Food Aid: The Challenge and the Opportunity (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780198285182)

Food aid, which has played a key role in responding to the crises afflicting millions of people in developing countries, is the focus of much political discussion, both nationally and internationally. While it has achieved notable successes, there is still doubt and criticism regarding the appropriateness of food aid, and confusion about the deep-rooted problems which perpetuate these calamities. This book provides a lucid discussion of the central issues involved, presenting a balanced assessment of the uses and misuses of food aid and relating these to the complex realities of the international economy.
