Hardback. Condición: New. What lies ahead for rural Africa, given a rapidly increasing population, climate change, poverty, inequality and projections of an increasing vulnerability to natural hazards and food shortages?Bringing together scholars in ecology, agriculture, economics, human geography and cultural anthropology, from Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Germany, The Netherlands and the UK, this book focusses on social-ecological transformation and future-making in rural Africa, especially in areas of rapid land-use change following the establishment of development corridors, conservation areas, and large-scale infrastructure projects. In Africa, discussions on the way forward are particularly conflict-ridden because people do not agree about desirable goals, because the gap between winners and losers seems to be bigger than elsewhere, and because the struggle for desirable futures is embedded in a problematic history of foreign domination and exploitation. Focussing on eastern and southern Africa, topics examined range from the history of conservation initiatives and wildlife protection to visions of green development, from the gender implications of extreme climate events on pastoral economies to the use of information and communication technologies on farms and mobile money in geographically remote territories, from large-scale energy infrastructure projects and growth corridors to local ways of managing risk. The volume opens with reflections on African utopic registers of the future and conceptual decolonization in African futurity.CONTRIBUTORS: Martin Ajei, Michael Bollig, Maxmillian Chuhila, Peter Dannenberg, Clemens Greiner, Prince K.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -HIV/AIDS represents a major bulwark to Africa's progress. Since its discovery some 25 years ago, the disease has emerged as the most troubling public health hazard in recent memory. Recent literature on HIV/AIDS suggests that a complex mix of economic, social, cultural and political factors is driving-up the prevalence of the epidemic in Africa in particular, and the world at large. Although considerable efforts have been put in place to reduce its spread, crucial risk behavioural factors associated with HIV/AIDS have not been sufficiently explored. This work therefore attempts to identify, categorize, analyse and present a holistic picture of the different risk behaviours associated with HIV/AIDS. This research has proposed a new bottom-up driven preventative strategy for fighting HIV/AIDS, which blends current informative and educative campaigns on HIV/AIDS; empowering young people towards alternative ways of livelihood, while at the same time, caring for the affected in ways that prioritizes dignity, respect and individual empowerment. It is hoped that this work would strengthen and re-orient current efforts underway to prevent HIV/AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa and the world. 64 pp. Englisch.…
