This is mostly the case with the duality or dichotomy between the informal and formal sectors of African production and employment. Informal economic activity is associated with indigenous systems of production and culture and has increasingly been viewed as inferior to formal sector activity which is associated with modern systems of production and European culture. These two sectors are viewed as opposite to each other. Critical assessment of the division between formal and informal sectors in Sub-Saharan Africa indicates that such a dichotomy is misplaced. Yet, this division between sectors has been used as the basis for policy formulation. Using wood producers in Kumasi, this paper illustrates that the dichotomy between formal and informal sectors is not based on economics, negates the contribution of indigenous production to development, and stifles growth of production in Sub-Saharan...","PeriodicalId":85683,"journal":{"name":"The East African geographical review","volume":"49 1","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74596174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It discusses the shortcomings and strengths of the identified planning systems. It is argued in this paper that new planning institutions have failed to effect their agricultural development plans in part due to their failure in acknowledging the important role of traditional leaders in regulating agricultural and grazing land resources. This fact has resulted in major conflicts between traditional authority and government institutions in the rural development process. The paper concludes by noting that for the development process to succeed in Zimbabwe there is a need to integrate activities of institutions at the national level with those of institutions at the village or community.","PeriodicalId":85683,"journal":{"name":"The East African geographical review","volume":"11 1","pages":"30-46"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81308021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Liberal economic policies put in place since the late 1980s and the prevailing peace in most parts of the country have contributed to a number of changes in the Tourism Industry. The number of National Parks has shot up from four in 1986 to the current ten. In order to enable local people get interested in tourism, they are encouraged to participate in the industry by working as guides and will soon be able to get a percentage of the revenue from the industry. The Government has become very strict on poachers and encroachers. Gorilla viewing has been given priority since 1993 as it contributes half of the earnings from Tourism. As a sign of improvement in the Tourism sector of the economy, the number of tourists and the earnings have progressively increased since 1986.","PeriodicalId":85683,"journal":{"name":"The East African geographical review","volume":"1 1","pages":"58-70"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77946179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper examines the dynamics of population growth and change in Malawi's urban hierarchy during the 1966–1977 and 1977–1987 intercensal periods. An evaluation of the relative success of governmental strategies in redistributing urban population and implementing spatially balanced development across the three regions is also offered.

It will be hypothesized that artificial land scarcities have exacerbated deforestation pressures, forcing a significant majority of Malawi's population to subsist off a fraction of its land resources. This population-land distribution discrepancy has resulted in environmental degradation, challenging post-colonial Malawi's government to counter with appropriate forestry policy. Early post-colonial policies were “top-down” projects, however, after decades of unsuccessful results a transition has occurred in which “bottom-up” programs are advocated.","PeriodicalId":85683,"journal":{"name":"The East African geographical review","volume":"15 1","pages":"23-38"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73349680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The benefits of ecotourism to local communities has been widely debated and fears have been expressed about the exclusion of local people from the management and the sharing of revenue from ecotourism. A study was carried out in 1994 and 1995 to assess the local perception of ecotourism in Kibale National Park, the extent to which the local communities have benefited and whether they would be willing to participate in the management of ecotourism in the park. It was found that local people are aware, have positive attitudes and have interacted with Kibale tourists, but have not benefited much from ecotourism.

Current research shows that better spatial organization of existing health facilities through application of location-allocation methods is an effective and less expensive means to improve geographical accessibility to health and other services. While many studies demonstrate the utility of these methods in the African context, the application of location-allocation methods in African health planning is rare.

However, many of these cities have fundamental obstacles that need to be overcome if they are to be more productive. One of the most visible problem in an African city is its deteriorated environmental condition. While this poses a critical health hazard to the populace, it is also a key factor that hinders economic growth and development. In this paper, it is argued that a complex set of factors such as the unparalleled rate of urban expansion, high population growth rates and high incidents of poverty have all contributed to the less than desired environmental condition of most African cities. It is further argued that there are other fundamental issues that underlie the unhealthy urban environment. These include the lack of public awareness, an inappropriate policy framework, inadequate political commitment, insufficient investments in infrastructure, and the lack of capacities within the gov...","PeriodicalId":85683,"journal":{"name":"The East African geographical review","volume":"27 1","pages":"39-48"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80241635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
