Definition
- Anyone attempting to define famine must be aware of the significant challenges involved. Definitions involve distinctions, but in the case of famine, such distinctions are especially fraught, not just because relief operations require “definitional clarity” but because the capacity to assign and apply meaning can be a powerful tool used to obscure or deny the violence done unto others.
