Pastoral Resource Competition in Uganda. Case Studies into Commercial Livestock Ranching and Pastoral Institutions.

The book consists of two case studies that explore the social and economic transformation between two distinct pastoral groups in Uganda, the people of Ankole and of Karamajo. 

The case studies examine the tensions between local production systems and development interventions. The authors offer a fresh analysis of the issues that figure large in contemporary Ugandan ethnographic and political studies – ranching and pastoral institutions where the cattle move with seasons and droughts.
