The global food system is badly broken and is failing millions of people around the world. Food insecurity occurs not only in Africa and Asia, it also exists in the USA where food stamp usage is at an all-time high. Policy decisions made today, affect what kind of food security scenarios will prevail in the near future. In this sense, attaining food security emerges as a fundamentally political enterprise. To better understand the political issues such an enterprise must address, it is important to identify the sources of social and economic inequalities, as they play a critical role in defining access to the political spehre. Securing and expanding and enduringly securing such space(s), is a disitinctly political task as expressed by the emergent, momentarily semi-dormant 'Occupy Now' movements.

This publication consists of two essays on social inequality and an interview conducted with non-conformist professor of economics. All three contributions were published in 2013 with "Newtopiamagazine" (and can be viewed there in the archives section), an online venture that functions as a place where a versatile group of individuals express their views and experiences within a structure of respected peers. These three articles are brought together here in a format that allows the reader to access them as a unit. Featuring an explanatory introduction and two bonus short commentaries at the end.
