“Our Culture Is Larger / Than The Life Of The Chick Pea”: A Thematic Analysis Of Food And Foodways In Palestinian Poetry From The Twentieth To The Twenty-First Century, Basmah Arshad May 2026

“Our Culture Is Larger / Than The Life Of The Chick Pea”: A Thematic Analysis Of Food And Foodways In Palestinian Poetry From The Twentieth To The Twenty-First Century, Basmah Arshad

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

Since the early twentieth century, Palestinians have used poetry as a means of remembering and celebrating their homeland amid its occupation and colonization. Naomi Shihab Nye, Rashid Husayn, and Zeina Azzam are understudied poets of Palestinian heritage. All three experiment with varying depictions of Palestinian food and foodways, and placing their poetry into conversation enables a greater understanding of how and why food is an enduring metaphorical vehicle for mourning, soothing, or surviving the Palestinian poet’s physical and emotional alienation from Palestine. There is a generational distinction in how poets identify said alienation. Husayn, who comes from an older generation …

What My Grandma Ate, What My Grandma Wrote: Culinary Memory, Migration, And Changing Foodways In A Cretan–Turkish Household, Sedef Özgönül Donuktan May 2026

What My Grandma Ate, What My Grandma Wrote: Culinary Memory, Migration, And Changing Foodways In A Cretan–Turkish Household, Sedef Özgönül Donuktan

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

This paper explores the difference between daily eating habits (what is “eaten”) and handwritten recipe notebooks (what is “written”) within a Cretan-Turkish kinship network influenced by migration and resettlement. By combining oral history interviews with five women and analysing 242 notebook recipes, the study shows that these handwritten books are not just passive records of daily meals. Instead, they serve as selective domestic archives shaped by a “festive bias,” standardisation, and social value. The research indicates that while routine meals (such as stews) depend on embodied, unrecorded knowledge, the notebooks mainly contain special dough recipes using modern industrial ingredients like …

A Sisyphean Carrot In Waiting For Godot, Thierry Dubost May 2026

A Sisyphean Carrot In Waiting For Godot, Thierry Dubost

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

In Waiting for Godot, Beckett employs a variety of strategies to expose what it means to be human. Among them, one notes a recurring emphasis on eating scenes that reflect a lurking existential crisis illustrated by the characters’ failure to follow expected standards of commensality. In this respect, if one refers to Brillat-Savarin’s maxim “Tell me what kind of food you eat and I will tell you what kind of man you are,” one could start from physiological features that are given pride of place in the play to ponder over the importance of unexpected forms of nourishment as revealing …

Objects Of Wartime Resistance And Food Scarcity, Nathalie Cooke May 2026

Objects Of Wartime Resistance And Food Scarcity, Nathalie Cooke

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

This paper considers closely three missives crafted by individuals suffering life- threatening duress during wartime incarceration, one during World War One, and two during the Second World War. Only one of these three survived beyond wartime. All three examples involve food: messages embroidered on or about the sourcing of daily bread or describing dishes that were available only in memory. Nevertheless, the very act of crafting objects to carry communications beyond the dire circumstances in which these prisoners of war found themselves embodied hope and defiance. While acknowledging and describing the very different contexts of each of these examples, I …

Crisis, Hope And The Headline: Agenda Setting In England’S Covid Food Story, Dayna Brackley May 2026

Crisis, Hope And The Headline: Agenda Setting In England’S Covid Food Story, Dayna Brackley

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

Panic buying during Covid was a crisis of perception as much as supply. This paper builds on the mixed method content analysis of 209 articles and accompanying images from six high circulation English newspapers, March to July 2020, setting it in the context of calls for civil food resilience and the UK national food strategy. The research shows how the press framed food access, responsibility and risk at a pivotal turning point. Sensationalised language appeared in 89% of articles, 68% carried negative sentiment, and 64% of analysed images showed empty shelves. Supermarkets were the dominant voice, quoted in 62% of …

Narrative Construction In Post-Conflict Society: How Narratives Can Shape Conflict Perpetuation And Reconciliation Possibilities In Syria., Abigail H. Eid May 2026

Narrative Construction In Post-Conflict Society: How Narratives Can Shape Conflict Perpetuation And Reconciliation Possibilities In Syria., Abigail H. Eid

Capstone Collection

In December 2024, Syria’s long-standing Assad regime was overthrown, and the country entered a new era of post-conflict reconstruction. This study explores the narratives Syrians in the diaspora are constructing about this regime change and the new era for Syrian society. To do so, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 16 Syrians in the diaspora of various backgrounds and analyzed using an inductive narrative analysis to see which themes emerged. The findings were further organized to understand how these narratives may contribute to perpetuating conflict or promoting peacebuilding and reconciliation. Based on the analysis, there are four main types of narratives …

