This paper introduces the results of a project initiated by Cantho University (CTU) on the introduction of micro-credits for addressing the environmental pollution in Vietnam’s craft villages. At Tan Phu Dong, a traditional rice powder production village in Sa Dec, Dong Thap, all wastes from domestic and production activities and animal husbandry were freely disposed into open water sources. This practice led to a negative impact on the local environment. With the financial support provided by the Bread for the World (BfdW), a micro-credit program was initiated in which farmers could borrow money to construct a biogas plant to treat animal husbandry and domestic wastes. In addition, the staff transferred biogas plant construction technology to the local masons and organized training courses on biogas plant operation and maintenance and biogas usage for the farmers and the local officials. 61 farmers borrowed money from the program to construct their biogas plants, followed by more than 250 farmers that constructed their biogas plants by their own finance after realizing the positive benefits of biogas plants. As result, the environmental pollution issue was solved step-by-step, thereby helping enhance the living conditions of the local communityBài báo này trình bày biện pháp sử dụng nguồn quỹ tín dụng nhỏ để các hộ dân cải thiện tình trạng ô nhiễm môi trường ở các làng nghề Việt Nam.

This research uses a mixed methods approach to analyze recent climate and land use changes, and farmers\' perceptions of climate change and its impacts on traditional agriculture in the village of Keur Samba Guéye (KSG). This work looks at the influence of social beliefs in adoption of new strategies by small farmers in this region, a topic that has received little or no study to date. Traditional agriculture in KSG is not very productive at present because of the impoverishment of the area and traditional agricultures strong dependency on natural climatic conditions. In this research, I identified recent climatic trends, documented changes in land use/land cover (LULC) from 1989 to 2011, and assessed farmers\' perceptions of climate change and their responses to such changes. To document climate trends and LULC, I analyzed climate data of twelve meteorological stations located across the country and created a classification of satellite images of KSG for two time periods. To examine farmers\' perceptions and agricultural practices, I conducted surveys of the farmers of KSG and in surrounding villages. Most farmers reported negative impacts of climate change on their agriculture activities, and interest in adopting new agricultural strategies despite long-standing tradition. Increasing temperatures and irregularity of rainfall may have negatively impacted crop yields, but more climate data are needed to clarify this phenomenon. LULC has been influenced by both climate change and human pressure; agricultural land has declined, while bare soils have increased. Several recommendations are provided that may help farmers to cope with changing climate.Master of Science

Повний текст джерелаАнотація:
The transformation of traditional gender ideology has been actively promoted in Mexican society over recent decades. While adults’ renegotiations of traditional ideals and their efforts to forge modern relations have received significant ethnographic attention, little is known about how children in Mexico engage with the contradictions inherent in the coexistence of old and new expectations. This thesis, based on twelve months of ethnographic fieldwork, explores children’s readiness to resist gender divisions and embrace gender equality in the Mexican village of Metztitlán in the state of Hidalgo. The research focused on the, often contradictory, information that was made available to children at home, in the neighbourhood and in the school setting and on how children, aged between six and eleven, negotiated expectations that concerned aggressive behaviour, toy use and the division of labour. The thesis asks whether children regarded gender divisions as problematic and, if they did, whether this translated into readiness to resist traditional expectations through everyday interactions. It pays particular attention to how different kinds of audiences both influenced and were influenced by children’s resistance to gender divisions. The finding is that in domains, such as toy use or the division of labour, in which egalitarian alternatives to traditional expectations were available (e.g. through schooling), most girls and boys, in conversations with the anthropologist, expressed their allegiance to gender equality. However, children did not put these attitudes to work through interactions with peers and adults unless they found personally meaningful advantages in egalitarian arrangements. When they recognised tangible benefits of equality, they not only showed readiness to resist traditional divisions themselves but also to encourage adults to do the same.

The proponents of New Urbanism claim the neighborhoods they design, called Traditional Neighborhood Developments (TNDs), promote community, sense of place, physical health, and environmental sustainability. Critics assert that community is stressed at the expense of individuality, that design unity has become rigid uniformity, and that the neighborhoods are orchestrated and do not reflect real life. This thesis, a post occupancy evaluation (POE), examines how one TND works for its residents and whether it accomplishes the goals of the architect/planner. An additional, essential purpose of this POE is to serve the "feed-forward" role of informing future neighborhood planning projects. The Village of River Ranch in Lafayette, Louisiana is the site of my research. Utilization of multiple research methods (survey, interviews, naturalistic observations) offered opportunities for triangulation and the ability to produce a more comprehensive analysis.

Protecting traditional villages and vernacular architecture is a worldwide issue but more urgent for developing countries. In China, modernization and urbanization are bringing tremendous changes to traditional villages and accelerating their disappearance. This thesis takes a traditional village in a mountainous area of southwest China as its study case. Based on field investigation, the thesis discusses the village’s formation process in the past and transformation in a contemporary era.
The research object, Tangdu Village, is located in the Huangping County of Guizhou Province. As a typical mountain village, Tangdu situates at altitudes varying from 750-950 meters above sea level. It is a moderate size village compared with surrounding villages, with 3.2 square kilometres administrative area and 371 households. The aborigine, Ethnic Ge, a minority without official recognition, is still continuing traditional crafts, such as silver jewellery making, batik, embroidery, etc. Modernization is changing the landscape of the village in recent years. This can be seen as modern concrete brick multi-floor buildings are gradually replacing traditional wooden houses. Until now there is no protective measure for traditional wooden buildings in the village. Neither external force for tourism nor commercial exploitation are affecting this change; all the construction activities are ‘internally motivated. This series of facts makes Tangdu village an ideal object for study. It epitomizes an autarchy village’s evolution process from pre-industrial productivity and economy to contemporary urbanization and modernization.
The purpose is to understand the inherent factors underline the symptoms. Based on this idea, a non-discriminatory inventory was compiled for all buildings and other structures. This database offers further information for future research.
Regarding the landscape formation process, as a mountain village, the construction of terraces is the first intervention by inhabitants to shape the environment. There is a closed connection between terracing of paddy fields and terracing buildings. The homogeneous form of the traditional building is derived from the compatibility between the architecture and the mountain. Additionally, a distinct feature is the morphology of the settlement – high density construction of the residences and irregular form of the courtyard, which connotes the previous agricultural structure. Furthermore, the construction of a traditional house shows some degree of feasibility; the wooden houses can be dismantles, relocated, and reassembled, along with the transplantation and recyclability of building material inside or even outside the village. Meaning, if the terrace is immovable, the vernacular architecture can be described as “movable” property.
The formation of the landscape of this village can be seen as a long-term unconscious collective construction. Accidental, short-term or pure individual behaviour cannot achieve the quality and quantity of the village landscape. Thus the synergy of the collective expressed by the landscape is more significant than the individual effect. However the spontaneity of the individual construction activity during this process causes the villagers failure to recognize the landscape is a kind of community resource. The habitants are unaware of the preciousness and the particularity of the landscape they possess in a contemporary era. With limited experience, the villagers compare their own house with that of the neighbours' or surrounding towns. Driven by community psychology and following, the construction of modern houses is becoming a competition of the rich. The traditional wooden house is treated as the symbol of poverty. The strong conflict between the modern and tradition breaks the previous harmony. The villagers do not realize that they have been contributors to the former landscape and do not realize they are the potential beneficiaries of the landscape, not just the custodians of it in the future.
The most noticeable transformation of the vertical landscape in the village is the increase of building height, mainly caused by modern concrete brick housing, flat roofs, and the construction of private courtyards surrounded by cement walls. Behind this is the degradation of the invisible social landscape, which is the inherent cause of devastation of the traditional landscape. In order to rehabilitate the landscape, what is needed is not only to preserve the cultural heritage, but also to rebuild the community. But the actual circumstance is that planning “invisible landscape” is usually beyond the capabilities of architects, who require the involvement of professionals from other disciplines in the village planning process, as well as the community’s participation. Fostering “vernacular architects” and stimulating the community’s cognition to landscape and cultural heritage may be the solutions.

