在东非，争夺非洲时期的移民殖民和军事化的保护制度成为该地区殖民统治的共同特征，其特点是通过围栏和武装护林员巡逻保护土地，从根本上改变了当地人与土地和自然环境的关系。在影响当地人与自然关系的同时，直接的殖民统治也影响了当地人对休闲的表达。殖民当局经常在通常分配为自由时间的时间内强迫进行某些活动，有时强迫个人执行任务或从事与当地休闲观念相悖的活动。本文将两个离散但相关的学术文献联系起来，重点关注非洲的情况：特定时期和殖民类型对当地人民的持久影响：(a)休闲观念，以及(b)与自然环境的关系。东非是主要的区域重点，以遏制范围。滚雪球式文献检索和数据库关键词检索用于文献综述，其中优先考虑非洲撰写的奖学金，以解决学术研究中的欧洲-北美偏见。文献中的证据描述了在移民-殖民时期休闲和对自然的看法是如何受到限制和重新定义的，它们在后殖民时代的演变说明了休闲和对自然的看法是如何在当今形成的。然而，本文只关注特定时期和殖民类型的持久影响，因此持久影响可能比本分析中描述的更深刻。接下来，本文利用这些文献的交叉点来研究东非的一个当代问题：最近通过鼓励当地人参与基于自然的娱乐活动和休闲体验来增加国内生态旅游的努力。本文通过交叉殖民、休闲社会学和旅游文献，为非洲生态旅游文献做出贡献，以确定东非国内生态旅游的当代历史机遇和挑战，突出休闲社会学和生态旅游文献中与未来非洲游客对生态旅游活动的看法有关的差距。
In East Africa, settler-colonization during the Scramble for Africa period and the militarized conservation regimes that became a common feature of colonial governance in the region, characterized by conserved land secured via fences and patrols of armed rangers, fundamentally altered locals’ access to and relationship with their land and natural environment. In parallel to the impacts on locals’ relationship with nature, direct colonial governance impacted local expressions of leisure. Colonial authorities often enforced particular activities during times normally allocated as free time, forcing individuals sometimes to perform tasks or engage in activities contrary to local conceptions of leisure. This paper draws linkages between two discrete but related scholarly literatures focusing on African contexts: the lasting influences of a particular period and type of colonization on local peoples’: (a) conceptions of leisure, and (b) relationships to their natural environment. East Africa is the primary regional focus, to contain the scope. Snowballing literature search and database keyword searches are used for literature review, in which African-authored scholarship is prioritized to address Euro-North American bias in academic research. Evidence in the literature describes how leisure and perceptions of nature were constrained and redefined during the settler-colonial period and their evolution in the postcolonial era inform how leisure and perceptions of nature are shaped in the present. However, the paper focuses only lasting impacts of a particular period and type of colonization, and thus the lasting impacts are likely to be deeper than those described in this analysis. Next, the paper draws on intersections of these literatures to examine a contemporary issue in East Africa: recent efforts to increase domestic ecotourism by encouraging locals to engage in nature-based recreation activities and leisure experiences. The paper contributes to the African ecotourism literature by intersecting colonization, sociology of leisure, and tourism literatures to identify contemporary historically-rooted opportunities and challenges in domestic ecotourism in East Africa, highlighting gaps in sociology of leisure and ecotourism literatures pertaining to prospective African tourists’ perceptions of ecotourism activities.
