“…As noted by Moore 2016 and Kostiainen 2018 the South African Martial Law in 2017 carried a first country-wide tax collection in Namibia. Magistrates together with police officers facilitated and collected tax payments in towns and rural areas from the white settlers and black Namibians (Moore 2016). It was a requirement that dogs must be licensed, and a license badge issued as depicted in Figure 3.…”

Tax revenue collection serves as the bedrock for states to avail infrastructure, essential national needs and development, encompassing critical sectors such as education, healthcare, and social welfare. This study explored and answered a question on which factors influence domestic taxpayers’ compliance in Namibia. This study tested the nine factors unpacked by Trifan et al., (2023) against 113 domestic taxpayers’ messages sent between June 2022 and December 2023 regarding tax concerns. This study was underpinned by established tax compliance explanations, including, political accountability social norms, deterrence factors, and fiscal exchange. A qualitative approach was adopted, by collecting messages from taxpayers through the Namibia Revenue Agency ‘s (NamRA) Facebook page and published Short Message Services (SMS) by the Namibian News Paper. The data were quantified to provide a better understanding as to what extent categorized taxpayers’ messages contributed to tax compliance in Namibia. The results revealed that five factors (trust in tax authority, perceived fairness, tax legislation and procedures simplicity, personal financial and economic factors, and malfunctioning of integrated tax administration (ITAS), were found to have a likelihood influence on tax complaisance in Namibia.

“…Karakul farming generated significant wealth for a group of white commercial farmers descended from German and Afrikaans speaking settlers through a combination of subsidies from the apartheid government, the exploitation of African farm labour, the appropriation of farming knowledge and land as well as a booming export market for fur (Moore, 2021;cf. Silvester, 1993).…”

Saving sheep – On extinction narratives in Namibian Swakara farming

The Namibian Swakara industry, a type of sheep farming focused on the production of lamb pelts for the fashion industry, currently faces a crisis situation. Formerly one of the most important export products from Namibia, a combination of drought, falling pelt prices and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic now threaten the survival of Swakara, the Namibian Karakul. The current crisis is articulated in extinction narratives. The potential end of Swakara farming as a way of life and a set of knowledge practices is narratively interwoven with the potential disappearance of Swakara from the Namibian landscape. Extinction narratives in the context of Swakara farming in Namibia blur the lines of human and nonhuman ways of life and their disappearance.

Dividing, Connecting, and Complicating the Hinterland: The Lower !Garib/Orange River

The focus of this chapter is on the region of the Lower !Garib/Orange River, which forms the border between Namibia and South Africa. We describe the ways in which this area was constituted as a hinterland within shifting territorial formations during the colonial, apartheid, and post-colonial periods. We develop a concept of hinterland subject to historical and spatial specificity, and beyond the binary of center and periphery. We pay attention to shifting scales and changing perspectives that engendered the conception of the region as a domain of dynamic economic, political, and cultural change in the nineteenth century; a prospecting area for mining and commercial farming in the twentieth century; or a periphery marked by structural impoverishment and environmental degradation in the twenty-first century.
