Not Seeing the Cattle for the Elephants
The decline of wildlife in Central and West African border parks has been directly linked to Islamic terrorism in the region in media and government discourse. Using Waza National Park in the Far North Region of Cameroon as a case study, we show that wildlife declines in the park long preceded the appearance of Boko Haram, the extremist group best known for kidnapping over 200 girls in northern Nigeria. We also show that there is no evidence that…
"Co-producing research in the "Red Zone
Fieldwork rarely goes to plan. In geography, anthropology, earth sciences and other research activities that rely on field data, trade-offs are required between planning and execution. This article addresses the adaptation of research projects to changing fieldwork conditions. It is based on a case study of interdisciplinary and international "Coupled Human and Natural Systems" research situated in the Far North of Cameroon. The research project …
Social-ecological feedbacks lead to unsustainable lock-in in an inland fishery
Mobile Pastoralists in the Logone Floodplain Distribute Themselves in an Ideal Free Distribution
We examined whether mobile pastoralists in the Logone floodplain of Cameroon distribute themselves according to the ideal free distribution (IFD), which predicts that the number of individuals in each area is proportional to the quality and quantity of resources in each area and that all individuals have access to the same amount of resources. We used the concept to assess the distribution of grazing pressure over available common-pool resources …

Ethical predicaments
Some have argued that anthropologists have a moral responsibility to advocate on behalf of research subjects suffering from structural and other forms of violence. However, advocacy is not without its problems; action taken on behalf of one's research subjects may have adverse consequences for others. This is our current predicament. Violence and insecurity have always been major themes in our work with mobile pastoralists in the Far North Region…
An Integrated Approach to Modeling Grazing Pressure in Pastoral Systems
Pastoralist Responses to Floodplain Rehabilitation in North Cameroon
Immigration
Integrated Conservation and Development Projects (ICDPs) aim to stimulate conservation without the previous negative experiences for local people, but pay little attention to their long-term impact such as immigration. The rehabilitation of the Logone floodplain in North Cameroon, the core activity of the Waza-Logone ICDP, has led to a 34% increase of sedentary fishermen and a multiple number of temporary fishermen. Whereas livestock pressure tri…

The Demise of the Nomadic Contract
Introduction The discussion concerning the access pastoralists have to rangelands in West Africa has focused primarily on their complementary relations with agricultural populations (Breusers et al. 1998; Driel 1999). Descriptions of these relations have emphasised the symbiosis in which both parties benefited, differentiating little between villagers and their chiefs. The last decade, however, has witnessed increasing competition over natural re…
