Book Synopsis Famine in Africa by : von Braun, Joachim
Download or read book Famine in Africa written by von Braun, Joachim and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though famine has affected many parts of the world in the twentieth century, the conditions that produce famineextreme poverty, armed conflict, economic and political turmoil, and climate shocksare now most prevalent in Africa. Researchers differ on how to address this problem effectively, but their arguments are often not informed by empirical analysis from a famine context. Broadening current theories and models of development for conquering famine, Famine in Africa grounds its findings in long-term empirical research, especially on the impact of famine on households and markets. The authors present the results of field work and other research from numerous parts of Africa, with a particular focus on Botswana, Ethiopia, Niger, Rwanda, Sudan, and Zimbabwe. With these data, the authors explain the factors that cause famines and assess efforts to mitigate and prevent them. Famine in Africa is an important resource for international development specialists, students, and policymakers.
Book Synopsis The Political Economy of African Famine by : R. E. Downs
Download or read book The Political Economy of African Famine written by R. E. Downs and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-19 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1991. This volume explores the combination of political and economic forces that influence different levels of food supply. The book begins with a discussion of famine theories, ranging from cultural ecology to neo-Marxism. Following this survey is a series of essays by anthropologists, geographers, economists and development practitioners that explores the role of Western institutions in African famine, analyzes famine in particular countries, and documents the relationship between famine and gender. This book takes an unusually broad look at famine by including analyses of countries where hunger has rarely been studied and by examining African famine from both African and Western perspectives. Its concluding proposals for eradicating famine make innovative and provocative contributions to current global debates on food and nutrition.

Book Synopsis Famine and Survival Strategies by : Dessalegn Rahmato
Download or read book Famine and Survival Strategies written by Dessalegn Rahmato and published by Nordic Africa Institute. This book was released on 1991 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do peasants do in the face of severe food crisis and ecological stress, and how do they manage to survive on their own? This study revolves around a case study conducted by the author in the awraja (district) in the Ambassel Wollo province in northeastern Ethiopia. This is in the region that was hit hardest by the 1984-85 famine, which Rahmato calls "the worst tragedy rural Ethiopia had ever experienced". The author also critically examines other literature on famine response. The focus of this study is on what happens before famine comes, and how the peasants prepare for it. From a wealth of evidence, the author concludes that the seeds of famine are sown during the years of recovery.
Book Synopsis Why is There Hunger in Africa? by : Jane Boston
Download or read book Why is There Hunger in Africa? written by Jane Boston and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Unit Introduction: For many people in the world, food seems to be constantly at hand. Through television and magazine advertisements, the mushrooming of fast food outlets, and the sheer size of supermarkets, food appears to be an overwhelming presence in Western Europe, much of North America, and parts of Asia. In much of the "developed" world, when there is hunger, it is most likely a result of poverty, not a lack of food. However, in many parts of the developing world, the absence of food is as visible as the presence of food is elsewhere. It is clear that hunger remains a persistent problem throughout the world. During the 1980s, famines in such countries as Ethiopia, the Sudan, and Mozambique provided the world with stark images of widespread hunger and human misery in many parts of the African continent. Although hunger is often associated with the African continent, issues of food security face many parts of the world. The case study in this unit focuses on Africa and issues related to hunger facing the entire continent. However, it is important to remind your students that there are enormous disparities within African countries as well as between countries regarding the actual situation of food production and food availability. Rarely have problems related to hunger been identified by the media and government officials as being connected with the underlying economic, political and environmental difficulties affecting food production and food security. Due in part to the images presented to the casual observer, famine and drought seem so closely related that one recent collection of essays on the Sahelian (West African) famines of the 1970s was entitled Nature Pleads Not Guilty. In their study of hunger in Africa, development practitioners and academics often reflect the perspective of their particular discipline, rather than using a complex, interactive model of the causes of hunger. This leads to the emphasis on one particular problem, such as drought, failures of African governments, or foreign aid.--page 9

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the political, social, and economic connections between gender and the Covid-19 pandemic. The authors offer innovative ideas for recovery that will build a more prosperous, healthy, equitable, and sustainable future for African women and girls, targets identified under Goal 5 (Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment) of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals slated to be achieved by 2030. Within this context, authors identify issues related to the protection of women and girls from poverty, hunger, and gender-based violence; improved healthcare and healthcare workforce experiences; girl-child education; financial inclusion; and entrepreneurship opportunities for women in fintech, tourism, and information, communication and technology (ICT). The book concludes with a discussion of economic empowerment for women that focuses on normalising the ‘un-normal’ outcome of the pandemic. The book will be of value to policymakers, non-profit organisations, practitioners, and scholars who understand the importance of gender equality and women empowerment in the African continent.
