    Volume I, issue 3 (Summer, 1994). Includes Household Surveys of Women in Urban Mozambique, regional Elections in namibia.  
    http://www.ccsu.edu/afstudy/upd1-3.html
    
    Extractions: Vol. I, Issue. 3 (Summer, 1994): Focus on Southern Africa HOME ARCHIVES Table of Contents After about three hundred and fifty years of Dutch-Afrikaner and British domination, under the guise of various white supremacist ideologies, Black South Africans were able to vote - between April 26th and 28th this year. The Afrikaner Resistance Group, a right-wing neo-Nazi organisation planted over 17 bombs within the voting period, killing at least 21 persons, but that did not stop the elections. Nor were they prevented by Buthelezi of the Inkatha movement. In the wake of the global pro-democracy movement and persistent armed resistance, de Klerk and his cronies had little choice but to come to a negotiated settlement and put to rest the nefarious policy of apartheid. In this issue of Africa Update we focus on the South African elections to a large extent but we also pay attention to developments and issues from other parts of Southern Africa including Namibia and Mozambique.

    Extractions: In January, Prime Minister Hage Geingob admitted in a letter to the independent daily Namibian that the Ministry of Defense was deliberately withholding information from all domestic media concerning Namibia's involvement in the conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The prime minister claimed that the Namibian press had published "distortions" about the conflict in the DRC and that news published in the Namibian also appeared on the Internet and was therefore accessible to DRC rebel forces. In March, Nathaniel Maxuilili, a member of Parliament from the ruling South West African People's Organization (SWAPO), threatened to ban a popular Oshiwambo-language talk show for airing what he called "nonsense" about the country's involvement in the DRC. "If I ask the government to stop [the talk show], it will," said Maxuilili at a Defense Ministry press briefing (reported in the Namibian ), At the same press conference, Maxuilili also reprimanded journalist John Grobler for asking "silly questions" about the role of Namibian troops in the DRC conflict.

    Extractions: Caprivi: short history The Caprivi region has an interesting history. The inclusion of the strange shaped strip of land into Namibia (German South West Africa) was the result of negotiations between Germany and other colonial governments at the end of the 19th century. Before Namibia became German protectorate the area was known as Itenge and for a long time was ruled by Lozi kings, later forming part of British Bechuanaland Protectorate (Botswana at the present). It was agreed at the Berlin Conference (1890) that the strip of land would be added to German South West Africa as an extension, allowing the German colony to gain access to the Zambezi River, Lake Tanganyika and Indian ocean via another German colony, Tanzania (German East Africa). The region was named after chief German negotiator at the conference, Count von Caprivi ( Count Georg Leo von Caprivi di Caprara di Montecuccoli). From 1940 to 1981 the administration was run by South Africa from Pretoria, from 1981 to 1990 it was ruled under the Administration for Caprivians as part of the South West Africa Administration. 1990 to 1992 marked the transitional period following the Namibian Independence. In 1992 Caprivi becomes one of the 13 political regions in Namibia with its own regional governor and six councilors.

Back to top The history of Botswana does much more than cover a gap between the histories of neighbouring South Africa and Zimbabwe, Namibia, Angola, and Zambia. In prehistoric and very recent times the Kalahari thirstlands of Botswana have been central in the historical geography of the region, as the intermediate territory between the savannas of the north and east and the steppes of the south and west. Between the 1880s and its independence in the 1960s, however, Botswana was a poor and peripheral British protectorate known as Bechuanaland. The country is named after its dominant

    Extractions: This paper argues that landscape photography was a medium used by colonial officials to express a whole aesthetic to their administrative purpose in northern Namibia in the inter-war period. It suggests that such aesthetics were important in manufacturing a cultural sense of the South African colonial presence on the northern frontiers. This cultural sense in turn fed into official discourses. I also wish to propose that men have recourse to landscape representation in specific and personal ways; that white colonial masculinity could use landscape to express a range of private or unacknowledged feelings about place and people and, through these, hint at an undisclosed, subjective self. The regions of Owambo and Kaoko have tended to be treated discretely, leading to a compartmentalisation of their historical trajectories in writings about the north for the first half of the 20th century. Authoring this paper about Native Commissioner Hahn’s landscape photographs in Kaoko, in effect, requires some re-connection of the two regionalised historiographies. What I say about Kaoko here is heavily inflected with my own sense of what colonial developments and ideas were unfolding in Ovamboland, for it seems ear that Hahn brought his frustrations and fantasies about ‘native administration’ with him each time he made the trek into Kaoko from his base in Ondangwa. These preoccupations took on a particular sharpness by the 1940s.

We flew up to Oshakati on Friday and this weekend we've spent getting situated and playing with ten or twelve of the kids in our neighborhood. It's nice coming home to a horde of kids screaming 'Johanna!' from across the fence. It makes me feel like I'm really coming home. (By the way, the house UNAM rented for us is really over the top. I mean I know people in general have lots of space here because the population is so small, but we don't know what to do with all of the room!) back to top Chintan Maru
