An investigation into causes of abandoned buildings a case study of Tetu and Othaya Divisions, Nyeri
Abstract
In the world economic order, third world countries
are always at a disadvantage position being producers of primary
goods whose prices are determined by the consumers who are the
developed countries. This is usually transmitted down to the farmer
in the rural areas.
This study aims to look into the relation between cash c
incomesversus incomefrom elsewhere as they affect building as a
process and as a product in the rural areas, in Kenya and namely
Nyeri District. Two typical divisions are chosen as a case study.
The first chapter is devoted to broadly introducing
the problem(s) which the research has observed or perceived.
It deals with introduction-of the prevailing situation, then
looks at the specific problem and problem area and then sets
out the strategies of tackling the study by outlining the hypothesis,
objectives, significance of the study, research methodology
and finally, defining terms used in the body of the
study that are subject to subjective interpretation.
The second chapter is solely devoted to literature
review where the researcher tries to relate whatever has been
done which is in line with the study.
Chapter three deals with data analyses where the
raw data is put in some logical order and form. Then the data
is synthesized where it is put in a form such that the reader
can grasp the impact of the findings with ease.
The last chapter (four) deals with what the researcher
has inferred from the whole study. Then in the same chapter,
the research gives recommendations which he feels can alleviate
the current problem if implemented.
