- The economist Amartya Sen's entitlement account of famines is the sharp reminder here: severe deprivation can occur without any absolute fall in supply, which is exactly why the declaration must independently verify the condition rather than infer scarcity from the fact that people are going without.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Was it audited? Yes. A second, independent pass read the citation against the article text and recorded a verdict.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
