We are delighted to share the following good news with you! On 16 and 17 November, the congress "Food, Rules and the City" will take place. This event is co-organised by our colleagues Robin Rose Southard and Dennis De Vriese, both PhD researchers at VUB. Bringing together scholars working of food regulation in Western, Southern and Eastern Europe from the Late Middle Ages onwards, the conference explores patterns of similarity and differences in how societies sought to control and regulate the urban food supply. The conference will take place on both the ULB and VUB campuses in Brussels, and several speakers will share their expertise on food market regulation and their social and political dynamics (from the 15th to the 20th century).
