伦理学与健康食品论的时代意义——兼及迈克尔·波伦与彼得·辛格的食学思想

On Contemporary Significance of Ethics and Health Food Theory——On Ideas of Michael Pollan and Peter Singer on Food Studies

20世纪中叶以后,人类陷入了片面追求产量和利润的工业化食材生产与食物制造导致的"产业化食物链病"的危机之中。"产业化食物链病"是现时代单一品种大规模的工业种植、养殖造成的。素食主义者彼得·辛格与杂食主义者迈克尔·波伦是近40年来对人类食事最具影响力的两位杰出食学家,两者的动物伦理学与健康食品论都是对现行产业化食物链的彻底否定。"留住祖先餐桌的记忆"和"食品安全食是时代人权保障的底线"观点已经成为国际社会的共识。美国"小区支持性农业"和波利弗斯农场应当是人类社会走出"产业化食物链病"危机陷阱的可行路径。

Since the mid-20 th century,the industrialized food production that overemphasizes productivity and profit have resulted in the so-called“industrialized food chain disease,”a crisis characterized by large-scale industrialized plantation and cultivation of single foods and a phenomenon fundamentally negated by the animal ethics and heath food theory advocated by vegetarian Peter Singer and omnivore Michael Pollan– two of the most influential food scholars in the past four decades.While notions of“reliving memory of the table of our forefathers”and“food safety being the bottom line for safeguarding human rights of our time”are largely embraced by the whole international community,“community supported agriculture”in the USA and Polyface Farm shall be the paths by which human beings break free from the trap of“industrialized food chain disease.”
