My grandfather, now deceased, a man of sturdy Norwegian-American race peasant, who later became a newspaper editor and political activist during the First World War, used to say: "A man can get used to anything with time, except dying Also ... and this, with some practice. "
Well, what is the fate of things, it seems we, the vast majority of the human race, we are in the process of verifying this maxim with regard to the availability of our daily bread itself.
The food is one of those peculiar things that is hard to live without. We all tend to take for granted that our local supermarket will continue to offer whatever we wish, in abundance, at affordable prices or nearly so. Yet living without adequate food is the growing prospect that hundreds restraunt supply of millions, if not billions, of humans will face in the coming years.
In a sense, this is really paradoxical. Our planet has everything you need to get nutritious natural food to feed the entire world population, several times. This is a fact, despite the ravages of industrialized agriculture over the past half century and beyond.
Eliminate emergency reserves The ability to manipulate at will the price of essential foods worldwide - almost without regard to the actual availability of and demand for cereals to this - is fairly recent. And this also includes restraunt supply barely. Until the grain crisis of the mid-'70s, there was no single "world price" for grain, the benchmark for the price of all foods and food products. Grain prices were determined locally in thousands of exchanges where buyers and sellers met. The beginning of economic globalization was to change all that radically for the worse, when a small percentage of grain marketed at the international level was able to fix the global price for most cereal crops. Since the period of the earliest traces left by Sumerian civilization, about two thousand years before Christ, in the region between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in Iraq today, almost all civilizations have had the habit to keep a stock of inventories of crops grains - up to more recent times. The reason they were wars, drought and famine. When properly stored, grain could be safely stored for a period of about seven years, enabling reserve stocks in case of emergency. After the Second World War, Washington established a General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) which was to serve as a wedge to boost free trade among major industrial nations, particularly in the European Community. During the initial negotiation discussions, agriculture was deliberately excluded from the negotiating table at the insistence of the Europeans, especially the French, who regarded political defense of the European Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) and European agriculture protections as non-negotiable. Starting in the 80s, with the political crusades restraunt supply of Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan, the extremist free market extremist positions of Milton Friedman of the Chicago School became increasingly accepted by leading European power circles. Step by step the resistance agenda of free trade in agriculture dictated by Washington restraunt supply was going to dissolve. After more than seven years of intense bargaining, pressure and lobbying activities, in 1993 the EU finally accepted the GATT Uruguay Round Agreement, which called for a sharp reduction in protectionism of national agricultures. At the center of the Uruguay Round Agreement on the understanding there was a major change: national grain reserves as a manifestation of the responsibility of governments, had said he concluded.
