Book Synopsis Sameness in Diversity by : Laresh Jayasanker
Download or read book Sameness in Diversity written by Laresh Jayasanker and published by University of California Press. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans of the 1960s would have trouble navigating the grocery aisles and restaurant menus of today. Once-exotic ingredients—like mangoes, hot sauces, kale, kimchi, and coconut milk—have become standard in the contemporary American diet. Laresh Jayasanker explains how food choices have expanded since the 1960s: immigrants have created demand for produce and other foods from their homelands; grocers and food processors have sought to market new foods; and transportation improvements have enabled food companies to bring those foods from afar. Yet, even as choices within stores have exploded, supermarket chains have consolidated. Throughout the food industry, fewer companies manage production and distribution, controlling what American consumers can access. Mining a wealth of menus, cookbooks, trade publications, interviews, and company records, Jayasanker explores Americans’ changing eating habits to shed light on the impact of immigration and globalization on American culture.

Book Synopsis When Mandates Work by : Michael Reich
Download or read book When Mandates Work written by Michael Reich and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting in the 1990s, San Francisco launched a series of bold but relatively unknown public policy experiments to improve wages and benefits for thousands of local workers. Since then, scholars have documented the effects of those policies on compensation, productivity, job creation, and health coverage. Opponents predicted a range of negative impacts, but the evidence tells a decidedly different tale. This book brings together that evidence for the first time, reviews it as a whole, and considers its lessons for local, state, and federal policymakers.
Download or read book 511 National Progress Report written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In July 2000, the Federal Communications Commission designated 511 as the nationwide telephone number for traveler information. The FCC left most implementation issues and schedules to state and local agencies and telecommunication agencies. This report documents the progress made through February 2003 in making 511 a national reality. Major milestones include the creation of the National 511 Deployment Coalition, the activation of the first 511 system in June 2002, the publication of implementation guidelines, the availability of planning grants, a national survey on customer expectations and creation of a vision statement. As of February 2003, fifteen 511 services were operational, and a total of 39 states and the District of Columbia were operating implementing, or planning 511 services. The Deployment Coalition hopes that by 2010, 511 will be operating throughout the United States. Key issues facing implementers include growth management, sustainability, interoperability, marketing, performance measures and the underlying content of the information.

Examining the history of economic, technological, and cultural interactions between cultures and charting the corresponding developments in food history, The Routledge History of Food challenges readers' assumptions about what and how people have eaten, bringing fresh perspectives to well-known historical developments. It is the perfect guide for all students of social and cultural history.

Download or read book Cosmopolitans written by Fred Rosenbaum and published by University of California Press. This book was released on 2011-07-01 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Levi Strauss, A.L. Gump, Yehudi Menuhin, Gertrude Stein, Adolph Sutro, Congresswoman Florence Prag Kahn--Jewish people have been so enmeshed in life in and around San Francisco that their story is a chronicle of the metropolis itself. Since the Gold Rush, Bay Area Jews have countered stereotypes, working as farmers and miners, boxers and mountaineers. They were Gold Rush pioneers, Gilded Age tycoons, and Progressive Era reformers. Told through an astonishing range of characters and events, Cosmopolitans illuminates many aspects of Jewish life in the area: the high profile of Jewish women, extraordinary achievements in the business world, the cultural creativity of the second generation, the bitter debate about the proper response to the Holocaust and Zionism, and much more. Focusing in rich detail on the first hundred years after the Gold Rush, the book also takes the story up to the present day, demonstrating how unusually strong affinities for the arts and for the struggle for social justice have characterized this community even as it has changed over time. Cosmopolitans, set in the uncommonly diverse Bay Area, is a truly unique chapter of the Jewish experience in America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catching Terrosits in America , analyzes the law enforcement agencies and procedures utilized in catching domestic and foreign terrorists from the 1950s to the present, including members of domestic groups ranging from the Klan to the Symbionese Liberation Army of Patty Heart fame to freelancers such as Timothy McVeigh, as well as foreign groups such as al-Qaeda. The author concludes by gauging the effectiveness of these efforts.Terrorism did not first strike America on 9/11/2001, or even with the first World Trade Center bombings in 1993. Much of the second half of the 20th century witnessed terrorism of several different ideological types: the Klan, the Black Liberation Army, the Weather Underground, the Symbionese Liberation Army (famous for kidnapping and brainwashing Patty Hearst), several Puerto Rican groups; freelancers such as the Unabomber Ted Kaczinski and the Oklahoma city bombers McVeigh and Rudolph; and on the foreign front not just al-Qaeda but the likes of the liberation fronts for Croatians, Armenians and Cubans. This book examines the law enforcement fight against such terrorists, the methodologies employed, the effectiveness of such counter-terrorist agendas and how successful they proved to be. and
Book Synopsis The Taste of Place by : Amy B. Trubek
Download or read book The Taste of Place written by Amy B. Trubek and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2008-05-05 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How and why do we think about food, taste it, and cook it? While much has been written about the concept of terroir as it relates to wine, in this vibrant, personal book, Amy Trubek, a pioneering voice in the new culinary revolution, expands the concept of terroir beyond wine and into cuisine and culture more broadly. Bringing together lively stories of people farming, cooking, and eating, she focuses on a series of examples ranging from shagbark hickory nuts in Wisconsin and maple syrup in Vermont to wines from northern California. She explains how the complex concepts of terroir and goût de terroir are instrumental to France's food and wine culture and then explores the multifaceted connections between taste and place in both cuisine and agriculture in the United States. How can we reclaim the taste of place, and what can it mean for us in a country where, on average, any food has traveled at least fifteen hundred miles from farm to table? Written for anyone interested in food, this book shows how the taste of place matters now, and how it can mediate between our local desires and our global reality to define and challenge American food practices.
