The human right to food

One of the key points that María José Bernal Ballesteros' work brings to the specialized literature is that it combines the national and international legal framework on the right to food. The vision she addresses is not only legal, but also focuses on various aspects of public policy, since one of the major problems of the enforceability of social rights is their multidimensional quality, since there are no complete ways to enforce them, but they are immersed in public policy, court decisions and social programs implemented by the three levels of government. In this regard, this book provides fundamental concepts and elements for legal operators to have a broad vision of the issues and factors that affect the right to good food. Another aspect that gives additional value to the work is its relationship between good food, poverty and vulnerability. This negative triad is always present in the multiple violations suffered by broad sectors of the Mexican population that are unprotected from mechanisms that make effective the content of Article 4 of the Mexican Constitution.
