- State-sponsored terrorism kills more people
and destroys more properties than what are
actually reported by the mainstream bourgeois media. - Cheap food imports and food aid from the Global North
jeopardize the livelihood of countless local peasants in the
Global South by depressing the prices of their products. - To meet the production target, over-time is forced upon
workers by the management in many factories and offices. - Hunger is not a mere medical affliction.
It is by and large a socio-economic problem.

malnutrition renders it as a mere personal problem,
not a social one.
(Nancy Scheper-Hughes) - Racism, ageism, sexism and elitism
are examples of structural violence.
The quality of life (QOL) of people is adversely affected if
they are marginalized and oppressed by the social structures.