Where Art Meets The Table: Food, Art, And Culture At The Intersection Of Crisis And Hope, Ciza Zoya May 2026

Where Art Meets The Table: Food, Art, And Culture At The Intersection Of Crisis And Hope, Ciza Zoya

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

Food is more than sustenance; it is a carrier of memory, identity, and power, shaping both belonging and exclusion. In contemporary art, food has emerged as a critical medium through which these tensions can be explored. This paper argues that food- based art operates at the intersection of crisis and hope, revealing how everyday practices of cooking, sharing, and eating both reflect social hierarchies and create possibilities for connection. Drawing on anthropological perspectives, contemporary art theory, and the author’s own artistic practice, the paper examines how food functions as a social structure shaped by gender, class, caste, and colonial histories. …

“It’S The End Of The World As We Know It” And I Feel Hungry: Food In Dystopian And Utopian Fictional Futures, Deirdre Murphy, Maureen Costura May 2026

“It’S The End Of The World As We Know It” And I Feel Hungry: Food In Dystopian And Utopian Fictional Futures, Deirdre Murphy, Maureen Costura

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

In dystopian fantasy fiction and the more recent subgenre of hopepunk, representations of food—growing and scavenging it, preparing and eating it—reveal distinct but evolving perspectives on the collapse of human societies facing environmental, political, and economic disasters. As we examine these bodies of literature, contrasts abound. There is never enough food in dystopian fantasy. What is available is bland, repetitive, and dubiously nutritious. Trauma around food is ongoing. Scavenging highlights the anxiety of diminishing resources, while consumption is either solitary and lonely, or shared among small and struggling groups where meals only contribute to abiding grief. In all, food insecurity …

Ukraine’S Wine Identity Is Being Shaped By War, Richie Brady, Vasylysa Yilmaz, Victoria Makarova May 2026

Ukraine’S Wine Identity Is Being Shaped By War, Richie Brady, Vasylysa Yilmaz, Victoria Makarova

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has inflicted irreparable damage to Ukraine and its wine industry. Wineries have been invaded, occupied, and looted. Facilities have been deliberately destroyed, vineyards mined, and warehouses targeted. Increasingly, details regarding attacks are withheld by winemakers for security reasons. Infrastructural attacks, such as on Odesa’s seaport and electricity power-supplies, have furthered logistical and operational issues. Staffing difficulties have grown as men are drafted into the army or emigrate. Pressure on the industry has also increased as exports have decreased while imports have increased. Yet, Ukrainian wine has been described as thriving and as a metaphor for the …

Dream Pastries Of Despair And Wines Of Optimism: An Analysis Of Food And Drink As Emotive Narrative Devices In Dungeons And Dragons’ Curse Of Strahd, Carina Mansey, Mickey Cripps-Wells, Obie Tanner May 2026

Dream Pastries Of Despair And Wines Of Optimism: An Analysis Of Food And Drink As Emotive Narrative Devices In Dungeons And Dragons’ Curse Of Strahd, Carina Mansey, Mickey Cripps-Wells, Obie Tanner

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

The collaborative fantasy tabletop role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons has gained heightened popularity in recent years. However, the role of food and drink as narrative devices that shape player emotions has received limited scholarly attention. This paper addresses this gap by examining the official adventure module Curse of Strahd, which guides players through the gothic horror setting of Barovia, a realm within the “Domain of Dread.” In this bleak and nightmarish landscape, players encounter foodstuffs designed to evoke feelings of fear, disgust, and longing, while experiencing fleeting moments of hope through acts of perceived charitable reprieve and symbolic resistance amid …

A European Narrative Of Redemption And Hope In The Wine Sector: Fra I Monti – A Case Study, Francesco D'Ausilio May 2026

A European Narrative Of Redemption And Hope In The Wine Sector: Fra I Monti – A Case Study, Francesco D'Ausilio

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

The paper focuses on the story of the Fra i Monti winery in Terelle, a small village located in Italy's Comino Valley, in the province of Frosinone, about 110 km southeast of Rome. This is a paradigmatic territory of agricultural Italy, where between the early 1950s and the mid-1970s, industrialisation and urbanisation shaped the figure of the “metal- mezzadro,” half factory worker and half farmer in the fields, leading to the progressive abandonment of the countryside because it did not offer a secure salary and to the relentless disappearance of farming and wine-making traditions. The paper addresses the theme of …

