A Review on Plant and Vegetation Sciences -- 4. Geomorphic Features of the Eastern Pamirs, with a Focus on the Occurrence of Intermontane Basins -- 5. Water of the Pamir - Potential and Constraints -- 6. Khans, Kings, Communists, Warlords, and Presidents: Afghan Kirghiz Socio-economic Strategies for Extorting and Extracting from the State -- 7.

Diversity of Seasonal Migration of Livestock in the Eastern Alai Valley, Southern Kyrgyzstan -- 10. Kezuu and Novad: A Form of Pastoralism in the Eastern Alai Valley, Southern Kyrgyzstan -- 11. External Support and Local Agency: Uncertain Transformations of Livelihoods in the Pamirian Borderland of Tajikistan -- 12.

History of the Development of the Pamir Region of Tajikistan (Gorno-Badakhshan) -- 17. Conclusions: Why do we need to make Efforts to Map the Transition?

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.
