Famine as political violence: 'There is food, but no access to food'
When we think of famine, we quickly think of a natural disaster, while there are often political causes as well. A famine like Ukraine's Holodomor (1932–1933) is now recognized by more and more states as genocide. "The current war makes it easier to recognize the complex violence of the Holodomor as political violence," says cultural scholar Charley Boerman, who researched the memory culture of famines. On 6 February, she will defend her dissertation at Radboud University.
