The Evolution of the Rural Community
1. Hunter-gatherers: Age-grade societies
2. Settled Subsistence Agriculturalists
![Page 11: PIA 2528 Governance, Local Government and Civil Society](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56813e10550346895da7f041/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

The Evolution of the Rural Community-2
3. Cattle Keeping
4. Plantations, Commercial Farms and Agri-Business
5. So-Called Communal Tenure
![Page 13: PIA 2528 Governance, Local Government and Civil Society](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56813e10550346895da7f041/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Traditional: Communal
The term is misleading- there are an infinite number of land relationships- Note Three
1. Use same land for individual benefit (cattle rearing)
![Page 15: PIA 2528 Governance, Local Government and Civil Society](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56813e10550346895da7f041/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Communal Land
2. People use same land and pool proceeds- aspiration in socialist countries. (Communalism):
Little evidence in traditional society
COLLECTIVE FARMS AND FARM FACTORIES
![Page 16: PIA 2528 Governance, Local Government and Civil Society](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56813e10550346895da7f041/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Modernization- Western (and to some Colonial) Land Divisions
a. Individual ownership and control of land with rights of transfer, inheritance and sale
b. Usufruct: Leasing of Land
c. Landed elites- landed aristocracy
d. MNCs as plantation farmers- Firestone, Dole and Unilever

The Problem of Landlordism Tenancy relationship to large hacienda,
plantation or commercial agricultural enterprise
In much of the world, Land is traditional controlled by land-lords
Vast majority of rural peasants in some form of tenancy relationships
![Page 24: PIA 2528 Governance, Local Government and Civil Society](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56813e10550346895da7f041/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Landlordism
Serfdom: legal linkage to land and ownership
Small scale subsistence agriculturalist- produce for food
Reality: Peasants- dependency relationship to land
![Page 26: PIA 2528 Governance, Local Government and Civil Society](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56813e10550346895da7f041/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Rural Socialism as an ideology in the 1960s
1. Peasant collectives and Communal state farms- Soviet Union
2. Voluntary collectives- Ujamaa villages in Tanzania
3. Move the peasant away from individualized production (China)
4. Ideal: village level economies of scale
5. Reality: Failure- Collectives, prefectoralism and state enterprises (State Agri-Collectives)
![Page 28: PIA 2528 Governance, Local Government and Civil Society](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56813e10550346895da7f041/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Individual Land Tenure: Results
Landless Rural Workers- Sell their labor in cities, to plantations, to small farmers or as a labor export (regionally or internationally)
The realities and limits of collective finance: From Burial Societies to micro-credit schemes
How to define individual relationship to land: FAILURE OF LAND TENURE REFORM

Rural Development and civil society
Induced Rural Transformation-Approaches
1. Radical Transformation- urbanizationa. Primacy of
Industrialization
b. Emphasis on infrastructure and mechanization of farming
![Page 32: PIA 2528 Governance, Local Government and Civil Society](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56813e10550346895da7f041/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Rural Development
2. Green Revolution: Variant of above. Capital intensive and export oriented. (Landlordism?)
a. Focus is primarily on Technical (seeds, equipment- focus is on extension and technical)
b. Economies of scale mean large farms
![Page 34: PIA 2528 Governance, Local Government and Civil Society](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56813e10550346895da7f041/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Problem: Critics of “Capitalist” Commercial Farming- LDCs Lack of an Alternative and Failure of Collective
Agriculture
Failure of and agricultural transformation except for parts of Southeast Asia (plus war and weather)
Lead to the decline of the state and the intervention of NGOs - Relief and Humanitarian activities
