Extractions: This 10 page paper considers how human resource management is developing in South Africa in order to meet the commercial need to compete in the global economy. The paper argues that the patterns followed have many similarities with the main accepted theories, but that the way the move from personnel administration towards HRM is taking place is very different. These differences reflect the social and cultural history and values of the country and see human relations school of though emerging under a co-operative collectivism model.

Extractions: Back to Newspaper column index Back to Home Page RACISM AND THE U.N BY Marty Jezer Over a period of 100 days in 1994, Hutu tribesmen in Rwanda slaughtered an estimated 800,000 of the Tutsi minority. In the Balkans, it took a belated and blunderbuss NATO intervention to stop ethnic cleansing in Bosnia and Kosovo. Ethnic Macedonians and Albanians neighbors are still killing one another. Protestants and Catholics still cant agree to a definitive peace in Northern Ireland. Russian continues its war on the Chechen people. The plight of untouchables in India is unconscionable. Indonesia faces numerous tribal and ethnic-based conflicts. The Chinese are still determined to stamp out Buddhism in Tibet; but they, with South Korea and other Asian countries, want Japan to acknowledge its racist actions during the Second World War. Throughout Europe, the Roma (Gypsy) people face discrimination. And in the United States, black and native Americans, despite achieving legal equality, still experience everyday racism. And thats not the all of it. Racism often has an economic or political component. Sometimes its inflamed by a dispute over land. The genocide in Rwanda, for example, was a direct result of Western (especially Belgian) colonialism (and also of the refusal of the U.S. to support a UN intervention that could have stopped it). But when neighbors start murdering neighbors or when one group tries to totally annihilate another group, something basic and barbaric is going on.

Extractions: Author : Samuel Totten, William S. Parsons, Israel W. Charney, editors This is the first overview of the subject with contributions from leading scholars and thinkers. It documents meticulously atrocities and crimes against humanity that have been perpetrated for reasons ranging from "the will of God" to "ethnic cleansing". Focusing on the major atrocities of our time, this book provides accurate and verifiable historical information on how and why particular genocides were committed. Each essay is accompanied by excerpts from survivors' accounts. Genocides included are: Armenia, Bangladesh, Burundi, Cambodia, East Timor, the Holocaust, Indonesia, Rwanda, South West Africa and Ukraine. Author : Herbert Hirsch More than sixty million people have been victims of genocide in the twentieth century, including recent casualties in Bosnia and Rwanda. Herbert Hirsch studies repetitions of large-scale human violence in order to ascertain why people in every historical epoch seem so willing to kill each other. He argues that leaders often invoke or create memories of real or fictitious past injustices to motivate their followers to kill for political gain or other reasons. In order to revise the politics of memory, Hirsch proposes essential reforms in both the modern political state and in systems of education.

Extractions: Your Excellency President Thabo Mbeki; Your Excellencies Heads of State and Government; Madam Mary Robinson, United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights; Distinguished Ladies and Gentlemen; Let me begin by paying tribute to the People and Government of the Republic of South Africa for hosting this Conference Against Racism. May I also thank the United Nations, in particular, Mrs. Robinson for their contribution in rendering this Conference a success. This is indeed a very important Conference for the world community, a Conference that has particular meaning for those of us in Rwanda and in the Great Lakes region in general. We know the horror and destruction borne of racism and the difficulties of trying to overcome deep-rooted prejudice. We know that our future peace and stability depend upon gaining acceptance of the values of tolerance and diversity within our individual countries, and across the region as a whole. We are also aware, of course, that the lives of our fellow-Africans elsewhere have been marked by the scourge of racist attitudes and behaviour, nowhere more poignantly than in South Africa itself. For this reason, it is especially significant that we are gathered together here in Durban. This city and this country are a salutary reminder of the dangers of racism. But South Africa is also an encouraging symbol of what can be achieved when a people unite to safeguard their shared future, when Africans join hands across the continent and when the world rejects a political system which is an offence to our common humanity. Debating the critical issues on the agenda of this conference in South Africa will, I am sure, be an inspiration to all of us. It will be a constant reminder that the most insurmountable obstacles can be overcome; that tolerance, dignity and decency can win the day, provided we continue to cherish that vision and work together as a world community to make it a reality for all our peoples. I would therefore like to add my voice to the other speakers who have expressed their

Extractions: For more than a generation, Canadian writers of all backgrounds have been exploring Africa. The transatlantic traffic in ideas and books has never been richer. When writer Ken Wiwa stares outside his office window in search of inspiration, he sees an empty white space like a blank sheet of paper - the snow-covered quadrangle of Massey College at the University of Toronto. "It's hard to imagine Africa," he says. Yet that is what Wiwa, an accomplished non-fiction writer and columnist for The Globe and Mail , is currently trying to do: develop his first novel, an exploration of tribal memory and dislocation set amid the brilliant tropical sunshine, the honking and shouting cacophony, the pollution, exuberance and heat of his family's native Nigeria. "I'm consistently finding that reports of Africa in the Canadian news media are all about issues, about trouble," says Wiwa. "It makes you wary of Africa." And yet, he points out, a recent British poll found that Nigerians rated themselves as the world's happiest people. "The troubles are real enough, but from the outside, it's hard to get Africa's complexity right." Nevertheless, a surprising number of Canadian writers have attempted to do just that - some of them with considerable success.

Trade deals and troop deployments followed. MANNY THAIN reports. IN FIVE DAYS in June, George W Bush visited five sub-Saharan African states: Senegal, South Africa, Botswana, Uganda and Nigeria. His mission was to promote compassionate capitalism the human face of a system which condemns half the worlds people to destitution. He promised $15 billion over five years to fight HIV/Aids. He used press conferences and meetings to talk about trade deals. Bush lectured audiences on freedom, democracy and the war on terror. Bushs promises not a cent has yet been paid over were welcomed by some aid agencies. Bob Geldof, of the Band Aid charity, naively lavished praise on the US president. But Bushs safari was no altruistic adventure. It was conducted in the interests of US capitalism. The Republican Party hoped it would be good PR, impacting positively on the votes of African-Americans in next years presidential election. That was the reason Bush started his tour on Gorée Island, where slaves were crammed onto ships destined for the US. His speech was aimed directly at US voters: "The racial bigotry fed by slavery did not end with slavery or with segregation. And many of the issues that still trouble America have roots in the bitter experience of other times. But however long the journey, our destination is set: liberty and justice for all".

Extractions: Ethnic conflicts continue to ravage Central Africa, taking an ever-greater toll of human life. This article suggests a sociological approach to ethnicity, taking as its basis the creation of ethnic divisions in Rwanda. Hence the idea that the ethnic divide between Rwandan Hutu, Tutsi and Twa is the result of an historical process in the course of which these peoples have come to internalise their ethnic background. The idea developed that a sovereign state should be a nation state that protects the common interests of people who believe they share a culture, language and territory. But why should people attach importance to their ethnic identities? Here an alternative explanation is given, which informs much current analysis of ethnicity and stresses the constructed nature of identities.
