54. Guinea-Bissau, Between Conflict And Democracy - African Security Review Vol 13 N

Between conflict and democracy
Published in African Security Review Vol 13 No 4, 2004
Introduction
Guinea-Bissau became independent in 1974, after a 13-year liberation struggle against Portuguese colonial rule by the Although Guinea-Bissau is a small country (only 36 120 square kilometres) its 1,5 million people are among Africa 's most diverse in terms of ethnic and religious affiliations. Guinean society comprises some 40 ethnic groups, which are generally classified under five headings: the Balante (30%), the Fula (20%), the Mandingo (13%), the Papel (13%) and the Manjaco (14%). Some 45% of the population practise traditional religion, 40% (mainly the Fula and the Mandingo) are Muslim, and 13% are Christian. This diversity is also evident at linguistic level. Although Portuguese is the official language and French has increasingly been used in recent times, various local languages are also spoken. mestizo The first decade of the regime in Guinea-Bissau was marked by power struggles within the party, the abolition of the post of prime minister, and the emergence of a personality cult through a concentration of presidential powers. In 1985 Vice-President Paulo Correia was among six leading political figures who were executed for attempting a coup. Under pressure from the international community, especially France and Portugal, Nino Vieira allowed a gradual internal liberalisation of the political regime, with a view to implementing full democracy. In 1990 he accepted the principles of a multiparty political system. The years that followed represented a period of transition during which new political parties were formed, the freedom of the press was established, trade union activity was permitted, and the death penalty was abolished. Though the first multiparty elections, in July/August 1994, did not lead to any change in the allocation of power

Independence brought peace but not prosperity. Roads, ports and bridges had been destroyed in the war: there were shortages of food, expertise and agricultural know-how. Export trade - of peanuts, fish and palm kernels - had collapsed and the country relied on aid from both East and West. Today conditions are slowly improving. Although food production is increasing people still go short of rice, the staple. Women do most of the farming and earn a little cash from their peanut crop. Julian Quon

Between materialist and idealist anthropology
The relations between the symbolic order and the political economy of any social formation are unmistakable and often throw an interesting light upon the specific structure and dynamics of the symbolic order. But the potential of such analysis gets spent, and after initial illumination it soon turns out that some of our fundamental research questions tend to become remain unanswered (if they do not become obscured and misdirected) under a materialist approach. The reasons that made some of us adopt that approach in the first place remain valid (cf. van Binsbergen 1984a). These reasons do not primarily lie (contrary to Droogers 1985) in the academic market incentives at fashionable theoretical innovation, but in the following considerations which together somehow sum up the current neo-Marxist inspiration: (a) A rejection of the philosophical idealism which for almost a century (under the impact of Durkheim and his philosophical forbears) has dominated social anthropology in general and especially religious anthropology, and which has claimed an independent dynamics
