Book African Food Systems in Crisis

Download or read book African Food Systems in Crisis written by Rebecca Huss-Ashmore and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-19 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1991. Commissioned by the Task Force on African Famine of the American Anthropological Association, this the second part of a project examining the causes of food system failure in Africa and the effects of attempts to remedy the situation. It evaluates the often-retrogressive results of foreign aid to African nations and offers an anthropological perspective on how to reverse this trend. The contributors emphasize integrating all development programs with the regional customs and traditions already in place that have thus far allowed its people to cope with food and water shortages. In the past, various strategies have failed due to misunderstandings and incorrect assumptions concerning gender roles, food consumption habits, social relations, kinship networks, land use and government function. New understanding of the culture must be complemented with multifaceted programs incorporating education, a concern for grass-roots opinion and control, attention to production and consumption patterns, and various forms of broad-spectrum integrated development. The uniqueness research is recommended for all who are concerned about worldwide malnutrition and those who understand the need to recognize local traditions as resources that must be included in any successful development program.

Book State Against Development

Download or read book State Against Development written by Mondonga Mokoli and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1992 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study evaluates the state-initiated policies in post-1965 Zaire and their impact on the people. Although the state has accorded priority to the socioeconomic development of the agricultural and rural sector, that objective, the author claims, has been political, not socioeconomic. Over time conventional indicators show that the sector has not received sufficient financial support and has lacked the political will to obtain the assigned goals. The study also examines the nature of the state in Zaire and calls for the mastery of the state as the sine qua non without which Zaire will remain in its present state of underdevelopment.
