The diversity of security that proposed in 1994 United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) human security concept after the end of Cold War and concurrent globalization have put more international or external influence on States and beyond their sovereign components in the foreign policy formulation. The book decentralizes these security needs to specific food security in Africa and the multiple factors in national and international system that contribute to its availability or scarcity, which include activity of States and non-state actors. Also, critically examines the system of capitalism which birthed out illicit financial flows and some of its vicious elements such as arm sales and trafficking, export and import control as precursors that trigger known drivers like economic recessions, low investment in research infrastructure, poverty, wars or conflicts and climate change in Africa and contribute to food and economic insecurity through some foreign policy adopted by developed and developing countries. The analysis was done by adopting coefficient concept, that involves consideration of factors that have relation to specific factor or characteristics.
