Local-Level Politics in Uganda Local-level Politics in Uganda: Institutional Landscapes at the Margins of the Benjamin Jones Development Studies Institute London School of Economics Submitted for the degree of PhD 2005 ABSTRACT Uganda has been considered one of Africa's few "success stories" over the past decade, an example of how a country can be transformed through a committed state bureaucracy. The thesis questions this view by looking at the experiences of development and change in a sub- parish in eastern Uganda. From this more local-level perspective, the thesis discusses the weakness of the state in the countryside, and incorporates the importance of religious and customary institutions. In place of a narrow view of politics, focused on reforms and policies coming from above, which rarely reach rural areas in a consistent or predictable way, the thesis describes political developments within a rural community. The thesis rests on two premises. First, that the state in rural Uganda has been too weak to support an effective bureaucratic presence in the countryside. Second, that politics at the local-level is an "open-ended" business, better understood through investigating a range of institutional spaces and activities, rather than a particular set of actions, or a single bureaucracy. Oledai sub-parish, which provides the empirical material for the thesis, was far removed from the idea of state-sponsored success described in the literature. Villagers had to contend with a history of violence, with recent impoverishment, and with the reality that the rural economy was unimportant in maintaining the structures of the government system. The thesis shows that the marginalisation of the countryside came at a time when central and local government structures had become increasingly reliant on funding from abroad. Aside from the analysing the weakness of the state bureaucracy, the thesis goes on to discuss broader changes in the life of the sub-parish, including the impact of a violent insurgency in the late 1980s. The thesis also looks at the role of churches and burial societies, institutions which have been largely ignored by the literature on political developments in Uganda. Religious and customary institutions, as well as the village court, provided spaces where political goals, such as settling disputes, building a career, or acquiring wealth, could be pursued.

Though it sounds complicated, bricolage means simply the piecing together of new ways of thinking or doing based on what is already there. The word can also be used to describe the way the thesis has itself been constructed, as it has been built up from the contributions of a number of people, places and institutions, whom I would like to acknowledge and thank. My thanks are due, first and foremost, to the people from the sub-parishes of Oledai and Agolitom who contributed their time, energy and analysis to the study. My thanks should also be extended to the staff at Vision Terudo, a local charitable organisation that provided me with a room to work in and a place to stay. In particular I would like to thank Churchill Ongole and Florence Among for their support and advice during my long stay in the area, and Ongit John, Isaiah Oonyu, Cuthbert Malinga and Aogon Sam for their friendship and conversation. In Kampala I have to thank Harriet Acham and Nathan Ogwang for their hospitality and friendship, for being my adoptive family. I must also thank my family back in the UK for their support and generosity throughout the thesis. To my parents, and to Nick and Matthew, my deepest thanks. At the London School of Economics I would like to thank the research and administrative staff for their support throughout the thesis research. My supervisor Liz Francis was immensely supportive of the thesis project. I would also like to thank Dru Daley, Sue Redgrave and Steph Davies for making my stays at the Development Studies Institute both productive and enjoyable. Rachel Wrangham, Thi Minh Ngo and Elliott Green provided help and support at critical moments in the thesis.

At that time, there were no minimum standards for the meaningful engagement of PLHIV, KVPs and CSOs and discussions with the U.S. government regarding Uganda’s COP would take place only in meetings at the U.S. Embassy. PLHIV, KVP and CSOs worked to ensure that the engagement processes became truly community- owned and community-led. They established a structured calendar, clear expectations of civil society and of PEPFAR Uganda, and a shared focus with PEPFAR Uganda on improving the accountability of the HIV response for communities and CSOs. This is the third edition of The People’s Voice; the first was facilities which are located in 28 districts (see Table A, page 3) published in 20191 and the second in 2020.2 Successes resulting during the CLM pilot phase (August-September 2020) and Focus from these efforts over the years include: introduction and scale Group Discussions (FGDs) with community representatives.

  • Administrative Report: Uganda Census of 1991 INTRODUCTION
    Administrative Report: Uganda Census of 1991 INTRODUCTION The 1991 Population and Housing Census Administrative Report that I now have the pleasure to submit, is the last publication among several reports that mark the completion of the 5th systematic Population Census held in Uganda since 1948 when the first fairly systematic census was carried out. The 1991 Population and Housing Census was the first census in the country to include a fairly detailed survey of the stock and conditions of housing in Uganda. The central concern of this report is to describe in some detail, the trials and tribulations of the administration and management of the 1991 Population and Housing Census. It reveals aspects of successes recorded and problems encountered in the course of managing the three stage activities of the census, namely the pre- enumeration, enumeration and post-enumeration activities. It is our hope that a detailed description of what took place through all these phases will guide future census administrators in this country and help the data users to determine the likely accuracy, of, and strengthen their faith in, the data they are using. The 1991 Population and Housing Census was a result of an agreement between the Government of Uganda and the UNFPA signed in March, 1989 although the idea and negotiations started way back in 1986. For various logistical reasons, the date of enumeration was shifted from August, 1990 to November/December the same year, and finally to January, 1991, which made it close to eleven years from the date of the 1980 census. The census project was funded by the Government of Uganda to the tune of U Shs 2.2 billion and by the UNFPA and UNDP at $5.7 million, DANIDA $ 850,000 and USAID shs.
