- W2564789872 abstract "Patience Mutopo. 2014. Women, Mobility and Rural Livelihoods in Zimbabwe: Experience of Fast Track Land Reform. Leiden: Koninklijke Brill NV. 257 pp. Patience Mutopo uses frequentative multi-sited ethnography at Merrivale farm-Tavaka village to explicate how the Fast Track Land Reform Programme (FTLRP) offered new chances for the development of women. The book challenges the existing scholarly beliefs and opinions about rural land use, livelihoods, and development done by women. The author uses a case study of Mwenezi District in Masvingo Province unbefitting for rain-fed crop growing, to communicate the unknown, compound and inventive strategies and tactics employed by women to access land that they exploited broadly to shape their livelihoods that were based on transitory mobility. It emerges that contrary to western beliefs, which assert that personal rights are a panacea for women in Africa to obtain land, it was instead the need based negotiations which prevail in patriarchal systems and survive on contracts that empowered women to access land. The reader is informed that access to land during the FTLRP was also a pathway to natural resources that include water, firewood, and mopani worms, some of which were traded in South Africa, thereby signaling the benefits of the FTLRP. Women's achievements during the FTLRP were necessitated by collective action and conflict resolution skills that were engaged as they negotiated access to land, produced food crops and established trading space in South Africa. Overall, women emerge as actors in rural development, economic transformation, and social reproduction in Tavaka village. The book contains eight chapters. The first chapter presents the author's research plan and discusses the link between the conceptual framework and social anthropology. In the second chapter, it is apparent that the research was built upon qualitative research methodology. Furthermore, the chapter furnishes the background to sampling, explains data collection methods and the significance of using ethnography, and outlines the challenges encountered during the course of the research. Chapter three provides the geo-physical location and characteristics of the study area across the pre-colonial, colonial, and post-colonial periods. More so, it examines the local agricultural, social, political, climatic, and governance issues that influenced the establishment of the FTLRP farms plus people's livelihood preferences. In chapter four, the reader learns about the history of Merrivale farm: its establishment, mobility patterns since 1957, farming activities set up, and black-white relations that shaped current and historical land uses. …" @default.
