Title: Re: [PEN-L:21021] Re: Re: free trade CORRECTED YET AGA
What is her critique of Sen?

she says in this piece that while agreeing that the proximate cause of the great toll of the 1943 bengal famine was wartime deficit financing,  the ultimate cause was the increased vulnerability which resulted from lowered nutrition, as a direct result of secularly falling per capita food output arising in turn from colonial export policy (a fact totally ignored by Sen). sometime long ago she also subjected his understanding of property rights to critique as well.
