Independence brought to an end one of the most intractable and wasteful conflicts in the region. With independence, the people of Namibia not only gained political freedom, but set out on the challenging task of building a nation and defining their relations with the world. From the perspective of mediation, the role of the international community in bringing about Namibia's independence in general, and that of the United Nations in particular, was of a deep structural nature.

  • Seventh E.V. Komarek, Sr. Memorial Fire Ecology Lecture Fire—A Key Factor in the Ecology and Management of African Grasslands and Savannas
    SEVENTH E.V. KOMAREK, SR. MEMORIAL FIRE ECOLOGY LECTURE FIRE—A KEY FACTOR IN THE ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT OF AFRICAN GRASSLANDS AND SAVANNAS Winston S.W. Trollope1 University of Fort Hare, Private Bag X1314, Alice 5700, South Africa Winston S.W. Trollope Seventh E.V. Komarek, Sr. Memorial Fire Ecology Lecturer ABSTRACT Fire is regarded as a natural ecological factor of the environment that has been occurring since time immemorial in savannas and grasslands on the continent of Africa. The African continent is highly prone to lightning storms and has an ideal fire climate with dry and wet periods. It also has the most extensive area of tropical savanna on the earth, characterized by a grassy understory that becomes extremely flammable during the dry season. The use of fire in the management of vegetation for both domestic livestock systems and wildlife is widely recognized. Research on the effects of fire has been conducted throughout the grasslands and savannas of Africa since the early 20th century, and has focused on the effects of season and frequency of burning on forage production potential of the grass sward and the ratio of bush to grass in African savannas. In 1971, a conference was held in the United States by Tall Timbers Research Station in Tallahassee, Florida, on the theme ‘‘Fire in Africa.’’ This congress was attended by fire ecologists from throughout Africa. A major benefit that accrued from this meeting was the realization that in Africa the study of fire behavior and its effects on the ecosystem, as described by type and intensity of fire, had been largely ignored in the fire research.

  • Luregn Lenggenhager Nature Conservation, Development And
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2018 Ruling nature, controlling people: nature conservation, development and war in North-Eastern Namibia since the 1920s Lenggenhager, Luregn Abstract: Recent nature conservation initiatives in Southern Africa such as communal conservancies and peace parks are often embedded in narratives of economic development and ecological research. They are also increasingly marked by militarisation and violence. In Ruling Nature, Controlling People, Luregn Lenggenhager shows that these features were also characteristic of South African rule over the Caprivi Strip region in North-Eastern Namibia, especially in the fields of forestry, fisheries and, ulti- mately, wildlife conservation. In the process, the increasingly internationalised war in the region from the late 1960s until Namibia’s independence in 1990 became intricately interlinked with contemporary nature conservation, ecology and economic development projects. By retracing such interdependencies, Lenggenhager provides a novel perspective from which to examine the history of a region which has until now barely entered the focus of historical research. He thereby highlights the enduring relevance of the supposedly peripheral Caprivi and its military, scientific and environmental histories for efforts to develop a deeper understanding of the ways in which apartheid South Africa exerted state power.

  • The Khwe and West Caprivi Before Namibian Independence: Matters of Land, Labour, Power and Alliance Gertrud Boden
    Journal of Namibian Studies, 5 (2009): 27–71 ISSN: 1863-5954 The Khwe and West Caprivi before Namibian independence: Matters of land, labour, power and alliance Gertrud Boden Abstract This article outlines the pre-independence past of the Khwe in West Caprivi, one of Namibia’s San populations whose history is yet to be written. Besides consolidating material from previous publications, it also presents fresh insights based on archival and oral sources. While the trans-regional networks and power relations, in which the Khwe participated before the onset of colonialism, remain blurred due to scarce source material, the article will show that the German colonial power, while not profoundly affecting the daily lives of West Caprivi residents, nevertheless had significant and long-lasting effects through the definition of the boundaries, which, although permeable for local residents, became crucial in rendering activities illegal, delineating territories of refuge and marking out areas affected by conflicts in the neighbouring countries. During the first decades of South African administration, the situation on the ground was not much different from that under German ‘control’. From 1940 onwards, however, the state intervened in local interethnic relations as well as in the economic lives of the Khwe in a number of ways: by making West Caprivi first a livestock free territory, then a nature conservation area and finally a military no-access zone. In addition the state had an impact by promoting the recruitment of Khwe men for mine labour, installing native guards and Khwe leaders, courting the Khwe as useful people and hiring Khwe as soldiers for the South African Defense Force.
