This book provides an in-depth analysis of one of the most
persistent and perennial types of conflict in Africa-
pastoralist-farmer conflicts - and the linkages with conflict
management and resolution, vulnerability and displacement,
government capacity and deficits, and the role of local and
international governmental and non-governmental agencies in the
specific Nigerian context. Conflict-induced displacement generates
humanitarian and protection issues particularly when the government
is unwilling to carry out its responsibility of protecting the
civilians in flight. The book fills the intellectual vacuum created
on the implications the conflict management mechanisms adopted in
resolving pastoralist-farmer conflict have on the protection of
internally displaced persons (IDPs). It extensively describes the
displacement and associated risks and vulnerabilities of IDPs
arising from the conflict and the efforts of the different
stakeholders in responding to the protection issues. It examines
various conflict management mechanisms adopted by stakeholders in
resolving pastoralist-farmer conflict and how they have affected
the protection of IDPs. It also elucidates the imperativeness of
internally displaced persons' involvement in the
management/resolution processes of pastoralist-farmer conflict,
which will not only impact the resolution of the conflict but also
provide opportunity for their issues of protection to be addressed.
