This volume collects the findings of current empirical and theoretical research and presents the voices and experiences of the indigenous peoples of Southern Africa on aspects of their development and livelihoods. The main intention of this volume, namely to give recognition to the significance of African values and ethics in order to promote sustainability, is highlighted from different perspectives. And although it focuses on a specific region, the basic assumptions and principles are, I believe, of value for, and applicable to, other parts of the so-called Third World.
