Silent Violence: Food, Famine, and Peasantry in Northern Nigeria - Geographies of Justice and Social Transformation

Looking at the food crisis that struck the West African Sahel during the 1970s, Watts examines the relationships between famine, climate, and political economy. Through a longue durée history and a detailed village study, Watts argues that famines are socially produced and that the market is as fickle and incalculable as the weather.
