Download or read book British Decolonisation (1919-1984) written by Mélanie Torrent and published by Presses Universitaires de France - PUF. This book was released on 2012-12-18 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La fin des empires coloniaux et la négociation de nouvelles relations internationales sont des enjeux fondamentaux de l’histoire du XXe siècle. Cet ouvrage analyse l’histoire longue de la décolonisation britannique, depuis les rapports de force complexes au sein d’un empire agrandi par le traité de Versailles jusqu’aux négociations de 1984 pour la cession de Hong Kong. Afin d’éclairer les ressorts de la décolonisation britannique, ses moteurs, rythmes et défis, cet ouvrage s’intéressera à trois grandes problématiques : le rôle des multiples acteurs de la décolonisation (individuels et collectifs, métropolitains, coloniaux et internationaux, urbains et ruraux, anti-coloniaux, nationalistes et impérialistes) ; l’influence des conflits mondiaux, coloniaux et locaux, des transformations économiques et des mutations sociales ; et l’impact des autres décolonisations européennes sur les stratégies britanniques et indépendantistes.

Book Synopsis Religion, Colonization and Decolonization in Congo, 1885-1960. Religion, colonisation et décolonisation au Congo, 1885-1960 by : Vincent Viaene
Download or read book Religion, Colonization and Decolonization in Congo, 1885-1960. Religion, colonisation et décolonisation au Congo, 1885-1960 written by Vincent Viaene and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2020-10-30 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religion in today’s Democratic Republic of Congo has many faces: from the overflowing seminaries and Marian shrines of the Catholic Church to the Islamic brotherhoods, from the healers of Kimban-guism to the televangelism of the booming Pentecostalist churches in the great cities, from the Orthodox communities of Kasai to the ‘invisible’ Mai Mai warriors in the brousse of Kivu. During the colonial period religion was no less central to people’s lives than it is today. More surprisingly, behind the seemingly smooth facade of missions linked closely to imperial power, faith and worship were already marked by diversity and dynamism, tying the Congo into broader African and global movements. The contributions in this book provide insight into the multifaceted history of the interaction between religion and colonization. The authors outline the institutional political framework, and focus on the challenge that old and new forms of slavery entailed for the missions. The atrocities committed at the time of the Congo Free State became an existential question for young Christian communities. In the Belgian Congo after 1908, more structural forms of colonial violence remained a key issue marking religious experiences. And yet, religion also acted as a bridge. The authors emphasize the role intermediaries such as catechists or medical assistants played in the African “appropriation” of Christianity. They examine the complex interaction with indigenous religious beliefs and practices, and zoom in on the part religions played in the independence movement, as well as on their reaction to independence itself. Coming at a moment when Belgium confronts its colonial past, this volume provides a timely reassessment of religion as a key factor.

Book Synopsis Decolonisation of Higher Education in Africa by : Emnet Tadesse Woldegiorgis
Download or read book Decolonisation of Higher Education in Africa written by Emnet Tadesse Woldegiorgis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-30 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the status and importance of decolonisation and indigenous knowledge in academic research, teaching, and learning programmes and beyond. Taking practical lessons from a range of institutions in Africa, the book argues that that local and global sciences are culturally equal and capable of synergistic complementarity and then integrates the concept of hybrid science into discourses on decolonisation. The chapters argue for a cross-cultural dialogue between different epistemic traditions and the accommodation 'Indigenous' knowledge systems in higher education. Bringing together critical scholars, teaching and administrating academics from different disciplines, the chapters provide alternative conceptual outlooks and practical case-based perspectives towards decolonised study environments. This book will be of interest to researchers of decolonisation, postcolonial studies, higher education studies, political studies, African studies, and philosophy.
Book Synopsis Figures croisées d'intellectuels by :
Download or read book Figures croisées d'intellectuels written by and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2007 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tout discours visant à appréhender les intellectuels constitue un défi majoré, pour peu qu'une telle tentative se trouve conduite par les membres de ce groupe d'appartenance. Par la pluralité de ses figures, de ses trajectoires, de ses postures et de ses lieux d'actions, l'intellectuel intervient dans l'espace public, lieu de débats et condition nécessaire pour son existence et ses activités. Qu'il appartienne à l'élite ou qu'il soit qualifié de populaire, l'intellectuel est un acteur, un sujet agissant par le biais de ses productions polymorphes fondées le plus souvent sur un savoir critique. Celles-ci ont en commun de porter sur l'orientation des sociétés concernées, d'intervenir dans la vie de la Cité. Dans quelle mesure des intellectuels appartenant à différentes traditions linguistiques ou aux mêmes traditions partagent-ils des repères épistémologiques analogues ? Quelles sont les incidences de la mondialisation sur leurs productions scientifiques ? Comment se positionnent-ils dans les différents espaces d'expérimentation parfois douloureuse de la démocratie ? Etre un intellectuel dans le domaine des sciences humaines et sociales, signifie-t-il détenir, sans en avoir le monopole, un rôle prépondérant au plan éthique dans l'exigence et l'intention de vérité, dans la posture critique, la pratique du dialogue et la reconnaissance de l'autre ? S'appuyant sur des recherches empiriques effectuées en Afrique, en Europe, en Asie, le livre propose de cerner diverses figures contemporaines d'intellectuels, leur rôle aussi bien dans la jonction de leurs sociétés avec le reste du monde, que dans les constructions abouties ou non d'une sphère autonome du pouvoir politique.
Download or read book Convergences and Interferences written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2016-09-12 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does one imagine plurality? How does one find new strategies for writing diversity and polyphony? How does one read the most challenging creative and critical works of the present time? This bi-lingual volume of twelve English and eight French papers proposes to breach linguistic critical frontiers by placing careful analysis of texts from different language traditions in a multi-lingual and multi-cultural dialogue. In this collection of theoretically and politically aware close readings of contemporary cultural production, the focus of analysis rests on the multiple and complex global convergences and interferences of cultural influences. The collection foregrounds the work of innovative writers who seek to express the ungraspable presence of cultural “newness” at the same time as situating themselves in the richness of detail of local lives. This volume, most particularly, finds a balance of critical approach between the everyday attempts at negotiation and survival, and the insight brought to the reader by postcolonial, syncretic and feminist theoretical analysis.
Book Synopsis Responding to the Human Rights Deficit by : Karin Arts
Download or read book Responding to the Human Rights Deficit written by Karin Arts and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the existence of a wide range of human rights instruments and procedures, human rights violations still abound. The authors of this book address this so-called human rights deficit, and the possible responses to it, from various disciplinary angles and mostly in the context of development. They explore the reasons for the continuation of economic, social and/or political exclusion and human rights violations at large. They also present keys for redressing the human rights deficit. The role of law, and questions of universality, inclusion and exclusion are central themes in this book. The need to take up civil and political rights and economic social and cultural rights on equal footing is recognized by several of the authors, and so is that of bridging the public-private divide. Specific contributions address among others the importance of human rights training and education, the role of NGO's in a globalizing world, minorities, gender and women's rights, accountability of multinational corporations, and the problem of human trafficking.

