In this title, two of the world's most prominent critics of the global food system dissect the causes of hunger and the food price crisis, locating them in a political economy of capitalist industrial production dominated by corporations and driven by the search for profits for the few instead of the welfare of the many. Drawing on the rich experiences of small farmers, peasant communities, indigenous nations and cooperatives, the authors show that even as the old system unravels, alternative modes of agricultural production are alive and offer the prospect of sufficient food for people along with equity and ecological sustainability.
