内容説明
By emphasizing on the Pamir region a comprehensive overview
of path-dependent and recent developments in a remote mountain region is
provided in this book. Overall neglect in the mountainous periphery is
contrasted by shifting the centre of attention to the Pamirs
situated at the interface between South and Central Asia. From colonial
times to now there has been a debate on grasping and locating the area. Here
field-work based contributions are collected to provide a variety of
perspectives on the Pamirs highlighting transformation and transition in
Post-Soviet societies as well as in Afghanistan and Pakistan. The similar
ecological environment across borders features the common ground
while analyzing development processes in a set of case studies that aim at
highlighting certain aspects of regional development.
