  46. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follows: A famine in China from 1958 to 1960 estimated to have killed about twenty-five million people. The reason why that's called a political crime-an ideological crime-which was discussed in most detail by Amartya Sen; it's part of the work for which he won the Nobel Prize. Sen is an economist who treated this as an ideological crime for food reasons. He said it wasn't a matter of intent; they didn't intend to kill anybody. It's just that the ideological instructions were such that it happened. It was a totalitarian state where no information about what was happening ever got back to the center. They couldn't take any action because that's what happens in a totalitarian state. So it was a reflection of the totalitarian instructions, a huge massacre that wasn't intended. They didn't intend to kill twenty-five million people, but it was still a major massacre, and it's correct to call it one of the major atrocities of the twentieth century, and the worst single component of the crimes of Communism.
