Professor Susanne Freidberg of Dartmouth College will be visiting the campus to workshop a paper entitled "Footprint Technopolitics" which discusses her recent research on the metrics of Life Cycle Analysis. A graduate of the UC Berkeley Geography Department, Dr. Freidberg is one of the country's most eminent food scholars. She is the author of two widely acclaimed books, Fresh: A Perishable History (Harvard, 2009) and French Beans and Food Scares: Culture and Commerce in an Anxious Age (Oxford, 2004), along with many articles. She has received support for her research from the Mellon Foundation, the American Council for Learned Societies, and the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Studies. Please note that this is a workshop and not a talk. We will be circulating her paper in advance of the workshop and expect those attending to have read it and come prepared to discuss it. If you are interested in attending, please RSVP to Lisa Nishioka at global@ucsc.edu who will let you know how to access the paper. PLEASE RSVP TO ATTEND at global@ucsc.edu
