Starvation and the State (eBook, PDF)

Famine, Slavery, and Power in Sudan, 1883-1956

Beschreibung

Sudan has historically suffered devastating famines that have powerfully reshaped its society. This study shows that food crises were the result of exploitative processes that transferred resources to a small group of beneficiaries, including British imperial agents and indigenous elites who went on to control the Sudanese state at independence.
