Through extensive ethnographic research in Alasha, Thomas White examines the impact of state environmental policies on ethnic Mongol pastoralists and their livestock. The book highlights how grazing bans, enclosure, and resettlement initiatives have reshaped their lives in this arid region of Inner Mongolia. By analyzing the intersection of human and animal experiences under state greening efforts, it offers valuable insights into political anthropology, animal studies, political ecology, and more-than-human geography.
