Abstract the Leadership of the Umc As a Prophetic ABSTRACT THE LEADERSHIP OF THE UMC AS A PROPHETIC COMMUNITY FOR THE HOLISTIC TRANSFORMATION OF POST-CONFLICT LIBERIA by Jerry Paye-Manfloe Kulah This study presents research findings conducted on the prophetic nature of the leadership of the Liberia Area of the United Methodist Church (UMC) in an effort to identify culturally sensitive and contextually relevant ways by which the church might contribute to the holistic transformation of post-conflict Liberia. Through ethnographic research, I evaluated the prewar leadership role of the UMC and the Christian community in ecclesial and national governance in general and, in particular, the prewar ministry performance of the UMC consistent with the socioeconomic, political, and spiritual needs of the community and people of contemporary Liberia. Research findings and analysis, as discussed in this dissertation, have implications for the need of a clearly defined and articulated national vision plan for the sustainable growth and development of the church and nation, the church’s commitment to developing Christ-centered, accountable, and credible leaders through discipleship, and its pursuit of community transformation through intentional social engagements and the practice of public theology.

  • Liberia Mission Review
    Peacekeeping_3.final.qxd 1/28/08 10:04 AM Page 57 3.13.4 Liberia Liberia has made substantial political progress toward sustained recovery since the election of Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf—the first elected female president in Africa—in 2005. The Johnson-Sirleaf government has taken steps toward improving the fragile security situation and revamping the country’s socioe- conomic fabric, which was destroyed during the nearly fourteen-year brutal civil conflict. However, while the country remained stable throughout 2007, a high unemployment rate, especially among youths, and the slow process of developing professional security forces, persist as major security concerns. Throughout the year in review, the UN Mis- sion in Liberia (UNMIL) remained deployed and continued its support of the government’s peace consolidation efforts. In August 2007, noting the “great strides in consolidating peace and promoting eco- UN Mission in Liberia (UNMIL) nomic recovery” in Liberia, the UN Secre- tary-General recommended a gradual, three- phase drawdown of its military forces in the • Authorization and 19 September 2003 (UNSC Res. 1509) Start Date country.1 The Security Council passed Reso- • SRSG and Ellen Margrethe Løj (Denmark) lution 1777 (2007) shortly after the Secretary- Head of Mission General’s report, approving the first phase of • Force Commander Lieutenant-General Chikadibia Isaac the drawdown, and granting a one-year exten- Obiakor (Nigeria) sion to UNMIL.

  • Shadow Colony: Refugees and the Pursuit of the Liberian
    © COPYRIGHT by Micah M. Trapp 2011 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED SHADOW COLONY: REFUGEES AND THE PURSUIT OF THE LIBERIAN- AMERICAN DREAM BY Micah M. Trapp ABSTRACT This dissertation is about the people living at the Buduburam Liberian refugee camp in Ghana and how they navigate their position within a social hierarchy that is negotiated on a global terrain. The lives of refugees living in Ghana are constituted through vast and complex social relations that span across the camp, Ghana, West Africa and nations further afield such as the United States, Canada and Australia. The conditions under which these relations have developed and continue to unfold are mediated by structural forces of nation-state policies, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the international governing body for refugees, and the global political economy. Situated within the broader politics of protracted refugee situations and the question of why people stay in long-term camps, this research is a case study of one refugee camp and how its people access resources, build livelihoods and struggle with power. In particular, this dissertation uses concepts of the Liberian-American dream and the shadow colony to explore the historic and contemporary terms and circumstances ii through which Liberian refugees experience and evaluate migratory prospects and restrictions. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The production of this dissertation has been an outcome of many places and people. In Washington, DC my committee members, Dolores Koenig, Geoffry Burkhart, and David Vine have provided patient support and provocative feedback throughout the entire process. Thank you for asking the right questions and reading so many pages.

  • Shadow of Dispute
    Shadow of Dispute ASPECTS OF COMMONWEALTH — STATE RELATIONS 1901-1910 D. I. Wright Shadow Shadow Disputeof Bä This book is the first detailed study of what happened when the well- established Australian colonial govern­ ments joined together to form the Commonwealth of Australia. It tells how the State politicians, anxious not to lose the political limelight, strove to maintain their former power and status virtually unchanged, and how the poli­ ticians of the new Commonwealth Government seized every opportunity to enhance their own authority and prestige. The part played by the Colonial Office in settling some of the disputes which arose is of particular interest now that its influence has waned completely. The study also reveals something of the jealousy which persisted between Victoria and New South Wales and of the first attempts at co-operation between Commonwealth and State. One thing which emerges clearly from this book is that during the period 1901-10 a pattern of inter-governmental relations was formed in Australia which has not greatly changed since — a pattern marked at the same time by co-operation and antipathy, where the steady growth of Commonwealth power has continued to be resisted firmly by the States. The writing of this book involved research into a mass of hitherto un­ examined official government corres­ pondence, both Commonwealth and State. Its interest is not only for his­ torians, but for all who wish to learn something of the background to Commonwealth-State relations and who seek to understand the continuing rivalries which are a feature of the relationship. Price in Australia $3.95 This book was published by ANU Press between 1965–1991.
