Uvin, Peter: The International Organization of Hunger.
-Kegan Paul International, 1994-
Graduate Institute of International Studies, Geneva. First edition. xvi+334 pages with index. Cloth a little marked. Very good in like dustjacket. This international political economy study analyzes the international regime and outcome of hunger as well as their effects on the incidence of hunger. In doing so, it touches a large variety of other disciplines such as trade and development economics, demography,. international finance and rural society. Four issue areas that are globally upheld as solutions to the problem of world hunger are studied in detail. These are: family planning to diminish population growth and the number of people to be fed; food trade, to import food according to comparative advantage increase the total supply of food in developing countries; structural adjustment, to increase the efficiency of economy-wide resource allocation and stimulate food production; and food aid, to temporarily assist the developing countries in their economic development. The relevance of these cases to the theory of international political economy and international organization is discussed throughout.
