Produktbeschreibung
Causality link between conflict and poverty
might have two directions; however, there is
consensus that conflict causes poverty. Knowledge on
livelihood is the departure point for poverty
reduction. This book is about livelihood of Nuba
people of Sudan, and how it has been affected by a
state of chronic conflict. The context of the study
is origin and culture that make the identity of Nuba,
their marginalization, war, and contemporary
livelihood. The war has induced a social rift between
the community segments as people were forced to split
between the two warring parties. Either way, they
have suffered a reign of violence, terror, raids,
rapes, and lootings at hands of fighting troops on
both sides. The book highlights the implications of
such situation upon their livelihoods, specifically
the social capital. It includes testimonies from
people who have survived the war. Conflict usually
seems to have only negative dimension; have the Nuba
experienced a positive one? Experience of the IDPs
answers this question. The book is multidisciplinary,
and should be especially useful for development
professionals, sociologist, anthologists and whoever
concerns about minorities
