INDEX OF BACK ISSUES ESSAY I s Liberia West Africa's evil empire? Kofi Akosah-Sarpong writes from Ottawa, Canada Liberia, the oldest republic in Africa, is roughly 153 years old. Roughly, the country shaped like human teeth, has been a top newsmaker in West Africa, becoming a den for anarchic vibration, money launderers and drug dealers, and other unAfrican, evil practices. Sierra Leone's Foday Sankoh is a product of the Liberian rebel 'university.' In the book: Criminalization of the State in Africa (1999) we read about the Liberian state increasingly criminalised by the NPFL government via drug trafficking and currency laundering, and where the game is crime is seen as moral despite international laws. Here evil pays, and it is the law. That's the machine for crime. Guinea's Ahmed Toure, elder son of the late President Sekou Toure, who is leading a guerrilla campaign against the President Lansana Conte government, is a graduate of the Liberian rebel school.

LAND OF THE BLACKSLAND OF THE BIBLE : Ancient Egypt was known indigenously as Kemet (Land of the Blacks). Ancient Egyptians have pinpointed their own ancestral origins to the Mount Rwenzori range in the east African cradle, otherwise known as the Mountains of the Moon. Some accounts state that Egyptian civilization came out of Ethiopia, which as a term was used to designate the land south of Egypt (the Upper Nile Valley), or was alternatively used to refer to the entire African continent. Chronologically therefore Egypt’s southern neighbor Nubia, which had its own distinct civilization, was her Nile Valley predecessor.

    World AIDS Day on December 1 has adopted the slogan 'Live and let live' , the theme of the World AIDS Campaign 2002-2003. The campaign focuses on eliminating stigma and discrimination, the major obstacles to effective HIV/AIDS prevention and care. The Library, Documentation and Information Department of the African Studies Centre has compiled this web dossier on HIV/AIDS in Africa to coincide with World AIDS Day 2003. The dossier contains a selection of titles from the library's online catalogue, as well as selected web links on HIV/AIDS in Africa. It covers monographs, articles and chapters from edited works published in the last five years (1999-2003), which are arranged in three sections: Africa (general) South Africa , and Other African countries . Within each section, titles are arranged by year of publication and, within each year, alphabetically by title. Each title links directly with the corresponding record in the library's OPAC , which provides a more detailed description of all the titles as well as abstracts of articles and edited works.

    ABOUT THIS DOSSIER
    This year the tercentenary of diplomatic relations between Ghana and the Netherlands is being celebrated, both in Ghana and in the Netherlands. Events have been organized to inform the Dutch public, the media, civil society and politicians about what Ghana has to offer and to strengthen public support for development cooperation ( www.ghana300holland.nl) OPAC ).

    INTRODUCTION
    The celebrations to mark 300 years of diplomatic relations between Ghana and the Netherlands include a visit by the King of the Asante (in English: Ashanti), Osei Tutu II, to the Netherlands in June 2002. Osei Tutu is the traditional leader of the Asante, the largest ethnic group in Ghana and became king in 1999 after the death of Nana Opoku Ware II. The Asante were one of the Akan-speaking peoples who settled in the forest region of modern Ghana between the 11thand 13th centuries. The separate Asante chiefdoms were united by Osei Tutu in the 1670s and in 1696 he took the title of Asantehene (king) and founded the Asante empire. Ghana Source: His nation rapidly became more powerful by forming alliances with neighboring peoples, leading to the formation of the Ashanti Union around 1700. He built a capital, Kumasi, and created the legend of the Golden Stool to legitimize his rule. The throne became the symbol of Ashanti authority. By 1750 the Asante Empire was the largest and most powerful state in the region. The empire's wealth and prosperity was based on mining and trading in gold and trading in slaves. The Asante also became famous for woodcarvings, furniture, and their brightly coloured woven cloth, called 'kente'. The kingdom continued to expand until, under King Osei Bonsu (1801-1824), Asante territory covered nearly all of present-day Ghana.

    By the end of the 16 th Century, most ethnic groups constituting the modern Ghanaian population had settled in their present locations. Archaeological remains found in the coastal zone indicate that the area has been inhabited since the early Bronze Age (ca. 4000 B.C.), but these societies, based on fishing in the extensive lagoons and rivers, left few traces. Archaeological work also suggests that central Ghana north of the forest zone was inhabited as early as 3,000 to 4,000 years ago. Oral history and other sources suggest that the ancestors of some of Ghana's residents entered this area at least as early as the tenth century A.D. and that migration from the north and east continued thereafter.
    These migrations resulted in part from the formation and disintegration of a series of large states in the western Sudan (the region north of modern Ghana drained by the Niger River). Prominent among these Sudanic states was the Soninke Kingdom of Ancient Ghana. Strictly speaking, Ghana was the title of the King, but the Arabs, who left records of the Kingdom, applied the term to the King, the capital, and the state. The 9

