In some cases, a number of interviewees were suspicious and did not trust that the information would solely be used for academic purposes. Some feared that its use could land them in some kind of trouble with the state. Also, the Swazi society is highly polarised in terms of political ideology. The society is divided between traditionalists (who do not see any need for change), progressives (who want change at all cost) and moderates (who are afraid of change).
