This book was released on 2011-07 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Sociology - Culture, Technology, Peoples / Nations, grade: none, University of Alexandria (College of agriculture), course: Rural sociology, language: English, abstract: The findings of a sample study of 257 villages in Egypt illustrate the salience of social and cultural variables in shaping community level of development. Existence and efficiency of organizations in Egypt ranked at the top of predictors with regard to direct causal effect on village development level. These organizations include the local governance unit, the social unit including a government directed community development association, village bank, schools, mosques and churches, agricultural cooperative, veterinary unit, youth and women associations (also governmentally directed), health units or village hospital, police unit (security organization), ... etc. A very small indirect effect is also played by these organizations through their being a small part of a complex, titled here, "social engineering, or social technology." Such complex includes, in addition to the above mentioned organizations, the degree of organizational coordination, proportion of population employed in village organizations and degree of organizational variety.

This book was released on 2001-04-01 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume based on recent fieldwork by distinguished specialists includes information on the changing economic situation in the countryside, particularly after the 'owners and tenants' law of 1992. Along with the effects of structural adjustment on agriculture, marketing, and rural life, several chapters address the declining trend of rural Egyptians to emigrate. Other chapters examine changes in consumption patterns and health, various rural social processes and the 'new lands' being reclaimed in Egypt's desert areas, representations of the rural population in the media and in statistics, and their own changing self-image. What emerges is a picture of a rural Egypt that is full of life, dramatically evolving, and treading a delicate line between progress and impoverishment. Although nothing is typical of rural Egypt, these papers provide a revealing account of the struggles and rewards that characterize the Egyptian countryside today.

This book was released on 1986 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two cases of income-generating strategies in rural Egypt are examined in the context of issues in development, particularly those related to women's status and power. The cases document the development of income-generating strategies, through local initiation in the first case and with outside encouragement in the second. These strategies differed in type of commitment, capital requirements, responsibility, and training requirements. It is argued that, over the long term, having funds enables women to participate in decision making in a capitalist economy.
Download or read book Agrarian Transformation in Egypt written by Nicholas S. Hopkins and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nicholas Hopkins, a professor at the American University of Cairo, studied the Upper Egyptian village of Musha in the early 1980s, mainly to document the effects of rapid mechanization on the agricultural labor process. He also succeeds in creating a vivid picture of an Egyptian village. His descriptions of Musha society and politics; of how Musha's land is owned, recombined into vi- able farm enterprises, and cropped; and of the practical reality of the state trying to impose its agricultural policies at the village level make the book good general reading on modern Egyptian rural life. The author com- bines his observations and interview findings with data from local civil records and two surveys to fashion a final product that reads better than either the customary anthropological treatise or a numbing presentation of household-survey results. The book makes clear that in Egypt, agricultural change is occurring in a rural milieu dominated by inequality. In Musha, 15 percent of the landholders officially farm 51 percent of the land. The unofficial concentration is probably even greater. Technical change has induced new kinds of relations between larger and smaller farmers. When the larger farmers own the tractors and irrigation pumps, the result is new ways for them to benefit from their poorer neighbors. -- Trom JSTOR at http://www.jstor.org (May 23, 2013).
