Editorial Note This issue of Development Dialogue is in its entirety devoted to different aspects of autono- mous and innovative developments in Africa while also drawing on relevant experiences from other continents. It is divided into three sections: the first outlines and discusses alterna- tive ways of providing development assistance by setting up politically autonomous develop- ment funds; the second section features two deeply thought-provoking contributions by Joseph Ki-Zerbo and Ernest Wamba-dia-Wamba, renowned African historians, dealing with the state and the crisis in Africa and the impasse in which the continent will find itself unless it can escape 'its present dependency, which is almost a perpetuation of the era of slavery'. The third section re-enforces the importance of the concept of 'Education with Production', developed and implemented in Southern Africa over the past 30 years and now attracting in- creasing public interest in the Republic of South Africa. This issue also pays tribute to the memory of Amir Jamal, who spent his life serving the people and the government of his coun- try, Tanzania, and as an indefatigable negotiator for Africa and the South. There is nothing special about the Dag Hammarskjöld Foundation devoting a whole issue of Development Dialogue to Africa. The activities of the Foundation were, in fact, largely fo- cused on Africa during the first decade of its existence due not only to the tragic death of Dag Hammarskjöld at Ndola in 1961 but also to the emergence of so many new African states at this time. During the following decades, the Foundation's work programme was broadened to include both Asia and Latin America as well as the world of international organisations but without losing its original focus on Africa. Examples of the Foundation's orientation to- wards Africa are its conferences and seminars on African Refugee Problems, Regional Economic Integration, African Child Care, Education and Training and Alternatives in Edu- cation in African Countries, the Development of Autonomous Capacity in Publishing in Africa, Democracy and the Media in Southern Africa and on the State and the Crisis in Africa and the Search for a 'Second Liberation'. Unlike the cynics in the political and commercial world and in the mainstream media, who, turning towards the lucrative markets in the East, have come to write Africa off as 'a lost cause", we would argue with Joseph Ki-Zerbo that it calls for urgent attention and action as the very survival of the continent is at stake. 'There is no splendid European or American iso- lation, which on its own could conjure up this apocalypse. Even if one closes one's eyes so as not to see, the stench of the charnel houses of Rwanda, Sudan and elsewhere will eventually reach the nostrils, if not the conscience, of every human being.' In his essay, Ki-Zerbo emphasises that Africa urgently needs to develop a new vision of its future against the background of past and present ills: the uncritical adoption of the paradigm of the nation state; the destruction of social and cultural cohesion; the growing bias towards the national centre and the mass exodus from the rural areas to cities that are disintegrating under the strain of unregulated growth. The answer would be the transformation of the African nation states into new institutional arrangements better suited to respond to the realities, interests and values of the people. In this task, a vital part will be played by civil so- ciety—or the Third System as it was called in Marc Nerfin's seminal paper 'Neither Prince nor Merchant: Citizen—An Introduction to the Third System' in Development Dialogue 1987:1. 2 Editorial Note Ernest Wamba-dia-Wamba concentrates the focus in his paper on Zaire on the role and im- portance of the Sovereign National Conference and the hitherto frustrated efforts to build a genuinely participatory democracy in this tragically divided country. Wide-ranging conclu- sions, applicable to the whole African region, can be drawn from this highly relevant essay. In the section on Education with Production, the old question about the most relevant schooling system for Africa is raised again. It is clear that more than three decades of efforts to copy the systems of the North in large-scale mimetic projects have not yielded the results hoped for and that the quality and relevance of the education provided is sometimes lower than it was 30 years ago, i.e. before the erosion of the indigenous languages and the social fabric by a schooling system whose main aim has been 'modernisation' whatever its social and cultural costs. Is it presumptuous to point to an alternative that has been in existence for a number of years in Southern Africa and applies a resource-saving, development-oriented, Africa-based model, starting with the idea that all young people have a role to play in the de- velopment of the continent and with a curriculum which is tested out in Southern Africa and already in place—Education with Production? What role should the countries of the North play in a new African strategy for development and democracy? The answer is certainly not to leave Africa by the wayside as a hopeless bas- ket case and turn to more profitable ventures in other parts of the world. It is rather to devel- op a new kind of relationship, tracing its origins to the early years of development coopera- tion and making it possible for African countries and countries in the North to work together as true partners within a commonly agreed framework. Proposals are made in this issue of Development Dialogue for the establishment of Autonomous Development Funds allowing civil society organisations and governmental bodies in Africa and in the North to cooperate as equals in a trusting relationship freed from corruption and conditionalities. Reflecting on the material presented in this issue of Development Dialogue, it is striking to note how the perspectives and the proposals made relate to the ideas of Another Develop- ment advanced in the 1975 Dag Hammarskjöld Report, What Now. As readers of this journal are well aware, Another Development would be need-oriented, i.e. geared to meeting the material and non-material needs of the world's inhabitants; endogenous, i.e. stemming from the heart of each society; self-reliant; ecologically sound and based on structural transforma- tions so as to realise the conditions of self-management and participation in decision-making by all those affected by it, from the rural or urban community to the world as a whole. It may well be that these ideas, formulated 20 years ago, will meet with a renewed interest in the years to come. Could it even be that we will see, before this decade and this century comes to an end, a sobering up of the international debate? Such a sobering up would then mean that the issues of resource waste, both physical and economic, the perverse concentration on economic goals at the expense of social and cultural goals, and the increasing marginalisation of large groups of people in the South as well as in the North, are reappraised in the interest of promoting Another Development, required in all societies, whether in the North or the South, centrally planned or market-dominated, at a high or low level of productivity'. Autonomous Development Funds An Alternative to Conventional Official Development Assistance One of the most pernicious features of the situation in most African coun- tries today is the distrust of so many people in public authority. Government officers often treat their offices as private fiefs, extorting bribes from mem- bers of the public seeking their services.

