  • The Colonial State and Muslims in the North

    The Colonial State and Muslims in the North

    CHAPTER FOUR: THE COLONIAL STATE AND MUSLIMS IN THE NORTH 1. INTRODUCTION The aim of this chapter is to investigate British perceptions of Islam and Muslims in the Northern Territories up to the early 1930s. My key object is to examine the various positions of the colonial officials in the North towards Muslims and how these perceptions changed during the period of observation. In the Northern Territories, it will be argued, British attitudes shifted from a ‘pro-Muslim’ perspective to an indifferent, if not derogative one. In retrospect, it seems as if the colonial officials were confused by the kind of Islam that was practiced in the Northern Territories. Many of them seemed to have thought that there existed a kind of a ‘true’, monolithic Islam that had been outlined and studied by European experts for centuries. This ‘idealistic’ image of Islam was based on the scholarly interpretation of legal and religious texts, which had produced a legal and moral code that Western scholars thought to be the only true way to live and act as a Muslim.1 Thus, according to the European – and increasingly also according to a radical or reformist Muslim – notion, there existed something like an Urislam, Pure Islam or a Right Path, which was not followed by most of the Muslims (especially in sub-Saharan Africa). Whereas colonial officials only made sarcastic remarks about the various ways Islam was mixed with local beliefs, precolonial Muslim militant reformers went a step further and condemned the mixers and syncretists as unbelievers. This chapter is divided into three sections.
  • Historical, Sociological and Ideological Perspectives on Kwakuvi Azasu’S the Slave Raiders

    Historical, Sociological and Ideological Perspectives on Kwakuvi Azasu’S the Slave Raiders

    International Journal of Liberal Arts and Social Science Vol. 2 No. 6 August, 2014 Beyond Fiction: Historical, Sociological and Ideological perspectives on Kwakuvi Azasu’s The Slave Raiders ADJEI, Mawuli Department of English, University of Ghana, P.O. Box LG129, Legon, Ghana Email: [email protected] Abstract In many of his creative works, Ghanaian writer Kwakuvi Azasu’s background as historian, cultural anthropologist and Pan-Africanist comes through forcefully. In particular, he engages with the subject of the trans-Atlantic Slave Trade at many levels, and does so from a position of a thorough grasp of his native Anlo history and culture. In this paper, The Slave Raiders, his most ambitious work to date, is critically examined from historical, sociological and ideological perspectives. It is argued that, by and large, the text is engineered to deconstruct established hegemonies and to re-write the script of slavery, through fiction, from an Afrocentric point of view. Keywords: slave, raiders, sociological, ideological, historical, racism, negation 1.0 Introduction The predominance of the slave experience as a theme in Ghanaian literature, especially from the 1960s (Aidoo 1965, 1970; Armah 1973, 1995; Awoonor 1992; Anyidoho 1993; Brew 1995; Opoku-Agyemang 1996 etc.), indicates how central it is to the country’s literary tradition and identity. In The Slave Raiders, a story that has a dual setting and alternates between Anloland and England, Azasu explores a wide array of themes that undergird the relationship between Europe and Africa within the framework of the slave experience. As the title of the novel suggests, the greater focus is on England—the “slave raiders.” And implicit in the title is a strong reference to the subject of slavery as a “raid,” both denotatively and connotatively, rather than a “trade,” which for ages has been the operative word in the discourse relating to the trans-Atlantic dealing in human beings as commodities of exchange.
