Abstract
With the recent onslaught of global natural disasters and terrorism attacks, all people should be preparing themselves. To allow for this necessary preparation, the world community should recognize an international human right of all people to live in an environment of self-sufficiency. International law scholars have recognized similar rights and have often mentioned the importance of self-sufficiency in the context of these other rights, but none have yet cited self-sufficiency as an independent right. In this article, Haley Palfreyman Jankowski argues that such a right is inherent to every individual and is a natural outgrowth of several basic recognized human rights.
