Van Doorn ii EDITORIAL POLICY African Studies Abstracts Online provides an overview of articles from periodicals and edited works on sub-Saharan Africa in the field of the social sciences and the humanities available in the African Studies Centre library. Coverage African Studies Abstracts Online covers edited works (up to 50 in each issue) and a wide range of journals in the field of African studies. Some 240 journals are systematically scanned. Just over half of these are English-language journals, just under a quarter are French, and most of the rest are German. A few Afrikaans, Dutch, Italian and Portuguese-language journals are also covered. Some 40 percent of all the journals are published in Africa. Newspapers and weeklies, popular magazines and current affairs bulletins, statistical digests, directories, annual reports and newsletters are, with rare exceptions, not scanned. Articles from journals published in Africa and from leading Africanist journals published outside the continent are provided with abstracts. Articles from other journals, including journals on North Africa, are catalogued and indexed without abstracts. All articles are included in the African Studies Centre Library OPAC at http://opc4-ascl.pica.nl/DB=3/LNG=EN/ To be selected for abstracting/indexing an article must be at least two to three pages long, and have been published within the past two years (though some allowance is made for journals which have fallen behind on publication schedules or which, for whatever reason, have taken a long time to arrive). In a few specific cases, an article may be excluded on the grounds of subject. In particular, articles in the field of linguistics and those in the field of literature dealing with only one work are normally not selected. This also applies to purely descriptive articles covering current political events or economic developments, which could be expected to become quickly outdated, though this rule is applied less rigorously in the case of a country about which very little is otherwise published. Review articles and book reviews are not covered. Contents and arrangement In principle African Studies Abstracts Online is published four times a year. Each issue contains up to 450 titles with abstracts of collective volumes and journal articles. Items are numbered sequentially and arranged geographically according to the broad regions of Africa. There is a preliminary general section for entries whose scope extends beyond iii Africa, followed by a separate section for entries dealing with the continent as a whole. There is also a section for entries dealing with sub-Saharan Africa. Within the broad geographical regions of Northeast, West, West Central, East, Southeast Central and Southern Africa and the Indian Ocean islands, entries are arranged by country, and within each country, alphabetically according to author. Entries covering two countries appear twice, once under each country heading. Entries covering three or more countries are generally classified under the relevant regional heading. Each entry provides the conventional bibliographical information together with an abstract in the language of the original document. The abstract covers the essentials of the publication in 10-20 lines. It includes a description of subject and purpose, disciplinary approach, nature of the research and source materials (fieldwork, archives, oral traditions, etc.). Where applicable an indication of the time period, specific geographical information (such as names of towns, villages or districts), as well as the names of persons, languages and ethnic groups, are also included. Indexes and list of sources Each issue of African Studies Abstracts Online contains a geographical index, a subject index, and an author index, all referring to abstract number. The geographical index is at a region and country level. It refers to both abstract and page number, and for some may serve as a surrogate table of contents. The subject index is self-devised and is intended as a first and global indication of subjects. It follows roughly the main classes of the UDC, with categories for general, religion and philosophy, culture and society, politics, economics, law, education, anthropology, medical care and health services, rural and urban planning and geography, language and literature, and history and biography. Each category is further subdivided into a number of subcategories. Abstracts of items included under more than one country heading are indexed in the geographical index under each country. In the subject and author indexes they are indexed only once; the reference is always to the first time an entry appears. In addition, each issue of African Studies Abstracts Online contains a list of periodicals abstracted which provides information on title, current place of publication and ISSN of all periodicals from which articles have been selected, as well as indicating which issues of the periodical in question have been covered. A complete list of all periodicals regularly scanned for abstracting or indexing is available on the African Studies Centre website at: http://www.ascleiden.nl/Library/Abstracts/ As always, comments or suggestions are very welcome. iv GEOGRAPHICAL INDEX abstract number page INTERNATIONAL General 1-6 14 AFRICA General 7-60 18 NORTHEAST AFRICA Eritrea 61-62 50 Ethiopia 63-72 51 Somalia 73 57 Sudan 74-75 57 AFRICA SOUTH OF THE SAHARA General 76-96 59 WEST AFRICA General 97-101 71 Benin 102-103 74 Ghana 104-116 75 Guinea 117-118 82 Ivory Coast 119-120 83 Liberia 121 84 Mali 122-125 84 Niger 126 87 Nigeria 127-153 87 Senegal 154-155 102 Togo 156 103 WEST CENTRAL AFRICA General 157 104 Angola 158-160 105 Cameroon 161-167 106 Congo (Brazzaville) 168 110 Congo (Kinshasa) 169-182 111 1 GEOGRAPHICAL INDEX abstract number page Gabon 183 119 EAST AFRICA General 184-185 119 Kenya 186-193 121 Rwanda 194-197 125 Tanzania 198-203 128 Uganda 204-209 131 SOUTHEAST CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN AFRICA General 210 134 SOUTHEAST CENTRAL AFRICA Malawi 211-215 135 Zambia 216 138 Zimbabwe 217-241 138 SOUTHERN AFRICA General 242-245 151 Botswana 246-253 153 Lesotho 254-255 158 Namibia 256-259 159 South Africa 260-305 161 ISLANDS Comoros 306 184 Mauritius 307 185 2 SUBJECT INDEX A.

