26-31 August, 1994 Mahatma Gandhi Institute, Moka, Mauritius THE CONCEPT OF MAURITIAN STUDIES The Mahatma Gandhi Institute was founded in 1970 by the Government of Mauritius in collaboration with the Indian Government. The institute aims to provide the academic and cultural basis for the promotion, consolidation, and dissemination of the Indian traditions and contribute to a developing Mauritian culture by creating an awareness of the richness of the Mauritian heritage and by providing a forum for a creative interaction between its diverse components. Besides this, the Mahatma Gandhi Institute develops teaching and research programmes in the focal areas of the institute, namely Indian Studies, Performing Arts, Fine Arts, Mauritian Studies, and Chinese Studies, thus contributing to an extension of the frontier of the Tertiary Education Institution Network. By U. Bissoondoyal and P. Dhayam The Mahatma Gandhi Institute today comprises the faculty of Indian Studies, faculty of Indian Music and Fine Arts, and the Centre of Mauritian and Other Area Studies. Since 1984, in an attempt to create an awareness of the richness of the world heritage of which Mauritius is the beneficiary, the Mahatma Gandhi Institute has been organizing conferences on events and subjects that have had an over-riding effect on Mauritian society. The topics of these conferences have been: Indian Labour Immigration (1984), Slavery in the South-West of the Indian Ocean (1985), L'Ile Maurice et La R‚volution Fran‡aise (1989), Maintenance of Indian Languages and Culture Abroad (1994). Although research in Mauritian Studies had been under way for some time, an urgent need was felt to define its areas of action, establish it as an area of research, and eventually of teaching, and to network the research action of the institutions in Mauritius as well as abroad. The seminar on the 'Concept of Mauritian Studies' that was held August 26-31, 1994 was attended by scholars from the U.S.A., France, India, the Netherlands, Australia, La R‚union, South Africa, Trinidad, and more than thirty Mauritian researchers. The seminar offered a platform for scholars to make their scientific contribution and give practical suggestions for the definition and organization of Mauritian Studies. At the logistical level a plea was made for more national and international cooperation between various scholars and institutions working on the Indian Ocean in general and Mauritius in particular. REGIONAL APPROACH Defining and developing Mauritian Studies as an Area Studies Programme poses a lot of problems because it is extremely difficult to limit the scope of the programme at a regional level since the origin of the population of Mauritius is very diverse. It is a creation of European hegemonic powers. The Dutch, French, and English imported African and Malagasy slaves as well as indentured labourers from India and China. Since the population of Mauritius thus has its origin on four continents it is not advisable to limit Mauritian Studies to a certain region. Professor Cowan from the University of California held an expos‚ on the experience with the organization of American Studies in the United States, since the ancestors of the Americans are just as diverse as those of the Mauritians. He promoted the idea of structuring Mauritian Studies according to an thematic programme instead of a regional one. The same plea was made by Professor Haraksingh of the University of the West Indies. He spoke of the evolution of Caribbean Studies and brought forward a comparative reference for Mauritian Studies. In this light, he gave the example of the striking similarities in history and current composition of the Trinidadian and Mauritian population. Professor Kenneth McPherson, executive director of the Indian Ocean Centre for Peace Studies also said he was aware of the problems of confining Mauritian Studies in a narrow regional manner. Despite this, he pointed out the need to integrate Mauritius more into Indian Ocean Studies. This would not only eliminate the relatively isolated position of Mauritius, but also aid more regional cooperation between the islands in the South-West Indian Ocean. The study of Mauritius can also lead to a better understanding of the processes of globalization. Globalization and Mauritius was also the theme of the lecture of Professor Houbert of the University of Aberdeen. He sees the population of Mauritius as a visualization of globalization: Mauritius is universally acclaimed for its modern democratic state and its capitalistic mode of production. The modern state as part of the worldwide system of states and the global reach of capitalism are the two outstanding features of the modern world. Unlike the other countries surrounding the Indian Ocean, Mauritius is entirely a creation of the process of globalization. THEMES OF MAURITIAN STUDIES In different lectures scholars made clear that a regional organization of Mauritian Studies did not seem useful. A thematic approach appears more fruitful. Many themes were already discussed during the seminar. As there were papers on: languages, economy, history, literature, the press, development, slavery, legacy of slavery, administration, politics, education, health, immigration/migration, anthropology, geography, and related fields. In the concluding formal and informal sessions, the scholars agreed on the following two themes as guiding lines for developing an agenda for future research on Mauritius: Research into the colonial history of Mauritius, focusing not only on the immigration history of Indian and Chinese indentured labourers but also on the African past: the slave trade and slavery. Another focal point of future studies will be research into the dynamics of cultural/ethnic identities in the specific plural context of Mauritius. During the Seminar many local scholars presented their research on this theme. In this area of research it is particularly important to develop a research approach from a interdisciplinary level: historians, linguists, and anthropologists should work together to be able to grasp the meaning and the political and social implications of Mauritius as a multi-cultural society fully. Mr U. Bissoondoyal and Mr P. Dhayam are respectively the director and the administrative officer at the Mahatma Ghandi institute

