The Global Famine Game: Toxic Aid, A Weapon of War, Perverse Economics

The Global Famine Game: Toxic Aid, A Weapon of War, Perverse Economics

This book was written by someone who has worked for over half a century across some of the poorest countries on our planet. He has been a distinguished academic and member of a team awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. But this is not an academic book for scholars and researchers. It is aimed at the ordinary person of goodwill in the “rich world” who deeply cares about the wider world and does not understand why horrendous poverty has not been solved after years of public appeals. Through a detailed analysis and individual examples, Benny Dembitzer tells us what happens in poor communities where everything is turning for the worse. THE GLOBAL FAMINE GAME explains how we have come to accept the new normal of over 30,000 people dying of starvation every day - EVERY SINGLE DAY of every week, of every month, of every year, across the world.We are ill-served by our politicians, journalists, and academics who have made it acceptable to us to ignore this plague of biblical proportions. Our own lack of information and the shortage of regular news make this tragedy seem distant and the challenge impossible to overcome. .
