Their reputation can be attributed to their considerable wealth, derived in turn from royalties earned from platinum mining and direct investment in mining ventures. The Bafokeng nation as they call themselves today, are administered by the Royal Bafokeng Administration, headed by the current King, Leruo Molotlegi. Employing written, oral and archaeological sources, this book traces the emergence of the Bafokeng, their settlement in the western highveld, and their consolidation under various capable leaders, in particular Kgosi Mokgatle Thethe, during the period of white (Boer and later British) rule, from the 1830s to the early C20th. It examines their relationship with missionaries, and the means by which they acquired land, which was later to provide the foundation for material prosperity. It traces the problems and disputes resulting from the concentration of power in the hands of a white minority, and from competition among the Bafokeng themselves. The book also describes how the Bafokeng leadership took on the mining industry, in league with the Bophuthatswana homeland, to ensure a fair share of royalties from minerals located in the land they controlled and owned. It also points to some of the demands now facing the Bafokeng SN - 1-7700-9825-9 AV - AFRIKA 48004 Y2 - 2015/09/02/ M3 - 382936248 ER - TY - ADVS ID - 530 T1 - 1994 : the bloody miracle A1 - Rickards,Meg A1 - Haitsma,Bert A1 - Egan,Paul A1 - Kani,John Y1 - 2014/// N1 - Engels gesproken, Engels ondertiteld KW - 1994 KW - documentary films (form) KW - political change KW - political history KW - political violence KW - South Africa KW - videos (form) RP - NOT IN FILE CY - [Place of publication not identified] PB - Boondogle Films U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available N2 - "As South Africa prepares to celebrate its 20th anniversary of the advent of democracy in 1994, it's hard to believe the 'Mandela miracle' nearly didn't happen. In an orgy of countrywide violence, some were intent on derailing the first free elections. Now, for the first time, those responsible for countless deaths and widespread mayhem explain how they nearly brought South Africa to its knees. 1994 The Bloody Miracle is a chilling look at what these hard men did to thwart democracy, but how they have now made an uneasy peace with the 'Rainbow Nation' in their own different ways."--Sabido Productions website As South Africa prepares to celebrate its 20th anniversary of the advent of democracy in 1994, it's hard to believe the 'Mandela miracle' nearly didnt happen. In an orgy of countrywide violence, some were intent on derailing the first free elections. The film reveals white right wing plans for a military coup, and uncovers a plot to kidnap Mandela and the new leaders-in-waiting and imprison them in neighbouring Angola. Meanwhile the Zulu organisation, Inkatha, was locked in an ever more violent power struggle with Mandela's ANC. In certain areas, this feud turned to fullscale civil war. The filmmakers speak with eyewitnesses, survivors of massacres and bombings, who still bare the physical and emotional scars of that time. In an exclusive interview behind bars, hit squad commander Eugene de Kock lays bare the role of the Apartheid State in undermining the transition, and the complicity of those in the highest echelons of power. In rare interviews, former President F.W. De Klerk and current President Jacob Zuma answer questions about the extent of this State complicity.

The discussion centres on how people receive and understand these films together with the digital video technology that has facilitated their recent success. Indeed, Christian films have become so important in this part of Benin that the question needs to be raised whether Christianity is shifting from a religion of the book towards a religion of film. The theoretical starting point is semiotics, a theory that has been foundational not only for film, media and media reception studies, but more recently also for the study of materiality. This thesis' main theoretical contribution is a critique of semiotics, arguing that this theory, which has been foundational to Western science since Aristotle, is in fact too limiting. Semiotics, even in its Peircean orientation, cannot sufficiently explain how people in the Community of Cobly understand shrines, film and media more generally, both through their material manifestations and interactively in terms of communication. Instead, a process called "presencing", which goes beyond semiotics, can explain better people's understanding of shrines and media.

However, various conservation projects since the turn of the century have now begun to make many of these films available to critics and audiences. This collection of essays, introduced by editors Lizelle Bisschoff and David Murphy, recovers over 30 'lost' African classic films from 1920-2000 in order to provide a more complex genealogy and begin to trace new histories of African filmmaking: from 1920s Egyptian melodramas through lost gems from apartheid South Africa to neglected works by great Francophone directors. The book is divided into seven parts: I. Lost histories 1924-1969; II. North Africa; III. South Africa; IV. Francophone Africa; V. Anglophone Africa; VI. Lusophone Africa; VII. East Africa.