    African People Are Incapable
    Of Migration
    by Keith W. Jones
    African people are incapable of migration. That is an idea that many scholars would still like to have us people of African descent believe. I find it disappointing that even today, as we transition to a new millennium, this concept is still being pushed, taught, and written about.
    The static African concept, as I call it, is implied in our literature, newspapers, and cinema, and is disseminated during television broadcasts. One possible result of this concept is that, being incapable of movement might be linked to being incapable of accomplishment. That is, if one cannot think well enough to move from one location to a better location, even though all of his or her muscles are fully functional, then how can one possibly think well enough to develop technology, which will make life easier for himself or herself.
    I believe that what is most psychologically damaging, though, for people of African descent, are the Eurocentric and ethnocentric falsehoods still disseminated in most of the textbooks used in schools today, by our children and young adults.
    Put another way, when African American children and young adults go to school, they still are taught and they still read about untruths regarding the lack of scientific, intellectual, and technological accomplishments made by people of African descent. These untruths are in addition to what these young people are learning about the so-called mental and intellectual inferiority of African peoples to other ethnic groups. However, I am getting ahead of myself.

    Who are ouest africans
    Ethnicity As Africa's peoples established themselves and diversified to local conditions, they developed distinctive cultures, oral traditions and oral art forms. Africa's hundreds of different ethnic groups are often defined by the language they speak, according to contemporary (especially Western) scholarly practice. Spoken African languages Indigenous to the continent are variously estimated to number from 700 to 3000. The major ethnic groups in West Africa are the Mandeng, Fulah, Yoruba, Haoussa, Ashanti and Cameron. From these derived several separate groups with cultural differences and minor linguistic variations. The group Yoruba for example, encompasses twenty-five separate groups each one culturally different from the next. The Berber and Touareg is the group found in the Sahara desert, the language and culture has a strong Arabic influence. There are numerous spoken languages in every West African country. However, the native languages of capital cities dominate the dialogue spoken by the majority. The official languages spoken are from the former Colonial master, French being spoken in more countries, followed by English and Portuguese. In the recent years some countries have started to develop and promote the writing of their main dialect, in order to accelerate their developing program. This way modern science and technology will reach the rural area were illiteracy is quite high.

    AFRICAN BIODIVERSITY SERIES Produced by the Biodiversity Support Program Number 1, May 1995 Indigenous vs. Introduced Biodiversity Conservation Strategies: The Case of Protected Area Systems in Ghana By Dr. Yaa Ntiamoa-Baidu INTRODUCTION Many countries in Africa have undergone rapid population growth; this, unfortunately, has not been matched with an equally rapid rate of development of appropriate technologies and management of natural resources that cater for the increasing demands on the resources. Concurrently, the traditional strategies for biodiversity conservation that have existed in African communities have gradually eroded. The result is extensive habitat destruction, degradation, and severe depletion of wildlife, with serious consequences for biodiversity conservation on the continent. Biodiversity is defined here as variety of life forms, measured in terms of biomes, ecosystems, species, and genetic varieties and the interactions between them. In the early 1900s, concern over rapid destruction of forests and dwindling wild animal populations in Ghana and other African countries led colonial administrators to introduce protected area systems based on western knowledge and values. Introduced protected area systems in Ghana comprise forest reserves and wildlife conservation areas (national parks, game production reserves, wildlife sanctuaries, and strict nature reserves). Control of these areas is vested in central government. A policy of externally enforced exclusion is pursued and no serious attempts are made to involve the local communities in the management of the protected areas. This situation, naturally, generates antagonism and often results in conflicts between local communities and wildlife/forestry officers.

      INTRODUCTION
      Humans occupied Africa before they occupied the Western world (i.e., Europe and North America), but it was westerners that developed and introduced electronic media in Africa. The central question I hope to answer is: how have electronic media affected Africa? But before getting into this question, I want to quickly address the question of why these innovations were introduced to Africans rather than developed by Africans. After all, Africans are, as a people, older than westerners, so the question presses: Why didn't Africans develop and introduce electronic media to Europeans, rather than vice versa? Jared Diamond(1999) attempts to answer this kind of question in his book Guns, Germs and Steel

    SUMMARY Well, because of our contact with Europeans, Christians, and Muslims as well as colonialism our cultures and traditions have been greatly affected and modified indigenous customs, institutions, and values. For example the office of local chief has had British influence for several generations, and by the time of independence in 1957, the British had exercised substantial political authority over certain southern regions for more than a century. The office of the chief, traditionally used to manage the affairs of the village community and the ethnic group, was retained by the British as one of the most important agencies through which the populace received colonial instructions. As the architect of the British colonial policy of indirect rule, Frederick Lugard argued in his Dual Mandate in British Tropical Afric that the preservation of the office of the traditional chief was cost- effective because it presented the appearance of continuity in the changing political environment.
