Resumen

En las últimas décadas, los estudios históricos sobre la ciencia de la nutrición han ofrecido perspectivas novedosas e innovadoras sobre las relaciones y negociaciones entre ciencia, expertos, poder político y orden social. Algunas de las tendencias más interesantes en el campo de la historia de la ciencia (como el giro material, la epistemología histórica, la pericia científica y el gobierno de la vida, y la ciencia y el imperialismo/colonialismo) han sido articuladas de forma creativa por estudiosos que se ocupan de los procesos históricos de producción y aplicación del conocimiento nutricional moderno en todo el mundo. El volumen que reseñamos es un extraordinario ejemplo de algunos de estos enredos teóricos e historiográficos. El libro es el resultado de un simposio internacional celebrado en 2010 en la Universidad de Brock y financiado por el Instituto de Nutrición, Metabolismo y Diabetes de los Institutos Canadienses de Investigación Sanitaria; reunió a historiadores de la ciencia y la medicina e historiadores sociales y políticos. La mayoría de los capítulos se centran en la historia de la nutrición en Europa Occidental (Alemania, Francia y Gran Bretaña) desde finales del siglo XIX hasta las primeras décadas del siglo XX. Este periodo fue testigo de la aparición de la ciencia experimental moderna, el auge de los Estados nacionales intervencionistas y del bienestar, y la expansión del imperialismo europeo. En la encrucijada de estos procesos científicos y políticos, los alimentos y el cuerpo -el cuerpo trabajador, femenino, infantil, colonial y racial- se convirtieron en objeto de un intenso escrutinio científico y de intervención política.
