Download or read book The Political History of American Food Aid written by Barry Riley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-25 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American food aid to foreigners long has been the most visible-and most popular-means of providing humanitarian aid to millions of hungry people confronted by war, terrorism and natural cataclysms and the resulting threat-often the reality-of famine and death. The book investigates the little-known, not-well-understood and often highly-contentious political processes which have converted American agricultural production into tools of U.S. government policy. In The Political History of American Food Aid, Barry Riley explores the influences of humanitarian, domestic agricultural policy, foreign policy, and national security goals that have created the uneasy relationship between benevolent instincts and the realpolitik of national interests. He traces how food aid has been used from the earliest days of the republic in widely differing circumstances: as a response to hunger, a weapon to confront the expansion of bolshevism after World War I and communism after World War II, a method for balancing disputes between Israel and Egypt, a channel for disposing of food surpluses, a signal of support to friendly governments, and a means for securing the votes of farming constituents or the political support of agriculture sector lobbyists, commodity traders, transporters and shippers. Riley's broad sweep provides a profound understanding of the complex factors influencing American food aid policy and a foundation for examining its historical relationship with relief, economic development, food security and its possible future in a world confronting the effects of global climate change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. Discusses how local and regional procurement (LRP) can provide opportunities to enhance U.S. food aid. In today's environment of increasing emergencies and growing global food insecurity, the U.S. and other donors face intense pressures to feed the world's expanding undernourished population. In Sept. 2008, it was reported that high food prices had resulted in the number of undernourished people reaching a record 963 million. Most bilateral donors of food aid have switched from commodity-based in-kind food aid to a cash-based food assistance program. The large majority of U.S. food assistance is for U.S.-grown commodities purchased competitively in the U.S. and shipped to recipient countries on U.S.-flag carriers. Charts and tables.
