Abstract:This is the second volume of the Arab Subsistence Monograph Series, which presents the results of the research project 'A study of human subsistence ecosystems in Arab societies: to combat livelihood degradation for the post-oil era' (2008-2013) initiated by the Research Institute for Humanity and Nature in Kyoto, Japan. The volume deals with mangrove conservation and afforestation in coastal areas in the Middle East and neighbouring Arab societies. Three of the thirteen contributions are concerned with African countries: Mangrove use on the Kilwa island, southern Swahili coast in Tanzania (Ryo Nakamura); Relationships between humans and one-humped camels in coastal zones of the arid tropics: an anthropological case analysis of the Beja on the Red Sea coast of eastern Sudan (Hiroshi Nawata); Coastal resource use by camel pastoralists: a case study of gathering and fishing activities among the Beja in eastern Sudan (Hiroshi Nawata).