The world today faces many challenges. Reducing poverty and protecting the environment are prominent amongst these challenges, and consequently both are high on priority lists for many national, international, governmental and non-governmental organizations. Since the 1980s there has been an increasing awareness that environmental protection must not fly in the face of social justice, especially in developing countries, and that a system can only truly achieve sustainability if it is socially just and economically sound, as well as environmentally secure. Likewise poverty reduction at the cost of the environment is worthless in the long term. This has given rise to much more holistic approaches to both conservation and poverty reduction policies and brought the rights of communities living in or near protected areas into the international focus. However, wether it is possible to conserve biodiversity and protect habitats successfully without undermining the livelihoods of local communities, or wether it is possible to offer development aid to an impoverished region without jeopardizing their local environment, is a question which has not been resolved. This study approaches this debate by examining the relationship between the livelihoods and natural resources of a rural village adjacent to a forest reserve on the Mambilla Highlands in Nigeria. A mixture of qualitative and quantitative techniques were employed during five months spent living on location to develop a picture of the situation as it currently exists, the environmental effects of development in the village to date, and the effects of these environmental changes on people’s livelihoods. Based on this research this thesis concludes that development in a region certainly increases the vulnerability of the environment. However, rather than concluding that this makes development and environmental protection conflicting agendas, this thesis argues that this period of vulnerability presents opportunities to develop true sustainability, as effective sustainable practices can develop from the experience of resource depletion. Additionally, examples of how knowledge sharing and dialogue between western scientists and indigenous communities has the potential to facilitate and accelerate this process are discussed.

This research is set in the context of a collaborative agreement between the Industrial Design
Department, University of Canberra and the Faculty of Applied Art and Design at Ubon
Rajathanee University in the northeast or Isan region of Thailand. In this thesis the textile
production of the region was studied with an objective of evaluating the potential for
product design process to positively influence production outcomes. Traditional textile
production techniques could be lost because these processes are complex and slow, and
the current environment, both physical and operational, is changing rapidly. Product
design and the design process are relevant to the industrial development of Thailand and
village textile production could benefit from structured design and manufacturing
strategies that have a consumer focus and improved production outcomes. From a critical
review of the relevant literature, it was found that village weavers valued the traditions of
their craft and traditional patterns and colours were important in terms of cultural identity and
village social organization. Product design process or more specifically, the Generic Design
Process (GDP) was reviewed and a model developed that adapted the GDP to the prevailing
research environment. The findings led to a program of field research including village
interviews where the major issue of the devaluation of traditional natural material dyeing
techniques was identified. Field experiments tested alternative dyeing techniques which were
evaluated in a survey by village weavers. During the field research care was taken to adapt to
the way in which village weavers lived and worked as the two activities were closely
interrelated. The degree of skill and knowledge residing in the aging women, who constitute
the majority of village weavers, in extensive and profound, and is often described as an
example of local wisdom. The theoretical and experimental work has been related, with
appropriate results and conclusions, to the potential for maintaining traditional natural dyeing
processes albeit with different preservation techniques. The findings from this research
suggests that product design processes are appropriate for village production and that the
tradition of natural material colour dyes will survive, new colours were created and the
potential for new trade in preserved colour dye products. Substantial databases of useful
relevant information have been compiled and recommendations are made for future
research.

Studies into architecture in Botswana posit that architecture in the capital city- Gaborone is a result of the imposition of British culture received through the historical conditions of colonisation and independence. This study seeks to go beyond this generalisation by examining architecture in Botswana, grounded in the construction of national and ethnic cultural identities, a sense of history, the idea of culture and its implication on space. It explores the relationship between identity politics and architecture. It traces various postcolonial identity-making practices in the city and traditional villages, which I argue, reveal a scenario whereby identities are re-interpreted and re-inscribed as part of the process of postcolonial manifestations of identities in space. Gaborone was planned as a capital city during the transition to self-rule and was envisioned as a mirror image of a nation, this process involved a search for postcolonial national identity and nation-building imperative. By analysing the archival documents and case study material on the city's planning legacy in relation to the socio-political context, I argue that these material facts provide a lens through which the representative spaces of the nation and state can be critically examined. I suggest that the process of envisioning the city is far more complex and nuanced than it is usually portrayed in literature, and it entails the negotiation between design professionals, the extant Tswana political elite, and colonial administrative officers. The study traces the persistence of national identity construction within the post-colonial period in the urban spaces. It illustrates that the spaces provide a platform where the national ii culture and identity is being formed, promoted, legitimised and consumed through national institutions and cultural activities such as markets and performances. In contrast, the recent ethnic cultural consciousness amongst ethnic communities presents a contrasting case of the construction of culturally derived identities. The analysis of the historic core of the village traces how the ethnic group of Bakgatla is constructing their own cultural spaces by examining historical and cultural landscapes of the Phuthadikobo cultural precinct and the Moruleng cultural precinct. The study argues that the built environment in postcolonial Botswana should be examined in connection with the wider socio-political changes; in this regard, the study draws theoretical insights from cultural studies, colonial, nationalism and postcolonial studies. It makes a contribution to the recent literature on architecture in postcolonial countries, which seeks to go beyond the perspective of colonial power representation as domination, but the constant negotiation between actors and practices. Additionally, it contributes to the conceptualisation of architecture and urbanism in relation to the construction of identities and meaning.

