Texto completo da fonteLittle is known about the vegetation, forests, useful plants and their patterns of use at the gradients of climate, geography and culture in Baitadi and Darchula districts, far western Nepal. The interactions among plants-people-places were analyzed using data from phyto-sociological studies, community interviews, and literature. Ecological sampling, participant observation, semistructured interviews, and informal discussions were held between February and September 2017. We compared plant collection, use and management of two culturally distinct groups (Baitadi and Darchula), who inhabit different physiographic regions, yet share the same ecological landscape, environmental resources and livelihood challenges. We hypothesized that the salient (visible, apparent and accessible) plants and places are likely to be more frequently foraged than the non-salient ones. We also hypothesized that the elderly, native and traditional healers living in rural and remote physiographic conditions possess more diverse and detailed knowledge of plant use and conservation than young, non-native and non-healer people. A total of 18 forest types including eight from the study districts showed that the study area is rich in forests and plants. A total of 975 plant species including 82 new species records and 23 new use reports to Baitadi and Darchula districts were recorded. There were 305 (31%) useful plant species including 122 useful reported in the present study. The people of study area showed a large repertoire of knowledge that helps them execute different strategies of plant use suited to their environment and geography. The knowledge of plant use follows a pattern according to ecological conditions (availability) as well as the cultural significance (transhumance, settlement) of the landscape. However, the latter prevails. Predominate foraging by the agro-pastoral communities from the remote undisturbed forests for quality products and medicines in Darchula district was divergent from the collections from ruderal areas in Baitadi district by generalist collectors for ritual purposes. The extensive usage of plants for socio-economic reasons, livelihood and rituals indicates that the plants and culture are inseparable. Conservation measures with acknowledgement of human, cultural, geographical and environmental variables, are therefore encouraged for sustainable management of the natural resources and traditional knowledge of the Baitadi and Darchula districts.

Texto completo da fonteThis study intends to investigate a facet of the race relations of the town of Stellenbosch within the context of state ideology and the reaction of the various local communities towards these policies. Against various internal and external forces, certain alliances were formed but these remained neither static nor constant. The external forces of particular concern within this study are the role of state legislation, Municipal regulations and political activism amongst the elite of the different racial groups. The manner in which the external forces both mould and are moulded by identity and the fluid nature of identifying with certain groups to achieve particular goals will also be investigated. This thesis uses the case study of the Muslim Communities of Stellenbosch to explain the practice of Islam in Stellenbosch, the way in which the religion co-existed within the structure of the town, how the religion influenced and was influenced by context and time and how the practitioners of this particular faith interacted not only amongst themselves but with other “citizens of Stellenbosch”. Fundamental to these trends is the concept of “belonging”. Group formation, affiliation, identity, shared heritage and history as well as racial classification – implemented and propagated by both political discourse and communal discourse - is located within the broader context of Cape history in order to discuss commonalities and contrasts that existed between Muslims at the Cape and those in Stellenbosch.

