Breakfast Cereal: A Global History (Reaktion, 2023) by Dr. Kathryn Dolan presents the long, distinguished and surprising history of breakfast cereal.
Simple, healthy and comforting, breakfast cereals are a perennially popular way to start the day around the world. They have a long, distinguished and surprising history – around 10,000 years ago, with the advent of agriculture, people began breaking their fast with porridges made from wheat, rice, corn and other grains. It was only in the second half of the nineteenth century, however, in the United States, that a series of entrepreneurs and food reformers created the breakfast cereals we recognize today: Kellogg’s Corn Flakes, Cheerios and Quaker Oats, among others.
In this global, entertaining and well-illustrated account, Dr. Dolan explores the history of breakfast cereals, including many historical and modern recipes that the reader can try at home.
This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

The FBI on Monday morning arrested two New York City residents “in connection with opening and operating an illegal overseas police station," according to a Justice Department press release.
Lu Jianwang and Chen Jinping were "charged with conspiring to act as agents of the [People’s Republic of China] government, as well as obstructing justice by destroying evidence of their communications with [a Chinese Ministry of Public Security] official,” the Justice Department said.
Michael Cunningham, a research fellow in the Asian Studies Center at The Heritage Foundation, joins today's episode of "The Daily Signal Podcast" to discuss his thoughts on the arrests, China's dismissal of the allegations, and the leaked Pentagon documents relating to Taiwan. (The Daily Signal is the news outlet of The Heritage Foundation.)

On this episode of the Hayek Program Podcast, Peter Boettke interviews Federica Carugati, on reframing modern political economy. Carugati begins by sharing how she began her study of political economy and explains her work on premodern case studies, detailing which factors to consider when selecting premodern societies to apply to the modern day, including elements of size, homogeneity, and exclusion. Boettke and Carugati discuss the process of institution formation and the importance of creative and adaptive solutions. Later, they discuss how we ought to reconstruct the political economy and social science lenses, creating a space for a broader notion of theory and a richer theory of empirical research. Carugati emphasizes the need to build models where we can consider the complexity of human behavior, social norms, values, etc. They end their conversation with considerations of neoliberalism, governance by consent, and lessons on the importance of discipline and passion.
Carugati is a lecturer in history and political economy at King’s College in London and author of A Moral Political Economy: Present, Past and Future and Creating a Constitution: Law, Democracy and Growth in Ancient Athens.
