The Changpa of eastern Ladakh and western Tibet have for centuries supplied the fabled Kashmiri shawl industry with its essential raw material\u0000 - pashm. However, many nomadic and semi-nomadic herder families seem disillusioned with their traditional lifestyles and are migrating to settlements near Leh town to become masons, contractors or tour guides. This migration will have significant socio-cultural, economic, strategic and ecological\u0000 ramifications. Efforts are being made to give them reasons to continue with their age-old practices. How do we ensure that ecological concerns are addressed so as to arrive at sustainable growth for all concerned? In this article we discuss these general issues in the particular context of\u0000 Ladakh and put forward some solutions.","PeriodicalId":19318,"journal":{"name":"Nomadic Peoples","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45437767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The self-identity of Bedouin tribes in Sinai has been drawn upon in struggles between Bedouin and governing authorities,\u0000 which in recent history have included two empires and two nation-states. Even now, the Bedouin of Sinai exhibit minimal ties with the religious and political authorities of Egypt, a continuation of trends stretching back to the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This article examines different\u0000 facets of contemporary Sinai Bedouin life and explores the complexity of identity of the Sinai Bedouin through their traditional practices, including oral traditions that provide them with the counter-narratives by which they define themselves.","PeriodicalId":19318,"journal":{"name":"Nomadic Peoples","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43439683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article explores the dynamics of anticipation and how they relate to contestation over land, compensation\u0000 and the benefits of development along the corridor area, finding that a variety of actors have different visions and capacities to position themselves favourably to achieve economic benefits from the corridor. Anticipatory behaviours may be both private and collective, the latter consisting\u0000 of group claims on land prompted by the desire to block private actors, and also to prevent economic or political dominance by other ethnic groups. Thus both private and collective anticipation may exacerbate inequalities and lead to conflict along lines of ethnicity and class. Further, conflict\u0000 may be ignited in an opportunistic manner to remove other potential beneficiaries, which is itself an example of anticipation.","PeriodicalId":19318,"journal":{"name":"Nomadic Peoples","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47600763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