VL - 23 IS - 3 U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The growth of the African Internet, and services related to the Internet, has been rapid over the last decade. Following this market expansion, a variety of service providers have started to provide access. A fast-growing market puts pressure on the providers to deliver services first and only then seek to secure the networks. Over time, industrialised nations have become more able to detect and trace cyber attacks against their networks. These tracking features are constantly developing and the precision in determining the origin of an attack is increasing. A state-sponsored cyber attacker, such as intelligence agencies and electronic warfare units, will seek to avoid detection, especially when the attacks are politically sensitive intelligence-gathering and intrusion forays into foreign states' networks. One way for the attacker to create a path that links the attacks and the originating country is by actions through a proxy. The less technologically mature developing nations offer an opportunity for cyber aggression due to their lower level of security under the quick expansion of the Internet-based market. Developing countries could be used as proxies, without their knowledge and consent, through the unauthorised usage of these countries' information systems in an attempt to attack a third country by a state-sponsored offensive cyber operation. If the purpose of the cyber attack is to destabilise a targeted society and the attack succeeds, the used proxies are likely to face consequences in their relations with foreign countries, even if the proxy was unaware of the covert activity.

VL - 23 IS - 3 U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The Egyptian military's unconstitutional removal of President Mohamed Morsi has reignited a debate regarding the theory of the 'democratic coup'. Though coups are almost invariably condemned, many political observers and a few scholars have recently argued that coups can act as catalysts for democratisation. This paper empirically assesses the democratic coup hypothesis for Africa. Multivariate analyses from 1952 to 2012 suggest that coups statistically improve a country's democratisation prospects. Extensions of the model show that coups appear to be likely precursors for democratisation in staunchly authoritarian regimes and have become less likely to end democracy over time, and that their positive influence has strengthened since the end of the Cold War. As of 2012, countries that have experienced a recent coup are expected to be four times more likely to witness a democratic transition than those that have remained coup-free. Notes, ref., sum.

Through the functions of democratisation, socialisation and the rebuilding of communities, the various bottom-up peacebuilding initiatives under the CCSF framework rebuilt broken relationships, provided spaces of encounter between victims and perpetrators, and bridged the paradoxical values of mercy, justice, truth and peace in a context of deep political polarisation. Although the various peacebuilding activities were scattered and sporadic, they do provide a basis for nationwide replication under a ZANU-PF dominated government. The new 2013 constitution provides institutional opportunities for the formulation of a broader national framework for peacebuilding that synergises these efforts by civil society and a politically willing state.

VL - 13 IS - 4 U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Constitution-building is a delicate and intricate process which requires ample reflection and careful choices. African constitution-builders and politicians have since the beginning of the 1990s embarked on a process of constitutional reforms. A careful examination of the developments of the last two decades shows that the process has almost provoked never-ending contagion of making, unmaking and remaking of constitutions. This paper attempts to provide an overview of the changes that have been taking place. Some of the issues relating to the durability of national constitutions and theoretical foundations for constitutional change are discussed. The paper also considers some of the possible implications of the endless processes of making, unmaking and remaking constitutions. The critical question it tries to grapple with is how this unending process of constitution-building in Africa can be controlled in a manner that will ensure peace, political stability and provide a legitimate foundation for entrenching a firm culture of constitutionalism. In advocating for an entrenched permanent constitutional review commission to check against frequent and arbitrary constitutional changes, the paper argues that this is the best way for constitutional legitimacy to be sustained throughout the life of a constitution.

VL - 26 IS - 3 U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This special section includes a series of conversations in relation to and with the South African film 'Otelo Burning' (2011). This Zulu-language film with English subtitles presents young black men searching for freedom through surfing in late apartheid South Africa. Articles by Meg Samuelson and Glen Thompson place the film in dialogue with literary and photographic framings of its beach setting, a cultural history of surfing in South Africa that repeatedly configures itself in relation to Zulu identity, histories of exclusion in the form of beach apartheid, and surfing fiction and film from California and Australia. Three responses - by Bhekizizwe Peterson, Litheko Modisane and David Johnson - spotlight key features of the film, including its problematic presentation of black township life, the limitations and expansive possibilities of its renderings of personal and political freedom, and its partial allusions to the Shakespearian tragedy of 'Othello'. An interview with director-producer Sara Blecher and actor-waterman Sihle Xaba elaborates on the making and meanings of the film, with particular attention to the collaborative process that informs it.

It challenges distortions and platitudes due to a previous lack of attention for Africa's enormous diversity and a complex and varied historical involvement with a rich assortment of drugs.

