Briefing from ROAPE Volume 2 Number 3
Famine Relief & People's War

The famine in the Sahel and Ethiopia was seen in a previous issue (RAPE 1) as largely the result of the agricultural exploitation carried out for the benefit of international capital and local privileged classes. This report discusses famine in Guine and Mozambique as part of the heritage of Portuguese colonialism, but argues that the liberation movements of these territories will fight famine effectively as part of the politics of mass mobilisation.
