Dans les langues bantoues du Gabon, tons lexicaux flottants et tons intonatifs permettent d’expliquer trois phénomènes tonals que nous avons voulu passer en revue dans cet article. Dorénavant, il est donné de croire, avec l’élargissement du domaine d’observation des tons intonatifs aux groupes B10, B20 et B30, qu’un certain nombre de problèmes tonals considérés hier encore comme insolubles ou relevant de types ou de cas tonals, trouvent des solutions ou des analyses satisfaisantes. Déjà, la découverte des tons intonatifs en myènènkomi (B11e) et en tsogo (B31) permet aujourd’hui de proposer une description pour le moins correcte de la tonalité de ces deux langues.

Cet article fait l'inventaire des travaux récents sur les langues du Gabon. Il prend en compte les publications ou les monographies qui sont parues depuis les années 84-85. Cette bibliographie constitue ainsi une mise à jour de la contribution de Hombert et Mortier (1984), qui recense de son côté toutes les références bibliographiques qui ont été publiées avant cette même période.
La réglementation relative aux armes à feu, munitions, explosifs et poudrières en Afrique occidentale française fait l’objet de textes si nombreux et si divers qu’il devient très difficile au chercheur d’en suivre les prescriptions avec toute la précision désirable. Aussi, avons nous eu l’idée de réunir, dans un but d’utilité générale, les références des différents conventions, décrets, arrêtés, décisions, circulaires et actes et qui se rapportent à cette question. Cependant, nous avons estimé préférable de regrouper les textes en un travail conçu d’après un plan d’ensemble défini et logique de manière à éviter au lecteur de longues recherches. Le tableau ci-dessous comporte trois rubriques. Dans la première rubrique, nous mettons la nature, le n° s’il y a lieu et la date du texte. Dans la deuxième rubrique, nous indiquons la source et s’il s’agit d’une source archivistique, nous ne mettons que le code. L’intitulé de chacun des codes se trouve dans la partie « Source et Bibliographie » qui suit le tableau. Celle-ci est constituée de l’ensemble des sources portant sur le contrôle de la circulation des armes à feu et de leurs munitions en Afrique occidentale française : 1834-1958. Dans la troisième rubrique du tableau, nous signalons les objets du texte et dans la quatrième, nous mettons les territoires où était appliqués le document.

La Sénégambie
(1898)
Four MA dissertations and 222 BA research essays are listed alphabetically, and indexed by reference number under three subject categories-geographical area (by district, etc.), ethnic group, and a general subject index of 42 headings. All but 31 of the 226 alphabetical entries contain research solely on Botswana: the other countries being South Africa (12 entries), Zimbabwe (11), Namibia (6), Angola and Zambia (1 each). The most researched district of Botswana is Central (54 entries), followed by Kgatleng and Kweneng (25 each), North-East (24), South-East (16), Southern (9), Ngamiland (6), Chobe and Ghanzi (3 each), and Kgalagadi (2). The subject index of 29 ethnic groups ranges from Afrikaners (2 entries) and Amandebele (2) through Babirwa (7), Bakalanga (24), Bakgatla (27), Bakhalagari (4), Bakwena (21), Bangwato (19), Basarwa (5), and Batlharo (1), to Indians (3) and Ovambanderu (2). The general subject index ranges from Administration (29 entries), Agriculture (18), and Archaeology (21), through Biography (28), Cattle (7), Chieftainship (27), Class formation (7), Councils (7), Economic development (23), Education (14), and Heritage management (7), to Labour and labour migration (7), Medicine (4), Nationalism (13), Religion (15), Serfdom, servitude and slavery (7), Settlement history (19), Trade and commerce (13), Trade unions (6), and Urbanization (15). With the notable exception of one MA dissertation, there is a lack of cultural studies which may partly be attributed to research being done instead under the aegis of other departments in the Faculty of Humanities.
