   Extractions: In an effort to strengthen its legitimacy, abroad if not among the Angolan population, the MPLA government has announced that fresh elections will be held in 2001. It is generally agreed, however, that such an exercise will be impossible until 2003 at the earliest, given the collapse of physical and administrative infrastructure, and the lack of any control over the larger part of the national territory.

   Extractions: Conventional weapons systems, so decisive in conflicts where military is pitched against military, have little real effect in maintaining the security of civilian populations during and after wars. The majority of casualties, of abuses of authority and of indiscriminate killings are caused by the availability and use of small arms. Since small arms and light weapons, which include landmines, machine guns, grenades, pistols and rocket launchers, are standard issue during violent conflict and are not normally controlled during post-conflict processes, the potential of these weapons for illegal use - and abuse - is substantial. Because conflict resolution processes depend on socio-economic development, effective democracy and security (as seen in a credible law and order structure), these remedies require time and stability for their successful implementation. If there is indiscriminate access to the tools of violence (i.e., weapons), stability will be harder to maintain and development in time of peace will not take place.

   Extractions: Remote Name: Ase, Camaras, Ase. Is the Atomic Bomb a Chinese creation ? No, but they were the ones to first use TNT (that in its turn lead to the other explosives up to the Bomb) ? So is Capoeira african. Capoeira (in my personal opinion) is african by blood and brazillian by place of birth, so the term afro-brazillian sounds to me as being the most accurate (and this is my (and only mine) opinion). I could say that I learned this from my previous Mestres, and why not just because an old say (I love them) we have in Brazil: "The one who repeats an history adds an end point to it" ("Quem conta um conto aumenta um ponto"). So saying that is my (and only mine) opinion I'm trying to make everyone aware that it may have my two cents on it, this way if someone wanna "attack" my opinion this will be an "attack" to me not to any of the Mestres who had taught me. Regarding the origins research, it has the same biggest problem as the research of any other afro-brazillian expression that is dated from the brazillian empire: In the very beggining of the Brazillian Republic, a financial minister (Mr. Rui Barbosa) ordered that all the records of the slavery system were burned. His alegations for such act were that they represented a stain in Brazil's History (but just for you guys to think: he came from a very well know family of slavers and at that point in time some institutions were asking a reimbursement from the slavers based on those documents).

    Extractions: Courses ... essays Angola and Mozambique: the weight of history Patrick Chabal I want to consider here whether a more historical and comparative approach would help to shed some light on the present condition and future fate of Angola and Mozambique. My aim is not primarily to give an account of the current situation in these two southern African Portuguese-speaking countries but rather to see whether what is happening today can be made more intelligible by means of an historical analysis. Nor do I claim that comparing Angola and Mozambique is the only way of making sense of the contemporary history of these two countries. I would merely like to consider whether such a comparison can add another dimension to the analysis of their post-colonial fortune. The two main questions I shall try to answer are: (1) why has the situation in Angola become so intractable? and (2) why is it that Mozambique has managed to resolve a conflict which on the face of it appeared worse than in Angola? The most common response to the first is that the situation in Angola was bound to be difficult to resolve because of the historical division of the country between the three main ethnic constituencies (Bakongo, Kimbundu and Ovimbundu). The standard reply to the second is that, following the end of apartheid in South Africa, Renamo simply ran out of steam and had to settle. There is some truth in both of these points but I will show here why they are over-simplifications.

    Extractions: Source: The Library of Congress Country Studies Figure 1. Administrative Divisions of Angola, 1988 Clearly, turmoil, victimization, and disappointment are themes that have pervaded Angola's history, especially since the arrival of Europeans in the fifteenth century. Although the Portuguese crown initially sent to Angola teachers to educate and priests to proselytize, Portugal eventually came to view the area mainly as a source for slaves, especially for Brazil, its colony across the Atlantic Ocean. In the several centuries during which the slave trade flourished, scholars estimate that 4 million Africans from the Angola region were taken into slavery. Of this number, perhaps half died before reaching the New World. During its five centuries of colonization, Portugal treated Angola mostly with indifference or hostility. Although Angolans were often responsible for enslaving other Africans, Portuguese traders provided the impetus and the market for slaving. By raising small armies, Portuguese fought their way into Angola's interior, disrupting as they went kingdoms having sophisticated civilizations. Less alluring to Portuguese settlers than Brazil, Angola generally attracted poorer immigrants, a great many of whom were degredados (see Glossary), or exiled convicts. Portugal's exploitation of Angola did not cease even after slavery had been legally abolished in Angola in 1858. Lisbon spent the last part of the nineteenth century engaged in wars against the African kingdoms that it had not yet conquered and in consolidating its hold on territories awarded to it at the Berlin Conference of 1884 during the so-called scramble for Africa.

    Extractions: Home What is Capoeira? Class Timetable Professor Boneco ... Forum Capoeira is a completely unique Brazilian art-form. Born of oppression and slavery, it combines music and dance with martial arts and physical conditioning. Capoeira is a game, a fight, a dance and many other things. It is played by two people within a circle of other players (the roda) while they provide the music and rhythm that dictates the game. The two players try and outsmart each other, avoiding incoming kicks and transforming their defenses to attack from different angles. The spectators stand around the players playing the music that dictates the style and pace of the game, all the while singing songs that recall Capoeira's past history and culture. Capoeira has evolved over hundreds of years, assimilating elements of modern martial arts whilst retaining its cultural heritage and influences to produce a dazzling show of skill and interaction. Amazonas Capoeira is an independent school based in London run by two Brazilian sisters, Rilene and Rejane. Amazonas Capoeira Brighton is an extension of the main school run by their brother Boneco. We train three times a week and organise regular meetings on the beach at weekends. All are welcome to come and experience this amazing Brazilian discipline. Latest Update - Complete site redesign
