“…In contrast to famine (Chappell et al, 2013;Séguy & Théré, 2016) or hunger strikes (Fayeulle et al, 2010), which have distinct meanings-one arising from a scarcity of food and the other involving a refusal to eat as a form of protest to make a lasting impact (Chalit Hernandez, 2022) -fasting represents a purposeful and intentional abstention from food for a de ned period, driven by a speci c goal (Attinà et al, 2021;Mattson et al, 2017).…”

Confronted with the myriad challenges currently confronting the world, or those that may emerge in the very near future, pressing questions are emerging from the minds of all those with benevolent intentions. These inquiries primarily revolve around issues related to energy and the environment, extending to the food security of around 8 billion human beings on Earth. Given the gravity of these overarching threats, decisive and immediate action is imperative. Although a wealth of ideas exists, the crux lies in the amalgamation of these ideas and a genuine commitment on our part, serving as the key to a future that is less shrouded in uncertainty. It is within this framework that this work underscores the potential of a highly specific dietary approach in mitigating the detrimental impact of human activity on planet Earth. While this study may depict a form of objectification of human beings, possibly prompting individuals to idealize themselves and pursue exceptionally challenging goals, it also serves as a powerful symbol of the right to information. Its purpose is to raise public awareness of such realities. This study emphasizes the need for an open-minded approach and, crucially, underscores the importance of medical expertise, as human health is inherently complex and varies on a case-by-case basis, extending beyond mere statistical analysis.

“…A study of prison hunger strikes in France showed that 15% of strikes were not monitored at all; only 28% of doctors respected the patient’s wishes; and most hunger strikers (90.7%) received no help with refeeding at the end of their strike, despite the high risk of medical complications (Fayeulle et al 2010). The European Court of Human Rights affirms states’ right to force-hydrate and force-feed hunger strikers in case of therapeutic necessity, unless hunger strikers signed a “statement of nonintervention,” as they may do in the Netherlands and some Swiss cantons.…”

“…While prison authorities recognize some of these general responsibilities, such as the recording and medical monitoring of the hunger strike, they do not typically respect incarcerated persons’ right to hunger strike. As noted above, French prison authorities fail to systematically provide medical supervision for hunger strikes (Fayeulle et al 2010). Pennsylvania’s DOC mandates daily medical staff visits but charges hunger strikers a $25 co-pay for each (DC-ADM 820)—a forbidding deterrent given that most work assignments pay between $0.19 and $0.51 per hour (ACLU and GHRC 2023).…”

The Right to Hunger Strike

Hunger strikes are commonly repressed in prison and seen as disruptive, coercive, and violent. Hunger strikers and their advocates insist that incarcerated persons have a right to hunger strike, which protects them against repression and force-feeding. Physicians and medical ethicists generally ground this right in the right to refuse medical treatment; lawyers and legal scholars derive it from incarcerated persons’ free speech rights. Neither account adequately grounds the right to hunger strike because both misrepresent the hunger strike as noncoercive and nonviolent. I articulate an alternative, dual account of the right to hunger strike. On the remedial argument, the right to hunger strike should be legally protected as a right to petition for redress, in light of incarcerated people’s structural vulnerability to abuse and given inadequate grievance mechanisms. The constructive argument derives the right to hunger strike from the right to resist oppression and stresses the normative permissibility of the use of coercive tactics to defend one’s liberty interests in the face of carceral oppression.