Jan Snyman papers
(2007)
Biographical history and context: Professor Jan Snyman spent most of his life researching the lesser known and marginalised San languages of Botswana and South West Africa (now Namibia). Together with O. Kohler, E. Westphal and A. Traill, he pioneered linguistic studies on these endangered languages of Africa. He contributed significantly in collection of the data that helped classify and understand the grammar of San languages. Snyman also wrote several grammars in the form of monographs and notes on these languages. By the time he died, in 2002, a draft for the Tshwaa and Kua languages had been completed. Content: Linguistic, phonetics and orthography research materials including fonts for phonetic languages. Covering dates: 1967-2000
Rwanda entered independence following a transition marked by violent internecine conflict. The conflict was stoked by the departing colonial rulers as they sought to place control of the levers of state in the hands of an ethnic majority, which they had hitherto marginalised in favour of a minority they now sought to exclude. It carried on into the country’s post-colonial politics. For nearly three decades Rwanda’s postcolonial rulers presided over an ethnocracy that perpetuated the negative colonial legacy of ethnic division. They systematically practiced a politics of exclusion and repression that placed the country’s long-term stability under threat, eventually led to civil war, and culminated in the genocide of 1994. After the genocide and the defeat and overthrow of the ancien regime of ethnic supremacists, the new ruling elite - most of whom had spent nearly three decades in exile or been born there - embarked on re-building a collapsed state and re-ordering the country’s politics. The last fourteen years have witnessed deliberate efforts to re-orient the country away from three decades of politics of division and exclusion under the First and Second Republics, towards a system which privileges national reconciliation and unity, equity, and inclusion. This paper examines developments in post-1994 Rwanda against the background of pre-1994 politics and society, and the factors that led to and facilitated the war that culminated in the genocide and eventual overthrow of the Second Republic. It provides insights into the efforts and achievements made by the new ruling elites in pursuit of long-term peace and stability. A great deal, however, remains inadequately explored, including political organisation and the role of political parties, economic reform and management, and the reform and management of the security sector, all of which are the focus of on-going research.
The Wayeyi [: phrasebook]
(2008)
Wörterbuch: Redewendungen Bantu-English
Since independence, the government of Botswana has practiced an exclusive language policy in which only English has been used in government circles at the exclusion of all the 26 languages represented in the country, with a limited use of the national language, Setswana. However, in recent years more positive statements have been heard in Parliament, opening up to recognize the use of other languages in education and society. These statements have provided a conducive environment for Non-governmental organizations to develop other languages for use in education and out-of-school literacy. This paper focuses on the work of one such organization. It reports on a project this organization is undertaking to revive the language and culture of the Wayeyi people in North Western, and Central Botswana. It gives findings on attitudes towards Shiyeyi as a language of instruction for literacy and shows how the preference expressed for Shiyeyi has great potential for a literacy program.
This paper by the Coordinator of the Kamanakao Association reflects upon the Association’s campaign against tribally discriminatory laws, against the social stigma of past serfdom, and for human rights and democracy in Botswana. The campaign made Wayeyi from the North West District highly visible on the national scene. Through litigation up to the High Court, the Kamanakao Association broke new ground for judicial review in the broad public interest. The advance was for the cultural rights of ‘minorities’ in general, and not only in the interest of the Wayeyi. The most favourable High Court ruling recognised Yei cultural distinctness, allowed them to secede from the tribe of their past overlords, the Tawana, and concluded a landmark case in the wider fight against state-backed tribal discrimination and denial of language rights. As an insider’s account mainly about recent events, but seen in a perspective extending to precolonial times, the paper focuses on strategies for and against change. These are the strategies effecting the power relations, in turn, between the Yeyi and the Tawana, former serfs and overlords, the Yeyi and the Government, and the Government and the Tswana speaking tribes unfairly privileged by the tribally discriminatory laws.
Flora et Vegetatio Sudano-Sambesica (formerly "Etudes sur la flore et la végétation du Burkina Faso et des pays avoisinantes") is a refereed, international journal aimed at presenting high quality papers dealing with all fields of geobotany and ethnobotany of the Sudano-Sambesian zone and adjacent regions. The journal welcomes fundamental and applied research articles as well as review papers and short communications. English is the preferred language but papers written in French will also be accepted. The papers should be written in a style that is understandable for specialists of other disciplines as well as interested politicians and higher level practitioners. Acceptance for publication is subject to a referee-process. In contrast to its predecessor (the "Etudes …") that was a series occurring occasionally, Flora et Vegetatio Sudano-Sambesica is a journal, being published regularly with one volume per year. Edited by Rüdiger Wittig (Frankfurt), Sita Guinko (Ouagadougou), Brice Sinsin (Cotonou), Adjima Thiombiano (Ouagadougou).
