G'day all, Anybody up to date on Sen's stuff? Apparently he's famous because he found out that the presence or absence of food in a region is not a reliable indicator on whether or not there'll be a famine (so says the Beeb). While that sounds fair enough as far as it goes, I assume he's now famous because he proposed compelling reasons for this (other than the bleeding obviously logical gap between 'need' and 'demand' and the tendency of governments to use discretion over food as a political resource). 'Night all, Rob.
