6 Governance and Sovereignty "[T]ransformation (and globalization) has led to a reinvention of government and what it does" - Anonymous

7 Historical Patterns of Governance Paternalism- Monarchy, Theocracy and Authoritarianism Authority Linked to the Control of Land (and Water)- Feudalism

8 Three Sub-Themes Governance:  Land and Water Use  Rural Change  Human Skills Development

9 The Evolution of the Rural Community 1. Hunter-gatherers: Age-grade societies 2. Settled Subsistence Agriculturalists

10 The Evolution of the Rural Community-2 3. Cattle Keeping 4. Plantations, Commercial Farms and Agri-Business 5. So-Called Communal Tenure

11 Traditional: Communal The term is misleading- there are an infinite number of land relationships- Note Three 1. Use same land for individual benefit (cattle rearing)

12 Communal Land 2. People use same land and pool proceeds- aspiration in socialist countries. (Communalism): Little evidence in traditional society COLLECTIVE FARMS AND FARM FACTORIES

13 Communal Land 3. Individual use of land for individual gain a. without legal tenure b. no sale or disposal of land c. no collateral

14 The Problem of Landlordism Tenancy relationship to large hacienda, plantation or commercial agricultural enterprise In much of the world, Land is traditional controlled by land-lords Vast majority of rural peasants in some form of tenancy relationships

15 Landlordism Serfdom: legal linkage to land and ownership Small scale subsistence agriculturalist- produce for food Reality: Peasants- dependency relationship to land

16 Rural Socialism as an ideology in the 1960s 1. Peasant collectives and Communal state farms- Soviet Union 2. Voluntary collectives- Ujamaa villages in Tanzania 3. Move the peasant away from individualized production (China) 4. Ideal: village level economies of scale 5. Reality: Collectives, prefectoralism and state enterprises (State Agri-Collectives

17 Modernization- Western (and to some Colonial) Land Divisions a. Usufruct: Individual ownership and control of land with rights of transfer, inheritance and sale b. Landed elites- landed aristocracy c. MNCs as plantation farmers- Firestone, Dole and Unilever

18 Individual Land Tenure: Results Landless Rural Workers- Sell their labor in cities, to plantations, to small farmers or as a labor export (regionally or internationally) The realities and limits of collective finance: From Burial Societies to micro- credit schemes How to define individual relationship to land: FAILURE OF LAND TENURE REFORM

19 Rural Development and civil society Induced Rural Transformation- Approaches 1. Radical Transformation- urbanization a. Primacy of Industrialization b. Emphasis on infrastructure and mechanization of farming

20 Rural Development 2. Green Revolution: Variant of above. Capital intensive and export oriented. (Landlordism?) a. Focus is primarily on Technical (seeds, equipment- focus is on extension and technical) b. Economies of scale mean large farms

21 Rural Development 3. Small holder approach- Primacy is on rural sector INTEGRATED RURAL DEVELOPMENT

22 Rural Development and Governance 1. Primacy of social development, health, education, community development 2. Small holder peasant sector 3. Stresses the importance of individual land tenure and producer cooperatives in marketing 4. Links with local government structures: Village Development Committees 5. Role for Civil Society Groups

23 Problem: The Capitalist/Commercial Farming- Lack of an Alternative and Failure of Collective Agriculture Failure of and agricultural transformation except for parts of Southeast Asia (plus war and weather) Lead to the decline of the state and the intervention of NGOs - Relief and Humanitarian activities
