Abstract

Despite the recent developments food security is one of the common problems of humanity. In order to eliminate this problem, various initiatives are taken in the fields of political and international relations backed by many academic studies that are conducted to scrutinize the dynamics of the problem and inspire the policies to be implemented. This study aims at providing macro solutions to the problem through the study of the relationship between food security and corruption in view of variables such as unemployment, dependent population and per capita income. Thus, the panel data of 75 countries between the years 2012-2016 have been analysed using Driscoll and Kraay Method. According to the obtained results, corruption, although minor, has an impact on food security. Thus, in order to realize food security the following actions need to be taken: minimizing bureaucracy; increasing interaction with the public power for the sake of activities that would support good governance of the society and non-governmental organizations; minimizing the human factor by using technological innovations more effectively in public services; and putting the deterrent laws that would eliminate favouritism into effect.

宏观视角下的腐败对粮食安全的影响

尽管最近有了一些发展，粮食安全仍然是人类的共同问题之一。为了消除这一问题，在政治和国际关系领域采取了各种主动行动，并得到许多学术研究的支持，这些研究是为了仔细审查问题的动态并启发要执行的政策。本研究旨在从失业率、受供养人口、人均收入等变量出发，通过对粮食安全与腐败关系的研究，为这一问题提供宏观解决方案。因此，使用Driscoll和Kraay方法分析了2012-2016年间75个国家的面板数据。根据获得的结果，腐败虽然轻微，但对粮食安全有影响。因此，为了实现粮食安全，需要采取以下行动:尽量减少官僚主义;增加与公共权力的互动，以便开展支持社会和非政府组织善政的活动;在公共服务中更有效地利用技术创新，尽量减少人为因素;并将消除偏袒的威慑法律付诸实施。

期刊介绍： Future of Food: Journal on Food, Agriculture & Society (FOFJ) was founded in 2012 in order to provide a platform for scientific debate on agriculture and food-related themes with the goal of a sustainable future for people and planet. The journal is aimed at contributing to debates on sustainable food production and consumption, and is most interested in tackling the most important challenges to the global agri-food system, such as hunger and malnutrition, depletion of natural resources, climate change, threats to biodiversity, and inequity in the agrarian sphere. The journal understands itself as a multi-disciplinary effort and is especially designed to foster interaction between different disciplines and approaches. Hence it invites inputs from social and natural sciences, arts and humanities, academics and scholar-activists, civil society and agroecology practitioners. The journal is attempting to reach its goal by providing open access to readers and allowing contributions without submission fees or publication fees. Contributors are kindly asked to keep in mind that the journal is a non-profit endeavour and that staff time is limited. The journal cannot provide guarantees or financial support for any submission and cannot accept legal responsibility for any stage of the submission process. The Editorial Board is made up by a range of international experts who devote time and energy to peer review and its members deserve gratitude and recognition for their excellent work. All communication between authors, editors, reviewers and editorial staff is conducted in an atmosphere of mutual respect. The journal will not tolerate racism, religious, ethnic and national chauvinism, misogynous and hate language and reserves the right to bar anyone who disrespects these principles from using the platform.
