随着和平在乌干达北方的恢复，在以前的国内流离失所者营地，一种独特的发展算法是显而易见的。小型贸易中心的人口在成为营地时成倍增加，现在设想未来将成为城镇委员会。减少是必要的：流离失所者和埋葬在难民营中的死者正在返回他们的农村。城市规划者绘制了细致的图纸，设想将土地划分为开发用地。捐助者正在以新的市场建筑和供水的形式进行扩建。然而，随着时间的推移，这种算法必须考虑新的问题。这篇文章主要是基于在Awach的实地调查，Awach是一个前国内流离失所者营地，现在被定为镇委员会。在分析与土地所有者、营地关闭后留下来的“定居者”、当地领导人和官员的访谈材料时，我们强调了这条特殊发展道路上的矛盾、紧张和冲突。
ABSTRACT As peace returns to northern Uganda, a unique arithmetic of development is evident in the former Internally Displaced Persons camps. Small trading centres whose populations multiplied as they became camps now envision futures as Town Boards. Subtraction is necessary: the displaced people and the dead buried in the camps are being returned to their rural villages. Urban planners have produced meticulous drawings that envisage the division of land into plots for development. Donors are making additions in the form of new market buildings and water supplies. Yet this arithmetic must reckon with new problems as time passes. The article is based primarily on fieldwork in Awach, a former IDP camp now slated for status as a Town Board. In analysing material from interviews with landowners, ‘remainders’ who stayed behind after the camp closed, local leaders and officials, we emphasise the paradoxes, tensions and conflicts of this special path to development.
