摘要

随着家庭食品预算越来越紧,政府财政紧缩,节俭的意识形态已经成为主流,节俭饮食博客变得越来越突出。英国版的紧缩政策以削减福利来减少政府开支为特权,并通过对贫困的个人失败解释和对福利申领者的刻板印象来使其合法化。那些被迫勉强糊口的人写的节俭美食博客,是一种数字文化的混合形式,融合了生活经历、美食实践和政治评论的叙述,以挑战有关贫困的主流观点。颇受欢迎的博客《一个叫杰克的女孩》(A Girl Called Jack)打破了贫穷的耻辱给穷人带来的沉默,并通过杰克·梦露(Jack Monroe)对贫困的亲身经历的叙述,将贫困个人化,引起读者的同情,驳斥了对贫困原因的简化主义解释,从而打破了紧缩霸权。梦露还通过实践挑战节俭,这些实践是她在挣扎中获得的个人知识,她在每周10英镑的食物预算中生存和健康饮食。这种叙事和生存实践的结合令人回味和雄辩地与读者产生了强烈的共鸣;然而,对梦露博客的回应凸显了英国社会对日益严重的贫困问题的深切不安,以及谁应该负责解决这一问题的深刻分歧;更根本的是,过度识别和定义现代贫困和现代贫困。

Hunger Hurts: The Politicization of an Austerity Food Blog
Austerity food blogs have become prominent as household food budgets have become tighter, government finances constrained, and an ideology of austerity has become dominant. The British version of austerity privileges reducing government spending by cutting welfare benefits, and legitimizes this through individual failure explanations of poverty and stereotypes of benefit claimants. Austerity food blogs, written by those forced to live hand to mouth, are a hybrid form of digital culture that merges narratives of lived experience, food practices and political commentary in ways that challenge the dominant views on poverty. The popular blog A Girl Called Jack disrupts the austerity hegemony by breaking the silence that the stigma of poverty imposes on the impoverished and by personalizing poverty through Jack Monroe's narratives of her lived experience of it, inviting the reader's pity and refuting reductionist explanations of the causes of poverty. Monroe also challenges austerity through practices derived through her personal knowledge gained during her struggle to survive and eat healthily on i¾£10-a-week food budget. This combination of narrative and survival practices written evocatively and eloquently resonate powerfully with readers; however the response to Monroe's blog highlights a deep uneasiness in British society over growing levels of poverty, and deep divisions over who is responsible for addressing it; and more fundamentally, over identifying and defining the modern poor and modern poverty.