At the frontier of unprecedented social change, Miranda, Mpumi, Martin and Karabo are part of the first generation of black South Africans to rise from poverty and join the country's middle class. They delicately balance the traditional views of their childhood with the western consumerism that rules their professional lives, selecting and discarding elements from each world to forge a new legacy for their descendants. The gentle motif of the wind throughout the film reminds us that the past is always carried with us. Tension builds as the characters grapple to find peace with their personal success amidst huge inequalities within the country, and even within their own families. The excitement of heralding a new era lingers, bittersweet. Their stories are interwoven with images of the new Johannesburg.

VL - 23 IS - 3 U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This article interrogates the continuing relevance of the contractarian governance paradigm to resource governance and the impact of exploitation on the local population and environment in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Zimbabwe and Ghana. It highlights the susceptibilities of their governance processes, particularly the roles of the elites of the host communities, the multinational corporations, and the governing authorities in appropriating resources for their personal interests, resulting in tensions and conflicts. This scenario is borne out of inept leadership, as well as the defective and compromised administrative mechanisms operational in these countries. In view of this, the article underscores the need for a 'new governance management paradigm' anchored on a communitarian framework, which incorporates all stakeholders, to guarantee sustainable peace and prosperity, particularly in conflict zones. The article therefore concludes that achieving a nexus between forestry, mining activities and economic development in these countries will require a restructuring of the existing governance mechanisms; and advocates for a new governance model capable of curbing the excesses of local and foreign hegemony, including a total overhaul of the seemingly compromised supervising authority.

Although the country has experienced chronic instability since independence from France in 1960, it has never before descended into the current near-genocidal situation, which has pitted Muslims against Christians. The CAR has been embroiled in conflict since March 2013, with unprecedented security and humanitarian consequences. In December 2013, the United Nations representative for the first time described the situation as an alarming security threat and evoked the likelihood of genocide and humanitarian disaster if nothing is done.

L'analyse combin‚e du droit communautaire et de sa pratique par la CCJA permet de r‚aliser que l'ind‚pendance de cette Cour n‚cessite d'ˆtre affermie. Pour ce faire, il serait judicieux de r‚am‚nager le statut du personnel judiciaire de la CCJA et de r‚organiser la justice communautaire. Une double action faciliterait le r‚am‚nagement du statut du personnel judiciaire de la CCJA. D'une part, il est question pour le l‚gislateur africain d'adopter des dispositions communautaires ayant pour but de renforcer la comp‚tence des juges communautaires et de mettre fin au pouvoir du pr‚sident de la CCJA sur le greffier en chef de ladite Cour. D'autre part, il semble n‚cessaire que le l‚gislateur africain consacre des incompatibilit‚s tendant … empˆcher un juge de la CCJA de statuer dŠs lors qu'il existe un lien ‚troit de famille entre un justiciable et lui. Il pourrait compl‚ter cette mesure par la cons‚cration de l'interdiction totale mais temporaire d'exercice du commerce par les juges communautaires. Notes, r‚f., r‚s en fran‡ais et en anglais.

Y1 - 2014/// KW - Africa KW - commercial law KW - international law KW - law of contract KW - OHADA RP - NOT IN FILE SP - 5 EP - 57 U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Le contrat de commerce international (CCI) consiste souvent en un contrat successif de longue dur‚e. Suivant son objet, le CCI peut ainsi s'‚tendre, pour son ex‚cution, sur de nombreuses ann‚es ou mˆme porter sur une p‚riode illimit‚e. Les al‚as auxquels s'exposent les CCI de longue dur‚e sont multiples et bien connus: crises politiques, instabilit‚ ‚conomique, d‚terioration des conditions du march‚, fluctuations mon‚taires, ‚volution des m‚thodes de production et de transformation. Lorsque survient l'un d'eux, l'‚quilibre de la transaction peut ˆtre totalement boulevers‚, d'o— peut r‚sulter la mise en p‚ril de la poursuite du contrat. Le problŠme se pose alors de savoir comment allier le principe 'pacta sunt servanda' et l'adaptation du contrat aux circonstances nouvelles. L'auteur expose que, d'une part, l'adaptation dirig‚e est g‚n‚ralement admise dans le droit des contrats en g‚n‚ral et a pu de ce fait acqu‚rir un statut de principe g‚n‚ral, et d'autre part, que cette tendence n'en demeure pas moins largement critiquable. La pression de l'int‚gration juridique europ‚enne pour ce qui concerne les droits fran‡ais, belge et luxembourgeois, les le‡ons qui se d‚gagent de l'‚volution du droit des affaires dans le monde, en ce qui concerne les pays subsahariens qui n'admettent pas encore l'impr‚vision, font penser que le droit des contrats est sur le point de passer … un alignement universel sur ce point. L'avant-projet d'Acte uniforme OHADA (Organisation pour l'Harmonisation en Afrique du Droit des Affaires) sur le droit des contrats propose d‚j… l'adaptation dirig‚e du contrat aux circonstances. On peut d'ailleurs se demander si l'adaptation dirig‚e n'a pas d‚j… fait son entr‚e dans le droit OHADA avec l'article 267 de l'Acte uniforme relatif au droit commercial g‚n‚ral (AUDCG) qui s'applique … la vente.

