Description

The Contested Floodplain provides a detailed look at the institutional changes affecting common pool resources in the Kafue Flats of southern Zambia. This academic work examines the management of pasture, wildlife, and fisheries among the Ila and Balundwe agro-pastoralists and Batwa fishermen. Through social anthropological field research, the book explores the transition of a once rich floodplain into a degraded resource area. It tracks how local common property regimes, which previously regulated communal access effectively, have shifted toward state property. This study is essential for readers interested in how institutional shifts impact the livelihoods of local communities and the health of natural environments.
