在金融紧缩的时候，而那些最有风险的人正在遭受全球经济崩溃的蹂躏，“紧缩”的概念已成为现代政府的主旋律，并被认为是负责任的管理司法管辖区的必要条件。这种情况的后果是要求那些已经遭受粮食不安全和贫困的人进一步做出牺牲，以应对并非由他们造成的局面。虽然2007-2008年的全球金融危机使紧缩成为一些国家财政问题的解药，但认为政府紧缩始于这场危机是错误的。例如，英国在撒切尔执政期间采取了严厉的紧缩措施，当然，在第二次世界大战后的几年里，其他高收入经济体也采取了类似的措施。现在不同的是紧缩的规模以及全球金融和粮食系统的联系，这样地球仪一个地区的变化就会影响到其他地区。
At a time of financial restraint while those most at risk are suffering from the ravages of the global economic meltdown, the notion of ‘austerity’has become a leitmotif for modern government and is believed to be a necessity for the responsible management of jurisdictions. The effect of this is to ask those already suffering from food insecurity and poverty to further make sacrifices, for situations not of their making.While the global financial crisis of 2007–2008 brought austerity to the fore as an antidote to the fiscal problems endured by some countries, it would be a mistake to believe that austerity in government started with this crisis. The UK, for example, experienced severe austerity measures under the Thatcher years, and of course the immediate post-World War Two years saw similar measures in other high-income economies. What is different now is the scale of austerity and the link globally in the financial and food systems so that changes in one part of the globe have impacts elsewhere.
