Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Some states deny their own citizens one of the most fundamental human rights: the right to food. Rhoda E. Howard-Hassmann, a leading scholar of human rights, discusses state food crimes, demonstrating how governments have introduced policies that cause malnutrition or starvation among their citizens and others for whom they are responsible. The book introduces the right to food and discusses historical cases (communist famines in Ukraine, China and Cambodia, and neglect of starvation by democratic states in Ireland, Germany and Canada). It then moves to a detailed discussion of four contemporary cases: starvation in North Korea, and malnutrition in Zimbabwe, Venezuela, and the West Bank and Gaza. These cases are then used to analyse international human rights law, sanctions and food aid, and civil and political rights as they pertain to the right to food. The book concludes by considering the need for a new international treaty on the right to food. Some governments' policies cause malnutrition or starvation, denying the human right to food. This book describes historical and contemporary cases of state food crimes, especially in North Korea, Zimbabwe, Venezuela, and the West Bank/Gaza, and analyses how international law, sanctions, food aid, and civil and political rights affect that right.
