Episode #95: Dr Charlene Rose - Exploring superdiversity and identity through Caribbean food
Episode 96
Friday, 17 October, 2025
In this special episode, Dr Charlene Rose talks to John about her work on the geographies of Caribbean cuisine, which formed the heart of her thesis, and explore themes of superdiversity, creolisation, authenticity and identity. They discuss the interdisciplinary route she took to her research, through work, study and personal experience, and consider why the political, economic and cultural aspects of food make it a rich source of geographical enquiry.
