The 1954 Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act,
effectively began the modern era of food aid. Over the past fifty
years the lives of hundreds of millions of people worldwide have
been improved. Despite this it remains one of the most
misunderstood and controversial instruments of contemporary
international policy.
"Food Aid After Fifty Years" explores the motivations and
modalities of food aid and examines issues which impinge on its
effectiveness. The book utilizes analytical and empirical accounts
of food aid to resolve key misunderstandings and explore long
standing myths. An alternative strategy is presented for recasting
food aid, making it more effective in alleviating poverty, hunger
and vulnerability.
"Food Aid After Fifty Years" provides a clear, comprehensive and
current explanation of a wide range of issues surrounding food aid
and its policy and operations and will prove vital to students of
Development Economics and Development Studies and those working in
the field.