Selon les auteurs, une attention particuliŠre devrait ˆtre port‚e aux soci‚t‚s de taille modeste. Les structures qui ont ‚t‚ mises en place pour faciliter la cr‚ation d'entreprises devraient venir en appui des soci‚t‚s non seulement … la cr‚ation mais ‚galement au cours de la vie sociale pour leur permettre de mieux se conformer au droit des soci‚t‚s, et ce … des co–ts et d‚lais raisonnables.

Ces relations, assez complexes, ont donn‚ naissance depuis des ann‚es … une analyse qui n'est ni celle des conflits, ni celles de la compl‚mentarit‚, mais … celle que Diallo qualifie de 'l'envers et l'endroit d'une mˆme r‚alit‚ ' … propos des relations agriculture/‚levage en C“te-d'Ivoire (Diallo, 2000, p. 89). Ce ph‚nomŠne de concurrence/compl‚mentarit‚ est perceptible dans de nombreux villages du Delta int‚rieur du Niger, qui reflŠtent un long processus d'action conjointe entre les droits de d‚cider, de g‚rer et de n‚gocier avec ces voisins, et le renouvellement de ces droits dans un contexte institutionnel d‚fini par le Code Domanial et Foncier (CDF, 2000) et la Charte Pastorale (CP, 2001). Caract‚ris‚es par un soubassement social assez profond issu du partage de l'espace deltaique au XIXe siŠcle, quelles donn‚es privil‚gier dans les interactions agriculture/‚levage? L… r‚side toute la complexit‚ d'une telle analyse dans un espace aux ressources fluctuantes au cours d'une mˆme ann‚e, et d'une ann‚e … l'autre. Cette contribution, … partir des observations directes et des enquˆtes de terrain dans le Delta int‚rieur du Niger (Mali), aborde les dynamiques dans le partage de l'espace et des recompositions fonciŠres en se focalisant sur les implications des d‚coupages administratifs sur le d‚veloppement local.

It then examines the global governance responses by the major multilateral organizations of the World Bank and the World Trade Organization and the newer informal, flexible, and democratically oriented ones of the Group of Eight. It also addresses the compounding health challenge created by climate change to assess both its intensifying impact on Africa and how all international institutions have largely failed to link climate and health in their governance response. It concludes with several recommendations about the innovative ideas and institutions that offer a way to closing the great global governance gaps and thus improving Africans health and that of citizens beyond.

VL - 23 IS - 3 U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This paper argues that the crisis of electoral democracy in Zimbabwe and Cote d'Ivoire is a result of underlying structural and institutional deficiencies within national and regional multinational institutions. It assesses the extent to which they have been 'enablers' or 'spoilers' of electoral-based transitions to democracy. Yet it avoids generalisations of the security sector's involvement in political transitions. In terms of structure, the paper is divided into four sections. Section one will briefly discuss the theoretical perspectives of the election-democracy trajectory. It argues that although elections are a major variable for democracy, unless the 'ecology of elections' is conducive, elections may not be an instrument of transition to democracy. The second section analyses the militarisation of politics and the role of the security sector in aiding or stalling democratisation. Section three will assess the role of regional organisations such as the Southern African Development Community, Economic Community of West African States and the African Union in electoral-based political transitions in Africa. Lastly, the paper will discuss how the security sector and multinational African institutions can aid political transitions to democracy in troubled African countries. Notes, ref., sum.