This thesis is an ethnographic study of Taulli, a “Peruvian peasant community” (PPC) in the highland region of Ayacucho. PPCs are a paradigmatic type of Andean community with distinctive communal features and great historical significance. The thesis offers a detailed case study that contributes to an understanding of the maintenance, current role, and functioning, of these communities in the early Twenty-first Century. Additionally, this case study reassesses key theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of Andean cultures, defending the ongoing validity of community ethnographies and many aspects of 1960s-80s research in the Andean region (particularly its “long-termist” approaches). Specifically, the thesis examines the current role that the community (as a PPC) plays for the Taullinos -such as its respective advantages and disadvantages- in a context where far-reaching social change coexists with rich local traditions. On the one hand, it is argued that the community has become a channel through which Taullinos acquire access to new services and benefits, largely resulting from increased state intervention through unprecedented development-related initiatives. Despite their limitations and mixed results, it is shown how these initiatives partially adapt to and reinforce the local PPC status. The combination of this state intervention and other factors of change, especially emigration, are deepening local integration into national society and have brought remarkable improvements to the quality of life of Taullinos. Nonetheless, such processes are also hampered by severe problems and challenges, largely linked to a legacy of social exclusion and discrimination. On the other hand, it is argued that the community and local traditions continue to offer Taullinos a strong sense of identity and social cohesion, and some important practical advantages, in the context of social change. In particular, through their participation in the local communal organisation and ritual celebrations, which are key foci of this study. Furthermore, it is demonstrated how local traditions are dynamically reinvented to serve as a primary channel through which Taullinos experience and accommodate change. Therefore, although the local communal system is demanding and has many limitations, Taullinos unanimously accept and identify with it, and with the PPC status that guarantees its continuity.

Thesis (M.Dev.) --University of Limpopo, 2012The main aim or purpose of this study was to look at the ways and the strategies of minimizing\ mitigating the over-harvesting of indigenous medicinal plants in order to use them sustainably. The task of identifying and assessing challenges facing local communities in utilizing and sustaining indigenous medicinal plants in Thengwe village and their implications on environmental conservation and management of natural resources was done during the pilot survey. The environmental field survey was conducted after gaining permission to enter into the identified study areas including the Mutavhatsindi Nature Reserve. The result revealed that most of the indigenous medicinal plants are used for healing, religious, economical and for protection purposes. Most of the indigenous medicinal plants in the study area are depleted and many of them are facing extinction. The study was qualitative in design. Semi-structured interviews and a questionnaire were used. The questionnaire had both open-ended and closed questions. The study area was Thengwe Village in the Mutale Municipality. The existence of medicinal plants is threatened by people `s perceptions and attitudes towards them. For some indigenous medicinal plants, depletion is at a high rate due to over-harvesting and because the plants when traded by herbalists they have a premium price attached to them. Interestingly, perhaps surprisingly, the majority of young people hold negative attitudes towards the indigenous medicinal plants due to poor knowledge of the value of indigenous medicinal plants, in contrast to the elders who appreciate their role and consider them as part of their culture, economy and religion. One of the findings is that medicinal plants were found to be important to the community members as the source of income and creation of jobs for the medicinal collectors who sell the species to traditional healers. For the reason of preserving indigenous medicinal plants and others as the environmental resources, this study recommends that there should be strong intergovernmental relationships between the National, Provincial and Local governments in order to prevent over-harvesting of the medicinal plants. The indigenous medicinal plants are equally important to biodiversity students and researchers who want to study and research indigenous medicinal plants which play an important role in the improvement of the livelihoods of community members. Furthermore, education campaigns within the communities and school learners are recommended to encourage the prevention, sustainability and utilization of the indigenous medicinal plants. Additionally, the legal authorities should be empowered to prosecute all people who may be found illegally in possession of indigenous medicinal plants, as well as endangered and protected species. Heavy fines and charges should be imposed on such culprits. Of importance is the fact that the results and recommendations of this study may facilitate the teaching of environmental education and management of natural resources as well as boost the local economy of the Vhembe district Municipality by showing that medicinal plants in the area can be seen as a viable tourist attraction.

This thesis research analyzes how Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) can be used to understand extant Northeastern Plains Village (NEPV) settlement strategies in aggregate for the purposes of subjoining a subsequent verification metric to the current archaeological classification system used to describe NEPV associated sites. To accomplish this task, I extracted Traditional Ecological Knowledge from ethnographic sources for comparison to geospatial, geostatistical, and statistical analyses. My results show that the hierarchical clustering exhibited among NEPV sites is congruent with first person narratives of habitation and resource collection activities occurring in the pre-Reservation period (before AD 1880) within the research area. This study emphasizes the importance of the incorporation of Traditional Ecological Knowledge into material typological classification schemes for archaeological sites which are convoluted by a high rates of cultural transmission.

Oral history is an important component of Palauan heritage and living culture. Interaction of oral history and archaeology is regarded as a policy when conducting research in Palau, both within the Bureau of Arts and Culture, responsible for protection and preservation of cultural remains in Palau, and among researchers not representing BAC. Legally, a material remain is proven significance if it is connected with intangible resources, such as "lyrics, folklore and traditions associated with Palauan culture". This paper examines and discusses the connection of oral history and archaeology, which will be presented through three case studies: the earthworks on Babeldaob, the traditional stonework village of Edangel in Ngardmau state, and the process of nominating a cultural remain for inclusion in the National Register for Historic Places. The nomination is a good reflection of the interaction between archaeology and oral history, where association with intangible resources is virtually necessary. The two specified types of archaeological remains are compared to one another regarding presence in oral traditions and significance for Palauans. Based on the information obtained from personal experience, interviews and literature, it can be concluded that an archaeological or historical site is valued more by its connection to oral history than to its archaeological qualities, which in turn effects how protection and preservation is administrated, financed, and carried out.

Includes bibliographical references.There is little doubt that traditional leaders continue to make an indelible mark on the practice of politics across the continent of Africa. In democratising South Africa, the relevance of this institution is debated extensively. In the main, traditional leaders are described as the embodiment of patriarchy, comprised of unelected male representatives who rule with "clenched fist" on an unwilling populous (Mamdani, 1996:23). It is argued that traditional authorities "...can only secure legitimacy by drawing its sustenance from the modern state, working as a complement to democratic local government" (Southall and Kropiwnicki, 2003:76). In light of these assertions, this thesis answers two questions: do traditional leaders have a role to play in democratising South Africa?

