Steve Striffler "Chicken: The Dangerous Transformation of America's
Favorite Food"
Yale University Press | 2005-10-27 | ISBN: 0300095295 | 208 pages
Anthropologist Steve Striffler begins this book in a poultry
processing plant, drawing on his own experiences there as a worker. He
also reports on the way chickens are raised today and how they are
consumed. What he discovers about America's favorite meat is not just
unpleasant but a powerful indictment of our industrial food system.
The process of bringing chicken to our dinner tables is unhealthy for
all concerned-from farmer to factory worker to consumer.
The book traces the development of the poultry industry since the
Second World War, analyzing the impact of such changes as the
destruction of the family farm, the processing of chicken into nuggets
and patties, and the changing makeup of the industrial labor force.
The author describes the lives of immigrant workers and their
reception in the small towns where they live. The conclusion is clear:
there has to be a better way. Striffler proposes radical but practical
change, a plan that promises more humane treatment of chickens, better
food for the consumer, and fair payment for food workers and farmers.
