This article aims to highlight the impact on local development of traditional economic activities. The lack of current data and information regarding the shepherding activities pertaining to the entire studied area was the main limitation of our study, the latest data being provided by the websites of the town halls of some communities being representative of the shepherding activities in Mărginimea Sibiului and by the field research performed by the authors. This article complements, develops and updates similar studies for this region by Irimie et al. Given the context, this study highlights the viability of this traditional activity in the current economic and social context, marked in 1990-2000 by the decline of industry as a result of the transition from the centralized economic system to the market economy, and later by the impact of the global economic and financial recession (2008)(2009)(2010)(2011)(2012), by the pandemic crisis (2019-2022) and by the geopolitical tensions generated by the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
