近年来,研究撒哈拉以南非洲地区领土控制和行政行为实践的学者们注意到将其支持者明确地定位在国家领域内外的分析问题(Lund 2001; Englebert 2002; Nugent 2002; Chabal和Daloz 1999; Bayart et al. 1999)。本章分析了国家实践与非国家实践相交的情况,即国家(和捐助者)赞助的治安职能外包给酋长和治安维持者,酋长充当国家权威的下级代表。我的出发点是纳米比亚内政部长杰里·埃坎乔于2002年8月在纳米比亚东北部卡普里维地区的布卡洛镇进行的一项行政改革。布卡洛是苏比亚人酋长和他的库塔(Silozi,酋长和顾问会议)的住所
Scholars examining practices of territorial control and administrative action in sub-Saharan Africa have in recent years drawn attention to the analytical problems of locating their proponents unambiguously within or outside the realm of the state (Lund 2001; Englebert 2002; Nugent 2002; Chabal and Daloz 1999; Bayart et al. 1999). This chapter analyzes situations in which state practices intersect with non-state practices in the sense of the state- (and donor-) sponsored outsourcing of policing functions to chiefs and vigilantes, where chiefs act as lower-tier representatives of state authority. My point of departure is an administrative reform introduced by the Namibian Minister of Home Affairs, Jerry Ekandjo, in August 2002, which took place in the town Bukalo in Namibia’s northeastern Caprivi Region. Bukalo is the residence of the chief of the Subiya people and his khuta (Silozi, council of chiefs and advisors).1
