Mass Starvation: The History and Future of Famine

Mass Starvation: The History and Future of Famine

by Alex De Waal (Author)

Synopsis

The world almost conquered famine. Until the 1980s, this scourge killed ten million people every decade, but by early 2000s mass starvation had all but disappeared. Today, famines are resurgent, driven by war, blockade, hostility to humanitarian principles and a volatile global economy.