VL - 23 IS - 3 U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This article examines the recruitment and transportation of internally trafficked children from Benue State in the north-central geo-political zone of Nigeria to Oyo State in the south-western zone of Nigeria. The study is essentially qualitative: with the aid of the snowball sampling technique, in-depth interviews (IDIs) were conducted with drivers, employers and trafficking agents in two recipient communities in Ibadan. The findings show that human rights abuses manifest at the recruitment, transportation and destination phases. The human rights abuses include the recruitment of underage children for domestic work outside their immediate family environments; transportation under inhumane conditions; restriction of movement at traffickers' 'warehouses'; non-disclosure of amount payable for the services of domestic servants by agents/traffickers; exclusion of domestic servants in wage negotiations; and violence by employers. In view of these, there is a need for the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons to strengthen its internal trafficking campaign. Notes, ref., sum.

VL - 13 IS - 4 U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Patronage and financial corruption are rife in the contemporary Nigerian state and have gained widespread social acceptance, indicating a belief that it is legitimate to appropriate state resources for personal gain. In this paper the author concentrates on the historical antecedents of this state of affairs. Focusing on the Igbo-speaking south-east of the country, he argues that an understanding of contemporary Nigeria must be based on a syncretic analysis: that is, a combination of influences from pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial eras. Despite this, the colonial era should not be downplayed as an influence, as some have sought to argue. In particular, he argues that the imposition of warrant chiefs in previously acephalous communities with participatory governance engendered a belief that government did not belong to local people.

La question de la nationalit‚ ne se pose pas pour la CCEG et pour le Conseil des ministres. En revanche, la question est importante pour la r‚partition des diff‚rents postes de responsabilit‚ au sein des autres institutions de l'OHADA et dans la gestion administrative du contentieux au niveau communautaire. Sur les siŠges des institutions, le Cameroun, la C“te d'Ivoire et le B‚nin se sont vu attribuer respectivement le secr‚tariat permanent, la CCJA et l'ERSUMA.

Primary data were collected from a sample of 400 randomly selected small- and medium-scale entrepreneurs, and two structured questionnaires were used. The study found that many of the participants indicated similar risk-taking profiles. No significant differences in the mean scores between males and females in the financial and social domains of risk-taking perceptions were found. There was, however, a significant difference with regard to risk-taking perceptions in the ethical domain, health and safety issues, and recreational matters. There was also a difference in business performance perceptions. The study suggests that there is no correlation between actual business performance and risk-taking in entrepreneurs: risk-taking in different genders cannot serve as an indicator of success.

En droit OHADA (Organisation pour l'Harmonisation en Afrique du Droit des Affaires) il y a soci‚t‚ cr‚‚e de fait lorsque des personnes se comportent en fait comme des associ‚s, sans avoir constitu‚ entre elles un tel groupement. La soci‚t‚ de fait correspond en revanche … trois cas de figure: 1. lorsque celle qui a ‚t‚ constitu‚e comporte un vice de formation remettant en cause sa validit‚, et qui mŠne … son annulation; 2. le cas o— la forme sociale retenue par les associ‚s n'est pas reconnue par le droit OHADA; et 3. la constitution de la soci‚t‚ n'a pas donn‚ lieu … l'‚tablissement d'un ‚crit. Il r‚sulte de cette classification qu'en droit OHADA, le critŠre de distinction entre la soci‚t‚ cr‚‚e de fait et la soci‚t‚ de fait est finalement la volont‚ de s'associer. En effet, dans les trois hypothŠses de soci‚t‚ de fait, la volont‚ des int‚ress‚s de se mettre en soci‚t‚ est bel et bien exprim‚e. Seulement, certaines exigences l‚gales ne sont pas satisfaites et empˆchent par cons‚quent l'aboutissement de leur projet. On est donc en pr‚sence d'une soci‚t‚ d‚g‚n‚r‚e ou avort‚e. La r‚vision de l'Acte uniforme a ‚galement permis d'uniformiser le r‚gime juridique des deux types de soci‚t‚. Le nouvel article 868 pr‚voit que lorsque l'existence d'une soci‚t‚ cr‚‚e de fait ou d'une soci‚t‚ de fait est reconnue, les rŠgles de la soci‚t‚ en nom collectif sont applicables aux associ‚s.

VL - 73 IS - 2 U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Nelson Mandela has a parallel life in North American self-help literature that cannot be corrected or amended. Early public perceptions of Mandelas life were shaped by several conventional biographies that bore all the usual characteristics of this genre of non-fiction life writing; a claim to represent historical truth, a promise of fidelity to available evidence, proper contextualization of the life of the subject. But a parallel set of perceptions emerged later in a peculiar genre of figurative biography that was modelled after North American self-help literature. This large and rapidly growing Mandelathemed self-help literature references his life story in a more selective and strategic way by extracting anecdotes and quotations and reproducing them as techniques for self-improvement and self-actualisation. Together these strands of writing have produced the unusual phenomenon visible in popular perceptions of Mandela today; the struggle hero who is simultaneously the spiritual warrior of self-help.

