Every twelve seconds, somewhere in the world, a child under the age of five dies as a result of malnutrition. That's three million children a year. A total of almost nine million people. Every year. We know that, we know the figures. Hunger is said to be the biggest solvable problem in the world. But it doesn't look like we're going to solve it any time soon. And that is a disgrace.
Mart\u00edn Caparr\u00f3s spent five years travelling the globe to map this shame: He has been to Niger, where hunger looks like what we imagine it to be; to India, where more people go hungry than in any other country; to the USA, where one in six people suffer from hunger.<\/p>\n

e have enough to eat, while one in three people suffers from obesity; in Argentina, where food is produced for 300 million people, even though many citizens can no longer afford meat.  
At the end of this journey is a unique book: great reportage, historiography and angry manifesto. According to Caparr\u00f3s, hunger is not a natural catastrophe that befalls people as fate would have it. Hunger is the most blatant expression of the gigantic social inequality in a world in which the richest one per cent own more than all the others put together.<\/p>\n
