摘要

埃塞俄比亚下奥莫河谷目前正在经历深刻的变化，部分原因是水资源开发干预。国家和企业合作伙伴正在实施大型水坝和灌溉计划；传教士正试图安装安全的水源。我们探讨了当地人对这些项目的接受程度，以及它们对群体间关系的影响。我们认为，水资源开发计划是想象力的技术，刺激人们想象不同种类的未来。这些动态通过在Nyangatom接受欧洲传教士钻探的新井的民族志工作得到了说明。

Pipe Dreams: Water, Development and the Work of The Imagination in Ethiopia's Lower Omo Valley

Ethiopia's lower Omo valley is currently undergoing profound changes, due in part to water development interventions. The state and corporate partners are implementing large dam and irrigation schemes; missionaries are attempting to install safe water supplies. We explore the reception of these projects by local people, and their implications for intergroup relations. Water development schemes, we argue, function as technologies of the imagination, stimulating people to imagine different kinds of futures. These dynamics are illustrated through ethnographic work on the reception of new wells drilled by European missionaries in Nyangatom.
