About this ebook
Sand Hills Hunt explores the dynamic relationship between the San people of Southern Africa, their traditional hunting practices, and the growing influence of the wage economy. This study examines how globalization and economic change impact indigenous livelihoods, revealing the complex ways the San balance cultural identity with new economic realities. Interestingly, the book highlights how hunting, while economically significant, also plays a crucial role in maintaining social cohesion and transmitting cultural knowledge.
The book presents an in-depth look at the San's economic adaptation strategies, detailing their involvement in various forms of wage labor and the challenges they face. Rejecting the idea of simple cultural loss, it argues that the San creatively blend hunting with wage labor to create hybrid livelihoods.
Beginning with an introduction to the San's history and hunting practices, the book progresses to analyze wage labor opportunities and culminates in an examination of the strategies used to sustain their cultural identity amidst economic pressures, offering valuable insights into indigenous communities worldwide.
