Abstract:

There has been significant debate about the land occupations which occurred from the year 2000 in Zimbabwe, with a key controversy concerning the role of the state and ruling party (or party-state) in the occupations. This controversy, deriving from two grand narratives about the occupations, remains unresolved. A burgeoning literature exists on the Zimbabwean state’s fast-track land reform programme, which arose in the context of the occupations, but this literature is concerned mainly with post-occupation developments on fast-track farms. This article seeks to contribute to resolving the con

Abstract:

This article examines the role of legal actors in mediating urban land conflicts involving informal settlements and the social and environmental functions of private property. This problem reveals the challenges of conciliating two constitutional rights—the right to adequate housing and the right to a healthy environment. Methods include an analysis of the urban policy and legal framework regulating environmental protection, housing provision, property rights, and land use law. The legal case analysis of Ocupação Anchieta, a young land occupation in São Paulo’s periphery, offers additional evi

When we closely approach the lifestyle of the people of the Sangam period, the people of that time have their own lifestyles and occupations according to the backgrounds of five landforms Kurinji, Mullai, Marutham, Neithal and Paalai. The lifestyle and culture of the people of these five lands have the common elements of the people of the Sangam period, but when we approach these subtly, it is possible to know that each land's people operate with their own unique lifestyle norms, social structure, and cultural elements.

Abstract:

The vast majority of city planning literature on informal occupations has focused on how residents occupy vacant and peripheral land, developing informal structures to address their basic needs. A smaller body of work, but one with much purchase in South Africa, explores the informal occupation of existing formal structures and how residents infuse these emergent places with social and political meaning. Across this work, occupations represent a dominant mode of city-building in the Global South. Contributing to this debate on city-making and occupations, this paper departs from an unusual cas

Abstract:

In recent years, housing movements and their activists have gained more prominence as housing has become increasingly unaffordable. In Brazil, land occupations, a tool for housing access, are mainly composed of Black women—the most vulnerable societal group. Black women have developed a vital role in the housing struggle, being responsible for the occupations’ management and their victories. Still, they are invisible to part of society and to some scholars.

Coastal landscapes of the Pacific coast of South America are regarded as bountiful biomes, as they are zones on the fringes of Eastern Boundary Upwelling Ecosystems.

However, local-scale differences reveal the variability that is concealed by this broad characterization.

An important unresolved issue in u.s. policy in Asia after World War ii is the variation in the scale of land reforms in Japan and southern Korea during postwar American military occupation of these nations.

This study asserts that the source of the variation lies in the different degrees of security threat to the two u.s. occupations. In Japan, the United States enjoyed a favorable security environment.

Bacias hidrográficas são consideradas unidades de estudo para o gerenciamento dos recursos hídricos, bem como para o planejamento adequado de diferentes usos e ocupação do solo, visto a necessidade de acesso à água. A Bacia Hidrográfica do Rio Benfica - BHRB, localizada na Região Metropolitana de Belém (RMB), apresenta uma urbanização desordenada, suprimindo áreas verdes e as margens dos cursos d’água, potencializando processos erosivos e assoreamentos dos rios. Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar a influência de diferentes usos e ocupação do solo, associada à declividade e ao escoamento su

AbstractThis paper examines acts of land ‘self-provisioning’ (‘siziphile’ land occupations) and ‘radical land restitution’ (of land previously annexed from people by the local authority for a pilot grazing project) by villagers in a communal area in Lupane District in north-western Zimbabwe. Situating these occurrences within the wider and historical context of ‘madiro’ (freedom farming and unauthorised development of settlements) and Matabeleland land politics and semi-proletarianisation, it stresses the livelihood history of households, the disappointments with local job opportunities and de

Background. The Canadian Association of Occupational Therapists and the Truth and Reconciliation Commission recommend change within the Canadian health care system, respecting and valuing Indigenous health and healing practices. Adjusting the lens through which occupational therapists practice to incorporate Indigenous views of health and wellness is one potential change. Purpose. This critical interpretive synthesis of the literature incorporates Indigenous perspectives on health and wellness into the Canadian Model of Occupational Performance and Engagement (CMOP-E) framework, strengthening

The land consists of high peaks, small hills and dense forest with irregular routes and various layers. The basic occupations such as food gathering, hunting and agriculture were carried out by the people who lived there.

Anthropology plays a very important role in the fields of fully researching man. The main reason for this may be that anthropology reveals the biological norms and morals of man. Anthropological elements and theories play an important role in the modern world today. Among such novels Cho. Thurman’s Sahitya Academy Awardwinning novel `Chool’. The highlight of the day is to showcase the natural biology of the Karisal dialect agricultural people. Usually, the biography of agricultural people is centred on their land and land-based activities. Thus, the land-based activities of the Karisal land ag

Abstract:

With data from 683 systematically selected households, the study employed the Heckman two-stage model and the propensity score matching method (PSM) to examine the impact of youth participation in agriculture as a primary occupation on income and poverty in Nigeria. The results indicate that the gender of the youth and their determination to stay in agriculture significantly increases the probability that youth will participate in agriculture as a primary occupation. In addition, youth participation in agriculture as a main occupation contributes significantly to per capita household income an

Abstract:

In this paper, we present a comparison of two rural landscapes in the southeast of the Iberian Peninsula, where the dynamics of occupation have differed since the end of the ancient world in terms of both the degree of resilience of settlements and the land use. Our purpose was to explore the social, political, economic, and environmental factors that could explain why there has been a long-term cross-cultural occupation of some resilient sites and landscapes for almost a millennium, while there have been only very specific temporary occupations in other areas.

Thus, it is a natural phenomenon that has been going on since ancient times to the present day. Kurinji, Mullai, Marutham, Neithal, and Palai are the five kinds of land life that can be found in Sangam literature. This is a classic example of how people developed their professions according to their land type. In this way, the Kurinji land people depended on hunting, honey picking, millet sowing, preserving them, etc., in the hilly areas, the Mullai land shepherds were grazing goats and c

Based on ethnographic research carried out on the outskirts of São Paulo, the article proposes to identify the actors and power games inscribed in the arrangements surrounding the formation of urban occupations that take place amidst an intricate web of interests involved in the urban expansion of land and housing markets. Contrary to what is often assumed, the installation of an occupation involves arrangements, negotiations and disputes between the most different actors, which take place in the gray zone that blurs the boundaries of formal-informal, legal-illegal.
