This collection of studies, first published in 1985, describes some
contemporary problems of selected pastoral and agro-pastoral
communities of the West African Sahel. Several important features
of the Sahel are illustrated: the significance of seasonal factors
in causing periodic stress amongst people and animals, the economic
uncertainty introduced by interannual climactic variations, as well
as the role of traditional systems of social and economic
organisation in providing some support during periods of need. The
findings presented here are published in co-operation with the
Sahel Institute, a regional research organisation set up in the
early 1970s with representation from eight Sahelian countries -
Cape Verde, Chad, Gambia, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Senegal and
Upper Volta.
