Hunger is an issue which has been subject to much rigorous
intellectual examination by economists, philosophers, sociologists,
NGOs and governments. This volume provides a critical overview of
current academic and political perspectives and then compares these
views from thenon-hungry people with those of thehungry
particularly from a broad range of poor communities in India. Their
views are gathered using participatory rural appraisal techniques
and the scale of the material presented is unprecedented. Not
surprisingly, the comparisons show that the perceptions of the
hungry are fundamentally different from those of the non-hungry. It
makes compelling suggestions about how best policy makers can
attempt to eliminate hunger based on what the hungry themselves
suggest. The book also draws attention to the critical role of
Common Property Resources and women in the fight against
under-nutrition, which have so far been largely ignored.
