| 概要 | Those who herd in the vast grassland region of Inner Asia face a precarious situation as they struggle to respond to the momentous political & economic changes of recent years. In The End of Nomadism?...Caroline Humphrey & David Sneath confront the romantic, a historical myth of the wandering nomad by revealing the complex lives & the significant impact on Asian culture of these modern "mobile pastoralists." In their examination of the present & future of pastoralism, the authors recount the extensive & quite sudden social, political, environmental, & economic changes of recent years that have forced these peoples to respond & evolve in order to maintain their centuries-old way of life. Using extensive & detailed case studies comparing pastoralism in Siberian Russia, Mongolia, & Northwest China, Humphrey & Sneath explore the different paths taken by nomads in these countries in reaction to a changing world. In examining how each culture is facing not only different prospects for sustain-ability but also different environmental problems, the authors come to the surprising conclusion that mobility can, in fact, be compatible with a modern & urbanized world. While placing emphasis on the social & cultural traditions of Inner Asia & their fate in the post-Socialist economies of the present, The End of Nomadism? investigates the changing nature of pastoralism by focusing on key areas under environmental threat & relating the ongoing problems to distinctive socioeconomic policies & practices in Russia & China. It also provides lively contemporary commentary on current economic dilemmas by revealing in telling detail, for instance, the struggle of one extended family to make a living. This book will interest Central Asian, Russian, & Chinese specialists, as well as those studying the environment, anthropology, sociology, peasant studies, & ecology. Explores the complex life and significant economic role of modern mobile pastoralists. 続きを見る |
