Extractions: Now, as the face of South Africa changes yet again, we are witnessing the miracle of rebirth not only on the macro-level of a country in transformation, but also in many places which have been on the periphery in the past. Moffat Mission, with its ecumenical commitment, promises to be one such place, especially in rethinking what Christian mission means today, and in engaging in a praxis appropriate at this time in this the least of all the new nine provinces of a new South Africa. The recent inauguration of the Kalahari Desert School of Theology, however modest, and the attempt to develop a theological education appropriate for rural ministry centred here, suggests how appropriate it is that we should be gathered here to reflect on the viability of ecumenical ministerial formation in Africa today. Although ministry in urban settlements is an urgent priority, we dare not neglect the needs of rural society, indeed, the two need to be considered in tandem. Thus we gather here in this rural setting from various parts of the continent which have received the gospel from the missionaries, many of whom passed through this place en route to their particular destinations. We come to consider our respective experiences of Christian faith in relation to the ambiguous legacy which they have left in order to contribute to the global task of ecumenical theological formation in a new era. What can we share with the ecumenical church from our particular locations in Africa and out of our own African experience, and what can we, in return, learn from others who participate in this process of reflection on the viability of theological education today?

PEOPLE AND SOCIETY The 1991 Uganda census counted 16,671,705 people. By 1998 the population had grown to an estimated 22.2 million Ugandans, giving the country a population density of 92 per sq km (238 per sq mi). The estimated growth rate of the population in 1998 was 2.8 percent. The birth rate was 49 per 1,000 people and the death rate 19 per 1,000. Life expectancy at birth was 42.6 years. The fertility rate, the number of births per woman, was 7.1. Almost all Ugandans are black Africans. Foreign residents make up less than 4 percent of the population and come mostly from neighboring states. The population is concentrated in the south, particularly in the crescent at the edge of Lake Victoria and in the southwest. Uganda is predominantly rural with only 13 percent of the population living in urban areas. Kampala, near Lake Victoria, is Uganda's intellectual and business center and its only city. Jinja, the most important industrial center, is located on the Nile at Lake Victoria. The next largest towns are Mbale, Masaka, Mpigi, and Mbarara. A. Ethnicity and Language (

Extractions: Estimates of the number of children being exploited for military purposes are inevitably only approximations. Nonetheless, from studies conducted by the International NGOs Coalition in 24 countries worldwide, it appears that more than 300 000 children, both boys and girls, are being used as soldiers, saboteurs, spies, carriers, "wives" and general camp-followers. Whether children enlisted of their own free will or were forcibly conscripted, their involvement in armed conflict presents quite obvious dangers. Not only are young people ill-equipped to cope with the physical dangers they encounter, but their immaturity poses an additional threat to the safety of other combatants. Although less obvious, the long-term social consequences are possibly even more harmful. Children taken from their families and communities are deprived of the normal processes of socialisation and education, and, when peace returns, there is little hope of veterans being successfully reintegrated into society. Instead, the child brutalised in its formative years is primed to perpetuate a cycle of killing and lawlessness. As a result, entire generations have been written off as "lost". 1 Culture, Tradition and Human Rights

Extractions: Sally Falk Moore, " Certainties undone : fifty turbulent years of legal anthropology, 1949-1999 ", The Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute To be published also in Transnational Legal Processes edited by Michael Likosky, Butterworth What legal domains have anthropologists examined in the fifty years we are considering? How much have their topics changed ? How much do the changes in topic reflect the shifting political background of the period ? The big picture is simple enough. What was once a sub-field of anthropology largely concerned with law in non-Western society has evolved to encompass a much larger legal geography. Not only does legal anthropology now study industrial countries, but it has expanded from the local to national and transnational legal matters. Its scope includes international treaties, the legal underpinnings of transnational commerce, the field of human rights, diasporas and migrants, refugees and prisoners, and other situations not easily captured in the earlier community-grounded conception of anthropology , though the rich tradition of local studies continues along a separate and parallel track.

Although both Ryukyu and Nansei describe the same set of islands, they differ in terms of political connotation. The word Ryukyu Ryukyu was used extensively. At this point, obviously, it was in America's best interests to play up the fact that Okinawa had not always been an integral part of Japan. The three smaller administrative areas are Kagawa Prefecture (1,883 km sq.), Osaka Metropolitan District (1,869 km sq.), and Tokyo Capital District (2,166 km sq.). The latter being the subject of a sovereignty dispute between Japan, China, and Taiwan In terms of total land area Okinawa Prefecture is only marginally smaller than the Autonomous Region of the Azores (2,333 square kilometres), but has in excess of five times the Azorean population. Okinawa Prefecture and the Azores are both small island groups geographically distant from the main body politic (Japan and Portugal, respectively), though in the case of the Azores this condition is more pronounced.

