MOST ETHNO-NET AFRICA PUBLICATIONS Africa at Crossroads: Complex Political Emergencies in the 21st Century, UNESCO / ENA, 2001 State-Making and Internal Population Displacement: Factoring the State into Forced Migration in Nigeria during Military Rule Okechukwu Ibeanu P.O. Box 3106 Department of Political Science University of Nigeria, Nsukka Nigeria Abstract Introduction Internal population displacement has emerged as a major global problem since the end of the Cold War. In 1998, it was estimated that there were 20-22 million internally displaced people in the world, most of them in Africa (Hampton, 1998: xv; Schmeidl, 1998; Bennett, 1998: 28). The marked increase in this population has, understandably, been accompanied by an increased attention of the international community, policy makers and academics, resulting in a concomitant rise in research on Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) (Ludlam-Taylor, 1998). The predominant inclination in existing knowledge is to see the rising tide of internal population displacement as the fault of the state and the actions of those that run it. Factors such as human rights violation, poor policy choices, political instability, poor social and welfare provisioning and the inability of the state to manage social conflicts are commonly held accountable for the problem (Helle, 1998; McNamara, 1998). Having defined the problem as one of state management, recourse is then made to the establishment of a normative framework to guide state behaviour towards its citizens. It is not surprising that the Secretary-General’s Special Representative on IDPs has focused attention on the development of such a normative framework, culminating in the release of the UN Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement in 1998 (UN, 1998; Deng, 1998).

Paulinus Ikechukwu Odozor, Cssp Emerging African Alternatives to Globalization (17 March 2000) With Nigeria having recently recovered its democratic tradition we are happy to publish this article by a professor of the Spiritian International School of Theology, Enugu, Nigeria, on the factors of globalization in Africa, including Islam and Christianity, a globalization which has so far worked in favour of the Arabs and Europeans. But there are examples as in Nnewi where people have tried home-grown alternatives to this type of globalization, through economic and industrial revival, a linguistic and cultural renaissance and expressions of religious autonomy. Regional cooperation and organised protests against the recklessness of multinationals have also helped fight the negative aspects of globalization. Africa and Globaliztion From the African point of view, this process by which the world is turning more and more into "a single place" dates back to pre-colonial times when groups began to interact with each other either to trade or to engage in battle with each other in search of slaves. Two well-known historical processes — the missionary movements of the various religions and colonization — have until recently contributed, more than any other phenomenon, to draw Africa into the global single place.

14. African Storytelling the modern African writer is to his indigenous oral tradition as a snail isto its shell. one region in which the igbo peoples are concentrated. http://web.cocc.edu/cagatucci/classes/hum211/afrstory.htm

African Storytelling COCC Home Cora Agatucci Home Classes HUM 211 Home African Storytelling URL of this page: http://web.cocc.edu/cagatucci/classes/hum211/afrstory.htm "…[I]t is only the story that can continue beyond the war and the warrior. It is the story that outlives the sound of war-drums and the exploits of brave fighters. It is the story...that saves our progeny from blundering like blind beggars into the spikes of the cactus fence. The story is our escort; without it, we are blind. Does the blind man own his escort? No, neither do we the story; rather it is the story that owns us and directs us." Chinua Achebe, Anthills of the Savannah "I will tell you something about stories....They aren't just entertainment... They are all we have...to fight off illness and death. You don't have anything if you don't have the stories." Leslie Marmon Silko, epigraph to Ceremony Traditionally, Africans have revered good stories and storytellers, as have most past and present peoples around the world who are rooted in oral cultures and traditions. Ancient writing traditions do exist on the African continent, but most Africans today, as in the past, are primarily oral peoples, and their art forms are oral rather than literary. In contrast to written "literature," African "orature" (to use Kenyan novelist and critic Ngugi wa Thiong’o's phrase) is orally composed and transmitted, and often created to be verbally and communally performed as an integral part of dance and music. The Oral Arts of Africa are rich and varied, developing with the beginnings of African cultures, and they remain living traditions that continue to evolve and flourish today.

16. Sacred Earth - Ethnobotany And Ecotravel: Indigenous Knowledge Resources The Kainai (Blood) peoples were at risk of loosing precious knowledge of indigenous africa. indigenous knowledge of miombo trees in Morogoro, Tanzania http://www.sacredearth.com/ik.htm

Indigenous Knowledge Around the World In recent years scientists have increasingly been turning to the keepers of indigeneous knowledge, realizing that their age-old systems have managed to preserve an ecological balance or that their medicines might have tremendous potential for the development of modern drugs. But this renewed interest is not always welcomed by the indigenous people themselves. Having been exploited for centuries and their rights abused too many times by those who claim to come as friends, they are now often rather reserved and suspicious and unwilling to share what they consider a sacred aspect of their culture. And rightfully so. Pharmaceutical companies in particular have already demonstrated that they have no respect for the cultural or intellectual property of others, but cheerfully engage in acts of biopiracy, stealing biological materials as well as the knowledge that goes with it to take out patents that will benefit only themselves. The debate surrounding biopiracy, intellectual and cultural property rights and benefit sharing has been raging for well over a decade now, and still no satisfactory solution has been found, though at least the international community has acknowledged the problems and is engaged in a process of finding a solution that involves representatives of the indigenous communities concerned. It is a difficult task, but for the sake of our future as a human family it is vital that we resolve these issues faierly and responsibly.

17. WorldViews: The Peoples Of Africa One final caution that is germane to the study of africa s peoples is that the word indigenous peoples, with the peoples of africa included among them. http://worldviews.igc.org/awpguide/peoples.html

AFRICA: Africa World Press Guide compiled and edited by WorldViews AFRICA'S PEOPLES A rich diversity of ancient and proud societies T here are strengths and weaknesses attached to the study of Africa through a focus on the continent's diverse and numerous peoples. The strengths are that the continent is reduced to a more manageable size, the diversity and the rich traditions of Africa's peoples are accentuated, and the similiarities and differences among peoples everywhere in the world can be identified and analyzed. Finally, a study of the particularities of discrete societies throughout the African continent cha llenges the misperception of Africa as an undifferentiated mass of peoples. The attendant weaknesses in this approach are that Africa's population of 735 million may be reduced to exotic images and stereotypes of one or another African society or they may remain frozen in the context of the particular historical period or geog raphic locale being studied. In the introdution to his book, The Shona and their Neighbours (Beach 1994), historian David Beach (University of Zimbabwe) clearly delineates the traps that can ensnare the unwary in a study of the peoples of Africa. H e takes, as just one example, the rock paintings and stone buildings for which inhabitants of the Zimbabwean plateau are reknowned. "From the standpoint of Shona studies," Beach points out, "[the paintings and buildings] have been both a blessing and a cu rse. On the one hand, the sheer beauty of the former attracted many of the minority of educated whites into the discipline of archaeology, but it also ensured that they devoted their attention to a period and people fairly remote from the [modern-day] Sho na and their recent neighbours." Clearly, as Beach suggests, the particularlities and generalities must be kept in proper balance at all times.
