520 This edited volume summarizes information about the
situational context, threats, problems, challenges and
solutions for sustainable pastoralism at a global scale.
The book has four goals. The first goal is to summarize
the information about the history, distribution and
patterns of pastoralism and to identify the importance of
pastoralism from social, economic and environmental
perspectives. The results of an empirical investigation of
the environmental and socio-economic implications of
pastoralism in representative pastoral regions in the
world are also incorporated. The second goal is to argue
that breaking coupled human-natural systems of pastoralism
leads to degradation of pastoral ecosystems and to create
an analysis framework to assess the vulnerability of
worldwide pastoralism. Our analysis framework provides
approaches to help comprehensively understand the
transitions and the impacts of human-natural systems in
the pastoral regions in the world. The third goal is to
identify the successful models in promoting coupled human-
natural systems of pastoralism, and to learn lessons of
breaking coupled human-cultural pastoralism systems
through examining the representative cases in regions
including Central Asia, Southern and Eastern Asia,
Northern and Eastern Africa, the European Alps and South
America. The fourth goal is to identify the strategies to
build the resilience of the coupled human-natural systems
of pastoralism worldwide. We hope that our book can
facilitate the further examination of sustainable
development of coupled human-natural systems of
pastoralism by providing the summaries of existing data
and information related to the pastoralism development,
and by offering a framework for better understanding and
analysis of their social, economic and environmental
implications
