This is the first comprehensive study of Hadendowa Beja pastoralism
in Sinkat Province, Eastern Suda. The book discusses the effects of
the drought in the 1980s and shows the strategies for survival and
for pastoral rehabilitation. The various chapters deal with the
effects of drought and of human activities on the natural
environment; how pastoral migration patterns were affected and how
links to commodity and labour markets aggravated the effects of
drought; socio-cultural changes are dealt with as well, following
increased interaction between regional populations. The final
chapter discusses planning problems in the region and argues that
in areas such as the Red Sea Hills, the recurrent pastoral
disasters cannot be blamed only on the pastoralists and their
activities, but must be related to wider economic and political
contexts, in which the pastoral groups are becoming increasingly
marginalised. The book is based on material from the Red Sea Area
Programme, a joint research venture between the universities of
Khartoum and Bergen.
