New Book: Knowledge Sovereignty among African Cattle Herders

We wish to announce a book by Zeremariam Fre of the UCL Bartlett School. It was published by UCL Press in June 2018.

It is available on the Pastoral and Environmental Network in the Horn of Africa (PENHA website.

See the attached flyer and the Summary. .

“This ground-breaking ethnography of Beni-Amer pastoralists in the Horn of Africa shows how a partnership of conventional science and local indigenous knowledge can generate a hybrid knowledge system which underpins a productive cattle economy. This has implications for sustainable pastoral development around the world”. Jeremy Swift, Emeritus Fellow, Institute of Development Studies, University of Sussex.

We had hoped to include an article by Zeremariam Fre in Ag4Dev on the subject but this proved not to be possible.
