| Description: |
A study of the steppe region of Inner Asia, historically dominated by Mongol culture, Buddhist-Shamanist religion, and an economy based on mobile pastoralism. It discusses the possible demise of the nomadic way of life, arguing that mobility and district-level management are necessary for success. |
| Synopsis: |
The vast steppe region of Inner Asia is historically dominated by Mongol culture, Buddhist-shamanist religion and an economy based on mobile pastoralism. Now, as its constituent states - China, Russia and Mongolia - adapt to market conditions, this long-standing cultural economic zone is seen to be facing more radical change than at any previous time in its past. |
