Land Utilization System in Burkina Faso: A Case Study in Ziniaré
Get PDFapplication/pdfIn Burkina Faso, the rights to land utilization and distribution have been generally defined by the traditional “first occupant” rule. New comers have been given rights to land utilization from the first occupant. But this rule is now changing because of many factors which are recently emerging such as administrative, legal and economic system changes, land nationalization, population growth, desertification and diminishing pasture land, urbanization, modernization, globalization, social structural changes, mentality changes, commercialization, and so on. Many small farmers are obliged to cope with this new situation. This study is composed of three parts: first we briefly overview traditional rules in Burkina Faso regarding land utilization; then recent situations are described in two ways: legal changes, and observations and perceptions expressed by our interviewees; and finally we present one of our case studies conducted in a Mossi village in the province of Plateau Central as an example of changes occurred in production and consumption systems at a large household: a way how a polygamy family shifted from a “collective” to an “individual” system?articl
調査風景
Get PDFapplication/pdf街や野や畑や水辺を歩き回り、人びとと話をし、土や植物に触れ、建物や農具に触り、雨に濡れ風に吹かれ、ごはんを食べたりくつろいだりすることが私たちの調査活動の基本です。とてもまじめな顔をして、いろいろなものを測り聞き取り、記録し、少しだけ小難しい話をすることもありますが、その前に一個の人間としてその土地の人びとや風土になじむことを大切にしています。※人物が写りこんでいる写真は、転載不可。boo
