ABSTRACT

While previous studies have focused on how political and economic factors fuel herder-farmer conflicts, there is a dearth of knowledge on how desertification-induced migration amidst ungoverned spaces affect herder-farmer conflicts in Nigeria. Using data from qualitative dominant mixed method, this study interrogates how desertification-induced migration and state failure to provide security governance affect herder-farmer conflicts in Nigeria. It argued that poor security governance escalates the southward migration of herders and contributes to the intensification of herder-farmer conflicts in Nigeria. These conflicts endanger livelihoods, fuel population displacements, and undermine human security. The study concludes that effective security governance amidst increased desertification in Northern Nigeria presents an opportunity for regulating southward migration of herders, mitigating herder-farmer conflicts, and promoting human security in Nigeria.

尼日利亚的荒漠化、移民和牧民冲突:重新思考不受监管的空间论文

摘要

虽然之前的研究侧重于政治和经济因素如何助长牧民冲突,但缺乏关于荒漠化导致在无人管理的空间中迁移如何影响尼日利亚牧民冲突的知识。本研究使用来自定性主导混合方法的数据,探讨荒漠化引起的移民和国家未能提供安全治理如何影响尼日利亚的牧民冲突。它认为,安全治理不善加剧了牧民的南迁,并加剧了尼日利亚的牧民冲突。这些冲突危及生计,加剧人口流离失所,并破坏人类安全。