The Impact of the Second World War on the Decolonization of Africa Erin Myrice 2 “An African poet, Taban Lo Liyong, once said that Africans have three white men to thank for their political freedom and independence: Nietzsche, Hitler, and Marx.” 1 Marx raised awareness of oppressed peoples around the world, while also creating the idea of economic exploitation of living human beings. Nietzsche created the idea of a superman and a master race. Hitler attempted to implement Nietzsche’s ideas into Germany with an ultimate goal of reaching the whole world. Hitler’s attempted implementation of his version of a ‘master race’ led to one of the most bloody, horrific, and destructive wars the world has ever encountered. While this statement by Liyong was bold, it held truth. The Second World War was a catalyst for African political freedom and independence.

  • La Crise D'hommes Au Congo: Les Larmes De La Honte
    Benjamin Becaud Mambuana “ La crise d’hommes au Congo: les larmes de la honte” De la déchéance à la fin programmée du fameux « Brésil africain » mort né -2008- Résumé Pourquoi malgré ses importants atouts : ses ressources les plus innombrables et exceptionnelles ce pays, autrefois nommé le « Brésil africain » continue sa plongée apnée ? Des facteurs tels la colonisation, l’impérialisme, l’ingérence extérieure,…, ont été généralement évoqués pour expliquer les causes de la déliquescence de ce « pays continent » très largement gâté par la nature. Une part relativement faible des analyses accordait l’attention à la défaillance humaine pour expliquer les vraies origines du mal qui continue à compromettre le bien-être des populations congolaises. A l’évidence, autant d’hommes qui se succèdent à la tête du Congo, autant des systèmes politiques, autant des médiocrités qui gangrènent le quotidien congolais largement marqué par la racaille. La victimisation du peuple congolais demeure une réalité frappante dont la « têtutesse » de faits semble ne pas être défiée même par le point de vue de l’observateur le plus optimiste. Le Congo s’affiche à la porte des sorties de classements conventionnellement admis, n’eût été les artifices par lesquels les meilleurs experts surdoués des institutions internationales se tirent d’affaire pour justifier des potentiels signes de vie : brandissant, notamment, des chiffres dignes des coups de baguettes magiques. Cet ouvrage tente d’examiner, tout particulièrement, l’homme congolais, et sa façon de faire. Un processus de lavage de cerveaux et de dépigmentation culturelle ont été, très tôt à l’œuvre pour transmuter ce peuple dynamique d’avant l’indépendance en vulgaire danseur avili et humilié.

    SPECIAL OPERATIONS EXECUTIVE: SCENES FROM THE ANTI-NAZI WAR Basil Davidson Victor Gollancz 1980 288 pp £8.50. History is both 'past polities' and very much current politics, too, in this autobiography of a World War II British agent, which will be as evocative for the old as it is educational for young readers. The author was an officer in the Special Operations Executive set up to promote resistance 'in countries overrun or overawed by the Nazis'. He operated throughout the war — in Hungary, at the SOE base in Cairo, in Yugoslavia and in Italy. His story is highly personalised, cinematic in its to-ing and fro- ing over the years, but firmly held together by the themes it develops. It gives a deeply moving account of the genesis of people's armed resistance under Communist leadership. One puts the book down with two main impressions. The first is how much of what we had all learned by 1945 has been 36 October 1980 Marxism Today Reviews distorted, or simply buried, by the long cold struggles as a kind of first rejection of Stalinist When Davidson was appointed G2 of the war years.

  • 1 Criticisms of Multiparty Democracy
    CRITICISMS OF MULTIPARTY DEMOCRACY: PARALLELS BETWEEN WAMBA-DIA-WAMBA AND ARENDT. Gail M. Presbey • This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published by Taylor & Francis in NEW POLITICAL SCIENCE in Volume 20, 1998 - Issue 1, 35-52, available online: https://doi.org/10.1080/07393149808429811 Is Africa becoming more democratic in the 1990's? A sharp increase in multiparty democracy might seem to attest to the victory of democracy in Africa -- unless the presence of multiparty democracy alone may not be a sufficient indicator of the status of democracy. Thirty years ago, Arendt criticized both multiparty and one-party democracy, advocating a more grassroots involvement in localized politics. In the 1960's, Fanon and other African critics likewise criticized what party politics was doing to the newly-independent states of Africa. _______________________________________________________________ 1 2 Since 1990, Ernest Wamba-dia-Wamba of University of Dar-Es- Saalam has written several articles from a contemporary African angle, suggesting criticisms of multiparty and one-party democracy that parallel Arendt's analysis. Wamba-dia-Wamba is an important and influential scholar who specializes in the history of ideas as well as the history of political economy. He has recently spent several years as President of the Executive Committee of CODESRIA (Council for the Development of Social Science Research in Africa). In his work for the past ten years with CODESRIA, he has coordinated research on social movements, social transformation, and democracy in Africa, recently resulting in an edited collection of research articles.1 In addition, Wamba-dia-Wamba served as East Africa Editor for Quest: Philosophical Discussions, An International African Journal of Philosophy from 1988-1996.