ABSTRACT “FGM is known to have no health benefits and has serious, immediate and long-term physical and psychological health consequences, which can be severe, including post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety and reduced desire or sexual satisfaction” (28 Too Many, 2014, p5). This master thesis is an attempt to gain male perspectives in strategies to eradicate Female Genital Mutilation, FGM. The aim is to gain an understanding on how men view the concept of FGM in relation to existing norms such as gender, social and international norms. Literature tends to focus less on men’s roles and views compared to on women´s for how to end FGM. The male perspective is very important especially as literature shows that cultural practices in most cases benefit men compared to women as is shown in the case of FGM. Men are held in high esteem as the ones with a final deciding voice in the homes, institutions and the general community. This was also the case in the village of Mabonkani. Men hold powers to enable or prohibit actions and practices. Therefore, if FGM is to end, men can, because of their positionality spearhead effective campaigns and awareness raising messages. Focus groups and interviews were used to obtain information. The empirical findings were analysed and categorised and then presented in tables, graphs and themes. The findings revealed a conflictual decision making that men face if/when they decide to abandon FGM as it is heavily tied to their cultural and social identity. Abandoning the practice also means that they face ostracism by their own community members, loss of identity as a family man and community member, breaking up social cohesion among other reasons. Men are keen on ending FGM after lengthy discussions on its complications at a personal and social level. Men expressed that they preferred the training of women than the removal of clitoris. They offered various solutions including sending girls to schools to address issues of informed consent/age as well as getting young people to be more involved in and to include all actors instead of picking just a few. The views of household men and youth were different. The youth embraced international norms. They suggested that it is up to them to change the future of the next generation through the information available and they no longer claim ignorance about FGM as was the case earlier. All men interviewed cited challenges of identity, ostracism by their own community and lack of national laws to support their actions. The analysis looked at the human rights approach, how local communities can be influenced to abandon traditional harmful practices in favour of international norms that will promote gender equality and breakdown structural and systematic norms that discriminate.

Tese de Doutoramento em ArquitecturaA problemática do património no contexto internacional centrou-se nas últimas décadas na investigação sobre o património arquitectónico erudito, mas não na mesma dimensão sobre o património rural. Uma paisagem, um lugar, um simples edifício, possui história, identidade própria, em que os seus traços, vestígios e marcas resultam da acção do Homem, conferindo-lhes significado e identidade. A valorização da paisagem humanizada como recurso cultural tem sido referida em documentos de organismos internacionais, dentro de uma orientação estratégica e de uma visão integrada do processo de desenvolvimento regional e local. Do mesmo modo, o património construído e o património intangível são encarados como parte integrante e indissociável da paisagem. Qualquer iniciativa ou intervenção só pode ser bem sucedida se for cumprida neste quadro de referências. Nesta abordagem o lugar é entendido como território cultural diversificado (quanto ao enquadramento, à implantação, às funcionalidades e usos, aos conteúdos, às tecnologias e recursos, ao significado). O modelo apresentado – Aldeia Sustentável – foi elaborado numa perspectiva operativa para que a problemática do património não seja isolada no domínio das políticas culturais e / ou entendida como mero e exclusivo instrumento de industrias do turismo. Tem por objectivo impulsionar e melhorar o Plano - Plano de Aldeia – enquanto instrumento operativo de planeamento e gestão de novas experiências de desenvolvimento local e regional, com base nos recursos patrimoniais dos territórios culturais. Os aglomerados urbanos, em meio rural, constituem um potencial estratégico, que contempla para além de um inesgotável valor patrimonial, um laboratório vivo de análise da importância da relação entre o construído e a paisagem natural, permitindo uma reflexão sobre os processos de intervenção que acentuam o conceito de paisagem cultural.
During the past decades the International Cultural Heritage has been focused mainly on historical architecture, neglecting countryside buildings. Modern evolutionary theories have been considering other important domains, e. g., the landscape, some small isolated villages, a single building, which are also relevant, with important cultural information. Throughout history, the human activity has left its fingerprint into the environment with a distinctive character. The “Human Landscape” is a new structuring concept that has been referenced by several international organizations, and it is deemed to be included into the local and regional development policies. Similarly, the built heritage and intangible heritage are seen as integral and inseparable part of the landscape. Any initiative or intervention can only be successful if it is achieved in this frame of reference. In this approach, the place is perceived as diverse cultural territory (on the framework, the deployment, the features and uses, to content, the technologies and resources, the meaning). The model now presented – the Sustainable Village – was developed as an operational concept. The problem heritage is not alone in the field of cultural policies and / or understood as a simple and unique tool for the tourism industry. Its aim is to foster and improve the Plan - Village - operating as a tool for planning and management of new experiments in local and regional development, based on the resources of the territories cultural heritage. The built areas, in rural areas, are a potential strategic, which is beyond an inexhaustible asset value, a living laboratory for the analysis of the importance of the relationship between the built and natural landscape, allowing a reflection on the process of intervention that emphasize the concept of cultural landscape.

A growing number of studies concerning cultural villages have in most instances tended to focus on the cultural village as almost legitimately self-explanatory and have not been particularly concerned with either how a particular history is produced in and through these villages, or with the ways that particular discourses and practices associated with heritage, tourism, community and development intersect in the production of these meanings. As such Mgwali Cultural Village seemed to promise something different in the form of cultural villages. The thesis argues that Mgwali Cultural Village is unique in the history of cultural villages in that it moves away from presenting a cultural village in Africa as tribal and primitive. It does this by opening up spaces for other aspects such as Christianity and resistance politics, story of Tiyo Soga rather than focusing and confining itself only to aspects cultural portraying Africans and traditional. It is imperative that cultural villages ought to be understood within a broader framework and context where its definition and presentation is not trapped into an anthropological paradigm thinking of exploring and discovering something new by tourists which they are not familiar with. However, the thesis also argues that much as Mgwali Cultural Village promised something new from the known through depiction of other aspects, those histories seem to be absent or marginal at the Cultural Village. The only aspects that are fore grounded are traditions and culture thus freezing Mgwali as a village and its people in time as if they have not evolved and its cultures are static and not dynamic. The thesis therefore explores all those contradictions, silences, or absence thereof of other stories and histories.

Each year, a large number of tourists visit it (more than 1000. 000 paying visitors). They come from the bigger cities in search of a "lost tradition", of a "native land" fantasized by the mass media. This mountain village, of recent settlement, has been renamed "Village of the blue Crane", a geomantic appellation, full of a certain meaning heavily seeped in Korean history. It is made up not only of different religious groups but also of those belonging to no religious group whatsoever. The materials collected during the field-work, investigation of summer 1999, bring us to study the social change of this microsociety in constant communication with the ouside world. What is the organizational structure of the village? How do these men, who came in this place to lead a spiritual research, resist the invasion of tourists?

