This work outlines the importance of local knowledge for
understanding environmental change. African farmers and herders
modify landscapes in far more subtle and unexpected ways than
commonly depicted in environment and development debates. This
interdisciplinary collection uses collaborative research from the
major savanna regions which stretch across Africa to make its case,
and covers topics such as land users and landscapes, pastoral
ecologies and policy, producers and resources. Environmental
thinking about Africa is dominated by narratives of degradation and
chaos. The contributors demonstrate that the empirical foundations
of such long-held views are shaky at best.
