<b>Cannabis consumption, commerce, and control in global history, from the nineteenth century to the present day.</b> <p/>This book gathers together authors from the new wave of cannabis histories that has emerged in recent decades. It offers case studies from Africa, Asia, the Americas, Europe, and the Middle East. It does so to trace a global history of the plant and its preparations, arguing that Western colonialism shaped and disseminated ideas in the nineteenth century that came to drive the international control regimes of the twentieth. <p/>More recently, the emergence of commercial interests in cannabis has been central to the challenges that have undermined that cannabis consensus. Throughout, the determination of people around the world to consume substances made from the plant has defied efforts to stamp them out and often transformed the politics and cultures of using them. These texts also suggest that globalization might have a cannabis history. The migration of consumers, the clandestine networks established to supply them, and international cooperation on control may have driven much of the interconnectedness that is a key feature of the contemporary world.

<b>The intersection of food and immigration in North America, from the macroscale of national policy to the microscale of immigrants' lived, daily foodways.</b><p> </p><p>This volume considers the intersection of food and immigration at both the macroscale of national policy and the microscale of immigrant foodways--the intimate, daily performances of identity, culture, and community through food. Taken together, the chapters--which range from an account of the militarization of the agricultural borderlands of Yuma, Arizona, to a case study of Food Policy Council in Vancouver, Canada--demonstrate not only that we cannot talk about immigration without talking about food but also that we cannot talk about food without talking about immigration.</p><p>The book investigates these questions through the construct of the <i>immigrant-food nexus</i>, which encompasses the constantly shifting relationships of food systems, immigration policy, and immigrant foodways. The contributors, many of whom are members of the immigrant communities they study, write from a range of disciplines. Three guiding themes organize the chapters: borders--cultural, physical, and geopolitical&#x3b; labor, connecting agribusiness and immigrant lived experience&#x3b; and identity narratives and politics, from "local food" to "dietary acculturation."</p><p><b>Contributors</b></p><p>Julian Agyeman, Alison Hope Alkon, FernandoJ.
