States of Subsistence: The Politics of Bread in Contemporary Jordan

On any given day in Jordan, more than nine million residents eat approximately ten million loaves of khubz arabi the slightly leavened flatbread known to many as pita. Some rely on this bread to avoid starvation; for others it is a customary pleasure.

Drawing on more than a year working as a baker in Amman, Martínez probes the practices that underpin subsidized bread.
