Land and People of the Shire Highlands, Malawi
This book offers the
reader a portrait – a representation no less – of the social life and
culture of the peasant-smallholders of the Shire Highlands, situated in
Southern Malawi. It explores the relationship between the people of the
Shire Highlands and the natural landscape – in all its diversity and
dynamic complexity. It is an ethnographic study focussing specifically
on the peasant-smallholders of the Highlands, who constitute around 80
per cent of the current population and their complex, multi-faceted
relationship to the land and its diverse biota.