From the Regional Oral History Office
Berkeley Anthropologists Have Their Say
Anthropologist Elizabeth Colson doesn't often think of the past. If asked, however, she easily recalls the year 1946, when she first traveled to Africa. Taking field supplies from Johannesburg, she and two other researchers journeyed for three days to Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia). There she met a fellow anthropologist, J. Desmond Clark. "Desmond somehow knew we were coming, and he met our train," she says. Colson, an American from Minnesota, and Clark, a Londoner, crossed paths that year when she became senior research officer and then director of the Rhodes- Livingstone Institute. He was curator of the David Livingstone Memorial Museum. "With Desmond, of course, prehistory was everything," Colson says, "although as curator of the museum he had to be interested in contemporary things, too." Desmond Clark's death in February 2002 ended this friendship of more than half a century. But the stories survive. Clark, Colson, and three other anthropologists recently documented their experiences through oral histories. Available as manuscripts and on the Web, the interviews complement Bancroft's other holdings in anthropology, archaeology, and linguistics. As told in the oral histories, Colson and Clark each spent substantial time in Africa, directing institutions and lighting up the developing field of anthropology with their work. While he pursued prehistory, she explored social-cultural issues among the Plateau and Gwembe Tonga. Both joined the Berkeley faculty in the 1960s.

76. Speech To The National Assembly Of The Republic Of Mauritius
That this is not some distant intellectual exercise, or a matter of mere convenience,is clear from the role of mauritius in regional and continental affairs.

Speech by President Mandela to the National Assembly of the Republic of Mauritius
Port Louis, 12 September 1998 Mr. Speaker
Honourable Members of the National Assembly of Mauritius
Ladies and Gentlemen
It is a great honour and a privilege to have the opportunity to address the representatives of the Mauritius nation Yesterday, when we laid a wreath at Samadhi, it was deeply moving to see the symbols with which the Mauritian people have chosen to represent their nationhood. The bold affirmation of ties with the four main civilisations - African, Chinese, European and Indian) - which form the core of a nation which nonetheless has its own distinct Mauritian identity, is an inspiration to all South Africans. In a world in which new forms of discrimination and prejudice are emerging and generating violence and insecurity in many parts of the world, this proud celebration of unity in diversity is a beacon of hope. It is consistent with the solidarity of the Mauritian people with our struggle. With your help, and that of the international community as a whole, we have ended a system that used the diversity of South Africans to pit one against the other and deny the majority their basic rights. As we build a new nation out of the rich tapestry of our cultures, we are committed to realising those principles of tolerance and mutual respect and unity which your nation represents.

History of the membership The continent's position as a crossroads between the Americas, Europe and Asia also lays it open to transnational crimes such as traffic in weapons, illicit drug trafficking, illegal immigration, traffic in stolen motor vehicles and fraud, which can only be stopped by international co-operation. Seeking and locating the criminals involved poses problems relating to information exchange, international identification and arrests with a view to extradition. This is why Interpol-in accordance with Article 2 (1) of its Constitution-ensures the closest possible co-operation between the criminal police authorities of all member countries, including those in Africa. Crime is not associated with a particular region and is certainly not a problem for Africa alone. Ever since it was established, the International Criminal Police Organization - Interpol has been seen by countries all over the world as an institution whose principles and objectives correspond to universal aspirations for human rights, public safety and the fight against ordinary law crime.
