Risk of ideological assumption of the superiority of
one system of values over others is always present in projects in developing
countries. Ideological assumptions can be cultural and/or religious and/or
racial in character. Lars von Trier’s
film “Manderlay” (
Look at the following slide again :
Project structures at
each level.
Integrated development projects provide for the establishment of many
structures, amongst them :
Social structures.
Social security structures.
Local money structures.
Cooperative development funds.
Interest-free micro-credit funds.
Health structures.
Education structures.
Cooperative purchasing funds.
Waste recycling structures.
There are four levels:
1) Individual households.
2) Tank commissions.
3) Well commissions.
4) The central committee.
Usually, there are activity groups which can (reasonably)
be carried out at each of the levels. Some activities cannot be spread in this
way.
Review the discussion on subsidiarity in section 01. The chain of
responsibilities of this block 3.
Take, for example, the concept of non-profit
cooperative insurance. The individual may decide not to participate in the
systems of insurance set up. However, the basis for cooperative insurance is
the distribution of risk over as many participants as is necessary to give an
adequate coverage of the risk in question. On this subject refer to the history of Lloyds London.
1. Research.
On four
pages, one page for each of the four levels, make a list of the structures
cited, where applicable adding other
structures that you think should be included in your list. Next to each group
of structures, use your experience of life and your knowledge of the local
situation in your project area to note what you think could be created at the
level in question in your chosen area, taking the reached in your analysis
of subisidiarity in the
chain of responsibilities..
2. Research.
Choose any one of the groups of structures and draw on one page a diagram
showing how the activities are divided over the four levels. If you wish, you
may like to make a diagram for each of the groups of activities.