  • Experiences of Enslavement in West Central Africa
    Experiences of Enslavement in West Central Africa JOSE´ C. CURTO* From the early 1500s to 1830, enslavement emerged as a pervasive feature through- out much of West Central Africa. Millions of individuals were captured, with many destined for the Atlantic slave trade and others for internal servitude. The demands of the slave trade encouraged a proliferation of violence and insecurity as captives were obtained through warfare and raids, individual kidnapping and betrayal, and an assortment of other coercive means. All kinds of people underwent this experience, even those who theoretically could not legally be enslaved; similarly, people from numerous backgrounds were attracted to the gains to be had from enslaving others. Although some victims were eventually successful in claiming their free status, for many the only consolation lay in the fact that not a few of their captors would ultimately experience a similar fate. Du de´but des anne´es 1500 jusqu’en 1830, l’esclavage a marque´ de son omnipre´sence la quasi-totalite´ de l’Afrique occidentale et centrale. Des millions de personnes ont e´te´ enleve´es, beaucoup pour la filie`re atlantique et d’autres pour la filie`re inte´rieure de l’esclavage. La traite des esclaves a stimule´ la prolife´ration de la violence et de l’inse´curite´ puisque les enle`vements se faisaient au moyen de guerres, de raids, de kidnappings, de trahisons et d’une panoplie d’autres moyens coercitifs. Des per- sonnes de toutes sortes ont ve´cu cette expe´rience, meˆme celles qu’il e´tait, en the´orie, interdit d’asservir.

  • The Expansion of Slavery in Benguela During the Nineteenth Century
    IRSH (), pp. – doi:./S © Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis The Expansion of Slavery in Benguela During the Nineteenth Century M ARIANA P. CANDIDO Department of History, University of Notre Dame O’Shaughnessy, Notre Dame, IN USA E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: This article explores the nature and expansion of slavery in Benguela, in West Central Africa, during the nineteenth century, engaging with the scholarship on second slavery. Robert Palmer, Eric Hobsbawm, and Janet Polasky have framed the nineteenth century as the age of contagious liberty, yet, in Benguela, and elsewhere along the African coast, the institution of slavery expanded, in part to attend to the European and North American demand for natural resources. In the wake of the end of the slave trade, plantation slavery spread along the African coast to supply the grow- ing demand in Europe and North America for cotton, sugar, and natural resources such as wax, ivory, rubber, and gum copal. In Portuguese territories in West Central Africa, slavery remained alive until , when enslaved people were put into systems of apprenticeship very similar to labor regimes elsewhere in the Atlantic world. For the thousands of people who remained in captivity in Benguela, the nineteenth century continued to be a moment of oppression, forced labor, and extreme violence, not an age of abolition. After the abolition of slave exports, local merchants and recently arrived immi- grants from Portugal and Brazil set up plantations around Benguela making extensive use of unfree labor. In this article, I examine how abolition, colonialism, and economic exploitation were part of the same process in Benguela, which resulted in new zones of slavery responding to industrialization and market competition.

    ÖBKT JAAROVERZICHT 1987 DEELl .RAAD VAN BEHEER .RADIO .TELEVISE Jaaroverzicht 1987. TEN GELEIDE In 1987 heeft de BRT voor zichzelf duidelijk willen uitmaken wat de taak van de openbare omroep in Vlaanderen voor de ko­ mende jaren moet zijn, en wat er nodig is om in vergelijking met vergelijkbare omroepen uit het vergelijkbare buitenland een behoorlijk figuur te slaan. Daarvoor werden realistisch geachte vijfjarenplannen opgesteld. De BRT bereidde zich op de uitdaging van de toekomst voor. Uitgaande van de meest gangbare filosofie terzake en zich gesteund voelend door krachtdadige uitspraken van gezagheb­ bende instanties die een goed functionerende en adequaat ge­ financierde openbare omroep als een conditio sine qua non voor grondige wijzigingen in het mediabestel beschouwen, heeft de BRT gemeend te moeten stellen dat een fatsoenlijke invulling van zijn informerende, vormende en ontspannende opdracht een minimaal bedrag van 7,5 miljard Bfr. vereist, wat toevallig overeenkomt met 75 % van het momenteel in Vlaanderen geïnde kijk- en luistergeld. In 1987 kreeg de BRT daar 52 % van. (Ter illustratie : de Deense omroep DR, werkend voor een bevolking die ongeveer even groot is als de Vlaamse, maar met bijna 1000 tv-uren en 10.000 radio-uren minder dan de BRT, beschikte over bijna tweemaal het inkomen van de BRT). De Nederlandse omroep heeft een budget van ingeveer 20 miljard frank; de BRT beschikt over 5,4 miljard om ook twee tv- netten en vijf radionetten te vullen. Toch is de BRT er jaar na jaar in geslaagd zonder deficit te eindigen. Het budget werd met uiterste zorg beheerd. Van de Doorlichting, die gevraagd was om na te gaan of de BRT zijn mensen en middelen wel efficiënt genoeg gebruikt, werd het eindrapport in maart 1987 ingediend.
