This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 3.0 IGO licence. It is free to read at Oxford Scholarship Online and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. This volume is the last of three addressing a wide range of policy issues relating to the role of public action in combating hunger and deprivation in the modern world. It deals with the background nutritional, economic, social,
and political aspects of the problem of world hunger. Volume 3 deals with the strategic options for the elimination of endemic hunger. The topics covered include: the comparative
extent of hunger and deprivation in different parts of the world; the influence of food production; the interconnections between economic growth and public support; the role of economic diversification in reducing vulnerability; the potential impact of direct public provisioning on living standards; and the politics of public action. In addition to general analyses, the book examines the international relevance of a number of specific country experiences in Asia, Africa, and Latin America
(including those ofBangladesh, Brazil, China, India, Kenya, Nigeria, and Sri Lanka). Taken together, these essays provide a comprehensive and authoritative analysis of the problem of
hunger and deprivation, and an important guide for action.
