    Rebordering Africa, but not for Africans: Transfrontier Conservancy Areas, Tourism, and the Land David B. Coplan University of the Witwatersrand Abstract In countries where imperialism took the form of settler colonialism, one justification commonly advanced by the colonists for appropriating the land of indigenous people was that they were not making efficient use of it or maximizing its economic potential. Even after the first waves of massive dispossession had occurred, 'modernizing' legal measures to transform communal to individual title were often manipulated to deprive indigenous communities of most of what was left of their land. In the current century, transfrontier parks and conservation areas, heralded as vectors of economic development, employment, and cross-border reconciliation and integration, revive a 'progressive', 'eco-tourism and conservation' oriented version of the old 'efficient use' argument to appropriate land and its resources along border areas. The consequences of these internationally popular projects often create conflict, alienation, and resistance amidst and between local populations on both sides of the borders enclosed within such conservancies. The Transnational Governmentality of Landscape Planning and the “Bondage” of the Baka people in South‐East Cameroon Edith Neubauer Department of Social and Cultural Anthropology University of Vienna Abstract The Western Congo Basin Moist Forest Ecoregion constitutes a large part of the tropical wilderness of the Central African Region, the world’s second largest expanse of rainforest. As well as the globally important biodiversity of the Ecoregion faces severe threats from large‐scale commercial hunting, logging and mining, so does the indigenous population of the concerned region. While the protection of the biodiversity is of great international concern, the safeguard of indigenous rights still emerges as a stepchild in international conservation practices.

Villalón, who has been a great mentor and good friend. He has believed in me and prepared me to get to this place in my academic life. The pursuit of a degree in political science would not be possible without his support. I am also grateful to my committee members: Bryon Moraski, Michael Bernhard, Daniel A. Smith, Lawrence Dodd, and Fiona McLaughlin for generously offering their time, guidance and good will throughout the preparation and review of this work. This dissertation grew in the vibrant intellectual atmosphere provided by the University of Florida. The Department of Political Science and the Center for African Studies have been a friendly workplace. It would be impossible to list the debts to professors, students, friends, and colleagues who have incurred during the long development and the writing of this work. Among those to whom I am most grateful are Aida A. Hozic, Ido Oren, Badredine Arfi, Kevin Funk, Sebastian Sclofsky, Oumar Ba, Lina Benabdallah, Amanda Edgell, and Eric Lake.

  • Boubacar Barry Is One of the Leading Figures in West African Historiogra- Phy
    Boubacar Barry is one of the leading figures in West African historiogra- phy. His authoritative study of 400 years of Senegambian history is unri- valled in its detailed grasp of published and unpublished materials. Taking as its subject the vast area covering the Senegal and Gambia river basins, this book explores the changing dynamics of regional and Atlantic trade, clashes between traditional African and emergent Muslim authorities, the slave trade and the colonial system, and current obstacles to the integra- tion of the region's modern states. Professor Barry argues cogently for the integrity of the Senegambian region as a historical subject, and he forges a coherent narrative from the dismemberment and unification which char- acterized Senegambia's development from the fifteenth to the nineteenth century. This newly translated study is a vital tool in our understanding of West African history.