La présente étude tente de contextualiser les schémas contemporains des forces sociales dans un village pendjabi, qui ont pour résultat des modifications des pratiques traditionnelles. En effet, il y a des modifications des structures sociales traditionnelles, mais plusieurs pratiques sociales importantes restent liées à leurs racines, ou du moins ne sont pas complètement déracinées. Ainsi, il est probable que la pratique de vartan bhanji (échange de dons) dans un village pendjabi soit un cas utile pour la compréhension des transformations des liens sociaux et leur signification social par rapport à leur rôle et leur importance historique. La présente étude tente également d’analyser les moyens et mécanismes présents, qui remplacent les pratiques traditionnelles et les rôles des différents acteurs. Par conséquent, l’étude tente de combler le fossé des questions restées sans réponse en ce qui concerne la pertinence sociale et l’importance relative des acteurs dans un environnement mouvant lorsqu’il s’agit de pratiques sociales. Par exemple, l’importance de biraderi étant donné la mutation du rôle des familles avec l’augmentation de la mobilité et sa pertinence actuelle comme capital social sera l’une des préoccupations centrales de la présente étude. Un intérêt connexe sera le rôle de la terre comme facteur important dans la vie d’un village, malgré les mutations de sa signification socio-économique. L’étude veut présenter une analyse ethnographique des défis posés à l’importance socio-économique actuelle de la terre comme seul facteur déterminant le statut social et la position économique de l’individu, qui a maintenant tendance à varier, avec une grande diversité de choix professionnels pour la population d’un village dans son ensemble. Cette diversité d’options professionnelles doit être évaluée comme un défi pour la compréhension traditionnelle de la constitution et de la préservation des seules catégories de zamindars et de kammis. Cette division entre les deux catégories sera discutée comme relevant de différentes pratiques et préférences, représentant l’une ou l’autre des catégories. Par ailleurs, à l’intérieur de cette traditionnelle structure catégorielle, l’étude a essayé de situer et de comprendre des sources de prestige et d’honneur plus récents, qui sont organisées et explicitement manifestées lors de mariages, et implicitement calculées lors des rituels funéraires. La présente étude veut demander, dans les sphères individuelles ou collectives, qui remplit quelle fonction et avec quel type d’attentes par rapport aux rôles traditionnels. Il est attendu que l’étude mettra en lumière le potentiel évolutif de facteurs de base tels que les rôles de genre, la famille et l’efficacité de biraderi dans un contexte mouvant et plus largeThis study contextualizes the contemporary patterns of social change in two adjacent Punjabi villages near Burewala Tehsil of Punjab (Pakistan). I have attempted to explore both the continuity and change in traditional social structure through the schematic study of the tradition known in vernacular parlance as vartan bhanji (gift exchange). The study analyzes present positions of people in broader categories of zamindars (land owners) and kammies (artisan castes), when the configuration of Punjabi personhood bargains between tradition and transition in same. Therefore, the study tries to bridge the gap of unanswered questions regarding the social relevance and comparative importance of primary actors i.e. biraderi and role of land ownership as mediating agents of both change and continuity. I have aimed to present an ethnographic analysis of the challenges to the current socio-economic importance of land as sole determinant of one’ s social status and economic position, which now tends to alternate with diverse professional options for the people of both the villages of study. This comparatively recent diversity of professional options is assessed as a challenge to the traditional understanding of the formation and preservation of the sole categories of zamindars and kammies as fixed identities. Therefore, the division between both the categories and within each category is to argue the case of changing economic order and the resultant social structure as mutation of one form of Bourdieusian capital into another form. The study also probes into nature of gendered roles, which make, shape and live both marriages and deaths as peak periods of socialization. Thus, the study highlights the changing potential of primary actors like role of land, gendered positions, the family as basic unit of social organization and the contemporary importance of biraderi in rural Punjab

Ce travail de recherche se concentre sur les questions du développement respectueux de la ville de Hué et de ses environs, en accordant une importance spécifique à la conservation et la mise en valeur des qualités faisant la particularité de cette ville et des villages avoisinants. La recherche est construite dans le contexte où le processus d'urbanisation et la prolifération des nouvelles zones urbaines et des nouveaux quartiers résidentiels ont entraîné de nombreuses menaces et dangers pour cette ville et ont engendré la perte des valeurs caractéristiques de ce territoire. Les hypothèses de la recherche abordent les relations entre la conservation, la mise en valeur et la gestion durable du patrimoine, du système de l'eau et des valeurs caractéristiques des villages d'ores et déjà inscrits dans le développement environnemental, économique, socioculturel de ce territoire. Les corpus principaux utilisés dans cette thèse, sont des données de cartographique GIS Hué 2010 et des cartes anciennes traitées par la l'analyse cartographique et l'analyse comparative des documents, des ouvrages historiques concernant la ville de Hué et des villages d'étude, ainsi que des entretiens, des questionnaires d'enquête, des relevés photographiques récoltés lors de nos séjours d'étude de terrain à Hué. Grâce à la méthodologie d'analyse, surtout l'analyse cartographique et la méthodologie d'enquête de terrain, nous pouvons définir des caractères spécifiques de ce territoire et démontrer des menaces et des dangers principaux pour cette ville et ses environs face aux processus d'urbanisation. Dans la recherche, nous avons également l'ambition de proposer ce qu'il faudrait mettre en œuvre pour un développement respectueux de l'environnement écologique, de la qualité de vie et du bien-être des habitants, des potentiels de l'économie locale, et de même que des valeurs caractéristiques de la ville de Hué et des villages avoisinantsThis research focuses on the issues of the respectful development of Hue City and its surroundings, with a specific emphasis on the conservation and the regeneration of qualities, which constitute the peculiarity of this city and surrounding villages. The research is built in the context where the urbanization and the proliferation of new urban areas and new residential neighborhoods led to numerous threats and hazards to the city and resulted in the loss of characteristic values of this area. The hypotheses of the research concern the relationship between conservation, regeneration and sustainable management of heritage, water system and characteristics values of the traditional villages with the environmental development, the economic development, the social and cultural development of this territory. The main corpus used in this thesis is the data mapping GIS 2010 Hue and the ancient maps , these documents, historical works for Hue city and study villages, and interviews, survey questionnaires, photographic records collected during our field survey in Hue. Thanks to the analytical methodology, especially the cartographic analysis and the onsite survey methodology, we can define the specific characteristics of this area and demonstrate the main threats and hazards to the city and the surroundings caused by the urbanization. In this research, we also aim at offering what to do in order to reach a friendly development of the ecological environment, the quality of life and the comfort of local citizens, the potential of the local economy as well as the characteristic values of Hue City and surrounding villages

Dalia Jazukevičiūtė (g. 1952 m.) – viena populiariausių, moterų rašytojų Lietuvoje. Pirmuoju Lietuvos nepriklausomybės dešimtmečiu autorė išgarsėjo tiriamosios žurnalistikos straipsniais. Jazukevičiūtės kūryba apdovanota ne viena premija, o jos trys romanai Anarchistės išpažintis, Juodas kvadratas, Dviejų mėnulių baras susilaukė didelio literatūrologų dėmesio. Rašytoja savo romanuose vaizduoja kuriančią moterį ir jos ieškojimus gyvenime.
D. Jazukevičiūtė kuriančios moters stereotipą priešpastato iki tol literatūroje vyravusiam tradicinės moters paveikslui. Tradicinė moteris literatūroje buvo vaizduojama kaip atsisakanti savo interesų, nenorinti ar nesugebanti keistis kartu su besikeičiančiu pasauliu. Jazukevičiūtės romanų tematika apima kuriančios moters gyvenimo istoriją. Autorės kūryboje iškyla ne tik vaizduojamojo laikotarpio peripetijos, bet ir skaudi moteriškoji patirtis.
Ryžtingas Jazukevičiūtės „silpnosios“ ir „stipriosios“ lyčių kaip socialinės problemos išryškinimas, moters paveikslo keitimas, kritikų ir skaitytojų vertinimai, liudija moteriškosios problematikos aktualumą.
Magistro darbo objektas - kūrybine veikla užsiimančios moters „aš“ raiškos problema, remiantis D. Jazukevičiūtės romanų Anarchistės išpažintis (2007), Juodas kvadratas (2007), Dviejų mėnulių baras (2008) pagrindinių veikėjų, Katerinos N., Stellos ir Marijos gyvenimo istorijomis.

