Segnaliamo la prossima pubblicazione, in programma per il 1° settembre 2025, di “Moving Deserts. Interrogating Development and Resilience in the Pastoral Drylands of Northern Kenya” a cura di Greta Semplici per The White Horse Press. Il volume sarà disponibile in open access in formato digitale ma è già possibile prenotarne la versione fisica sul sito web di The White Horse Press.
Moving Deserts re-examines the concept of resilience, as applied in the development sector. It gives central stage to the voices, experiences, memories and everyday lives of the people whose resilience is the subject of much international attention and financial aid flows. Building a bridge between the perspectives of practitioners and local communities, Moving Deserts reveals a story about life, struggle and hope among Turkana herders, a story woven by following the movements and relations of the author’s hosts and interlocutors during fourteen months of ethnographic fieldwork.
