Popis: In the perspective of Environmental Law, the juridical-sociological aspect addresses the problem for the Right to Food, which has been intensified by the lack of equity, social justice and mainly by environmental degradation. Based on theoretical research, the Constitution and international treaties on the subject, the problem of hunger is studied, with emphasis on the Nagoya Protocol – a new international instrument for access and distribution of genetic resources. It aims to analyze the geopolitics behind the hunger issue; the indiscriminate use of agrochemicals; the monopoly of seeds; and the lives wasted in the process of maintenance/circulation in the food market.
