Notes On Africa, Technology, and the Information Age By Bruce Cosby, Ph.D. Every few hundred years in Western history there occurs a sharp transformation - Peter Drucker Europe and North America currently represent the center of the social, political and economic transformation driven by computers and telecommunications. The development of computers, first for military purposes, and later for commercial and civilian purposes, was first harnessed in the United States during the Cold War. It now affects virtually all aspects of Western society. But for Africa, and many other developing nations, it is a different situation. The situation in Africa can be gleaned by briefly exploring the history of importation of telecommunications during colonialism and by locating the teledensity ( main telephone lines per 100) throughout the continent. Telecommunication systems were introduced in Africa (with few exceptions, like Ethiopia) by the European nations as a mechanism of control and governance. ( This is not unlike the "command and control" purpose of the Internet when it was first invented by the United States military.) Telecommunication systems were mainly limited to "communications between the capitol and its administration centers within Africa." The links that were extended beyond the administrative capitol were primarily used to solidify control and crush resistance. Mansure M. Nuruddin explains, for example, how telecommunication systems were used militarily by the British in Ghana against the Ashantis in the Yaa Assantewa War:

    Before the coming of the white man, land was the most important possession in Kenya - " . . . the land is the source of all livelihood" (Oginga Odinga, former Kenyan vice president). Land meant freedom, and land became the focal point of the struggle between white settlers and indigenous Africans. Kenya, the second program in the three-part series No Easy Walk, traces the sociopolitical history of that East African nation from the arrival of the first colonialists in the late 19th century through independence in 1963. While not as vibrant as the other programs, Ethiopia and Zimbabwe, the production nevertheless succeeds at portraying the evolution of resistance from peaceful protest to armed confrontation.

    Kenya
    (A presentation at an international conference on Land Tenure in the Developing World with focus on Southern Africa, held at the University of Cape Town, Republic of South Africa, January 27 - 29, 1998) A. INTRODUCTION The last two decades have witnessed an unprecedented pre-occupation with land policy development (LPD) in Eastern and Southern Africa. All the countries of this region with the exception of Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo (former Zaire) have been engaged, at various levels of detail, in the evaluation or re-evaluation of their land policies, laws and production structures and infrastructure (Okoth-Ogendo, 1993). Other countries of Sub-Saharan Africa have also gone (or about to go) through the process of LPD. These include Senegal, Niger, The Gambia, Mali, Eritrea and Ethiopia, to mention but the most obvious ones (OSS, 1997). In some of these countries such as Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda, South Africa, and Zimbabwe, LFD has been treated as so important an issue that it has exploded onto the arena of constitution-making. What is the explanation for all this frenzy? What is it that has happened that makes LPD so central to economic, political and social discourse? What are the real drivers behind this pre-occupation? What mechanisms and process have been used to initiate and administer LPD in specific country contexts? And what outcomes have we seen, or should we expect, that would make the exercise worthwhile for prospective beneficiaries? This paper offers preliminary answers to these question and attempts to sketch out the main paradigm about LPD that appears to have emerged in the region.

    Kar-hu ka-ve-lee! Right? Yes, very well pronounced! - For someone whose language is spoken by just five million people the situation is unexpected, unique and also flattering.
    Another recollection: I step off the train at the station of the capital Saransk. I soon spot my hosts, smiling cheerfully and waving bunches of flowers. When we leave the station I trip over the carcass of a big black dog, which has obviously been lying there for days without anyone taking the trouble to remove it. So it is here too - the decay and negligence of Soviet life.
    These recollections are flashes of the everyday life I briefly met in the Mordvinian Republic. But a visitor's overriding impression is of surprise and admiration: even under circumstances like these people still have the strength to believe in a better future and to work for it. Gratifyingly many seem to have such strength.

    Brief Reflections on Clitorodectomy
    by Ifeyinwa Iweriebor
    Black Women in Publishing, New York
    There has in recent times been a hue and cry about the practice of genital surgery on women in Africa. The prevailing perspective in America has been absolute condemnation. What is bothersome is not so much that people have a negative opinion of the practice, but that the issue is misrepresented as a form of child abuse or a tool of gender oppression. The language and tone of the outcry in most cases reflects a total lack of respect for the culture of other peoples. Even more bothersome is the false portrayal: the falsification of statistics and a successful demonization of the practitioners. There may be an on-going debate about the effects or necessity for the procedure, but the essential truth is that the practitioners do not perform genital surgery on their girls, (nor on their sons for that matter) to oppress them or do them any harm. For them the procedure is carried out for the noblest of reasons, the best of intentions and in good faith. The fact that it can be performed in public in the countries that permit it demonstrates that the practitioners do not consider it dirty laundry or a dark hidden secret.

    Ethnicity in Africa and the Principles of Solving

    30/1, Spiridonovka str., 103001 Moscow
    Fax: 7 (095) 202 07 86
    Paper presented at the
    Fourth International Conference of the Ethnic Studies Network (Moving Towards Pluralism) Moscow, Russia, 8-11 June 1999
    The paper is based on the result of the field research and observations in twenty one African countries. Ethnicity continues to play a significant role in various spheres of life in African states, manly in politics; however, during the past decade that role, as is in other parts of the world, has increased. That was due to a number of factors, viz. unsettled economic problems, the growing social tension, political instability, prolonged regional conflicts, the ever engraving complications in interethnic relations. Adding to that is the growing significance of traditional ethno-cultural values and, as a consequence of that, the growth of ethnic consciousness, the desire to preserve one's culture, languages etc. If it is not always clear for some scholars and practising figures what concretely must be done for resolving various aspects of the nationalities problems, but it is quite clear for them on the basis of the recent negative experience in a number of countries what must not be done. That is the reason why theoretical and practical interest to the issue of self-determination of peoples, forms of administrative and territorial organisation, various forms of autonomy, including the cultural ones, increased so much during the past years.

    Kenya is still the primary focus of all adventure travel in Africa. It is one of the finestand undoubtedly the most famoussafari destination in the world. Safari , however, is by no means the only reason to visit Kenya, for the attractions of its rich culture and diverse environments are considerable.
    Kenya is situated right along the equator, on the eastern coast of the African continent. Its coastal region is on the southeast, and to the east lies Somalia. Ethiopia is to the north, the Sudan to the northwest, and Uganda directly to the west. The southwestern border of the country is marked by Lake Victoria, and southward lies Tanzania. Kenya's geography is marvelously varied. While much of northeastern Kenya is a flat, bush-covered plain, the remainder of the country encompasses pristine beaches, scenic highlands and lake regions, the Great Rift Valley, and the magnificent Mount Kenya.
    Although Kenya's varied environments experience a wide variety of climate conditions, the temperature remains comfortably warm year-round. Much of Kenya experiences heavy rainfall from March through May and, to a lesser extent, from October through December. The best time for most