Wading In The Waters: The Public’S Use Rights In Non-Navigable Streams, Loren Vigil May 2026

Wading In The Waters: The Public’S Use Rights In Non-Navigable Streams, Loren Vigil

Natural Resources Journal

In New Mexico, the water law of prior appropriation rules. As a result, no individual holds a complete right to ownership of water in New Mexico. Instead, New Mexico landowners hold only a right to put appropriated waters to beneficial use. Appropriation of waters requires diversion, a distinct feature that prevents landowners from claiming natural watercourses flowing through their property boundaries. The unappropriated waters of the state are then vested in the state via public trust, to be used and enjoyed by the public. This public right to use often abuts landowner property rights, as water flows over and through …

Adapting The Hermit’S Peak/Calf Canyon Fire Assistance Act To Address The Needs Of The Community It Was Meant To Serve, Kieran Raney May 2026

Adapting The Hermit’S Peak/Calf Canyon Fire Assistance Act To Address The Needs Of The Community It Was Meant To Serve, Kieran Raney

Natural Resources Journal

In 2022, New Mexico experienced its worst documented wildfire season on record, and the Hermit’s Peak/Calf Canyon Fire was the largest among them. Over 340,000 acres of Northern New Mexico burned, devastating a multi-generational, subsistence community. In response, Congress passed the Hermit’s Peak Fire Assistance Act, the second-ever act of its kind to provide full and expeditious compensation for wildfire damage. Yet, more than four years later, many community members still have not received any funding and litigation continues over whether the Act is meant to provide noneconomic damages. This Comment outlines the steps of the rulemaking process to argue …

Measuring Stock Market Inefficiency Using A Multilayer Composite Efficiency Index: A Case Of The Egyptian Exchange, Patrick K. Owido, Hiroki Sayama May 2026

Measuring Stock Market Inefficiency Using A Multilayer Composite Efficiency Index: A Case Of The Egyptian Exchange, Patrick K. Owido, Hiroki Sayama

Northeast Journal of Complex Systems (NEJCS)

Financial markets play a critical role in resource allocation. Their performance depends on the decisions of millions of independent investors constantly reacting to one another. Their informational efficiency remains a subject of debate across economic systems. When informational efficiency is present at the weak form, historical price information should not consistently predict future returns. Several empirical tests of this hypothesis often focus on the behavior of aggregate market indices, and use individual efficiency proxies such as autocorrelation, GARCH-type volatility, or entropy-based measures to measure efficiency. This has often yielded mixed results, particularly in emerging markets. Here we show that testing …

“Can You Describe It?”: A Teacher-Researcher’S Reflections On Crisis And Hope, Christy Shields-Argelès May 2026

“Can You Describe It?”: A Teacher-Researcher’S Reflections On Crisis And Hope, Christy Shields-Argelès

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

Drawing on experiences as a Franco-American food anthropologist and enseignant-chercheur, this paper reflects on crisis and hope through two encounters: Jenny, a novice anthropology student navigating culture shock in a Parisian café, and René, a newly retired Comté farmer learning descriptive tasting on a sensory panel, the jury terroir. Reframing crisis as a threshold – a liminal space of encounter between different systems of meaning – the paper proposes thick description as a methodology for dwelling productively within such moments. Hope, in turn, is understood not as naïve optimism, but as the opening of new perceptual and relational perspectives …

“Good” Food And Crises In Civic Engagement: The Need For Foodways Pedagogies In Communication Studies Classrooms, Ashli Q. Stokes May 2026

“Good” Food And Crises In Civic Engagement: The Need For Foodways Pedagogies In Communication Studies Classrooms, Ashli Q. Stokes

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

The study of foodways has been embraced as a heuristic pedagogical tool in higher education, with courses such as “Taco Literacy” springing up on campus. Communication Studies, too, sees food as more than ingredients, creating a system of meaning, shaping identities, and helping people navigate and negotiate their daily lives. This presentation argues that experiential food studies pedagogies offer one example of how to foster civic engagement, part of the pedagogical core of the communication discipline. At a fraught time in public discourse, foodways pedagogies are needed urgently to help build civic knowledge that shapes views about public issues, increases …

Journal of Educational Research and Practice

This study examined the measurement invariance of an affective engagement scale across gender and school location among secondary school students in Cross River State, Nigeria. The study was premised on the critical role of affective engagement in educational equity and quality. Three research purposes, each with corresponding research questions and hypotheses, were formulated in the study. We used a stratified random sampling to select 500 respondents from a diverse group of students (gender and school location). The Student Engagement Instrument by Appleton et al. (2006) was the instrument adopted for data collection. The instrument underwent a validation process, resulting in …

