Softcover: 195 FF
Illustrated with objects and antique photographs, this catalogue, which has been published in conjunction with an exhibition organized by the city of Boulogne-Billancourt in France and the Caixa Foundation of Girona in Spain, addresses the art of the Plains Indians in all its originality and diversity. It includes essays by five French and Spanish authors who are specialists in Native American history and culture. Their studies explore the history of the Plains Indians, the role of women, religion, and the central importance of Vision in their culture. Although the Plains Indians created no monumental art and little sculpture, their artistic creations such as headdresses and ceremonial garments, horse trappings, weapons, and ritual objects survive as testimony to a unique and rich philosophy of life.

Yourba Spiritual System and Philosophy
There are various religious systems in Africa that share many commonalties. To discuss them all in their intricacies would take volumes. This page will attempt to focus on the Yoruba spiritual philosophy of West Africa. It stresses an extremely ancient rooted African tradition of working with natural forces and the ancestral realm to better one's life. Its system of divination in fact has led some scholars to remark on its similarity to Eastern philosophical beliefs such as those found among the Chinese in the I Ching. And while it may not be as ancient as Nilotic beliefs, it is the African spiritual system that can be best called a world religion.

Map showing strong centers of Yoruba belief

The Yoruba believe in the existence of spiritual beings or divinities. Called Orishas, they are seen as emissaries of Oldumare from whom they emanated. These Orisha are ancestors whose great deeds earned them divinity. The Orisha are said to recognize themselves and are recognized through a host of different numbers and colors. These polarities which each Orisha exhibits are expressed as personalities called Roads or Paths of the Orisha. This is done through offerings to Orisha of their particular favorite foods and other gifts. One can learn much about these different Orishas by watching the forces of nature at work about you. These Orishas can be contacted during a "bembe" where one or more of their priests will be mounted in a form of highly spiritualized trance possession. This possession by an Orisha is an integral part of Yoruba religious ritual as it serves as a means of communicating with the forces of Oldumare (God).

10 March to 18 April 1997

By Jan Bauer, Article 19
Africa
Burundi Congo (Zaire) Equatorial Guinea
Liberia
... Sudan
Burundi
Overview
Substantive issues
The interim report to the 1996 General Assembly reflects the findings of a field mission by the Special Rapporteur from 1 to 17 July 1996, one week before the coup that brought Major Pierre Buyoya to power and led to the temporary suspension of the National Assembly and political parties. The assessment is clear, with the report stating that the conditions identified in previous reports ... have been deteriorating markedly. The human rights situation in Burundi has assumed catastrophic proportions, with its endless stream of targeted assassinations, arbitrary arrests, forced disappearances, looting, crime and the destruction of private property. While it is true that Burundi currently is being torn apart by civil war, it should be noted at the outset that the resulting violence and unrest can be attributed to certain actors or parties: first and foremost to the armed forces and the security forces, next, to the militias, which are related to them, and, lastly, to an armed opposition that itself comprises various groups. All these actors are responsible, although to varying degrees, for the grave violations of human rights and international humanitarian law which are being perpetrated.

Makerere University, Uganda
'Hausa' is a linguistic not an ethnic term and refers to those who speak the Hausa language by birth. Many people (groups) whose sole language is Hausa have little or nothing in common ethnically. It is impossible to give a simple definition of a Hausa person because different criteria is used, either historical claims, cultural traits or social values. So Hausa will be defined as those who historically issued from Hausa land or their descendents through the male line or those who became closely associated with Hausa culture by adapting its language, customs and religion. 1 Hausa land is situated in the Savannah region of West Africa and stretches about 1,500 miles to the west and 2,000 miles to the East occupying the region between Lake Chad in the east and middle Nigeria in the west. 2
The Hausas are not a mono-ethnic group nor are they the only inhabitants of the region. The bulk of the inhabitants were believed to have migrated into the region some time before the 10th century from the central Sahara, perhaps due to desiccation or some such natural phenomenon. They settled in the central Savanna and mixed with the indigenous people. The result was a multi-ethnic society sharing a common language, Hausa. This heterogeneity further facilitated the absorption of other ethnic groups that arrived subsequently. When the Fulani reached the Hausa land early in the 15th Century, those who settled in towns lost not only their nomadic feature but also their native language. 3

  • (1) INTRODUCTION
  • (2) THE RIGHT OF SELF-DETERMINATION UNDER INTERNATIONAL LAW
    (1) INTRODUCTION
    This paper seeks to examine the right of self-determination under international law and its relevance to the struggle for independence in the Angolan enclave of Cabinda. The right of self-determination has been grabbing the spotlight in recent years. The end of the Cold War ushered in sweeping changes in Eastern and Southeastern Europe. The right of self-determination under international law has been acting as a midwife to the birth of new nation states. These kinds of changes have not been limited just to Europe. In Africa, too, the right of self-determination has received a good deal of attention these past ten years. The success stories have been widely reported. That is, Namibia finally became independent in 1990 after years of South African occupation and domination. In 1993, Eritrea managed to secede from Ethiopia after more than thirty years of struggle. South Africa itself saw its first free and full elections in 1994 after apartheid had begun to crumble around 1989. Most of the current or remaining struggles for independence on the continent, however, receive little attention, at least outside of their respective regions. For example, Ethiopia's Oromo people, presumably encouraged by the success of Eritrea

The first use of the word ‘Salsa’, to describe the contemporary form, is attributed to a Venezuelan radio DJ in 1966. To understand the colourful diversity of the music, however, the story of its development must be traced back more than two thousand years to its beginnings in the complex cultural history of modern Spain!
2 : Celts to 1500 : The making of modern Spain - a brief history The indigenous Neolithic Celtic tribes of the Iberian peninsular were over-run firstly by the Romans before the time of Christ. This empire was already breaking up when in 383AD Magnus Maximus, ruler of Britain at the time, declared himself Emperor and crossed the Channel to conquer Gaul and Spain. In 388 he was defeated and killed at Aquileia.
The Roman Empire continued to be over-run by fierce, marauding barbarians from Northern and Eastern Europe. By 425, Spain was being settled by Vandals, in the South, and by Suevi and Visigoths, in the North. Today’s Basque peoples, with a language more akin to modern Hungarian than Spanish, may well be descended from these early migrants.
The ‘Eastern’ Roman, or Byzantine Empire (Byzantium-Constantinople-Istanbul) grew strong from this time, driving the Vandals from North Africa in 534 and the Goths from Italy in 552. This paved the way for a migration of Turkish tribes, from the Balkans, across the region bringing the influences of Romany music to Spain. Check out the guitar jazz of Django Reinhart or, in more popular idiom, The Gypsy Kings.
