This ground breaking book draws on original research to critically examine the construction of eating disorders and disordered eating, in an analysis that encompasses psychiatry, cultural representations, and the politics of eating disorders. This ground breaking book draws on original research to critically examine the construction of eating disorders and disordered eating, in an analysis that encompasses psychiatry, cultural representations, and the politics of eating disorders. Challenging the idea that disordered eating is an individual, marginal issue, the book explores how disordered eating, and the classification of eating disorders (EDs), reflect deep societal disruptions, regulatory practices, and sometimes violent attempts to manage non-conformity. It demonstrates the impact of biomedical, psychiatric, legal, pharmaceutical, technical and consumer groups, as well as that of the fast-food, fashion, media and social media industries. Novel areas explored include eating disorders and the justice system, eating disorders and food landscapes, “lifestyle” eating disorders, and the role of capitalism and colonialism in the emerging biopolitics of food and bodies. Centrally, it reveals how these forces shape the ways that eating disorders are perceived, spoken of, written about, and managed within institutions and wider society. The book will appeal to scholars and students of mental health, psychology, sociology, gender studies, criminology, food justice, and anyone interested in the future of our health.
