The Geopolitics of Hunger,2000-2001:Hunger and power

Widespread hunger continues to exist at the run of the century, despite the efforts of scores of international relief organizations. Why? The authors of The Geopolitics of Hunger, 2000-2001 draw on both research and their firsthand field experience to explore the use of hunger as a weapon in food crises around the world. They also discuss strategies to counter inequitable food distribution in complex, manipulative situations and review food policies to combat hunger and attain food justice. Founded in 1979 to fight against hunger and advocate for the legal right to food, Action Against Hunger is one of the leading international organizations working to assist victims of man-made famines.
