Four chapters in the second part of the book are devoted to empirical investigations. In this part general NR-related conflicts and their characteristics found in the study area are documented. Most common formal and informal conflict management practices are discussed. The first case relates to conflict between old and new users on an old farmers-managed irrigation system. The second case highlights the conflict between a powerful elite group and general villagers to control a part of forest-pasture land. The third case deals with the conflict between two groups of people to access and control a spring water source for drinking water. In all these three cases local social relationships, ownership issues, the ambiguous role of external development organisations, effects of time and space, and gender issues have greatly contributed to escalating and managing the conflict. The forth case investigates an ADB-funded irrigation project where severe conflicts erupted in the process of its planning and construction. This case shows that formal intervention, if not implemented properly, not only fails to appropriately develop and manage local natural resources but can also cause severe conflict in a community. The conflict issues in this case were analysed in terms of participation, decision making, transparency and corruption, working practice of the water users committee, the role of technology, communication and information. The fifth case presents the conflict between landowners and tenants over Guthi land to control ownership rights. The effects of socio-political change, practical applications of state rules and laws, effects of time and context, peoples' initiatives and the importance of social relationships are analysed in relation to escalation, transformation and resolution of conflict.