[toliau žr. visą tekstą]Dalia Jazukevičiūtė (D.O.B. 1952) is one of the most popular women writers in Lithuania. During the first decade of Lithuanian Independence the author earned her fame by the articles of investigative journalism. The creational work of Jazukeviciute is awarded for some times and her three novels “Anarchistės išpažintis”, “Juodas kvadratas”, “Dviejų mėnulių baras” received much attention from literary specialists. In her novels the writer depicts creating woman and her searches in life. D. Jazukeviciute sets the stereotype of creating woman against the picture of traditional woman, which prevailed in literature till then. Traditional woman in literature was depicted as rejecting her own interests, not wanting or not being able to change with the changing world. The topics of Jazukeviciute’s novels includes life story of a creating woman. In the author’s creational work not only peripeteias of depictive periods are raised, but also a painful woman’s experience. Resolved emphasis of Jazukeviciute’s “weak” and “strong” genders as a social problem, change of woman’s picture, evaluations of critics and readers witness relevance of womanly problematic. The object of master thesis – self-expression problem of a woman, engaged in creative activity, with reference to life stories of protagonists Katerina N., Stella and Marija from the novels by D.Jazukeviciute “Anarchistės išpažintis” (2007), “Juodas kvadratas” (2007), “Dviejų mėnulių baras” (2008).

The Extractive Reserve , which is evident by the law 9.985/2000 is an area of public domain to be used by traditional extractive populations whose livelihood is based on the extractivism and, additionally , on subsistence agriculture and breeding of small size, and has as objective protect the livelihoods and culture of these populations , and to ensure the sustainable use of natural resources unit ( BRAZIL , 2000) . Thus , to see this issue more closely , we chose this survey in the State of Sergipe , especially in the estuarine zone of Piauí and Fundo rivers , covering streams and fragile ecosystems of Municipalities Itaporanga D´Ajuda, Indiaroba and Santa Luzia Itanhy in whose areas is being made possible the possibility of creating and implementing the Extractive Reserve of the South Coast . Had as objective to evaluate conflicts of use / appropriation locked around the process of implementing the Extractive Reserve of the south coast of Sergipe . The methodological approach to structure the research in question was developed through analysis of landscape units . In order to characterize the social actors involved in the data collection procedure , the instruments of interviews and literature were used . For both , this search was structured through a qualitative and quantitative approach , guided by the analysis of landscape units . Finally , it is reiterated that this research did not seek the development of absolute truths but rather a scientific knowledge grounded in previously defined methodology. At the end of the research and preparation of this thesis, it was realized that the established territorial conflicts around the deployment process RESEX South Coast of Sergipe configures multiple territories that affect the social actors involved in the process from appropriation by actors social engaged in commercial activities, and social reappropriation of space by traditional communities. Produced and exposed results in this thesis can serve for the agents involved in the conflicts themselves as a material awareness and self-criticism , assisting in the search for ways to mediate conflicts .A Reserva Extrativista, pelo que se depreende da lei 9.985/2000 é uma área de domínio público que deve ser utilizada por populações extrativistas tradicionais, cuja subsistência baseia-se no extrativismo e, complementarmente, na agricultura de subsistência e na criação de animais de pequeno porte, e tem como objetivos básicos proteger os meios de vida e a cultura dessas populações, e assegurar o uso sustentável dos recursos naturais da unidade (BRASIL, 2000). Desse modo, para se enxergar mais de perto tal questão, optou-se por esta pesquisa realizada no Estado de Sergipe, sobretudo na zona estuarina dos rios Piauí e Fundo, abrangendo cursos D Água e ecossistemas frágeis dos Municípios de Itaporanga D Ajuda, Estância, Indiaroba e Santa Luzia do Itanhy, em cujas áreas está sendo viabilizada a possibilidade de criação e implantação da Reserva Extrativista do Litoral Sul . Teve-se como objetivo avaliar os conflitos de uso/apropriação travados em torno do processo de implantação da Reserva Extrativista do Litoral Sul de Sergipe. A abordagem metodológica que estrutura a pesquisa em questão desenvolveu-se através da análise das unidades de paisagem. Visando caracterizar os atores sociais envolvidos, no procedimento de coleta de dados, foram utilizados os instrumentos de entrevistas e pesquisa bibliográfica. Para tanto, tal coleta foi estruturada através de uma abordagem quali-quantitativa, orientada pela análise das unidades de paisagem. Por fim, reitera-se que esta pesquisa não buscou a elaboração de verdades absolutas e sim de um conhecimento científico embasado em metodologia previamente definida. Ao término da pesquisa e elaboração desta dissertação, percebeu-se que os conflitos territoriais estabelecidos em torno do processo de implantação da RESEX do Litoral Sul de Sergipe configuram múltiplas territorialidades que atingem os atores sociais envolvidos no processo a partir da apropriação, por parte de atores sociais envolvidos em atividades comerciais, e Reapropriação social do espaço pelas comunidades tradicionais. Os resultados produzidos e expostos nesta dissertação podem servir para os próprios agentes envolvidos nos conflitos como um material de sensibilização e autocrítica, auxiliando na busca por formas para mediação dos conflitos.

Unsafe abortion claims the lives of thousands of women every year. Globally, it is the women in Sub-Saharan Africa who face the highest risk of death and injury from abortion-related complications (Ahman & Shah 2011, p.123). Current global and national efforts to reduce incidences of unsafe abortion are ineffective in the rural Ghanaian community where this research was undertaken. This anthropological examination of key aspects of contemporary local social practice and the norms and customs which underpin it, demonstrates the necessity for many local women to utilise a dangerous plant to facilitate potentially fatal self-induced abortions as their primary means of resisting culturally-defined fertility patterns. This thesis is broadly structured around anthropologists’ Scheper-Hughes’ and Lock’s (1987, p.6) concept of three intersectional bodily perspectives: the phenomenological individual body-self, the social body and the body as an artefact of political control. The reader is offered insight from each of these perspectives into the social practice of unsafe abortion in the lives of rural Ghanaian women. I argue that unsafe abortion can be seen as a kind of social struggle against the local economic mode of production. The thesis provides an analysis of the position of many women within local relations of production from a neo-Marxist perspective which has been modified by concepts of class and exploitation particular to pre-industrialist societies. The modifications are taken from the theoretical positions of French anthropologists Terray (1975), Meillassoux (1972) and P.P Rey (1975). In addition, following the work of critical medical anthropologist Scheper-Hughes (1993), the thesis demonstrates the ways in which medical discourses and policy output about family planning and reproductive health which are produced and reproduced at the level of the national body politic, obscure more deeply embedded powerful ideologies and social praxis about female sexuality and reproduction which is produced and reproduced at the level of the social body within the context of popular interpretations of tradition and customary law. Ultimately, I argue that current Programmes of Action aimed at reducing incidences of unsafe abortion fail to address patterns of gender violence and patriarchal control by medicalising some village women’s social suffering.

