What does the persistence of popular mobilization around food tell us about the politics of subsistence in an era of integrated food markets and universal human rights? This book interrogates this period of historical rupture in the global system of subsistence, getting behind the headlines and inside the politics of food for people on low incomes. The half decade of 2007-2012 was a period of intensely volatile food prices as well as unusual levels of popular mobilization, including protests and riots. Detailed case studies are included here from Bangladesh, Cameroon, India, Kenya and Mozambique. The case studies illustrate that political cultures and ways of organizing around food share much across geography and history, indicating common characteristics of the popular politics of provisions under capitalism. However, all politics are ultimately local, and it is demonstrated how the historic fallout of a subsistence crisis depends ultimately on how the actors and institutions articulate, negotiate and reassert their specific claims within the peculiarities of each policy. A key conclusion of the book is that the politics of provisions remain essential to the right to food and that they involve unruliness. In other words, food riots work. The book explains how and why they continue to do so even in the globalized food system of the 21st century. Food riots signal a state unable to meet a principal condition of its social contract, and create powerful pressure to address that most fundamental of failings. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in food, society and environment. 606 $aFood riots$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aRight to food 606 $aFood supply$xGovernment policy 610 $aAlex Shankland 610 $aAnuradha Joshi 610 $aBiraj Patnaik 610 $aBonface Omondi 610 $aCelestine Nyamu Musembi 610 $acrisis 610 $aDevangana Kalita 610 $aDipa Sinha 610 $aEgídio Chaimite 610 $aeconomy 610 $aFerdous Jahan 610 $aglobal 610 $aLauren Sneyd 610 $aLucio Posse 610 $aLuís de Brito 610 $aMichael Sambo 610 $aMuhammad Ashikur Rahman 610 $amoral 610 $aPatta Scott-Villiers 610 $aregime 610 $aSara Burke 610 $asecurity 610 $aVaibhav Raaj 615 0$aFood riots$xHistory 615 0$aRight to food. 615 0$aFood supply$xGovernment policy. 676 $a363.809051 702 $aHossain$b Naomi 702 $aScott-Villiers$b Patta 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910476758603321 996 $aFood riots, food rights and the politics of provisions$92564237 997 $aUNINA
