This book investigates the ways in which people in the Lake Chad
region that divides Nigeria, Niger, Chad, and Cameroon deal with
the crises of violence, jihadism, drought, and climate change that
continue to afflict the area. In 2014 Boko Haram expanded into the
Lake Chad region, prompting a counter-insurgency response, and
exacerbating pre-existing social and ecological challenges. Drawing
on extensive ethnographic research, this book investigates how
people within the liminal space of this key border region respond
to and navigate the unpredictability which typifies their
day-to-day lives. Building up a picture of individual and community
experiences of crisis, the book gradually demonstrates the complex
interactions between economic circuits, political orders,
socio-religious processes, and labour practices which operate in
the region. This book will be of interest to researchers across
African studies, security studies, political science, and border
studies.
