University of Cape Town Nature and Power: A Critique of 'People-Based Conservation' at South Africa's Madikwe Game Reserve Sarah Bologna .

University of Cape Town ii Abstract People-based conservation is often portrayed as a mutually beneficial marrying of ecological and rural development objectives. In this thesis I examine the extent to which such approaches are indeed as ideal as the rhetoric suggests. Drawing on empirical ethnographic data gathered from Madikwe Game Reserve and three villages neighbouring it in South Africa's North West Province, I argue that people-based approaches to conservation and rural development are constrained by a number of factors. I show that they seem unable to operate independently of hegemonic development discourse, or to avoid using paradigmatic models that encourage gross simplifications. Their use of generalising models encourages binary thinking which precludes a sensitive understanding oflocal complexities. The neo­ liberal language that generally accompanies such approaches obscures how power operates both locally and regionally. Indeed, rhetorical changes from top-down to bottom-up, _people-centred routes to conservation and development seem to have little effect on the actual implementation of initiatives: local people have remained marginalised or excluded. In the Madikwe context, a politically correct over-emphasis on rural development rather than conServation meant that an economic definition of Madikwe as a potentially sUstainable business dominated the Madikwe project. Conservation was (rhetorically) sidelined.University Villagers were expected of Capeto benefit through Town a share in profits derived from ecotourism - not through visiting and sharing in the nation's natural heritage. Thus, the Reserve was the exclusive domain of privileged visitors, while villagers were denied access. Such an approach revealed that the managing agencies held a particularly synchronic view of development to which short-term economic benefits were central. It contrasted strongly with that of many villagers who argued that a major role ofthe Reserve should be to expose local school children to its conservation and tourism operations, to educate and encourage them in order that one day they might command top jobs within the Reserve. They argued that it was only through the long-term investment in future generations that local residents would ever truly benefit from and become significant partners in the Madikwe project. iii Acknowledgements Many thanks to all the fieldwork participants whose thoughts and perceptions fonn the bedrock of this project, and particularly to my field assistants, Seth Modisane, Naledi Rapoo and Moses Molefe, for their interest, enthusiasm and commitment to the fieldwork. I am indebted to the North West Parks and Tourism Board which commissioned the socio-economic survey and provided the financial support that made my field stay possible. Deepest thanks, especially, to Peter Leitner and Jennifer Seif for their encouragement throughout my fieldwork; to Richard Davies; and to Paul Daphne for sharing with me his rich knowledge of the social and political history of the area.

I am deeply grateful to my supervisor, Mugsy Spiegel, for his guidance, patience and hard work throughout the years.

  • Struggle for Liberation in South Africa and International Solidarity A
    STRUGGLE FOR LIBERATION IN SOUTH AFRICA AND INTERNATIONAL SOLIDARITY A Selection of Papers Published by the United Nations Centre against Apartheid Edited by E. S. Reddy Senior Fellow, United Nations Institute for Training and Research STERLING PUBLISHERS PRIVATE LIMITED NEW DELHI 1992 INTRODUCTION One of the essential contributions of the United Nations in the international campaign against apartheid in South Africa has been the preparation and dissemination of objective information on the inhumanity of apartheid, the long struggle of the oppressed people for their legitimate rights and the development of the international campaign against apartheid. For this purpose, the United Nations established a Unit on Apartheid in 1967, renamed Centre against Apartheid in 1976. I have had the privilege of directing the Unit and the Centre until my retirement from the United Nations Secretariat at the beginning of 1985. The Unit on Apartheid and the Centre against Apartheid obtained papers from leaders of the liberation movement and scholars, as well as eminent public figures associated with the international anti-apartheid movements. A selection of these papers are reproduced in this volume, especially those dealing with episodes in the struggle for liberation; the role of women, students, churches and the anti-apartheid movements in the resistance to racism; and the wider significance of the struggle in South Africa. I hope that these papers will be of value to scholars interested in the history of the liberation movement in South Africa and the evolution of United Nations as a force against racism. The papers were prepared at various times, mostly by leaders and active participants in the struggle, and should be seen in their context.
