Books by John Madeley

This is an examination of the feasibility of halving world hunger by 2015. It looks at: BSE, foot and mouth and salmonella; declining food variety/quality; and disappearing topsoil/ biodiversity in rural areas. It argues for a green, low-external input approach that can feed the hungry.

Explores some key questions regarding the year 2000 World Trade Organisation (WTO) Agreement on Agriculture. Will free trade in food help or hinder the abolition of hunger - or will it chiefly benefit transnational corporations? Will free trade help small farmers find new markets in the North?

Based on original interviews with prominent thinkers and campaigners from across the world, A People's World provides practical alternatives to economic globalization, from regulating transnational corporations to cancelling foreign debt.
