ASC director Ton Dietz was interviewed by journalist Max van Weezel for the Dutch radio show 'Met het oog op morgen' about the introduction of a new common currency and monetary union in East Africa (Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi).They also briefly discussed the sudden death of renowned ASC researcher Prof. Stephen Ellis.
29 July 2015
We are very sad to report that Prof. Stephen Ellis died on 29 July 2015. Stephen had leukemia, a disease that manifested itself three years ago, and was treated effectively until four weeks ago. With great admiration we have seen how he coped with his illness, and until very recently worked on a book manuscript about his most recent research, a history of Nigerian organized crime, which is virtually ready. Many obituaries have been published by colleagues all over the world.
