The Impact of Forced Relocation on Manatali Social Organization

本项目将研究非自愿重新安置对马里西部马纳塔利地区农业生产的影响，1986-87年该地区约有10 000人被重新安置。5-10年后的今天，人们已经度过了适应搬迁的早期过渡阶段，可以将新的资源用于社会和经济的发展。研究人员假设，非自愿迁移过程与社会经济分层制度的相互作用将影响社会分工、农业生产的主要战略，从而影响生产水平。该项目将采用密集访谈和参与性观察的方法，对大约120户家庭进行抽样调查，以确定生产活动的模式、获得生产资源的途径、家庭劳动分工和生产水平。它将由一个由四名社会科学家组成的小组进行，由美国首席研究员和马里人文科学研究所（ISH）的社会科学家组成。该团队在20世纪80年代末对这一领域进行了初步研究，通过再次合作进行这项重新研究，该团队将提供一种收集随时间变化的信息的最佳方法。在理论层面上，该项目将加深我们对农村分层制度如何在一个主要土地资源的获取仍然植根于社会和政治控制的领土上运作的理解。在应用层面，对农村分层制度及其对农业生产的影响有了更深入的了解，将使规划人员能够设计出更公平的方案，使人们能够以更经济和环境可持续的方式进行生产。这个项目还将提高马里ISH社会科学家的科学能力。建议的研究是否会像预期的那样成功。小组成员最关心的是对方法的相对模糊的说明，以及对这些方法与将要检验的假设之间的关系缺乏明确的说明。在会议结束时，tht!!!F F(时代新罗马符号& Arial B B B " h 2 E 2 E = a柯尼格抽象高级抽象高级柯尼格雷蒙德·詹姆斯雷蒙德·詹姆斯

This project will study the effects involuntary resettlement on agricultural production in the Manatali region of western Mali where approximately 10,000 people were relocated in 1986-87. Now, 5-10 years afterwards, the people have passed through the early transition phase of adaptation to relocation and can use new resources for social an economic development. The researchers hypothesize that the interplay of the process of involuntary relocation with the system of socio-economic stratification will affect the social division of labor, the major strategies of agricultural production, and hence levels of production. The project will use intensive interview and participant observation to follow a sample of approximately 120 households to determine patterns of productive activities, access to productive resources, household division of labor, and levels of production. It will be carried out by a team of four social scientists pairing the American principal investigator with social scientists from the Institut des Sciences Humanies (ISH) in Mali. This team worked on the initial studies of this area in the late 1980s and by working together again on this re-study the team will provide an optimal way to gather information on changes over time. At a theoretical level, this project will deepen our understanding of how rural stratification systems work in a territory where access to the major resource of land remains embedded in social and political control. At an applied level, this greater understanding of rural stratification systems and their effects on agricultural production will allow planners to design more equitable programs which allow people to produce in a more economically and environmental sustainable fashion. This project will also increase the scientific capability of the ISH social scientists of Mali. *** d as to whether the proposed research would be as successful as anticipated. Of greatest concern to the panelists was the relatively vague specification of methods and the absence of clear descriptions regarding how the methods related to the hypotheses that would be tested.
