Identifying stakeholders and discussing a strategy for the participatory management of a protected area

Eclectic political economies of a world disordered
Theory, change and the search for epistemological courage in shaping a new world order
No matter how narrowly you focus your spatial or temporal lenses, you are bound to catch sight of multiple significant challenges to human community. Many of these challenges are shared, such as Covid-19, though their impacts on individuals and groups are felt unevenly. Some challenges are immediate and existential, such as the wars in Ukraine, Syria, and Yemen. Others, such as race, gender, caste, and class-based inequalities, are deeply embedde…
The ‘boomerang effect’
States have been negotiating climate mitigation actions centred around greenhouse gas emissions for several decades. In the wake of the Paris Agreement, a significant body of research has emerged reflecting on the unintended negative consequences of climate mitigation action. More recently, this research includes a focus on climate adaptation actions. The negative impacts have, together, been labelled ‘maladaptation’. Maladaptation as articulated…

Masculinity and the Fear of Emasculation in International Relations Theory
This chapter examines the classical debate between conservatism and liberalism from a gendered perspective. Traditionally, gender has been seen as a physical, unchanging attribute. Physical properties unique to a particular sex were meant to produce different gender properties. Fractures within masculinity have played a crucial part in defining the relationships between the two orthodox paradigms in international relations (IR): namely realism an…
A Better Life for All’
Prefigurative politics is a resurgent concept, seeking to explain a diverse array of social phenomena, from Occupy Wall Street to car-sharing cooperatives. The driving force behind these activities is said to be a combination of dashed hopes for a better post-Cold War world and the widespread negative social impacts of neoliberal globalization. Although located in the Global South, Southern Africa is not immune to these pressures and processes. I…
Md Saidul Islam and Md Ismail Hossain. Social Justice in the Globalization of Production
Reductionist and integrative research approaches to complex water security policy challenges
Seeing “invisible water”
Climate change and variability combined with increasing population shape a discourse of “water crisis”, with a heavy emphasis on scarcity, particularly in the Global South. The primary metric used is freshwater availability, defined as annually available surface and groundwater. We challenge the accuracy of this metric and introduce the concepts of green water and virtual water. Applied to the case of cotton production in Uzbekistan, we show that…
Natural Resources and Social Conflict

Integrated Development Planning in South Africa
A Political Ecology of Development in the Boteti River Region of Botswana
Using a political ecology framework, this article describes the main developmental challenges facing communities living within the Boteti River sub-basin of northwestern Botswana. The data derive primarily from household surveys conducted over several months in 2008. They show that residents within the study area face significant challenges from unstable supplies of potable water and a highly degraded physical landscape. The article suggests that…
Transboundary Water Governance in Southern Africa
Water Resource Management in Botswana
From “Project” to “Context”
Community based natural resource management (CBNRM) programs presently proliferate across the Global South. In Southern Africa, CBNRM overwhelmingly focuses on wildlife conservation in areas adjacent to national parks and game reserves. The objects of these development activities are remote communities that exhibit the highest levels of poverty in the region, the consequences of which are sometimes resource degradation. CBNRM seeks to empower and…
From Rio to Johannesburg and beyond
A year after the Johannesburg-hosted World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD), by and large we continue to await the birth of a sustainable new world order. In the wake of the US war on terror, one may be forgiven for having lost track of the doings at Johannesburg. This article revisits Johannesburg in the hope that it may inspire critical thinking about issues of the environment, development and the ro ̆le of the Commonwealth therein. It …
Rio Minus Ten
The new water architecture in southern Africa
UN Secretary–General Kofi Annan has identified water and sanitation as a principle area of focus for the forthcoming World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD). It is fitting that this meeting is being held in Johannesburg, as water resources management issues are of primary importance to the southern African region. There is a new water architecture being developed in the region, one that hopes to correct abiding structural inequalities of a…
Theory, Change and Southern Africa
As dramatic changes unfold throughout the world, and the new millennium begins, many in South Africa have begun to ask 'what next'? The scale and pace of change have led to a feeling of powerlessness.
Why Democracy is Not Enough
The shining water that moves in the streams and rivers is not just water, but the blood of our ancestors. Each ghostly reflection in the clear waters of the lakes tells of events and memories in the life of my people. The water's murmur is the voice of my father's father. The rivers are our brothers. They quench our thirst. They carry our canoes and feed our children. So you must give to the rivers the kindness you would give any brother. . . . M…
