The Idea of Wine
Wine is a simple thing. The idea of wine, however, is very complicated,
since it reflects both wine itself and wine's complex and dynamic social
and economic terroir of values, attitudes, and interests. Because wine
intersects social processes in so many ways, the question of which idea of
wine will prevail, or how the contractions between and among the different
ideas will be resolved or not, has important implications. This course
looks closely at the battle for the idea of wine with special attention to
its interdisciplinary aspects and conflicts and consideration of how the
globalization of wine has intensified the inherent conflicts.
