Respond to this Article October 2003 Jungle Book The foreign correspondent as thrill-seeker. By Joshua Hammer The battered Somali capital of Mogadishu was a playground for a certain type of foreign correspondent in the early 1990s. In the aftermath of the civil war that drove out the dictator Mohammed Siad Barre, a corps of young adventurers arrived on the scene to document the country's anarchy while inhaling its post-apocalyptic ambience. Hurtling along the sunswept coast in a battered Toyota filled with AK-47-toting bodyguards, with the turquoise Indian Ocean on one side and a sweep of bullet-scarred Arab villas on the other, one could feel like a star in one's own movie. As Aidan Hartley relates in The Zanzibar Chest: A Story of Life, Love, and Death in Foreign Lands , his dazzling new account of those years, Somalia's horror was inextricable from its allure. When American soldiers first arrived on the shores of the Somali capital in December 1992 to feed the starving, Hartley writes, they quickly found their way to the beautiful white-sand beaches along the Indian Ocean. Nobody had told them that the warm waters off Mogadishu had long been a dumping ground for offaland a breeding ground for sharks. The beach parties continued for several weeksuntil the attacks began. A young Frenchwoman bathing just off shore was torn in half before horrified onlookers, and a Russian wading in the surf was dragged to his death. The Marines erected a skull and crossbones "No Swimming" sign; Club Med Mogadishu quickly fizzled out.

Archives Education, indigenous knowledge and globalisation Gemma Burford, Lesikar Ole Ngila and Yunus Rafiki, Aang Serian Community College, Tanzania The interface between indigenous knowledge and globalisation: rewriting education for African realities - developing a model for the systematic integration of indigenous knowledge into formal and semi-formal education. As members of an organisation with the primary aim of promoting and preserving the traditional knowledge and cultures of Africa, we are concerned that the colonialist or early missionary mentality is still very much alive in societies that were once colonised. There is still a widely held view that anything associated with culture and hereditary values is pagan, and thus backward, as reflected by the vast number of urban Africans who feel embarrassed to associate themselves with their own cultural background. It is time for us to recognise this deeply rooted mentality as the product of a particular time and of specific policies in human history, and to acknowledge the limitations it imposes on our development, as well as its devastating effects on the natural environment. The majority of African youth still subscribe to the "American dream", and on a smaller scale, to the "urban dream". The growing trend towards urbanisation is encouraging thousands to abandon their indigenous knowledge, in the belief that new knowledge and new opportunities are to be found in town. Yet the realities of mass unemployment, the high costs of urban life and of further education, and the growing pandemic of AIDS testify that this is not the case. Many end up homeless, jobless and penniless, with neither the traditional skills that sustained their ancestors nor the specialised and expensive skills required for employment in a modern town. The inevitable result is poverty.

They settled into the area and began intermarrying with the local population The Muslim traders who came to the region were generally wealthy, and marrying into their families carried with it a great deal of prestige. Over time Islam and the Arabic language also became firmly established in the north. However, Islam spread quite slowly into the interior of the Sudan, only reaching the western and central regions around the fifteenth century. In the nineteenth century, Sudan fell under the colonial domination of Egypt and Britain. It gained independence in 1954.

Botswana, Malawi, Namibia and Zimbabwe have agreed on ways to exclude poached ivory from the market. These countries argue that their well-managed herds have become so big that regulated trade is in the best interests of the species and their economies. A recent aerial survey in Zimbabwe showed that there are 45,000 elephants in Hwange National Park alone, three times as many as the vegetation can support. The Southern Africa Centre for Ivory Marketing has agreed a system for marking legally-culled tusks: a self-adhesive strip with a hologram plus a bar code and a number. They hope that illegal traders and poachers will be unable to copy the official hologram on poached ivory.

You are here allRefer Reference Somalia History ... Somalia Somalia BREAKDOWN OF THE INFRASTRUCTURE The Somali environmentboth human and ecologicalhas deteriorated since the collapse of the state in early 1991. The consequent outbreak of intra- and interclan conflicts engulfed the peninsula in a catastrophic civil war that had claimed, by a conservative estimate, more than 200,000 Somali lives by early 1992. The cities of Mogadishu and Hargeysa had been reduced to rubble, with government buildings and homes looted or razed by gangs armed with assault rifles. Even telephone wires had been dug up, stolen, and exported for sale to the United Arab Emirates. In the fields of education and health, a sharp decline occurred and only minimal services continued to exist. Because of the destruction of schools and supporting services, a whole generation of Somalis faced the prospect of a return to illiteracy. Many people who had fled to the cities initially because of the civil war sought refuge in camps elsewhere, often refugee camps outside Somalia. More than one year of civil war had wiped out most of the intellectual and material progress of the preceding thirty years. In short, Somali society had retrogressed to a collection of warring clans reminiscent of preindustrial times. Enrico Cerulli's three-volume work

