Toward an Optimum Yield
In the late colonial period, fisheries science and colonial development programs converged in blueprints to better exploit marine resources throughout the British empire. Yet, the historiography of science and colonial development has focused predominantly on the management and exploitation of terrestrial resources with only limited investigation of parallel schemes focused on marine and freshwater resources. Centering on the final decades of the…
Fishing (in) the past to inform the future
Without historical interrogation of past and present fisheries management, governors and their sponsors often fall into the trap of replicating and reproducing failed approaches. Even when aimed at community empowerment, a lack of historical awareness can lead to underappreciation of the institutional, economic, and socio-ecological contexts that resource users navigate. In this article, we explore the history of fisheries management in Lake Mala…
Colonialism, Governance, and Fisheries
This piece explores the parallel development of two fisheries management regimes in mid-twentieth-century Lake Malawi: one imposed by the British colonial government over the lake and the other by Senior Chief Makanjira focused on Mbenji Island. The parallel development of these regimes provides opportunity for close analysis of how fisheries management centred on different knowledge and practices led to distinctive legacies of governance legitim…
Historical Origins of the State’s Exploitative System of Peasant Farmers in Malawi from 1926 to 2000
This paper traces the historical origins of the state’s exploitative agricultural market system in Malawi with a case of Agricultural Development and Marketing Corporation ( admarc ), a post-colonial agriculture marketing board established in 1971. The study analyses how its initial intention of facilitating the transformation of agriculture got thwarted by political interest and structural adjustment and recently globalization processes. The stu…

This implies that any institutional reform implemented on land, agricultural production and marketing of agricultural enterprises directly affects the farming communities. The interest of the article covers institutional reforms from the years 1964 to 1979. The article briefly analyses the colonial era policies an…

Coping with the Double Crisis
The Interface of Christianity and Conservation in Colonial Malawi, C. 1850-1930
The study of the relationship between religion and the environment in Malawi has only recently begun to be appreciated. Christian missionaries in general did not actively promote the campaign for conservation of resources but some early missionaries frequently evoked biblical images and ideas that had a strong bearing on the perception and management of the environment. Later, certain religious groups were vocal in their support for or opposition…
Soil Erosion and State Intervention into Estate Production in the Shire Highlands Economy of Colonial Malawi, 1891-1964
This paper examines the history of soil erosion on private estates in the Shire Highlands region of Malawi and the limits of the colonial state's coercive capacity to intervene. It shows that the problem of soil erosion on the Shire Highlands estates was serious and widespread. In contrast to the intense, harsh conservation campaigns imposed on African Trust Land, the colonial state virtually ignored the environmental degradation taking place on …
