dc.description.abstracteng	The global food consumption today is environmentally and socially not sustainable. While greenhousegas emissions increase due to changing diets, the dubble burden of malnutrition persists especially in emerging economies of the Global South such as India. This thesis explores the triangle of food, health and sustainability with a focus on the Indian middle class as the main drivers of changing diets in urban areas. In four different manuscripts it explores changing diets of the Indian middle class in Bengaluru applying the theoretical frameworks of food transition and practice theory. This way the thesis contributes to understand the impact of the Indian middle class on a sustainable food transition in the country as well as the meaning of place for changing diets.	de
