Central African Republic The Central African Republic is a constitutional democracy with a multiparty indigenous People. Despite constitutional protection, there is societal http://www.state.gov/g/drl/rls/hrrpt/2000/af/731.htm
Extractions: The Central African Republic is a constitutional democracy with a multiparty legislature. Ange Felix Patasse, leader of the Movement for the Liberation of the Central African People (MLPC), who first was elected president in 1993, was reelected with a narrow majority in 1999. The 1999 presidential election, like National Assembly elections held in late 1998, generally was free but was controlled by the Government and was marred by irregularities that tended to favor the ruling party candidate. Although the Constitution provides for separation of powers, the legislature is vulnerable to manipulation by the President, who dominates the Government. The president can veto legislation, although two-thirds of the unicameral legislature can override his veto, and he can rule by decree under special conditions. The Constitution provides for an independent judiciary; however, it is subject to executive interference.

Keith Anthony Morrison: Art And Ethnography Essay The ngbaka drum is considered a male instrument and was designed to appear as an of people of African descent and their relation to a Eurocentric world. http://www.keithmorrison.com/biblio/artethno.html
Extractions: (San Francisco: M.H. de Young Memorial Museum, 1998) My installation of art and ethnology tries to show how the arts of different people and different times reflect their ethnology, regardless of their cultures - even those that are Eurocentric. My thesis is that all art is inherently ethnological. Focusing on the theme of music and using art selected from the M.H. de Young Memorial Museum's permanent collection, I try to show how music is manifested differently in different cultures, or at different times in the same culture's history. I have augmented the installation with several of my own paintings that use music as a theme. One of the objects I have chosen to redefine as art is a drum from the Ngbaka people of Northern Zaire (Democratic Republic of Congo), an object the M.H. de Young Museum exhibits as ethnographic. The drum simultaneously can be a musical instrument and a work of art. Whereas Western artists often make art objects to describe or illustrate life, cultures such as the Ngbaka make the object of expression-such as the drum- one and the same as the art. We all know that drums are among the oldest instruments, common to practically every culture. The drum, worldwide, looks much the same: a conical, cylin- drical, convex, or concave tube with a bald flat top that you beat with your hand or a stick. Drums have been used by many cultures not only to make music, but also to make sounds and sonic codes. The drum is a primordial instrument of transition from sound to rhythm. When asked where jazz might end, Dizzy Gillespie replied, "Where it began, with someone playing a drum."

Extractions: Before colonization, the region had partially been touched by Arab incursions and a system of domestic slave trade oriented downstream was in place. The colonial occupation of the Mbandaka region started in 1883, and spread slowly toward the interior. It can be considered as accomplished around 1910. The Leopoldian system of exploitation touched this people's vital strength seriously, and, together with imported illnesses (sleep sickness, syphilis, among others) it decimated the population (2). Christianization started in 1883 by the Protestant English Baptists, who were soon replaced by American Baptists (Disciples of Christ) in the southern part and by the Congo Balolo Mission (English) in the northern part. Catholics made their entry with the Trappists of the Abbey of Westmalle (Belgium) in 1895, followed by the fathers of Mill Hill in 1905 in the north, the Lazaristes among the Ekonda and the Ntomba (1928), the Passionistes among the Atetela, the Picpus among the Ndengese, and the Scheutists in the rest of the region, each of them arriving at varying dates.
Extractions: Also at the ceremony, UNESCO Director-General Koïchiro Matsuura stressed that through literacy, the downtrodden could find their voice, the poor could learn how to learn and the powerless could empower themselves. The drive for universal literacy was integrally linked to the human rights agenda. Literacy was not a universal panacea for all development problems, but, as a tool of development, it was both versatile and proven. The literacy as freedom initiative was designed to "free people from ignorance, incapacity and exclusion" and empower them for action, choices and participation, he said. Highlighting the enormity of the challenge, he said the spread of literacy required stamina and staying power from all partners, noting that the growth rate of world literacy had slowed in recent years. President Natsagiin Bagabandi of Mongolia, the original sponsor of the Literacy Decade resolution adopted by the 56th General Assembly in December 2001, warned that the international community would fail to guarantee equal human rights for all as long as it accepted illiteracy. Literacy was not only the primary requirement for economic well-being, but also a solid base for a lifelong investment in a better and happy life. President Bagabandi said that the virtual elimination of illiteracy called for an effective partnership based on redoubled efforts, resource mobilization and coordination of relevant policies and strategies at the global level. Education empowered people so they could effectively overcome underdevelopment, poverty and unemployment, and contribute to the cause of sustainable development and democracy.
Extractions: 2) THE PROBLEM OF PROTECTED AREAS 3) SWIDDEN AGRICULTURE ; CONSTRAINTS AND POSSIBLE IMPROVEMENTS ... b) Improvements It is important to maintain a double balance between on the one hand the area of land put to use and which is available to all in the community, and demography on the other hand : the result is a delicate problem of population density Population growth + reduced land areas = DANGER The immigration of non-indigenous populations in the forested areas, land given over to development, to exploitation or even to nature conservation, etc, all these elements make one wonder how much land is actually left for indigenous populations, what activities they are allowed to carry out, and it requires that one elaborate some kind of policy defining the position of these populations within the Nation State. In defining the necessary land areas, two factors must be taken into account, each requiring very different spatial units : - shifting agriculture with a long fallow ;
Ogbunike, My Beloved Hometown In Nigeria. The signatories to the letter, on behalf of the people of Ogbunike, He alwaysdesired to return to work in africa after this first experience in Sierra http://www.afrikaworld.net/ogbunike/
Extractions: 1. Geographical survey The town is bounded on the East by Umudioka (Idemili Local Government Area), on the north-east by Umunya (Oyi Local Government Area) and on the North by Nkwelle-Ezunaka (also Oyi Local Government Area). She shares her boundary on the West and South with Ogidi (Idemili Local Government Area). She has an uneven landscape, sufficient rainfall and fertile soil. The 1953 national census peged the number of the inhabitants at 5,366. Since then there has been an explosion in the population. In 1993 the figures rose up by 42%. 2. Historical Survey Umu-Iguedo clan Ogbunike belongs to Umu-Iguedo clan. There is no dispute about this in history. Until recently the indigenes of the town participated in the olili-nne-Iguedo and they usually sent their offering to the traditional priest of Nando. Iguedo, a woman, is widely regarded aetiologically as the mother of the Umu-Iguedo clan. There are divergent opinions on this. No position can be outrightly and correctly accepted or rejected, as some of the data came purely through oral tradition and scanty archaeological discoveries. But there is near unanimity in different parts of the area of our studies concerning the strong connection between an individual person called Iguedo and the towns that constitute Umu-Iguedo clan.

Extractions: This page gives the sources for each language on the Numbers from 1 to 10 page . Sometimes half the work in dealing with a new language is finding out what it is, and relating it to the sometimes wildly varying classifications from Ruhlen , Voegelin, and the Ethnologue. There are notes relating to this, as well as information on dialects , and names of languages I don't have yet.