The Rubble Of Words: Food As A Device For Silence In A Time Of Polycrisis, Jennie Moran May 2026

The Rubble Of Words: Food As A Device For Silence In A Time Of Polycrisis, Jennie Moran

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

On the night of 03 August 2024, Adam Kelwick, the imam from the Abdullah Quillian Society Mosque in Liverpool crossed police lines and presented anti-immigration protesters with burgers and chips prepared in the mosque kitchen. This took place in the aftermath of the Southport stabbings and the worst outbreak of civil disorder in Britain for more than a decade. “We decided to deal with those people who came to protest against us in a way which we hoped could open up hearts and minds. We wanted to cook food for them.” This paper will examine the power of food to …

Hospitality In Crisis: Deciphering Food Insecurity Among Migrants From A Derridean Perspective, Alexandra Constantinescu, Naz Ali May 2026

Hospitality In Crisis: Deciphering Food Insecurity Among Migrants From A Derridean Perspective, Alexandra Constantinescu, Naz Ali

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

Food insecurity faced by disadvantaged groups of migrants (i.e., voluntary migrants living in low-income households and forced migrants – namely asylum seekers) undermines the nature of hospitality, creating conditions of inhospitableness associated with hunger, injustice, insecurity, and poverty. This study presents a critical interpretation of hospitality in crisis by concentrating on food insecurity resulting from government and non-government food policies in England, that are inhospitable towards forced migrants – contributing to an area of enquiry with limited research in food and hospitality studies. The study draws on the teachings of Jacques Derrida, particularly his philosophical perspective on (in)hospitality/hostipitality, with conceptualisations …

Food In Dinneen’S Foclóir Gaedhilge Agus Béarla, John D. Mulcahy May 2026

Food In Dinneen’S Foclóir Gaedhilge Agus Béarla, John D. Mulcahy

Dublin Gastronomy Symposium

Inspired by the work of the late Manchán Magan, this paper examines Irish food and hospitality through the lens of historical lexicography using the 1927 edition of Fr Patrick Dinneen’s Foclóir Gaedhilge agus Béarla as a linguistic “time capsule”. By examining Irish words connected with everyday eating, the paper traces how these words embody resilience, reciprocity, and hope in the face of recurring crises such as famine, emigration, and political upheaval. The paper also draws attention to roles associated with food provision and banqueting, underlining the long-standing importance of hospitality in Irish society. This approach uncovers how hospitality was understood …

Host Range And Characterization Of Phytophthora Species That Cause Plant Diseases In California, Dinh Hieu Pham May 2026

Host Range And Characterization Of Phytophthora Species That Cause Plant Diseases In California, Dinh Hieu Pham

Natural Sciences and Mathematics | Biological Sciences Master's Theses

Phytophthora is one of the most destructive genera of plant pathogens in California, posing significant threats to both nursery production and natural ecosystems. Phytophthora ramorum, the causal agent of Sudden Oak Death (SOD), has expanded its host range to include more than 100 plant species. In addition, Phytophthora elongata, previously isolated in Western Australia from Eucalyptus marginata in 2013, has recently been detected for the first time in the United States on Rhododendron species. This naturally raises concern that a new etiological species has entered the country. Therefore, the goal of this thesis study was three-fold:  i) to …

Former Corporate Employees And The Collective Entity Doctrine, Coleman Raush May 2026

Former Corporate Employees And The Collective Entity Doctrine, Coleman Raush

Florida Law Review

The Fifth Amendment’s Self-Incrimination Clause prevents those under criminal or civil investigation from being compelled to incriminate themselves, but there is a major exception: the collective entity doctrine. The collective entity doctrine provides that no person may refuse to produce corporate documents under the Self-Incrimination Clause when he holds those documents in a representative capacity on behalf of a corporation. The United States Supreme Court, in its most recent decision on the issue, reasoned that an employee holding corporate documents in this manner produces them on behalf of the corporation and not in his own personal capacity. Thus, the Self-Incrimination …

Big Mistake(S), Shmuel I. Becher, Tal Z. Zarsky

Florida Law Review

The digital age has brought the imbalance of power between prominent firms and individual consumers to the forefront. Despite their proclamations of upholding democratic values and prioritizing user well-being, online platforms routinely deploy various mechanisms to disadvantage users and exploit them. This Article takes on one of the thorniest legal challenges that dominant online platforms pose: the often manipulative ways in which they unjustly benefit from users’ attention, time, and troves of personal data, which are intangible assets that the law struggles to quantify and fails to adequately protect.

Leveraging the current legal landscape, online platforms tie their users into …
