Book excerpt: Grâce à la grande diversité des organisations biologiques, notamment des bio-systèmes forestiers, la Caraïbe fait partie des 34 Hotspots actuels de la biosphère. C'est une aire géographique extraordinaire pour l'évolution du vivant, car les différents canevas régionaux - géomorphologiques, pédologiques, climatiques - associés aux îles, à la bordure continentale et à l'isthme ont induit une pluralité de biotopes. Ce qui a conditionné autant de communautés floristiques et faunistiques, de physionomies et de paysages. Tous les écosystèmes de l'espace intertropical y sont représentés. Néanmoins, les sociétés successives depuis la découverte des Amériques, tout en utilisant les ressources offertes par les écosystèmes du Nouveau Monde, les ont architecturés et les paysages notamment végétaux du présent sont des témoins pertinents de ce processus. L'érosion biologique régulière, consubstantielle à la croissance des productions humaines, reste, encore aujourd'hui, un danger pour le développement de ces territoires : bien des aspects floristiques et faunistiques sont encore inconnus. En quelque sorte, dans cette partie du monde la recherche est " insaturée ". Le colloque de décembre 2005 sur les " Écosystèmes forestiers des Caraïbes " organisé par le Conseil Général de la Martinique et piloté scientifiquement par l'Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (sous la direction de Philippe Joseph), a mis en relief la problématique de la biodiversité des terres qui enserrent la mer des Caraïbes. Et, plus largement, celle de la planète tout entière confrontée au changement climatique et à ses conséquences à long terme sur les milieux anthropisés, singulièrement les modifications des frontières écosystémiques et les espèces envahissantes. La mise en perspective des données obtenues par les chercheurs de champs disciplinaires variés, qui relèvent des sciences exactes, humaines, juridiques et économiques, a fourni une somme importante de connaissances et de méthodes. Celles-ci permettent d'éclairer la décision publique, en particulier pour améliorer les outils de gestion et de planification des forêts caribéennes. Par cette initiative, le Conseil Général de la Martinique, à l'instar de son président, a indiqué la voie qui devrait permettre, à long terme, une conservation et une valorisation de toutes les diversités biologiques. Au regard des modifications climatiques futures, en effet, le potentiel évolutif des bio-systèmes doit être, par tous les moyens, préservé.

Download or read book Pastoralism and Socio-technological Transformations in Northern Benin written by Georges Djohy and published by Göttingen University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pastoralists throughout Africa face increasing pressures. In Benin, governmental development policies and programmes in crop farming are changing power relations between herders and farmers to favour the latter. How are the Fulani pastoralists responding to these threats to their existence? Georges Djohy explores the dynamics in local use of natural resources and in inter-ethnic relations resulting from development interventions. He combines the approaches of science and technology studies – looking at the co-construction of society and technology – and political ecology – looking at the power relations shaping the dynamics of economic, environmental and social change – so as to throw light on the forces of marginalisation, adaptation and innovation at work in northern Benin. Having worked there for many years, Djohy has been able to uncover gradual processes of socio-technological change that are happening “behind the scenes” of agricultural development involving mechanisation, herbicide use, tree planting, land registration and natural resource conservation. He reveals how farmers are using these interventions as “weapons” in order to gain more rights over larger areas of land, in other words, to support indigenous land grabbing from herders who had been using the land since decades for grazing. He documents how the Fulani are innovating to ensure their survival, e.g. by using new technologies for transport and communication, developing new strategies of livestock feeding and herd movement, and developing complementary sources of household income. The Fulani are organising themselves from local to national level to provide technological and socio-cultural services, manage conflicts and gain a stronger political voice, e.g. to be able to achieve demarcation of corridors for moving livestock through cultivated areas. They even use non-functioning mini-dairies – another example of development intervention – to demonstrate their modernity and to open up other opportunities to transform their pastoral systems. This book provides insights into normally hidden technical and social dynamics that are unexpected outcomes of development interventions.

Book excerpt: A text which starts with a tropical approach by considering the natur e, diversity and resources of tropical regions. Climate and its biolo gical implications are analysed in detail, especially with regard to heat and water. The approach continues its environmental emphasis with its treat ment of nutritional resources and disease. There is an in depth treat ment of genetics and breeds of cattle, sheep and goats. Farming syste ms and economic considerations round off what is a wide-ranging and detai led introduction to animal production in the tropics, with an empha sis of ruminants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most complete, nonpartisan source of information on this hot agronomic topic available today, this book brings together a diverse group of papers and data to resolve the debate between sedimentologists and soil scientists and agronomists over whether the effects of soil erosion on carbon and atmospheric CO2 is beneficial or destructive. Divided into four sections, it offers data on how soil erosion affects soil, water, and air quality. Topics include mineralization rate, inundation, sediment deposition, and global warming potential, as well as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide emissions, and the implications of soil erosion on the global carbon cycle and carbon budget.

Book excerpt: Picturing Pity is the first full length monograph on missionary photography. Empirically, it is based on an in-depth analysis of the published photographs taken by Norwegian evangelical missionaries in Northern Cameroon from the early nineteen twenties, at the beginning of their activities in this region, and until today. Being part of a large international movement, Norway sent out more missionaries per capita than any other country in Europe. Marianne Gullestad's main contention is that the need to continuously justify their activities to donors in Europe has led to the creation and maintenance of specific ways of portraying Africans. The missionary visual rhetoric is both based on earlier visualizations and has over time established its own conventions which can now also be traced within secular fields of activity such as international development agencies, foreign policy, human relief organizations and the mass media. Picturing Pity takes part in the present "pictorial turn" in academic teaching and research, constituting visual images as an exciting site of conversation across disciplinary lines.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pastoralism refers to the type of farming system which uses extensive grazing on grasslands for livestock production. This type of farming covers 25 per cent of the world's land area and supports 20 million households. It makes substantial contributions to the economies of developing countries, although agricultural encroachment, conflict and drought continue to erode this way of life. This publication considers key policy issues and trends involved in attempts to improve the livelihoods of pastoralist families and communities.
