商品描述

This volume examines land and resource contestations in the East African Albertine region, where Uganda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda, Burundi and Tanzania intersect. It is one of the most biodiverse regions on the continent, and became highly contested when Uganda discovered oil there in 2006. The resource contestation in this region has resulted in ongoing conflict, and has defined and re-defined identity and citizenship. Contributors of this volume succinctly bring out the major forces that have been responsible for resource contestations and conflicts together with an emphasis on the existing mechanisms for peaceful co-existence, particularly in relation to alternative dispute resolution mechanisms within indigenous knowledge systems.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討東非阿爾伯丁地區的土地和資源爭議,該地區位於烏干達、剛果民主共和國、盧旺達、布隆迪和坦桑尼亞的交界處。該地區是非洲大陸上生物多樣性最豐富的地區之一,並在2006年烏干達發現石油後變得高度爭議。該地區的資源爭議導致持續的衝突,並界定和重新界定了身份和公民身份。本書的作者簡明扼要地介紹了導致資源爭議和衝突的主要力量,並強調了現有的和平共存機制,特別是與土著知識體系中的替代爭議解決機制相關的機制。
