Research Idea: Explore the Linkage Between Hunger and Humiliation

Dear HumanDHS network friends

Please find below a note from George Kent and the suggestion to explore the link between hunger and humiliation.

Kind regards
Brian Ward

My dear Evelin –

Thank you for your kind message of March 22. It has been eight years since Tromso? How time does fly! You have certainly moved ahead nicely in that time. Congratulations on the blossoming of your work on humiliation. Very well done!

I would like to join you in Norway this summer, but unfortunately I cannot. I am already planning to participate in the International Peace Research Association conference in Belgium in July, so I cannot manage to come to Norway in June as well. However, I do look forward to seeing you in Hawai’i during 2009. That would be lovely.

I keep thinking it would be interesting to explore the linkage between hunger and humiliation. My human rights approach to the issue would mesh nicely with your interests, since human rights work is centered on concern for human dignity. Are there others in your network that think along these lines?

Aloha, George