Extractions: Archbishop's Charge Greeting My brothers of the House of Bishops, members of the House of Clergy and the House of Laity, distinguished guests and honoured representatives of sister churches, ladies and gentlemen; I greet and welcome you to this twenty-ninth session of the Provincial Synod. Grace and Peace to you all from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. THEME - JOURNEY TO WHOLENESS The theme of this session of Synod is Journey to Wholeness. It arises from God's invitation to all creation to discover its unity and wholeness in God. There is so much brokenness and woundedness in our communities. Many people carry scars from wounds inflicted by colonial rule of the nineteenth century, the past hundred years of racially structured economic, social and political policies, the breakdown of family life, lack of respect for the sanctity of human life and the destruction of the environment. There is a yearning for wholeness. As St Paul puts it in Romans 8:22: We are well aware that the whole creation, until this time, has been groaning in labour pains: And not only that, we too, who have the first-fruits of the spirit, even we are groaning inside ourselves, waiting for our bodies to be set free. This theme, "Journey to Wholeness" permeates every aspect of our work during this session of Synod, from our bible studies, to our worship; from the resolutions we will consider to the conference of synod planned for later this week. It will also be relevant for our work beyond this synod as we seek to co-operate with God in the fulfilment of God's mission in the world.

Extractions: Dear Friends, We received an interesting short essay on the Nordic ideology in Iceland, Danemark and the Faeroe Islands from Vibeke Ostergaard. This essay allows us here far away on the continent to understand better the points of view of Scandinavians in front of the main topics of political life (as freedom, representation, democracy, etc.) and how they endeavour to defend their jeopardized identity. The text of Vibeke Ostergaard can also help many French readers from Normandy or elsewhere to complete their documentation, that they could start to collect by reading some key texts of Jean Mabire about the Scandinavian literary world (among others, his monography of the Danish romantic author Grundvigt in "Les éveilleurs de peuple" and his well-coined short monographies of Scandinavian authors in the weekly paper "National Hebdo" - these monographies are assembled in the six volumes of "Que lire?" that we warmly recommend as a good introduction to literary topics).

Critics of apartheid often blame Christians for its existence claiming that racial oppression in South Africa is the fruit of Christianity. How are Christians to respond? This annotated bibliography is an attempt to remind the Christian community that the question of the relationship between Christianity and apartheid is hardly new, that already a large literature exists dealing with the subject. It is written in the hope that Christians who are truly concerned about South Africa will pause before rushing into print and will acknowledge the work of others before them. It is also written to draw the attention of the Christian community to writers who have al ready struggled with what is one of the most pressing issues of today. Few people have the time to study the South African situation in detail. They therefore need to know where to find up-to-date and reliable materials that will give them an overall picture. A good place to begin is Leo Marquards

Extractions: Uganda is a republic in eastern Africa, bounded on the north by Sudan, on the east by Kenya, on the south by Tanzania and Rwanda, and on the west by the Domcratic Republic of Cong o ; it is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations. Uganda has an area of 241,139 sq km (about 93,104 sq mi). Kampala is the capital and largest city. The area of Uganda includes Lake George and Lake Kyoga; parts of Lake Victoria, Lake Edward, and Lake Albert; and the Nile River from its outlet at Lake Victoria to Nimule on the Sudan frontier. The land surface is remarkably diversified, with elevated plains, vast forests, low swamps, arid depressions, and snowcapped peaks, the highest of which is Margherita Peak (5109 m/16,762 ft) in the Ruwenzori Range in the southwest. Much of the south is forested, and most of the north is covered with savanna. Despite being located along the equator, Uganda has a mild, equable climate, mainly because of its relatively high altitude. The temperature ranges from about 16° to 29° C (about 60° to 85° F). The average annual rainfall varies from some 760 mm (some 30 in) in the northeast to about 1520 mm (about 60 in) near Lake Victoria. Uganda's most important natural resource is its rich soil, which provides the basis for the diverse agricultural economy of the country. In addition, Uganda has exploitable deposits of gold, copper, tin, and tungsten and ample waterpower resources for producing hydroelectricity.
