Summary
For over fourty years, Hans Singer has played a major role in the international debate on food aid. His views on food aid as providing an opportunity, as well as challenge to achieving food security for the neediest people in the poorest countries have provided a balanced assessment and reasoned account when much of the criticism of food aid has been based on prejudice, polemical argument and anecdotal evidence. What motivated his interest in food aid and what have been some of his many outstanding contributions to this controversial form of international assistance? This paper brings together, for the first time, his major contributions and synthesizes his views and findings.