Texto completo da fonteThis thesis by publication is composed of a rationale, objectives, brief literature review, four papers, and a final chapter providing a conclusion and recommendations. At the time of submission, two papers have been published and a further two have been submitted to peer reviewed journals. Chapter 1 provides an overview of adverse pregnancy outcomes, stillbirth and smokeless tobacco consumption (STC), a brief literature review of the prevalence of STC, forms of smokeless tobacco products, reasons for STC, and health consequences of STC. It also describes the rationale for studying STC and stillbirth and for conducting this study in Australia and Bangladesh; and presents research questions, objectives, and a statement regarding ethical approval. Chapter 2 (Paper 1), reports an analytic cross-sectional study conducted among the South Asian ethnic population in Sydney, Australia. The title of the paper is “Smokeless tobacco consumption in the South Asian population of Sydney, Australia: prevalence, correlates and availability”, published in the Drug and Alcohol Review. The study showed that prevalence of ever consumption, more than 100 times consumption and current consumption were 72.1%, 65.9% and 17.1%. Over 96% of consumers reported buying smokeless tobacco products from ethnic shops in Sydney. Current consumption of smokeless tobacco products was associated with country of birth: Indians (odds ratio 5.7, 95% confidence interval 2.3-14.5) and Pakistanis (odds ratio 3.1, 95% confidence interval 1.5-6.5) were more likely to be current consumers than Bangladeshis after adjusting for socio-demographic variables. Chapter 3 (Paper 2), reports a large population-based analytic cross-sectional study conducted among married women in Madaripur, Bangladesh. The title of the paper is “Prevalence and Correlates of Smokeless Tobacco Consumption among Married Women in Rural Bangladesh”, published in PLoS ONE. The study showed that 31% of the cohort had never consumed smokeless tobacco, 44% were ever consumers but not current consumers, 25% were current consumers, and the mean age at first use was 31.5 years. After adjustment for demographic variables, current consumption was associated with being over 25 years of age (aOR=3.08, 95% CI: 2.26–4.20), being unemployed (aOR=7.00, 95% CI: 5.45–8.98), being Muslim, and being divorced or widowed (aOR=1.81, 95% CI: 1.42–2.29). Chapter 4 (Paper 3), “Health knowledge and smokeless tobacco quit attempts and intentions among married women in rural Bangladesh” has been submitted to Addiction. It reports that 45% of current consumers thought STC was good for their health and many ascribed medicinal values to it, e.g., 25% thought STC helped reduce stomach ache. Only 10% intended to quit while a quarter had previously tried to quit. Inaccurate knowledge of STC health consequences was associated with being older (aOR=2.65, 95% CI: 1.99–3.50), being less educated (aOR=2.04, 95% CI: 1.56–2.66), being Muslim (aOR=5.59, CI: 3.60–8.68), being unemployed (aOR=31.9, CI: 26.9–37.8), and being an income earner (aOR= 4.22, CI: 2.90–6.14). Having less education (aOR=2.52, CI: 0.98–6.45) and being unemployed (aOR=1.52, CI: 1.03–2.23) were associated with quitting intentions. Chapter 5 (Paper 4), reports a case-control study: “Smokeless tobacco consumption and stillbirth: Case-control study in Bangladesh”, finding an association between STC and stillbirth among married women in Madaripur, Bangladesh. This paper has been submitted to the British Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology. A 3.6 fold (95% CI: 1.90–6.90) increase in the odds of stillbirth was observed in women who consumed smokeless tobacco during their first pregnancy. Heavier users (>5 times daily) were at higher risk of having a stillbirth (aOR = 5.15, 95% CI: 1.67–15.8) than were less heavy users (1–5 times per day, aOR 1.67, CI: 0.67–4.17). Chapter 6 provides a conclusion and recommendations. The research reveals a high prevalence of STC in the South Asian population of Sydney and among women in rural Bangladesh. The case-control study revealed a dose-effect relationship between STC and stillbirth. The knowledge of women regarding the health risks of STC is poor and there are many myths circulating about supposed health benefits of STC. In Bangladesh, health awareness campaigns in mass media and school education should be used to improve knowledge of the harm of STC. Routine screening and cessation advice should be provided in primary healthcare settings, and consideration should be given to methods of regulating the smokeless tobacco market. In Australia, where mechanisms exist to control the supply of smokeless tobacco, enforcement of existing laws should be the priority.

