Global Hunger
The Aesthetics and Politics of
Global Hunger is a rigorously comparative study made up
of ten essays by well-established scholars from universities
around the world. Since modernity, we have been inhabitants of a
globe increasingly connected through discourses of equal access
for all humans to the resources of the planet, but the
volume emphasizes alongside this reality the flagrant
politicization of those same resources. From this emphasis, the
essays in the volume place into relief the idea that ideological
and aesthetic discourses of hunger could inform ethical thinking
and practices about who or what constitutes the figure of the
modern historical human.
