks to examine the temporality of food production, circulation, and consumption. By highlighting how time and its reckoning shape and are shaped by the pursuit of the edible, our aim is to move beyond simplistic dichotomies between capitalist acceleration and slow food sustainability to elucidate food’s disjunctive rhythms and the work that goes into managing them.
