Meer oor hierdie e-boek

Arid Beauty Sells explores the evolving trade of Himba crafts in Namibia, examining the intersection of tradition, globalization, and economic development. This book delves into how Himba women, traditionally known for their pastoral lifestyle, are increasingly selling crafts in urban centers. One intriguing aspect is the delicate balance between providing economic opportunities and the potential for cultural commodification. The book highlights the social impact of this trade on Himba communities, including shifts in gender roles and intergenerational relationships. The approach uses qualitative and quantitative data, including interviews and ethnographic observations, to provide a comprehensive analysis. It addresses critical issues such as cultural preservation, fair trade, and the challenges faced by indigenous communities in the global marketplace. The structure progresses from introducing the Himba people and their traditions, to analyzing the economics of the craft trade, its social effects, and cultural implications, ultimately offering recommendations for sustainable tourism models. By understanding these dynamics, Arid Beauty Sells offers valuable insights into the complexities of cultural tourism and its impact on marginalized communities.