Having read the entire set over 50-60 times, I am still fascinated by new material I discover with each re-reading. It comes as no surprise that Sir Winston was awarded the NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE for this masterpiece. History in the hands of a fine writer, still very readable Because of his immense output, Winston Churchill may be described as an old-fashioned writer. Fortunately for us he does not read as such. There is very little archaic about the expressions he uses or the grammar he employs, in volume after volume after volume. It remains immensely readable, and this is the strength of a good writer, it seems to me. As a boy, Churchill was held up to me as an example of a person with a very full command of English. I was told, although I have never been able to verify it, that Churchill employed one of the largest vocabularies of any individual writing in English. It is ironic to think that, although the use of English is becoming ever more widespread, it is not generally being put to anything like the kind of use a man like Churchill made of it.

Course Outline C OURSE OVERVIEW We begin by looking at the base lines for African cultural evolution in the early coastal areas of South Africa, the Nile Valley and the Horn. Then, we examine the way that Islam became integrated into the Horn, West, East, Central, and Southern African societies, and the altered meaning of gender as these societies interacted with global realities and pressures. In the first half of the course, students are introduced to ethnographic texts and anthropological articles that frame issues in African culture above and below the Sahara. In the second half, we examine problems that being confronted and resolved as Africans respond to modern challenges, so we look at African responses to warfare, genocide, conflicting land claims, and apartheid. Questions are posed in several sections of the syllabus that are then explored using the ethnographies and articles that follow. The readings are designed to survey a range of cultural complexity in community, family, gender, health, political, legal, religious, and aesthetic institutions within Africa. Our examples cut across the six geographical regions of Africa North, the Horn, West, East, Central, and Southern. The issues covered include changing economic strategies of adaptation, the functions of philosophical and religious beliefs, gender hierarchies and identities, family structure and values, conceptualization of health and disease, political legitimacy and authority, and conflict versus accommodation.

Ayittey is an associate professor of economics at the American University and president of the Free Africa Foundation. His most recent book, Africa Betrayed (Cato and St. Martins, 1992), won the Mencken Award for best book of 1992. Executive Summary Somalia's societal breakdown and the famine that accompanied it were results of political and economic problems common to most sub-Saharan African countries. The U.S. and UN interventions in Somalia are unlikely to resolve the country's crisis because they do not offer solutions based on African initiatives. Indeed, dozens of UN and U.S. troops have already been killed by Somalis angry with those forces for trying to impose a settlement to Somalia's complex political disputes, and hundreds of Somalis have been killed in clashes with the occupying forces. That should not be surprising since outside attempts to resolve Africa's problems have regularly proven ineffective and even counterproductive. The chronic crises in Somalia and sub-Saharan Africa in general have been caused by a succession of repressive regimes and their disastrous domestic policies. Flawed economic and political models have led to dismal growth in per capita income, falling rates of food production, periodic famines, systematic disregard of basic liberties, institutionalized corruption, and ongoing civil wars.

Somalia Africa PEOPLE As early as the seventh century A.D., indigenous Cushitic peoples began to mingle with Arab and Persian traders who had settled along the coast. Interaction over the centuries led to the emergence of a Somali culture bound by common traditions, a single language, and the Islamic faith. Today, about 60% of all Somalis are nomadic or semi-nomadic pastoralists who raise cattle, camels, sheep, and goats. About 25% of the population are settled farmers who live mainly in the fertile agricultural zone between the Juba and Shebelle Rivers in southern Somalia. The remainder of the population (15%-20%) is urban. Sizable ethnic groups in the country include Bantu agricultural workers, several thousand Arabs and some hundreds of Indians and Pakistanis. Nearly all inhabitants speak the Somali language, which remained unwritten until October 1973, when the Supreme Revolutionary Council (SRC) proclaimed it the nation's official language and decreed an orthography using Latin letters. Somali is now the language of instruction in schools, to the extent that these exist. Arabic, English, and Italian also are used extensively. Nationality: NounSomali(s). AdjectiveSomali.
