Can neoliberal economics offer people like the Maasai opportunity and at the same time conserve Tanzania's natural heritage?
By lyndonbrecht
This is an informative book on a topic of considerable importance. Be aware that it is not a natural history, not essays about wildlife and conservation, and not a book that environmentalists in general will like. It should strongly appeal to a fairly narrow readership, those interested in the interplay between governments and other actors on the national and local levels in the context of conserving African wildlife. Gardner has wide experience in Tanzania; this is essentially an academic study, although rather more accessible than such studies usually are. Gardner is not easily described; the book uses terms like "political ecology" but I'd say policy studies and economics are aspects as well.
The specific area is the Liliondo area (and adjacent lands) in Tanzania, populated on the local level mostly by Maasai. The book covers about two decades of Masaai dealing with their national government, outside corporations, NGOs and the implications of an increasingly dominant neoliberalism (think of the Chicago school of economics, although it's more than that). The book provides historical context, such as Tanzania's vaguely socialist period (ending about 1985, with neoliberalism increasingly dominant in the country since).
Among the issues are ownership of land: a grazing commons such as is Maasai tradition seems to neoliberalism to be inefficient and wasteful, and in Loliondo leasing or selling land to organizations or companies that offer safari expeditions (he cites on estimate that one hunter spends as much in Tanzania as 50 to 100 non-hunting tourists) and some that offer other expeditions. The Maasai in this area, says Gardner, find the neoliberal approach to offer some possibilities to better preserve their rights and control over development, mostly by negotiating directly with outsiders. The Maasai as well benefit from increasing world interest in traditional peoples. Their position in the country is uncertain, because Tanzania is short on financial resources and local bureaucrats (as bureaucrats anywhere) don't particularly like resistance. The basic issue is land ownership, which to the Maasai is tied up with their group identity.
That's the book. I hope it doesn't sound too dry, it really is full of information. A lurking presence is the future. As I was writing this, I looked up some population projections. The 11 million Tanzanians of 1963 grew to 44 million in 2014 and will be 100 million by mid-century, with an end of century projection of 200 to 400 million. The country will strain to feed, educate and create employment for these people, and the Serengeti will have to produce substantial income to justify Tanzania's large investment in conservation, or its future is moot. Population projections for nearby nations also show sharp growth: Kenya for example by mid-century may exceed 100 million.