La Journée Internationale des Musées dont le thème cette année est : « Les musées et les jeunes », nous offre l’agréable occasion d’échanger avec de jeunes scolaires sur la question de la valorisation du patrimoine culturel immatériel. Cette initiative du Musée de la Musique est à saluer ; car si je ne m’abuse, c’est l’une des rares occasions que le service chargé de la protection et de la valorisation du patrimoine culturel a pour s’entretenir de cette question avec les scolaires. Que toute l’équipe du Musée de la Musique en soit remerciée ! Les remerciements vont également à l’endroit de toutes celles et de tous ceux qui ont fait le déplacement de ce soir. La jeunesse, comme on a coutume de le dire « constitue l’avenir de la nation. » C’est à elle que reviendra le témoin de conduire, dans un futur proche, le destin de la nation. Dès lors se pose la question de savoir quelle éducation inculquer à cette jeunesse dans un monde globalisé. Comme l’a dit un célèbre historien burkinabé, en l’occurrence le Pr. Joseph KI-ZERBO, « Pour savoir où l’on va, il faut d’abord savoir d’où l’on vient. » Cette affirmation pour dire que le passé et tout ce qui lui est rattaché est fondamental dans la connaissance du présent et dans la projection de l’avenir. Pour cela, la jeunesse doit être éduquée aux valeurs fondamentales et cardinales de nos sociétés. C’est pourquoi, la jeunesse doit connaître son patrimoine culturel.Qu’est-ce que le patrimoine culturel et comment les jeunes peuvent-ils s’impliquer dans sa préservation ? Voici les questions autours desquelles s’articulera notre intervention.
Since independence from British colonial rule, Uganda has had a turbulent political history characterised by putsches, dictatorship, contested electoral outcomes, civil wars and a military invasion. There were eight changes of government within a period of twenty-four years (from 1962-1986), five of which were violent and unconstitutional. This paper identifies factors that account for these recurrent episodes of political violence and state collapse. While colonialism bequeathed the country a negative legacy including a weak state apparatus, ethnic division, skewed development, elite polarisation and a narrow economic base, post-colonial leaders have on the whole exacerbated rather than reversed these trends. Factors such as ethnic rivalry, political exclusion, militarisation of politics, weak state institutions, and unequal access to opportunities for self-advancement help to account for the recurrent cycles of violence and state failure prior to 1986. External factors have also been important, particularly the country’s politically turbulent neighbourhood, the outcome of political instability and civil conflict in surrounding countries. Neighbourhood turbulence stemming from such factors as civil wars in Congo and Sudan has had spill-over effects in that it has allowed insurgent groups geographical space within which to operate as well as provided opportunities for the acquisition of instruments of war with which to destabilise the country. Critical to these processes have been the porosity of post-colonial borders and the inability by the Ugandan state to exercise effective control over its entire territory. By demonstrating the interplay between internal and external factors in shaping Uganda’s postcolonial experience, the paper makes an important shift away from conventional explanations that have focused disproportionately on internal processes. Lastly, the paper provides pointers to areas of further research such as the economic foundations of conflict that should ultimately strengthen our understanding of factors that combine to make state-making fail or succeed.
Exploring elites and their relations to institutions can assist understanding the day-to-day realities of politics in Africa (Chabal and Daloz 1999, Amundsen 2001, Lindberg 2003). This review is a scoping exercise in what has been written on the subject in recent years. The main task of the review is to summarise current understandings of how elites work with and through political institutions in Africa. There is a huge literature in this subject area. We have tried to pick out a) that which is most pertinent and non-repetitive, and b) that which raises as many questions as it provides answers. On the whole we have focused on literature published in the last five to ten years and we have inclined towards the literature on Anglophone Africa. The review is presented as follows: Section 1 is an introduction to Africa’s recent political landscape and it introduces some of the major issues that appear in the literature. Section 2 provides some working definitions of elites, institutions and democratisation as three of the recurring themes in the review. Section 3 reviews literature broadly on democratisation in Africa and specifically on elections and elites. Section 4 examines how political parties have evolved over the last 15 years. Section 5 reviews the three branches of government and Section 6 briefly examines decentralisation and its relation to elites and politics. The remaining sections of the review move outside the more formal political structures to examine the media (Section 7), civil society (Section 8), women’s movements (Section 9), Trades unions (Section 10) and business associations (Section 11). The final Section 12 pulls out a number of gaps in the research that we have identified in the course of the review. Section 13 contains a complete bibliography of citations used in the review. It is crucial to remember that Africa’s experiences of democratisation are no more than 15 years old, and many scholars have cautioned that it is still very early to draw any definite conclusions (Amundsen 2001; Randall and Svasand 2002).

The National Library of the Republic of Mauritius was established as a body corporate under the National Library Act 1996 No. 32. The main role of the National Library of Mauritius is to build the most comprehensive collection of our national heritage by collecting, receiving and preserving all publications and productions printed and produced in Mauritius for present and future generations. The main source of its acquisition is by means of the legal deposit system as per the National Library Act 1996 which stipulates that every printer in Mauritius is required to deposit free of charge with the Director of the National Library six copies of each publication, be it a book, periodical, report, newspaper or any other printed document. The same rule applies to all the producers in Mauritius who have to deposit six copies of any non-print materials produced. To ensure that access is given to the most comprehensive collection of Mauritiana materials, the National Library has also to acquire all print and non-print materials published abroad, whose subject matter is related to Mauritius. Along with, the National Library will build a collection of foreign reference materials on different subjects of interest to Mauritius. Equally of vital importance to the National Library is the conservation of our cultural heritage – ways and means are being worked out to preserve and conserve documents for generations to come. The aim of the National Library is to become the premier library in Mauritius in the dissemination of both retrospective and current information, utilizing modern techniques and other technological advances. The National Library is at the service of the Mauritian people, for the purpose of their research, scholarship and creativity. This Strategic Plan sets out the vision, strategic management principles, goals, objectives and plan of action that will govern the National Library for the next three years.

