Summary / Abstract (Note) | Like the financial crisis, the severity of the food crisis caught gobernments around the world by surprise. This confusion and unpreparedness was vividly reflected by the former leader of the world's richest and most powerful nation, US President George W. Bush, whose initial reaction was to blame developing countries implicitly for the crisis by noting that when poor countries like India and China prosper, they start demanding better nutrition and better food and when demand is high, that causes the pricess to go up. |
