Title A name given to the resource The Changing Culture and Nature of Namibia: Case Studies Description An account of the resource "Namibia is an arid to semi-arid country whose people traditionally know how to use this ecologically limited environment. The political, social, and economic changes since the country has become independent made common interest focus on ecological problems and sustainable land use. Aspects of politics, landscape ecology, ethnography, economy, geoscience, and oceanography are the bases for articles and posters published in this book which thus represent recent results of research work."