Harman Dahl's legacy
(2001)
It was midnight on Friday 31, December 1999. Harman Dahl fell off his seat at the sound of all hell letting loose around him. He held on to the bench on which he had dozed off and wobbled onto his feet. His senses returned, even though he was still tipsy, under the influence of alcohol. He had been drinking with colleagues for most of the day. ...
Consistent with its statutory responsibility, the National Library compiles the current ‘National Bibliography of Mauritius’ every year. The object of the current National Bibliography is to list every new work printed and published in and on Mauritius, to describe it in detail and give its bibliographical data and subject matter as precisely as possible. The National Bibliography is considered as a useful information tool, which gives access to the National Library’s Mauritiana Collection. It contains works printed in Mauritius during that period and deposited at the National Library, under the Legal Deposit Regulations and also those acquired through other sources. It includes books, society newsletters, government publications, current serials, reports, company accounts and reports, school magazines and newspapers. The first ‘National Bibliography of Mauritius’ for the years 1996 to 2000 was published in 2002. The second ‘National Bibliography of Mauritius’ for the years 2001 to 2003 was published in May 2005.
The limits of Cushitic
(1980)
Gegenstände der Untersuchung sind genetische Gliederung und historische Rekonstruktion im Kuschitischen. Nach dem Kriterium gemeinsamer sprachlicher Innovationen sind folgende Schlüsse möglich: (1) Ik ist keine kuschitische, nicht einmal eine afroasiatische Sprache. (2) Es ist durchaus nicht sicher, daß die Burji-Sidamo-Gruppe (Rift-Valley-Kuschitisch) mit dem Tieflandkuschitischen einen genetischen Zweig - das Ostkuschitische - bildet. Die Burji-Sidamo-Gruppe kannte am engsten mit dem Agaw verwandt sein und mit ihm einen anderen genetischen Zweig - das Hochlandkuschitische - bilden. (3) Die Iraqw-Gruppe - und mit ihr vermutlich das gesamte Südkuschitische - gehört zum Tieflandkuschitischen und bildet keinen selbständigen Zweig des Kuschitischen. (4) Obwohl das Beja zweifellos eine afroasiatische Sprache ist, ist jedoch nicht zuverlässig bewiesen, daß es zum Kuschitischen gehört. Seine genaue Stellung zum Kuschitischen (dem Kuschitischen nächstverwandter Zweig oder nicht einmal dies?) bleibt noch zu klären. Die Erörterung und Beweisführung beruht auf Rekonstruktionen des Verbalsystems und der Kasus, auf einem Systemvergleich der Determinationselemente und der Genitivmorpheme sowie auf anderen syntaktischen und morphologischen Merkmalen. Auch einige Prinzipien der linguistischen Typologie wurden herangezogen. Es handelt sich um vorläufige Ergebnisse.
Le problème que nous abordons ici représente une entreprise bien téméraire à cause des multiples aspects qui le caractérisent et du manque de données concordantes le concernant. En effet, à notre grande surprise d'ailleurs, il n'a pas été facile de recueillir des informations "sûres" auprès des "sources" qu'on aurait pu juger dignes de foi. C'est la preuve que nos traditions tombent de plus en plus dans l'oubli du passé. A celui qui s'engage, à effectuer une démarche de ce genre devrait logiquement se poser un problème de méthodologie afin d'approcher le sujet d'une manière scientifique.
Die vorliegende Schrift verfolgt das Ziel, in weiteren Kreisen unseres Volkes Verständnis und Interesse für den volkswirtschaftlichen Wert unserer Kolonien zu wecken. Vor allem möchte sie auch der Jugend einen Einblick geben in die weiten Gebiete neuer Arbeit und nationaler Aufgaben, vor die wir durch den Erwerb überseeischer Besitzungen gestellt werden. Zu dem Zweck ist das für unsere Kolonien wichtigste Arbeitsgebiet, der Anbau und die Gewinnung pflanzlicher Erzeugnisse, in den Vordergrund gestellt und ausführlicher behandelt worden.
