Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. This book emerged from decades of agro-ecological research in the Karakoram Mountains and the Cholistan Desert of Pakistan conducted in collaboration with local scientists, PhD scholars, and villagers in partly very remote oases that exhibit a historically unusually high diversity of agro-p…astoral land use systems. Due to their resilience under isolated harsh environmental conditions, as outlined in Part 1 these oases exemplify many centuries-old sustainable systems of resource use that are currently undergoing rapid transformation. The volume depicts a mixed-methods approach that combines classical multi-location biodiversity research and molecular analyses with a collection of 169 Folk Tales. Taken together, the book draws attention to the sustainability lessons that are encoded in ancient social-ecological systems.In an environment whose interacting environmental stresses of droughts, floods, harsh winters, hot summers, wanted and unwanted vistors, and fragile political conditions could hardly be controlled by small agropastoral communities, their members found ways to navigate constraints and uncertainties. Sustainable water use (SDG 6, Clean water) is key to the ancient, gravity irrigated terrace agriculture practiced in the mountain and lowland desert oases. Given millennia-old trading between East and West but also South and North across Asia and with Europe, the crops cultivated and the animal husbandry systems practised in these areas of Pakistan are extraordinarily diverse and adapted to varying resources (SDG 15, Life on land). This equally applies to fruit and cereal species but also to livestock, mainly yaks and goats, that thrive on the summer pastures surrounding the oases. Responsible consumption and production (SDG 12) are inherent to these systems and a prerequisite for their mere existence. Part 3 of the book takes scientific account of this rich biodiversity. In managing their oasis systems, local residents are highly dependent on each other. Collaboration is essential for survival and this has formed strong social commitments (SDG 11, Sustainable communities). Resource governance is encoded in cultural practices, and has been passed on in a large reservoir of Folk Tales. Part 2 of the book presents a unique collection of such tales reported by village elders. In original language videos readily available through QR codes and their careful English transcriptions, peasants narrate historical events, traditional practices of every-day life, mystical fairy-tales with symbolic meanings, and general lessons of moral as part of an ancient heritage of humanity. Given that the linkage between socio-cultural heritage and bio-physical diversity has been little explored in scientific research, this book provides a starting point for a deeper, interdisciplinary analysis of the ancient social-ecological systems of Pakistan's desert oases, which takes into account different knowledge systems. It documents a rapidly vanishing bio-cultural diversity preserved for many centuries and testifies of eye-level partnerships that allowed their documentation.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. This handbook provides a comprehensive and authoritative overview of pastoralism, combining major theoretical debates with an interdisciplinary and comparative perspective on pastoral systems across the world.Approaching pastoralism as a social-ecological system, this volume synthesizes cur…rent knowledge about how pastoralists make a living and organize social life while managing herds in diverse and often highly variable environments. Understanding pastoralism in this holistic way requires an approach that bridges disciplines: not only anthropology but also rangeland ecology, animal science, agricultural economics, veterinary epidemiology, and related fields. This handbooks chapters are organized into eight parts that examine the emergence of pastoralism; its biophysical foundations; the economics of pastoral production; adaptive strategies; social and political organization; new methodological and analytical approaches; development and policy perspectives; and possible futures for pastoral systems. Together, these contributions advance the field by offering both a state-of-the-art guide and a source of inspiration for future research. This volume is designed to serve as a reference for scholars seeking to launch innovative, impactful studies, as well as for policymakers and practitioners working to design effective interventions that support pastoral livelihoods.This handbook is an indispensable resource on pastoralism for students, researchers, and professionals.Chapters 1, 3, 7, 13, 17, 28 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.
