Communities as institutions for resource management

Abstract

A CASS Occasional Paper/ Conference Paper on rural environmental management by involving the participation of the community in the management of their shared environs. This paper was initially presented to the National Conference on Environment and Development, Maputo, Mocambique, 7-11 October, 1991.This paper deals with a complex set of issues, but seeks to do so in a relatively clear and non-technical manner. It proceeds therefore by a series of highly condensed propositions and arguments, using a Zimbabwean case study for illustration. Some of the more technical and theoretic underpinnings of the analysis are relegated to footnotes or to the citation of relevant sources
