This article analyzes the links between the biological and social spheres established by Josué de Castro in his studies of alimentation. First it looks at how the author introduced modem dietary principles at the same time that hunger and malnutrition were unveiled in parts of Brazil, aiming at the configuration of a national alimentation policy. Second, at it examines how he expanded the debate, giving visibility to the dynamics of states and the political direction of a world that was being dismantled in which hunger and alimentation were an intrinsic part of the spatial distribution of power. In the postwar scenario the dietary principles of quantity, quality, harmony and adequacy were transposed as the guiding principles for a society without hunger at the global scale.
本文分析了若苏埃·德·卡斯特罗在其饮食研究中所建立的生物领域与社会领域之间的联系。首先，探讨作者如何在巴西部分地区揭示饥饿与营养不良现象的同时引入现代饮食原则，旨在构建国家饮食政策。其次，考察他如何拓展这一辩论，使国家动态以及一个正在瓦解的世界的政治走向变得清晰可见，在这个世界中，饥饿与饮食是权力空间分配的内在组成部分。在战后的情形下，数量、质量、和谐与充足的饮食原则被转化为全球范围内无饥饿社会的指导原则。
