项目摘要

The question of how institutions evolve and change is one of the major theoretical challenges in the cultural and social sciences. Namibia currently offers a very interesting opportunity to analyze the transformation of communal resource management in practice. While, on the one hand, the state is partly withdrawing from natural resource management, on the other hand, it is setting new guidelines as to how communities should manage their resources collectively. In the first funding phase, we developed a comprehensive research design to capture institutional change in the Kunene Region comparatively. Building on that, extensive ethnographic data were collected in four case studies. The results were analyzed in detail in monographs. In addition, we were able to test a number of hypotheses derived from our ethnographic work in a larger sample of communities (N=61). The regional upscaling technique has proven to be very useful and first comparative results were published in World Development, Human Ecology, Human Nature, Environmental Policy and Governance and the Zeitschrift für Ethnologie. In the forthcoming final phase, we will focus primarily on the diachronic perspective and systematically exploit the potential of a long-term project. This will allow us to show, which economic, social and political consequences the observed institutional dynamics have in the communities we study. In addition, we will work on the integration of the theoretical results.

制度如何发展和改变的问题是文化和社会科学中的主要理论挑战之一。纳米比亚目前提供了一个非常有趣的机会来分析实践中公共资源管理的转变。另一方面，国家部分从自然资源管理中撤出，但另一方面，它正在制定新的指导方针，以了解社区应如何共同管理其资源。在第一个融资阶段，我们开发了一种全面的研究设计，以相对捕捉库恩地区的机构变化。在此基础上，在四个案例研究中收集了广泛的人种学数据。在专着中详细分析了结果。此外，我们能够在更大的社区样本中检验从我们的人种学工作中得出的许多假设（n = 61）。事实证明，该区域升级技术非常有用，首次比较结果在世界发展，人类生态学，人性，环境政策和治理以及ZeitschriftFürEthnologie中发表。在即将到来的最后阶段中，我们将主要关注直接的观点，并系统地探索长期项目的潜力。这将使我们能够展示，这是我们所研究的社区所观察到的制度动态所带来的经济，社会和政治后果。此外，我们将研究理论结果的整合。
