This volume collects the outcomes of Ali-Menti (https://alimenti.uniurb.it/progetto) an interdisciplinary project aimed at investigating the issue of food security focusing on the meat industry. The book, in the part where it proposes a multi-voiced declination of the concept of food security, outlines an unprecedented path on a subject generally treated according to more classical approaches. Moreover, the analysis of the Italian meat supply chain allows to deal with a lot of current questions: from climate change to animal welfare to the health and safety of workers and consumers.
