Description

Democracy and Famine: 37 explores the complex relationship between political systems and food security. While poverty and disease are difficult to eliminate, famines are often preventable. This book examines why the political incentives to prevent these crises are not always present in every society. Inspired by the work of Amartya Sen, this study looks at the hypothesis that democratic institutions and a free press act as protections against famine. By combining qualitative and quantitative evidence, the text provides a deep analysis of how governance affects survival. This volume is part of the Routledge Research in Comparative Politics series, making it a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in the connections between political structures and human welfare.
