Anthropology 342 - Pastoralist Peoples

Institution:

St Lawrence University

Subject:

Description:

A seminar course in which individual participation, both in speech and in writing, is extremely important. We look at the past, present and future of pastoral nomads, with special reference to East Africa. Readings focus on how the women and men of these communities have defined themselves and how they have been perceived and defined by others. Evaluation of the ways pastoral communities are adapting to changing political, economic and social situations in East Africa allows us to consider the appropriateness of national policies of rangeland development and to recognize possible future trends in these areas. Also offered through African Studies.
