Download Inland from Mombasa Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Over the past few decades, scholars have traced how oceanic merchants forged transregional networks into an "Indian Ocean world" of global connections. East Africa's crucial role has primarily been understood through the influence of coastal trading centers like Mombasa. In this book, David Bresnahan looks anew at this Swahili port city from the vantage point of the communities that lived on its rural edges. By reconstructing the deep history of these Mijikenda-speaking societies over the past two millennia, he shows how profoundly they influenced global trade even as they rejected many of the cosmopolitan practices that historians have claimed as critical in creating global connections--choosing smaller communities over urbanism, local ritual practices over Islam, and inland trade over maritime commerce. Inland from Mombasa makes the compelling case that far from insulating the Mijikenda speakers, the alternative social pursuits they selected were key to their active role in global commerce and politics.

The good practice guidelines - which form the basis of an interactive policymaker's tool kit included on a CD accompanying the book - relate not only to the more focused problem of encouraging increased fertilizer use by farmers, but also to the broader challenge of creating the type of enabling environment that is needed to support the emergence of efficient, dynamic and commercially viable fertilizer marketing systems."--Jacket.
