Answer 1

Answer:

Subsistence crisis can be defined as an extreme situation where the basic means of livelihood are endangered. In France, due to the rapid expansion of the population from 23 million in 1715 to 28 million in 1789, a subsistence crisis occurred. A subsistence crisis is a crisis caused by economic factors (generally high food prices) and which in turn may be caused by either natural or man-made factors,[1] which threatens the fooc supplies and the survival prospect: of large numbers of people (it is considered famine if it is extremely severe and large numbers oflives are lost). A subsistence crisis can be considered genuine if it is visible in demographic data.

It was in France that the notion of a subsistence crisis was first formulated by Meuvret in 1946, and greatly popularised by Goubert in 1960 through his influential study of the Beauvaisis in Beauvais.[2] The theory of subsistence crises, in its contemporary guise, was first formulated by Meuvret in 1946.
