Por que comemos o que comemos? uma análise da alimentação sob a ègide do capital financeirizado.

Abstract

Based on the question of the French sociologist and anthropologist Claude Fischler, this article aims to promote a bibliographic and document review, with a qualitative approach, on how food has been affected in the current phase of imperialism, highlighted by financialized capital and oligopolistic groups guided solely by profit. At first, the thought of the Modernity/Coloniality group is considered to understand the relationship between food and coloniality. Thus, while assuming imperialism as a missing link in the decolonial turn, the debate around the theme is in vogue, to understand its current phase and to understand how we are inserted in a food imperiality.
