"Pastoralists at the Periphery" (book edited by Carole McGranahan and others)

"Pastoralists at the Periphery," edited by Carole McGranahan and others, explores the lives and cultures of pastoralist communities—people who depend on herding animals for their livelihoods—living on the margins of society. The book examines how these groups navigate social, economic, and political challenges, often facing marginalization and environmental pressures. It highlights their resilience, adaptation strategies, and the importance of their knowledge systems. By featuring diverse case studies, the book aims to shed light on the significance of pastoralists in broader discussions about identity, sustainability, and the impact of global changes on local ways of life.
