Crisis in Perception

Food Across Borders: The Hidden Systems Behind Local Food


Listen Later

Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.

This episode explores Food Across Borders, edited by Matt Garcia, E. Melanie DuPuis, and Don Mitchell, as a systems-level analysis of borderlands food systems.

The discussion examines how food, labor, identity, and territory move through systems that are often described as cultural but structured by borders, markets, migration policy, and agricultural production.

The deeper issue is not simply where food comes from. It is how borders decide what moves freely, who remains vulnerable, and which histories become visible or invisible by the time food reaches the plate.

The discussion examines:
· incentive structures
· institutional persistence
· feedback loops
· hidden system dynamics
· structural outcomes