U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available T3 - REPOA special paper ; 12/1 N2 - This study examines the governance of the capitation grant in 48 primary schools in six local councils of Tanzania, a recurrent expenditure mechanism introduced to compensate for the abolition of school fees in public schools in 2002. The study focuses on whether civic engagement (demand-side) and/or school autonomy (supply-side) variables affect the governance of this grant at the school level. The aspects of governance studied are effectiveness, rule of law, accountability and participation. The research applied quantitative and qualitative methods; a questionnaire using a five-point Likert scale was administered to a total of 144 respondents complemented by data drawn from focus group discussions and key informant interviews involving an additional 130 participants. Statistical evidence indicates that effectiveness is the most observed aspect of the governance of the capitation grant in the schools surveyed, while the rule of law is the least observed aspect of governance. Both civic engagement and school autonomy variables were found to be associated with the governance of the capitation grant in schools. In particular, results from a multiple regression analysis show that the exercise of agency by parents, for example, through attending meetings and openly discussing issues of community importance, is a significant predictor of better governance of the capitation grant in schools.The assessment suggests that strengthening the governance of funds disbursed at the school level is critically important in improving the quality of primary education sub-sector in Tanzania. Based on the evidence gathered the study recommends the collaboration of local government authorities with civil society organisations (CSOs) to strengthen the capacity of school committees; the introduction of school community dialogues for the head teachers and school committee chairpersons on a quarterly basis to submit school financial reports; and the implementation of political mobilisation projects by CSOs to raise awareness among parents and communities of their rights and responsibilities in monitoring public service delivery SN - 978-9987-61566-7 AV - Elektronisch document Y2 - 2015/09/02/ M3 - 387217444 L3 - http://www.repoa.or.tz/documents/SP_12-1_.pdf ER - TY - BOOK ID - 581 T1 - The nature of christianity in Northern Tanzania : environmental and social change 1890-1916 A1 - Munson,Robert B.

VL - 13 IS - 4 U2 - w7 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Africa's struggle against mass poverty and deprivation is examined using a constitutional political economy approach. It is argued that the failure of many African countries to deal effectively with poverty is due to the fact that since independence, these countries have not been able to engage in democratic constitution making to provide themselves with institutional arrangements that guarantee the rule of law. Such institutions must adequately constrain civil servants and political elites, enhance peaceful coexistence, and provide an enabling environment for the creation of wealth. The process to reconstruct and reconstitute African states has been on going since decolonization. The Arab awakening, which began in North Africa, and the pro-democracy demonstrations of the mid-1980s and early-1990s, are a continuation of this effort to secure the laws and institutions that enhance the creation of wealth and provide an enabling environment for the eventual eradication of poverty. Unless the African countries provide themselves with institutional arrangements that guarantee the rule of law, poverty will remain pervasive. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

The coup plunged the country into violence and chaos, and there has been an uneasy quest for peace ever since. This article explains why the leader of the rebellion lost control over his troops and was finally pushed by regional actors to leave power. The article concludes that the S‚l‚ka rebellion was already fragile and, together with the poor leadership demonstrated by the coalition leader, the rebellion was unable to hold on to power.

By evoking the essential social values and norms of the Akan culture in West Africa the analysis posits that the so-called East Asian values as codified by Confucius are actually universal principles. The essay examines how the principles of filial piety and ancestor worship play out in the social practices of the Asante people (of the Akan ethnic group) and the Confucian communities, and suggests that a proper comparative examination of these practices across cultures would show that some cultural groups outside the East Asian zone might turn out to be more 'Confucian' than some of the East Asian countries.

It examines the true extent and complex nature of joblessness among the youth in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and offers a set of evidence-based policy choices that could be expected to contribute to addressing the problem in the short- and long-run. Part I reviews the existing literature on youth unemployment and underemployment in Sub-Saharan Africa from microeconomic and macroeconomic perspectives, while Part II presents detailed country studies of Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya and South Africa. The book shows that the essence of joblessness in SSA has to do with low productivity and low employability (human capital). Solutions will require a holistic approach combining macroeconomic strategies, interventions to raise productivity and quality of work, public health (especially during early childhood), and education, in addition to conventional labour market measures. Areas where further research is promising are indicated.
