ТЕОРЕТИЧЕСКИЕ АСПЕКТЫ ПРОДОВОЛЬСТВЕННОЙ БЕЗОПАСНОСТИ В УСЛОВИЯХ НЕОПРЕДЕЛЁННОСТИ

Abstract

This article examines the theoretical aspects of food security, especially in the context of modern uncertainty and variability characterizing modern world conditions. In it, the author presents a new understanding of food security in conditions of uncertainty and risk. Particular attention is paid to considering food security not only as ensuring the availability of food, but also as a guarantee of their availability and acceptable cost for all social groups, including vulnerable segments of the population. The author presents a theoretical concept of food security, which includes three main elements: accessibility, sustainability and stability. They are interrelated and interdependent and together determine the ability of the food system to provide the population with suffi cient and stable food supplies. A key aspect of this concept is the “uncertainty” factor, which can arise due to various changeable and unpredictable factors, such as climate change, economic crises and natural disasters.
