Corine Pelluchon on Body - Dictionary of Arguments
Body/Environment/Resources/Pelluchon: Why (...) is the concept of food central? Material foods do not make up the totality of what I live on, since food is equally earthly and spiritual, affective and intellectual, and includes work, entertainment and relationships. Nevertheless, physical food is the paradigm of this philosophy of physicality and sensation. A philosophy that asks for it is a political philosophy. >Existence/Pelluchon, >Ecology/Pelluchon, >Deep Ecology/Pelluchon. Nutrition: (...) [is] an entirely social fact because, beyond its ethical and political significance, it has an affective dimension that refers back to the fact that we were originally nourished by those who have cared for us since birth and have shown us their love - or not.