This thesis develops an ethnoarchaeological approach to the study of traditional Mediterranean pastoral economies through a case-study of two mountainous village territories in eastern Spain. The research has two main aims: first to rescue an important corpus of ethnographic data from a rural community whose traditional economy is being eroded and secondly, to provide insights into how pastoral economies in antiquity can be studied archaeologically. The thesis adopts an interdisciplinary methodology, synthesising oral, documentary and archaeological data sources, and applying the techniques of landscape archaeology. The research ultimately examines two aspects of the pastoral economy that leave signatures in the archaeological record: herd management strategies and pastoral sites. Throughout, it is emphasised that a pastoral economy based on sheep and goat herding is intricately linked - socially, economically and physically - to an agricultural landscape of terrace cultivation. Chapter 1 defines the scope and purpose of the research and Chapter 2 presents the geographical, historical and archaeological setting for the case-study. Chapter 3 explores aspects of traditional pastoral land-use and examines linkages between terrace agriculture and herding. Chapter 4 is concerned principally with ethnographic data relating to herd management su ategies and develops a model of kill-off pattern analysis through computer simulation. Chapters 5 and 6 address pastoral sites within the study area: the former analyses structural and spatial aspects, whereas the latter deals with abandonment processes and site taphonomy. Chapter 7 draws the conclusions of these chapters together and Chapter 8 explores the wider implications of the study. Appendices I-III contain primary documentry and archaeozoological data and Appendices IV-V comprise a gazetteer of pastoral sites within the study area.

In recent years, the debate about Fundos and Fechos de Pasto communities has grown considerably. This can be recognized as a major step forward in the context of academic thought that can insert more intensely in the national agrarian context and structure. It was necessary to analyze some intricacies that pertain to communities daily life, particularly regarding their relationship with the State. In this sense, the objective of this dissertation is to analyze the relationship between the process of struggle and resistance of Fundos de Pasto communities and territorial development policy at Monte Santo city, in Bahia state, Brazil. Along this, the creation of institutional territories ("rural" and "da cidadania" on a national scale, and "de identidade" on a regional scale) is related with the way as today the State behaves as an agent in the capitalist production of geographical space. From the methodological point of view, the approach was based on analytical historical and dialectical materialism and the geographical perspective of the production of space, with territory as central concept. The research was based on a predominantly qualitative analysis, using primary data (interviews and focus groups) and secondary (from government and non-governmental institutions). Fundos de Pasto communities reality in general and specific features of Monte Santo municipality were analyzed in the first few chapters, taken quantitative and historic data of agrarian economy into account, aiming to recognize and to spatialize the various ways in which locally materializes the peasant conflict for land/territory. After this, it was considered the process of internationalization of capital and their reflections about the State, relating to the way in which public policies are designed. Finally, it was more thoroughly analyzed the insertion of Monte Santo municipality and their communities in the context of Território do Sisal and the State s management and planning mechanisms, linking it with the various interests that are stroked and the connection between appearance and essence in building institutional territories. It is acknowledged that the territorial development policy necessarily exists following two basic premises, which are essentially convergent: first, it will never be viable from the democratic and popular State point of view, because it will not be from institutional mechanisms that will have its nature changed; second, the territorial development policy is completely feasible from the point of view that might become the guarantor of capital progress from mechanisms that incorporate social participation as save-conduct.O debate sobre a questão das comunidades camponesas de Fundo e Fecho de Pasto tem crescido consideravelmente nos últimos anos. Isso pode ser reconhecido como um importante avanço no contexto do pensamento acadêmico que pode inserir de forma mais intensa essa discussão na conjuntura e estrutura agrária nacional. Ainda assim, sentiu-se a necessidade de analisar alguns meandros que perpassam o cotidiano dessas comunidades, principalmente quanto a sua relação com o Estado. Neste sentido, o objetivo geral desta dissertação é analisar as relações entre o processo de luta e resistência das comunidades de Fundo de Pasto e a política de desenvolvimento territorial no município de Monte Santo, estado da Bahia. Com isto, tem-se em conta que compreender a criação dos territórios institucionais ( rurais e da cidadania em escala nacional, e de identidade em escala estadual) é problematizar essencialmente a forma de atuação do Estado enquanto agente na produção capitalista do espaço geográfico. Do ponto de vista metodológico, teve-se como fundamento analítico o materialismo histórico-dialético e a perspectiva geográfica da produção do espaço, com centralidade para o conceito de território. A pesquisa baseou-se em uma análise predominantemente qualitativa, utilizando-se de dados primários (entrevistas e grupos focais) e secundários (provenientes de instituições governamentais ou não). Nos primeiros capítulos, considera-se a realidade das comunidades de Fundo de Pasto de uma forma geral, bem como as especificidades do município de Monte Santo. São levados em conta dados quantitativos e históricos da conjuntura agrária, objetivando reconhecer e espacializar as diversas formas como se materializa o conflito pela terra/território camponês localmente. Após isto, considerou-se o processo de internacionalização do capital e seus reflexos sobre o Estado, relacionando com a forma como as políticas públicas passam a ser pensadas. Por fim, analisa-se mais detidamente a inserção do município de Monte Santo e de suas comunidades no contexto do Território do Sisal e dos mecanismos de gestão e planejamento do Estado, relacionando-o com os diversos interesses que são traçados e a conexão entre aparência e essência na construção dos territórios institucionais. Reconhece-se que a política de desenvolvimento territorial existe necessariamente seguindo dois prismas básicos (que, em essência, convergem): primeiro, nunca será viável do ponto de vista de democratização e popularização do Estado, porque não será a partir de mecanismos institucionais que este terá a sua natureza alterada; segundo, a política de desenvolvimento territorial é completamente viável do ponto de vista de que pode se tornar a garantidora do avanço do capital a partir de mecanismos que incorporem a participação social como salvo conduto.

As the placeless globalization is accelerating around the world and especially in China, places that have strong ties to the particularities of a locale are desirable destinations to escape the generic monotony of placeless urbanization.
The thesis here stipulates that even in a placeless globalization, opportunities exist to understand, interpret and celebrate local cultural phenomena. While many formal architectural artifacts may have outgrown their purpose and no longer have direct relevance today, a number of desires, customs and rituals persist as desirable conditions to be supported by architectural space.
The thesis proposes to seek out an architecture, that embraces and reinterprets targeted aspects of the built form of traditional elements with modern means.Master of Architecture
This thesis discusses possibilities to reinterpret the vernacular. Specifically, the sense of identity generated by the architecture traditions in Western China can be attributed to shape and construction of the roof, organization in plan, the central fire place, and a protected courtyard all enclosed by rammed earth. Reinterpretations of those elements in modern forms propose a continuity of culture and identity.

