Book excerpt: Die in der medialen Öffentlichkeit vorherrschende Wahrnehmung Afrikas als endemische Krisenregion wirft Fragen auf, die sich nicht nur an Afrika, sondern auch an uns selbst richten: Ist die Wahrnehmung Afrikas als defizitärer Kontinent nicht auch das Produkt einer defizitären Wahrnehmung, die weit in die uns mit Afrika verbindende Geschichte zurückreicht? Können wir uns die mentale und wirtschaftlich-politische Abkoppelung Afrikas und die daraus folgenden Wissens- und Verstehensdefizite in einer Welt, die uns täglich die globalen Interdependenzen in allen Lebensbereichen vor Augen führt, überhaupt leisten? Und wie verträgt sich die oft zu Tage tretende Unwissenheit über Afrika mit dem Anspruch einer sich vom Eurozentrismus emanzipiert glaubenden Wissenschaft? In den Beiträgen dieses Sammelbands kommen Fachleute verschiedener Disziplinen zu Wort, die sich die Auseinandersetzung mit der vielschichtigen Realität und den Veränderungen unseres Nachbarkontinents zu ihrer Aufgabe gemacht haben, sowie namhafte Exponenten der öffentlichen Meinungsbildung. Das Themenspektrum reicht von Kunst und Literatur über Konflikt- und Wirtschaftsforschung bis hin zu Fragen des Gesundheitswesens. Ziel ist nicht die restlose Deutung aller "Rätsel" Afrikas, wohl aber – als bescheidener Schritt in diese Richtung – die Erschliessung neuer Wege des Verstehens. Dazu gehört die Information über wenig bekannte Aspekte scheinbar vertrauter Probleme und deren Einordnung in globale Zusammenhänge und lokale Perspektiven. Dazu gehört aber auch die in der Auswahl der Referentinnen und Referenten zum Ausdruck kommende Erkenntnis, dass Verstehen den Dialog mit Afrika nicht erst ermöglicht, sondern voraussetzt.

Download or read book Women and Crime in Post-Transitional South African Crime Fiction written by Sabine Binder and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-11-16 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this ground-breaking study, Sabine Binder analyses the complex ways in which female crime fictional victims, detectives and perpetrators in South African crime fiction resonate with widespread and persistent real crimes against women in post-apartheid South Africa. Drawing on a wide range of crime novels written over the last decade, Binder emphasises the genre’s feminist potential and critically maps its political work at the intersection of gender and race. Her study challenges the perception of crime fiction as a trivial genre and shows how, in South Africa at least, it provides a vibrant platform for social, cultural and ethical debates, exposing violence, misogyny and racism and shedding light on the problematics of law and justice for women faced with crime.

Download or read book German Colonialism in Africa and its Legacies written by Itohan Osayimwese and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-02-23 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Germany developed a large colonial empire over the last thirty years of the 19th century, spanning regions of the west coast of Africa to its east coast and beyond. Largely forgotten for many years, recent intense debates about Africa's cultural heritage in European museums have brought this period of African and German history back into the spotlight. German Colonialism in Africa and its Legacies brings much-needed context to these debates, exploring perspectives on the architecture, art, urbanism, and visual culture of German colonialism in Africa, and its legacies in postcolonial and present-day Namibia, Cameroon, and Germany. The first in-depth exploration of the designed and visual aspects of German colonialism, the book presents a series of essays combining formal analyses of painting, photography, performance art, buildings, and space with the discourse analysis approach associated with postcolonial theory. Covering the entire period from the build-up to colonialism in the early-19th century to the present, subjects covered range from late-19th-century German colonial paintings of African landscapes and people to German land appropriation through planning and architectural mechanisms, and from indigenous African responses to colonial architecture, to explorations of the legacies of German colonialism by contemporary artists today. This powerful and revealing collection of essays will encourage new research on this under-explored topic, and demonstrate the importance of historical research to the present, especially with regards to ongoing debates about the presence of material legacies of colonialism in Western culture, museum collections, and immigration policies.

Download or read book Contesting Visibility written by Heike Behrend and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the introduction of photography by commercial studio photographers and the colonial state in Kenya, this global medium has been intensely debated and contested among Muslims on the cosmopolitan East African coast. This book does not only explore the making, circulation, and consumption of popular photographs, but also the other side, their rejection and obliteration, an essential aspect of a medium's history that should not be neglected. It deals with various »social spaces of refusal« in the local Muslim milieu and in that of »traditional« spirit mediums in which (gendered) visibility was (and is) contested in various and creative ways. It focuses on the »aesthetics of withdrawal«: the various ways and techniques that process the photographic act as well as the photographic image to theatricalize the surface of the image in new ways by veiling, masking, and concealing. In a fragmented historical perspective, Heike Behrend seeks to complement, decenter, and counter the history of photography as it has been told by the West and to narrate another history beginning with preceding local media such as textiles and spirit possession.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 10th thematic volume of International Development Policy presents a collection of articles exploring some of the complex development challenges associated with Africa’s recent but extremely rapid pace of urbanisation that challenges still predominant but misleading images of Africa as a rural continent. Analysing urban settings through the diverse experiences and perspectives of inhabitants and stakeholders in cities across the continent, the authors consider the evolution of international development policy responses amidst the unique historical, social, economic and political contexts of Africa’s urban development. Contributors include: Carole Ammann, Claudia Baez Camargo, Claire Bénit-Gbaffou, Karen Büscher, Aba Obrumah Crentsil, Sascha Delz, Ton Dietz, Till Förster, Lucy Koechlin, Lalli Metsola, Garth Myers, George Owusu, Edgar Pieterse, Sebastian Prothmann, Warren Smit, and Florian Stoll.

Download or read book Code-switching Between Structural and Sociolinguistic Perspectives written by Gerald Stell and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-02-17 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of code-switching has been carried out from linguistic, psycholinguistic, and sociolinguistic perspectives, largely in isolation from each other. This volume attempts to unite these three research strands by placing at the centre of the enquiry the role played by social factors in the occurrence, forms, and outcomes of code-switching. The contributions in this volume are divided into three parts: “code-switching between cognition and socio-pragmatics”, “multilingual interaction and identity”, and “code-switching and social structure”. The case studies represent contact settings on five continents and feature languages with diverse linguistic affiliations. They are predictive and descriptive in their research goals and rely on experimental or naturalistic data. But they share the common goal of seeking to explain how social structures, ideologies, and identity impact on the grammatical and conversational features of code-switching and language mixing, and on the emergence of mixed languages. Given its scope, this volume is a significant addition to the empirical and theoretical foundations of the study of code-switching. It is also of relevance to the general debate on the inter-relationships between language and society.
