Amazon.com description: Product Description: The third volume of Drought and Man contains case studies used in the long in-depth study set up by IFIAS and the Aspen Institute following the Sahel drought. They consider areas in Latin America, particularly northeast Brazil, the case of Tanzania, and discuss colonial disjunction in Sahelian countries. The presentation of each chapter has been written with the purpose of introducing the subject within its proper context and, at the same time, showing how each study confirms the structural 'crisis' explained in the project.
