This book examines the nexus between political borders, pastoral
nomadism, and human security in Africa. It uses a host of applied
interdisciplinary insights to analyse social, political, and
cultural processes, circumstances, and consequences to showcase the
human security crisis in the context of climate change, inter-group
relations, leadership strategies, institutions, and governance
within the region. With a special focus on West Africa and Nigeria,
the volume discusses crucial themes that highlight the role of
borders in the security architecture of the region which include, *
Political economy of herdsmen-farmers' conflicts in West Africa; *
The scarcity-migration perspective of the Sahel region; *
Population pressure, urbanization, and nomadic pastoral violence in
West Africa; * Human trafficking and kidnapping for ransom in
Nigeria; * Drivers of 'labour' migration of Fulani herders to
Ghana, and other topics. A key contribution to a pressing issue,
this volume will be of interest to scholars and students of
history, political science, anthropology, geography, international
relations, literature, environmental science, and peace and
conflict studies.
