这项研究在1990年出版精装本时受到了广泛的欢迎和讨论。本书分析了现代世界长期存在的饥饿问题,以及公共行动在解决这一问题中所能发挥的作用。第一部分试图对造成饥饿和匮乏的复杂的营养、经济、社会和政治问题提供一个连贯的观点。第二个是关于预防饥荒,特别注意非洲和印度。第三个重点是长期营养不足和相关的匮乏。第二和第三部分包括一些关于世界各地成功采取预防饥饿和饥荒的公共行动的个案研究。本书的第四部分汇集了前几章的主要主题和关注点,并对公共行动在消除饥饿方面的作用提供了一个综合观点。
This study was well-received and widely discussed when it appeared in hardback in 1990. It is devoted to analysis of the enduring problem of hunger in the modern world, and of the role that public action can play in countering it. The book is divided into four parts. The first attempts to provide a coherent perspective on the complex nutritional, economic, social and political issues involved in the causation of hunger and deprivation. The second deals with famine prevention, paying special attention to Africa and India. The third focuses on chronic undernourishment and related deprivations. Parts two and three include a number of case studies of successful public action for the prevention of hunger and famines in various parts of the world. The fourth part of the book draws together the main themes and concerns of the earlier chapters, and provides an integrated view of the role of public action in eliminating hunger.