Texto completo da fonteThe dissertation focuses on a particular community, religiously defined, residing in a certain area. It characterizes their particular beliefs and customs, and portrays the history and development. For this purpose several sources have been consulted and no less than 37 people interviewed. The Malay community of Gauteng predominantly originated from the Cape and Port Elizabeth. Their ancestors were originally posted to South Africa from the Dutch settlements in the Malay Archipelago during the 17th and 18th centuries as slaves and political exiles. Some of them, however, were people of high rank. The Malays settled in Johannesburg and Pretoria towards the end of the 19th century and in Nigel between 1976 and 1977. This area is presently known as Gauteng. The Malay community of Gauteng are all Muslims and predominantly followers of the Shafi‘î madhhab (Islamic School of Thought). They constitute a minority group both religiously and ethnically. The Malays of Gauteng furthermore consist of various ethnical groups who were classified as part of the Coloured population group under the Group Areas Act 41 of 1950. In Johannesburg and Nigel the Malays lived in Coloured residential areas but in Pretoria the Malays rather associated them with the Indian Muslims. In Pretoria the majority of the Malays therefore settled in the Indian residential area Laudium instead of the Coloured residential area Eersterust. The research highlights the prominent early ‘Ulamâ’ (Muslim religious scholars) in both the Cape and Gauteng as well as their contributions towards the preservation, growth and development of Islam in both areas. Unfortunately in the Gauteng province (formerly part of the old Transvaal province) the Malays were often denied their contributions and initiatives in the Islamic field by another Muslim ethnical group. Attention is paid to the Malay communities’ acceptance of various syncretistic elements and innovations in their daily Islamic belief systems and social and religious customs. These include certain practices during pregnancies, ‘aqîqah (birth ceremonies), grave worshipping, engagements, weddings, doopmaal (baptisms), religious celebrations and tamats (Muslim religious school graduations). The research shows how pure Islamic elements were diffused and transformed into a unique local version of Islam since their days of slavery. The said practices also reflect possible elements of Hinduism and local tribal customs in them. It is founded in the research that the Malay community practised syncretism in the spirit of pure Islam. Their syncretistic customs were never intended to show disrespect to Islam or to create a new brand of Islam. It was practiced by the majority of the Malay community rich and poor, educated and uneducated. The Malay community of Gauteng never realised nor were they aware that their various religious customs and cultures were actually syncretistic in nature and not part of pure Islam. It was only during the last fifteen years that they became aware of this fact. To many Malays what they were practising was part of Islam and as such will always be part of Islam and part of their heritage. Their practices, however, brings them into conflict with some of the Malay ‘Ulamâ’. The research also discusses the various dark superstitious beliefs of the Malays of Gauteng. These kinds of superstitious beliefs formed an integral part of the belief system of the Pagans prior to the advent of Islam. Unfortunately even today superstition still forms part of some Malays’ belief system which include elements such as visiting dukums (Malay spiritual doctors), fortune tellers; avoiding double weddings; superstitious beliefs pertaining to pregnant ladies, new born babies and the misperception that the month of Safar (2nd Islamic month) is filled with fear, ill fortune and bad luck. Some Malay ‘Ulamâ’ especially those who are alumni from the Dâr al-‘Ulûms tried and are still trying various methods to rid the general Malay community of Gauteng from their syncretistic practises and superstitious beliefs but unfortunately they are not very successful in it. Wherever and whenever these ‘Ulamâ’ officiate at Malay religious functions they would not participate nor allow or even encourage that any of the Malay syncretistic practices should be part of the proceedings. Since the Malays of Gauteng have moved to new mixed racial areas far from vibrant Malay communities the future of the Malay culture is however unpredictable. The research further focuses on the spiritual, educational and economical development of the Malays of Gauteng. Firstly it focuses on the fact that the Malays were forcibly removed from their homes in Johannesburg and Pretoria and compelled by the government to resettle in new Coloured residential areas. Here they were however afforded the opportunity to purchase their own residential properties and built their own businesses. (Formely the Malays were deprived by the authorities to rent businesses from government owned business enterprices). Secondly it focuses on the growth and development, deterioration and eventual resurgence of the Malay Hifz (memorization of the Qur’ân) tradition. A similar tendency is also reported with regard to the number of ‘Ulamâ’. Most students are nowadays trained locally at the Dâr al-‘Ulûms in South Africa. Formerly they were educated at institutions in India, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Egypt. Many Malay ‘Ulamâ’, past and present were known for their extensive academic qualifications. Thirdly the research focuses on the Malay ‘Ulamâ’s inability and unsuccessful attempts since 1923 to establish a recognized ‘Ulamâ’ body (theological council) in Gauteng. The research found that the Malay ‘Ulamâ’ had over the years resisted all attempts to unite on a common ground in Gauteng.
