Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These days, development inspires scant trust in the West. For critics who condemn centralized efforts to plan African societies as latter day imperialism, such plans too closely reflect their roots in colonial rule and neoliberal economics. But proponents of this pessimistic view often ignore how significant this concept has become for Africans themselves. In Bewitching Development, James Howard Smith presents a close ethnographic account of how people in the Taita Hills of Kenya have appropriated and made sense of development thought and practice, focusing on the complex ways that development connects with changing understandings of witchcraft. Similar to magic, development’s promise of a better world elicits both hope and suspicion from Wataita. Smith shows that the unforeseen changes wrought by development—greater wealth for some, dashed hopes for many more—foster moral debates that Taita people express in occult terms. By carefully chronicling the beliefs and actions of this diverse community—from frustrated youths to nostalgic seniors, duplicitous preachers to thought-provoking witch doctors—BewitchingDevelopment vividly depicts the social life of formerly foreign ideas and practices in postcolonial Africa.

Download or read book Community based Ecotourism as a Sustainable Development Option written by Nina Himberg and published by VDM Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the development of community ecotourism in south-eastern Kenya. The indigenous mountain rain forests of the Taita Hills are rich in biodiversity, but severely degraded. Alternative livelihoods are needed among the Taita people and community ecotourism offers one potential source of income while reviving the fading cultural traditions and indigenous knowledge about forest use. This case study combines anthropocentric and bio centric premises to examine existing and potential resources and their hindrances. The arguments are couched around factors that are essential to the viability of the local ecosystems and communities. The nexus of these factors are then discussed within the context of the external political, social and economic forces impacting upon the sustainable development of the area. Using an ecotourism potentiality analysis, the case study focuses upon three forest areas and one village. The book will be especially useful to professionals in nature conservation and tourism fields as well as for development agencies, NGOs, academic institutions and local and regional site developers.
