Governments Push Infant Formula
ISBN: 9789188061188 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. George Kent's book is an articulate and incisive analysis of the ways in which some governments actively promote the use of infant formula. They do this despite the predictable harm it does to children's health. The book is a timely and powerful reminder to governments in the rich and poor world of their obligations under international law to protect children's health and the right to food through framework legislation and the regulation of non-State actors including corporations. Effective remedies are urgently required.

Caring About Hunger
ISBN: 9789188061157 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this world of abundant resources and huge wealth, hunger cannot be understood simply as a problem of food production. It is also a matter of human relations. Hunger grows out of widespread indifference and exploitation. The goal of ending hunger has been achieved in many places, including places where people have little money. In stable, strong communities, where people care about one another's well-being, no one goes hungry. That caring is strengthened when people work and play together. This insight tells us the direction we need to take to move toward a world without hunger. The problem...

The Politics of Children's Survival
ISBN: 9780275937232 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The central concern of this pioneering study is the high rate of child mortality worldwide and the prospects for its reduction. Taking as his major focus socioeconomic factors and their effect on children's survival, George Kent asks not only what technical interventions might be undertaken within meager health budgets, but also why are those budgets so inadequate? He examines the social and political roots of child mortality around the world and finds that the problem arises from widespread powerlessness in the populations of less developed countries. Thus, he argues, remedies should... The central concern of this pioneering study is the high rate of child mortality worldwide and the prospects for its reduction. Taking as his major... |

Freedom from Want: The Human Right to Adequate Food
ISBN: 9781589010567 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. There is, literally, a world of difference between the statements "Everyone should have adequate food," and "Everyone has the right to adequate food." In George Kent's view, the lofty rhetoric of the first statement will not be fulfilled until we take the second statement seriously. Kent sees hunger as a deeply political problem. Too many people do not have adequate control over local resources and cannot create the circumstances that would allow them to do meaningful, productive work and provide for themselves. The human right to an adequate livelihood, including the human right to...

Children in the International Political Economy
ISBN: 9780312128708 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The first line of responsibility for children lies with their parents, but what if the parents fail to look after their children? Who else is involved, and what should they do? Children in the International Political Economy examines the moral responsibilities of different individuals and agencies towards children and argues that some responsibilities should be codified as concrete legal duties. If all else fails, children must look to the international community for help. Thus international agencies should recognize specific obligations to look after the well-being of children around the...

Fish, Food, and Hunger: The Potential of Fisheries for Alleviating Malnutrition
ISBN: 9780367013912 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Because world hunger continues to be a critical issue in contemporary society, alternative food sources–as well as improved production, processing, and distribution methods–must be found. In this broadly based and thorough study, the author argues that fish production can make a significant contribution toward improving the food supply of impoverished people, serving as a possible remedy for malnutrition. Dr. Kent’s suggestions for maximizing the potential of national and international fisheries to alleviate malnutrition are illustrated with case studies from the Philippines, Thailand,...

Ending Hunger Worldwide
ISBN: 9781594518928 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Why does hunger persist in a world of plenty? Ending Hunger Worldwide challenges the naive notion that everyone wants hunger to end, arguing that the powerful care - but not enough to make a difference. George Kent argues that the central focus in overcoming hunger should be on building stronger communities. It is these communities which can provide mutual support to ensure that people don't go hungry. Kent demonstrates that there is not a shortage of food but of what Amartya Sen terms 'opportunities', and that developing tight-knit communities will lead to more opportunities for the hungry...
