Description

This Routledge book examines the critical disconnect between wasteful consumption in developed nations and persistent hunger affecting millions in the developing world. Drawing from research conducted by the Open University's Development Policy and Practice group, the work provides analytical frameworks and practical insights for addressing global food security challenges. The text combines case studies demonstrating how food aid has been leveraged for political purposes with detailed explorations of market dynamics and human nutritional needs. By moving beyond emotional responses to systemic problems, this Earthscan publication equips readers with evidence-based understanding of food distribution, economic pressures, and policy interventions necessary for meaningful change in global food systems.

Key Features

The Food Question addresses the stark contrast between overconsumption in wealthy nations and hunger in developing countries, providing context for understanding global food inequities.

This Routledge publication includes case studies that reveal how donor countries have used food aid as a political tool rather than purely humanitarian relief.

The book explores the complex relationships between market forces and human nutritional needs, offering analysis of how economics shape food access.

Developed by the Open University's Development Policy and Practice research group, the work combines academic rigour with practical insights for policy makers and activists.
