The contributors, most of them geographers from both East Africa and France, explore three cases: Mount Kenya (Kenya), Mount Elgon (on its Ugandan side), and the Uporoto Mountains (Tanzania). They adopt a comparative perspective with earlier research and other East African mountains, such as Mount Kilimanjaro. The 12 chapters focus on one major recent upheaval: the growing urbanization that shapes new mountain systems. This phenomenon gives rise to the following questions: What are the links between rural and urban changes in such contexts? What are their impacts on livelihoods and development? This book, covering social and environmental issues relating to rural-urban exchanges and transformations, is the first of its kind for African mountains. 606 $aUrbanization$zAfrica, East 606 $aRural development$zAfrica, East 606 $aRural-urban relations$zAfrica, East 607 $aAfrica, East$xRural conditions 610 $aurbanization 610 $acities 610 $aurban dynamics 610 $aland use 615 0$aUrbanization 615 0$aRural development 615 0$aRural-urban relations 676 $a307.7609676 700 $aBaron$b Catherine$01289545 701 $aBart$b François$0307007 701 $aBonnassieux$b Alain$0659234 701 $aCharlery de la Masselière$b Bernard$01284544 701 $aEdaku$b Charles$01313884 701 $aEdouard$b Jean-Charles$01313885 701 $aGreenwood$b Greg$01313886 701 $aGuillermou$b Yves$0274464 701 $aKihonge$b Ephantus$01313887 701 $aMainet$b Guy$01313888 701 $aMainet$b Hélène$01313889 701 $aMbataru$b Patrick$01313890 701 $aMbonile$b Milline Jethro$01313891 701 $aMukwaya$b Paul$01313892 701 $aMurithi$b Joseph Kariuki$01313893 701 $aNakileza$b Bob R$01313883 701 $aNantumbwe$b Clare M$01313894 701 $aRacaud$b Sylvain$01296568 701 $aTenywa$b Moses M$01313895 701 $aRacaud$b Sylvain$01296568 701 $aNakileza$b Bob R$01313883 701 $aBart$b François$0307007 701 $aCharlery de la Masselière$b Bernard$01249536 712 02$aInstitut franc?ais de recherche en Afrique. 801 0$bFR-FrMaCLE 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910495990503321 996 $aRural-Urban Dynamics in the East African Mountains$93031488 997 $aUNINA
