More than half of Tanzania's elephants have been killed for their ivory since 2007. A similarly alarming story can be told of the herds in northern Mozambique and across swathes of central Africa. But why the new upsurge? The popular narrative blames a meeting of two evils -- criminal poaching and terrorism. But the answer is not that simple. Since ancient times, large-scale killing of elephants for their tusks has been driven by demand beyond Africa's range states from the Egyptian pharaohs through the industrialising West to the new wealthy business class of China. Elephant hunting in Africa is also governed by human-elephant conflict, traditional hunting practices and the impact of colonial exploitation and criminalisation. Ivory follows this complex history of the tusk trade in Africa, and explains why it is corruption, crime and politics, rather than insurgency, that we should worry about. In this ground-breaking work, Somerville argues that regulation -- not prohibition -- of the ivory trade is the best way to stop uncontrolled poaching." -- Publisher's description 000776067 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000776067 63000 $$aConvention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora$$d(1973 March 3) 000776067 650_0 $$aIvory industry$$xCorrupt practices$$zAfrica. 000776067 650_0 $$aAfrican elephant$$xEffect of poaching on. 000776067 650_0 $$aAfrican elephant$$xEffect of hunting on. 000776067 650_0 $$aAfrican elephant$$xConservation. 000776067 650_0 $$aPoaching$$xPolitical aspects$$zAfrica. 000776067 650_0 $$aIvory industry$$xCorrupt practices. 000776067 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aSomerville, Keith.$$tIvory.$$dLondon : Hurst & Company, 2016$$z9781849046763$$s(DLC) 2016498794$$w(OCoLC)950450616 000776067 852__ $$bacq 000776067 85280 $$bebk$$hEBSCOhost 000776067 85640 $$3eBooks on EBSCOhost$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=1469934$$zOnline Access 000776067 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:776067$$pGLOBAL_SET 000776067 980__ $$aEBOOK 000776067 980__ $$aBIB 000776067 982__ $$aEbook 000776067 983__ $$aOnline 000776067 994__ $$a92$$bISE
