Locating community participation in a water supply project-the Galanefhi Water Project (Eritrea)
Water projects, like sustainable development projects in general, often tend to become unsustainable because they are guided by top-down strategies which exclude the input, influence and ownership of projects by their beneficiaries.

N Antwoord op: Etnisiteit en sogenaamde “Kleurlingskap” in perspektief
This article is a rejoinder to criticism of our analytical perspective on ethnicity and ethnic group formation in South Africa. We reply (i) to the claim that the typology of ethnic concepts of McKay and Lewins (1978) relies entirely on the subjective dimension of ethnic identification, and ignores the role objective factors play in ethnic group formation; and (ii) comment on the relationship between minority groups and ethnic groups, with specif…
