GLOBAL HISTORY OF FOOD


Language: English


Lecturer: Salvatore Ciriacono

Credits: 6 ECTS

Examination: The examination will be addressed in oral form and at individual level, although the

preparation of a term paper can be addressed and presented in aggregate form.

Prerequisites: Students must be able, through the general knowledge gained in previous years, to

assimilate the contents of the history of food in a long-term perspective. They have yet to put this

particular field of study in a broader framework that incorporated the general history, culture and

economic development of much of the globe.

as consequence of the transatlantic links. The Asian tradition in the cultivation of many crops - rice in the

first place - as well in the expansion of its kitchen will also be considered. Colonial produce as sugar, coffee,

cacao will be analyzed as a fundamental chapter of the European “consumption revolution” during the

Early Modern Times, opening a new era during which the expansion of the markets and the “globalization”

of the taste characterized modern nutrition. The industrial preparation and conservation of food which

started in the 19th century are today confronted with the discovery of the regional kitchen and new

dimensions of food consumption (e.g. slow food).

commission of examiners.

Prerequisites: Basic knowledge of ecology, forest botany and, especially, forest ecology.

Programme: Over the last years, the quantitative definition of forest structure and stand dynamics has

rapidly become more and more important because the knowledge of the main patterns and processes

controlling a forest ecosystem is a critical prerequisite for a high-quality forest management. Therefore, an

overall view starting from the ecological side of the ecosystem, to the management and finally to the

exploitation strategies are becoming key instruments for a thorough knowledge and a wise management of

forest systems. More specifically, the course includes: (i) Understanding the role of different forest types in

view of choosing the right management system; (ii) Knowledge of key issues, instruments and

methodologies of dendroecology; (iii) Knowledge of instruments and methodologies of spatial analyses

related to forest dynamics; (iv) Assessment of the different forest functions and choice of the main one in

the context of the landscape mosaic in subalpine environments; (v) Practical application of different

silvicultural systems in subalpine forests. (vi) Knowledge of forest survey, mechanisation and logging in

steep areas. (vii) Ability to analyse case-studies and to use them in understanding theory and concepts and

in identifying weaknesses and strengths. In addition, most of the case-studies discussed are directly visited

by the students; they are (a) an even-aged beech forest located in the pre-Alps; (b) a Pinus sylvestris stand

heavily disturbed; (c) a typical subalpine spruce stand; (d) a typical uneven-aged, mixed larch-stone pine

high-elevation stand.

contents of the course). Only those passing the written examination are admitted to the final oral

examination. The oral examination includes: a) discussion on eventual weaknesses identified in the

previous written examination; b) additional open-ended questions on the modules’ contents. During the

course, the students are required to prepare reports, PPT presentations and other documents as part of

classrooms exercises and/or home assignments. Their active partipation and quality of reports/documents

Prerequisites: None. However, it would be useful to contemporarily follow or to have previously followed

the course on “Social Responsibility by public and private organisations”.

Programme: In the rapidly changing global scenario, in a market economy with competitive and

transparent markets and environmentally conscious citizens and consumers, organisations are rewarded

for their environmental and social achievements, while they face constraints if they use environmentally or

socially poor practices without taking into account stakeholders’ point of views. Due to this trend, which is

influencing the forestry sector’s producers, traders and users, the societal marketing is becoming a

strategic instrument for business and public administration's action.

The aim of the course is to give students a thorough understanding of the current situation and potential

role of societal marketing applied to forestry sector. Particular attention is given to forest certification as an

environmental and social-based marketing instrument.

1st ETCS: Fundamentals of Marketing, Societal marketing and strategic planning: the Marketing Mix: “4+2

P’s“); Market Segmentation and Differentiation; (iii) Introduction to the various instruments and initiatives

for adopting and implementing environmental and social responsible behaviors, included legal and