Download or read book Frantz Fanon written by David Macey and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 692 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in Martinique, Frantz Fanon (1925-61) trained as a psychiatrist in Lyon before taking up a post in colonial Algeria. He had already experienced racism as a volunteer in the Free French Army, in which he saw combat at the end of the Second World War. In Algeria, Fanon came into contact with the Front de Libration Nationale, whose ruthless struggle for independence was met with exceptional violence from the French forces. He identified closely with the liberation movement, and his political sympathies eventually forced him out the country, whereupon he became a propagandist and ambassador for the FLN, as well as a seminal anticolonial theorist. David Macey's eloquent life of Fanon provides a comprehensive account of a complex individual's personal, intellectual and political development. It is also a richly detailed depiction of postwar French culture. Fanon is revealed as a flawed and passionate humanist deeply committed to eradicating colonialism. Now updated with new historical material, Frantz Fanon remains the definitive biography of a truly revolutionary thinker.

Book Synopsis L'imaginaire politique by : LAMIZET Bernard
Download or read book L'imaginaire politique written by LAMIZET Bernard and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parmi les domaines du politique, l'imaginaire est un champ trop souvent négligé, alors qu'il est un élément essentiel de la construction des identités politiques et de la formation des consciences politiques. Cet ouvrage propose une analyse de l'imaginaire, considéré comme un principe d'explication du monde exprimé en particulier par les mythes et les idéologies. Les différentes significations de l'imaginaire politique s'inscrivent dans des engagements et dans des pratiques de pouvoir dont les spécificités historiques et culturelles contribuent à structurer les espaces publics. Pour tenter de comprendre l'imaginaire et de lui donner du sens, L'imaginaire politique présente des méthodes d'approche fondées sur la sémiotique et sur l'analyse des discours et des images des acteurs politiques et des médias. Il expose la place qu'occupent dans le débat public et dans les pratiques politiques l'utopie, la peur et les autres formes de l'imaginaire politique.

Book Synopsis Historical Dictionary of the Central African Republic by : Richard Bradshaw
Download or read book Historical Dictionary of the Central African Republic written by Richard Bradshaw and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-05-27 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Central African Republic (CAR) came into existence on 1 December 1958 as a semi-autonomous member state of the Communauté (French Community), meaning that France still controlled its currency, defense, foreign affairs and national security. The history of the CAR can be interpreted in radically different ways. One the one hand the people of Central Africa have suffered enormously at the hands of slave traders, concessionary companies, French colonialists and African rulers, and their country remains largely ‘undeveloped.’ On the other most Central Africans have retained free use of land on which they grow crops and from which they extract numerous valuable resources. Their way of life is in the long run perhaps more sustainable than those of the ‘experts’ who come to assist them. The theme of essential continuity in the history of the CAR is as important, if not more important in the long run, than the themes of violent change, exploitation, and enduring dependence. Deep roots of continuity provide a surprising stability in the face of dramatic and often very painful change on the surface. The Historical Dictionary of the Central African Republic contains a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 1200 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the Central African Republic.
Book Synopsis Littératures Canadiennes Et Identités Postcoloniales by : Marc Maufort
Download or read book Littératures Canadiennes Et Identités Postcoloniales written by Marc Maufort and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2002 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers challenging assessments of the reconfigurations that have shaped Anglophone and Francophone Canadian literatures in the last decades of the twentieth century. Focusing on the pursuit of an ever-elusive «Canadianness» in literary texts, it documents the astonishing range of Canadian diasporic identities that have recently emerged in the Canadian literary landscape. The contributors to this volume boldly transgress the widely held critical assumptions of postcolonialism in their examination of the literary representations of contemporary Canada's many «Others». Ce volume rassemble nombre d'analyses innovatrices des reconfigurations qui ont caractérisé les littératures canadiennes anglophones et francophones durant les dernières décennies du vingtième siècle. Tout en se concentrant sur la quête de l'insaisissable «Canadianité» en littérature, l'ouvrage démontre l'étonnante diversité des identités diasporiques qui ont récemment émergé dans le paysage littéraire canadien. Les contributeurs de ce volume transgressent audacieusement les certitudes généralement acquises du postcolonialisme afin de mieux décrire les représentations littéraires des nombreux «Autres» du Canada actuel.
