Abstract
This second chapter in Part III is a deeper attempt to draw conclusions, but any solutions are without resolution. Yamuna Khadir farming households had access to different types of resources through their social networks, and this chapter is an expanded description of different types of social networks. In grouping farming households according to strong or weak social network dimensions, similarities emerge in the way they express knowledge, decisions, and livelihood strategies. Overlapping micro-meso-macro dimensions produced eight typologies of social networks that illustrate patterns of resiliency among the farmers: mimicry, isolation, community, rooted, charity, separated, dependent, and many pathways. A ninth group comprising some of the other 34, labelled ‘entrepreneurs’, are included to more fully understand community networks. The chapter ends with a discussion referencing James Scott’s concepts around everyday forms of resistance.
