dc.description.abstract | This thesis is an attempt to procure knowledge on how to avoid and resolve the increasing land use related conflicts and killing in rural Tanzania through locally initiated land use planning. It documents details of villagers’ planning practices and negotiations. Underlying it is an assumption that will emulate. To produce such knowledge an in-depth analysis of a single case of planning practice and negotiation by villagers was conducted and knowledge an in-depth analysis of a single case of planning practice and negotiations by villagers was conducted and reported through narratives. The case revealed that conflicts could be addressed if interest groups competing over a piece of land that they hold customarily, but one that they use for different activities collaborate in a sincere way. At the centre of it, the different groups should accept that other people have knowledge and forms of mobilizing collective action, all of which, when employed under sincere collaration, can be useful for collective effort to resolve be conflicts. All attributes need to complement and supplement one another in such a way that planning is a gain-gain game. However, against this possibility there are threats especially where groups and individuals seek to gain more than others so that they marginalize those others by going for different tactics and tricks decided behind the scene and rationalized in formal meetings. Another is where Government officials using the Government and Party policies and reports by experts and the police as cover may form alliances with one group to marginalize another, also for personal gains. Also members of one group may provide false information against others to foster their gains and that this false information cannot be refuted by members of one or other group. | en_US |
