Langbinsi
Time lines
• Gender, status and age-dependent
• Broad range of sectors
• Focus on droughts, diseases, certain crop introductions, changes in chieftencies
![Page 13: Tracking Local Development ERG Meeting 12 Februari 2009](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bfbf1a28abf838ca315f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Langbinsi
![Page 14: Tracking Local Development ERG Meeting 12 Februari 2009](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bfbf1a28abf838ca315f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Langbinsi
Trends
• Generally positive about interventions, but with view of subsequent disadvantages
• Natural capital– Land: new farming methods and tillage, but
fertility becomes a problem– Water: new clean sources and treatmants, but
siltation and conflicts over use, drying– Crops: new crops with many advantages, but
old crops disappear
![Page 15: Tracking Local Development ERG Meeting 12 Februari 2009](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bfbf1a28abf838ca315f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Langbinsi
Trends
• Physical capital– Roads: new roads provide access, but need
maintenance– Buildings: new materials are better but are
more expensive
![Page 16: Tracking Local Development ERG Meeting 12 Februari 2009](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bfbf1a28abf838ca315f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Langbinsi
Trends
• Social capital– Family relationships: man and wife now take
decisions together, but breakdown of extended families (care function)
– Social relationships: better understanding between tribes, religions, but more individualisation and less respect for elders
![Page 17: Tracking Local Development ERG Meeting 12 Februari 2009](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bfbf1a28abf838ca315f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Langbinsi
Trends
• Cultural capital– Religion: more Christianity and Islam, but the
rituals are disappearing– Old costly traditions disappear, but old dances
and music is disappearing– Rented musical installations avoid people
noticing the low number of visitors to a funeral– Clothing: cheaper, more choice, but indecent
or ‘foreign’
![Page 18: Tracking Local Development ERG Meeting 12 Februari 2009](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bfbf1a28abf838ca315f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Langbinsi
Wealth (but: rich, wealth, influence)
• Very rich– Women traders, tractors, three meals, good
clothing, go to hospital, zinc roof, three days funeral
• Average– Most people, farmers, share bullock, basic
food, new clothing for festivals, mixed illness treatment, start to see sheet roofs, one day funeral
![Page 19: Tracking Local Development ERG Meeting 12 Februari 2009](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bfbf1a28abf838ca315f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Langbinsi
Wealth (but: rich, wealth, influence)
• Very poor– Old women, widows, ill, handicaped, lazy,
impotent (no children), crazy. No land or little, hoes, beg food, no smoke from cooking, dirty clothes, herbal medicine, no house to sleep in, no music during funeral.
