They describe the significant challenges caused by the retreat of the state from the rural economy, and its consequences not only for rural herders, but for the country as a whole. Their topics are what makes a climate disaster; herders and the state; rural livelihoods in the post-transition period; sociality, governance, and vulnerability; "Minegolia," and health and well-being.
