Household Food Security: Concepts and Definitions: An Annotated Bibliography

Published on 1 January 1993

The concept of ‘food security’ is found as early as the 1970s, but the concept of ‘household food security’ is more recent: the bulk of the literature dates from the 1980s. This annotated Bibliography contains nearly 200 items which together trace developments in the concept of household food security. The evolution of food security, from concern with national food stocks in the 1970s to a preoccupation with individual entitlements in the 1980s, is an important part of the story told by this Bibliography.
