Connecting chefs, state agencies, global capital, and Indigenous producers, this \"gastronomic revolution\" makes powerful claims: food unites Peruvians, dissolves racial antagonisms, and fuels development. \u003ci\u003eGastropolitics and the Specter of Race \u003c\/i\u003ecritically evaluates these claims and tracks the emergence of Peruvian gastropolitics, a biopolitical and aesthetic set of practices that reinscribe dominant racial and gendered orders. Through critical readings of high-end menus and ethnographic analysis of culinary festivals, guinea pig production, and national-branding campaigns, this work explores the intersections of race, species, and capital to reveal links between gastronomy and violence in Peru. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mar?
