Global, Regional and Local Dimensions of Western Sahara’s Protracted Decolonization by Raquel Ojeda-Garcia,Irene Fernández-Molina,Victoria Veguilla Pdf

This book explores the traces of the passage of time on the protracted and intractable conflict of Western Sahara. The authors offer a multilevel analysis of recent developments from the global to the local scenes, including the collapse of the architecture of the UN-led conflict resolution process, the advent of the War on Terror to the the Sahara-Sahel area and the impact of the ‘Arab Spring’ and growing regional security instability. Special attention is devoted to changes in the Western Sahara territory annexed by Morocco and the Sahrawi refugee camps in Algeria. Morocco has adapted its governance and public policies to profound socio-demographic transformations in the territory under its control and has attempted to obtain international recognition for this annexation by proposing an Autonomy Plan. The Polisario Front and Sahrawi nationalists have shifted their strategy and pushed the centre of gravity of the conflict back inwards by focusing on pro-independence activism inside the disputed territory.

Crisis and Conflict in Agriculture by Rami Zurayk,Eckart Woertz,Rachel Bahn Pdf

This volume sets out to explore the dialectic relating agriculture, crisis and conflict, and attempts to expand the knowledge on these interactions. Part 1 of the volume (chapters 1-6) discusses thematic issues and methodological approaches to understanding the intersection of agriculture, crisis and conflict. Part 2 (chapters 7-20) provides case studies that take a detailed approach to understanding agricultural contexts facing crisis and conflict, or the role played by agriculture within crisis and conflict. Studies are selected from areas that might be expected to feature in such a volume (the Middle East and North Africa, sub-Saharan Africa, South and Southeast Asia, and Latin America) as well as less obvious regions where conflict within agriculture refers not to widespread violence or wars but rather latent or simmering crisis (Central Asia and Europe). Crises stemming from politically-driven violence, natural disasters and climate change are covered, as well as competition over resources.

Impact of conflict-related violence and presence of armed groups on food security: Evidence from longitudinal analysis in Mali by Tranchant, Jean-Pierre,Gelli, Aulo,Masset, Edoardo Pdf

We assess the impact of conflict exposure on households’ food security in rural areas of Mopti, Mali over the period 2012-17. Our main data source is a unique panel dataset of 1,617 households for which the baseline round was collected before the conflict broke out. We estimate the impact of conflict with a weighted difference-in-differences approach. We find that exposure to high level of conflict-related fatalities within a radius of 50km leads to a reduction of daily calorie intake per adult equivalent of 311 kcal (0.39 SD) and a reduction of dietary diversity score by one food group (0.56 SD). The presence of armed groups leads to lower dietary diversity (by 1.2 food group) but has no independent effect on calories. The negative impact of conflict on dietary diversity is concentrated on households with higher scores at baseline. We also estimate whether receiving food assistance mitigates the impact of conflict. We find that school-feeding protects households facing intense conflict by supporting calorie intake.

Les ailes du Sahel by Le Zwarts,Rob G. Bijlsma,Jan van der Kamp,Eddy Wymenga Pdf

'Living on the Edge' examines the function of the Sahel region of Africa as an important wintering area for long-distance migrant birds. It describes the challenges the birds have to cope with – climate change, of course, and rapid man-made habitat changes related to deforestation, irrigation and reclamation of wetlands. How have all these changes affected the birds, and have birds adapted to these changes? Can we explain the changing numbers of breeding birds in Europe by changes in the Sahel, or vice versa?

The African Geopolitical ATLAS 2020 by Claude Biao Pdf

This first edition of Stake experts' African Geopolitical ATLAS aims to provide decision-makers with a snapshot of the geopolitical changes taking place on the continent during the 2018-2019 study period. It is a collection 84 geographical and thematic maps on topics ranging from African countries' military spendings, to the available croplands, or surface water covering. It's a bilingual edition (French, English). The concept is that of a collection of 30 thematic maps and 54 country monographs divided into three parts. To produce this ATLAS, the editing team focused on the decision-making value of the mapped data, i.e. their capacity to provide the essential elements for an informed decision on the chosen themes. As such, it is a public policy-oriented publication, intended to provide useful benchmarks for decision-making. More than just maps, these are 84 outlooks of Africa in 2020.
