The
paper explores the links between the current
food crisis, generated by galloping food
prices, and the inherent nature of capitalism.
It discusses the structural issues of
an industry built on profit maximization,
considers the unique aspects of agribusiness
in a global political economy, the role
of the power exercised by huge transnationals
and the states which support their interests.
The paper argues that a look at the causes
of this food crisis and the purported
solutions has much to tell us about what
is wrong with the hegemonic development
model of recent decades.