Ethnopharmacological relevance: Medicinal plants still play an integral part in the livelihood of people in the rural areas. The aim of this study was to document information about the medicinal plants used by Shangaan people in villages under Jongilanga Tribal Council, Ehlanzeni district, Mpumalanga. This is the first documentation of medicinal plant uses in the study area, and it provides significant pharmaceutical information. Methods: An ethnobotanical survey of medicinal plants was conducted using a semi-structured questionnaire with 15 traditional healers as informants; one of them also served as a field guide during data collection. The results were analysed by using various quantitative indices such as information consensus factor, user report and conservation status. Biological assays (antimicrobial assay for Prevotella intermedia and Candida albicans, antioxidant assay was tested using 1.1-dipheny-2-picrylhydrazyl free radical scavenging assay and cytotoxicity assay was determined using the XTT method) of the medicinal plants were analysed.
Results: The study reported 207 medicinal plant species belonging to 54 families. The Fabaceae family was the most represented family of all the medicinal plants recorded in the study. Roots were the most frequently used plant part, accounting for 56 % of the parts reported, while decoction is the most common method of preparation to treat various ailments. The most treated ailment category is skelto-muscular pain and swelling and urenogenital disorders, which account for 20% and 19% of plants collected, respectively. The medicinal plant use value ranged from 0.06 to 0.27. From the 207 collected medicinal plant species, ethanol extracts of 90 plants were prepared and tested for their antimicrobial properties. Eighteen plant extracts showed good activity compared to the positive control Chlorhexidine. The most significant antimicrobial activity was shown by Combretum collinum and Terminalia sericea with MIC and MMC values ranging between 0.39mg/ml and 3.13mg/ml. All 18 extracts that showed antimicrobial activity were also tested for antioxidant and cytotoxicity activities. The best antioxidant activity was shown by Combretum collinum, Sphedamnocarpus pruriens, Rhoicissus tridentata and Kalanchoe thyrsiflora respectively, with IC50 values ranging from 1.653μg/ml to 1.81μg/ml, compared to the positive control vitamin C, which is 1.62μg/ml. Six plant extracts (Catunaregam sp A, Peltophorum africanum, Phyllanthus reticulatus, Sphedamnocarpus pruriens, Terminalia sericea and Xerophyta retinervis) showed little toxicity or were not toxic at all against human cell line U937. Conclusion: This study revealed that medicinal plants are still widely used in rural areas and this documentation can serve as an ethnopharmacological basis for selecting plants with potential pharmaceutical properties. Future work will focus on identifying and elucidating the active constituents of the active plant extracts.Dissertation (MSc)--University of Pretoria, 2015.

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the local villages and its changes in social space under the implementation of combat village system by studying local records and official documents during the military rule and using research methods, such as oral interviews and space identification. The study tried to investigate the influences of policy implementation and the establishment of combat villages on the changes in social space of villages. Quemoy is located at the southeastern sea area of Fujian, and has always been a stronghold since ancient times. With the influences of Cold War, the wars between China and Taiwan, and the governance of country, many laws, rules, constructions were promoted here, which contributed to the significant changes of social space of local villages, and indirectly led to the rise of combat village system. The most direct influences on local villages were the emergence of military defense constructions in the spaces of combat villages in response to war demands. The defense constructions in chyonglin combat village are famous for the perfect scale of combat tunnels. In addition, the implementation of combat village system also reinforced the practice of civil defense, which had invisible impact on the clan society. The rise of combat village system directly influenced local villages and also brought inerasable unique experiences to residents. By investigating the life experiences and memories of local residents, the study summarized the influences of combat village system. In addition, it also conducted an in-depth and complete investigation on battlefields by investigating both local and national history.

In the past decade, the rapid aging population and rising healthcare cost had become two of the most debated topics among government bodies and scholars. This thesis will focus on the discussion of resolving the above two concerns with our proposed health-village based on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Ultimately promoting healthy aging among the elderly generation, coupled with the massive reduction in healthcare cost for the individual and government bodies. The current healthcare system in Taiwan especially has been facing severe unequal distribution of healthcare resources and in some cases, abused by individuals and healthcare agencies to exploit the monetary rebate offered by the government policies. The accumulation of such unscrupulous practice has caused Taiwan to have one of the world’s highest GDP to healthcare cost ratio. In the long run, this is definitely not the smartest and most sustainable model to engage in solving the problem of an aging population and rising healthcare cost. In this thesis, we propose an alternative solution. Our health-village will adopt TCM and traditional Chinese exercises – including Tai Chi, to allow the elderly to age healthily and happily. First, we start off by discussing the differences in philosophy to methodology between TCM and Western medicine. Next, we layout the fundamentals of our proposed health-village. After which, we move on to discuss and compare the benefits and side-effects of both TCM and Western medicine. Lastly, we conclude that our health-village based on TCM is highly beneficial and adaptable for the mass public and any country. It not only gives any elderly or sick patient a solution to full recovery, but is also beneficial and sustainable in the allocation of resources for a country in the long run.

This research is based on the space of lanes and alleys in traditional Qionglin village that managed by Kinmen national park agency. It appears that the preservation and revitalization of traditional villages that locate in the area of Kinmen national park have done well, traditional houses become guest-house after revitalization. The space of lanes and alleys and the buildings should be considered at once. The width and slopes of lanes and alleys formed naturally, although mended and paved with new stone, it still has the original appearance entitled to nature diversity of traditional villages. The historical characteristics of the space of lanes and alleys, delicate balance, with a difference in elevation, original cultural heritage of villages. This dissertation is about the transition of lanes and alleys of Qionglin traditional village, and the preservation of its characteristics. Most of the traditional villages in Kinmen are developing and expanding around ancestral hall as its core. Because of multi-generation changes, military control and warfare, it is hard to describe the relationship between the space and structure of lanes and alleys and communities comprehensively. The study employed field research method by means of observation, interview, and field survey and mapping to collect data, for learning and comprehend the forming rule of the space and its cultural meaning, reviewing the relationship between the spaces, clan communities, environment and culture. Clan is the main cause of establishing of traditional village in the beginning. The earliest member of clan that flight from Central Plain to the Kinmen and live in a community, can be traced back to the Song Dynasty. Clan that live in a community is the most important factor in developing into a village in Kinmen, it is the central of everyday living. the relationship between the members of clan are very close, the developing of the space of lanes and alleys is very special. The purpose of this study is to uncover the specific relationship between the lanes and alleys in traditional village, to investigate and analyze the process of formation and development of Qionglin Village, through compilation and record, providing reference for traditional villages preservation in the future, for more deeper interpretation of traditional village culture.
