Oba (ecology, Norwegian U. of Life Sciences) draws not only on academic studies, but also on the experience of his own grandparents and parents, who lived through the partitioning of the frontiers region between the Empire of Ethiopia and the British East African Protectorate of Kenya. The colonial era has implications for how control was exercised over formerly free populations, he says, and the history of frontiers in the Horn of Africa and elsewhere needs to shift focus from contests between imperial states to resistance by the frontier nomads.
