International author Raj Patel discussing his book Stuffed and Starved: Markets, Power and the Hidden Battle for the World Food System, with an introduction by Dr Gyorgy Scrinis, Globalism Institute, RMIT. Raj Patel’s definitive account of the global food system ranges across GM crops, history and export issues, rising levels of obesity and other health crises. Stuffed and Starved takes us into the supermarket aisles and reveals the stories behind the products in our trolleys, some of them very dark indeed.
