Resumen
CAMACHO VERA, Joaquín Huitzilihuitl; CERVANTES ESCOTO, Fernando; CESIN VARGAS, Alfredo y PALACIOS RANGEL, María Isabel. Artisanal foods and food modernity. Estud. soc. Rev. aliment. contemp. desarro. reg. [online]. 2019, vol.29, n.53, e19700. ISSN 2395-9169. https://doi.org/10.24836/es.v29i53.700.
Objective:
In this work the concept of artisanality is discussed in order to have elements to differentiate artisanal foods from those produced by modern industry.
Methodology:
It is argued that the qualities of work are the correct dimensions to define the artisanal nature.
Results:
It is stated that the characteristics of artisanal foods derive from a low scale of production, an intensive use of family labor, low intensity in the use of machinery and equipment and low speed of technological change.
Limitations:
It is essential to discuss, from an ethical perspective, the ways in which food is produced, confonting the discourse of modern ethics of food and its alternatives.
Conclusions:
If it is assumed that the qualities of work are those that confer the artisanal property to a food product, the possibility that modern industry can supplant them using advances in research and technological developments is eliminated.
