Abstract
AbstractWhilst conceptualisations of ethical or alternative food emphasise places of production, spaces of urban ethical consumption are comparatively under‐theorised. I address this gap by considering ethical consumption in cities alongside ethical consumption of urban space. Attending to the spatiality of ethics in urban food, I examine how ethical consumption practices inflect city identities and how urban spaces shape ideas about being ethical, political or alternative. I draw on three themes: reconnection, ‘place‐frames’ and landscapes of production/consumption, referring to several contemporary urban food initiatives. These include formally accredited ethical places (Fairtrade and ‘Slow’ cities) and creative engagements with urban infrastructure.
