This book should be mandatory reading for anyone who mistakenly believes that the global hunger crisis is over. (Stephen Devereux is a development economist with 25 years experience in food security, poverty and rural development in 13 African countries. He has been a Fellow of the Institute of Development Studies (IDS) at the University of Sussex since 1996. He has written or edited 7 books on food security, famine and social protection, and has published articles in more than 20 journals)
Reseña del editor:
Millions across the world face the daily challenge to find enough food to survive. Hunger is on the rise globally, with more than 1.2 billion people suffering from food insecurity. Rising prices are further restricting food access.

In this deeply informative study, Majda Bne Saad identifies the causes for global hunger embedded in the current global political and economic system and highlights the key challenges facing food deficit countries. She shows how Western countries share the blame for global hunger through their support for subsidies to agricultural production and biofuels, which have created new challenges to food security worldwide.

Bne Saad argues that, as world population rises from 7 billion to 9.2 billion by 2050, there needs to be a ‘second green revolution’ to grow more food. She looks at the factors constraining low-income nations from achieving food security and considers policies which could generate income and enhance individuals' entitlement to food.
