    This guy says though you'd think the main cause of famine would be natural disaster, that's not true. He blames politics and war.

    "Refuting the enduring but erroneous view that attributes famine to overpopulation and natural disaster, he shows how political decision or political failing is an essential element in every famine, while the spread of democracy and human rights, and the ending of wars, were major factors in the near-ending of this devastating phenomenon. " (Author Alex De Waal)
