    Copyright © Anthony C.K. Kakooza, 2014 All rights reserved THE CULTURAL DIVIDE: TRADITIONAL CULTURAL EXPRESSIONS AND THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY IN DEVELOPING ECONOMIES BY ANTHONY C.K. KAKOOZA DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of the Science of Law in Law in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2014 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Jay Kesan, Chair Professor Bob Lawless Professor Anna-Marie Marshall Professor Thomas Ulen ABSTRACT This study addresses a number of pertinent issues concerning Traditional Cultural Expressions [TCEs], specifically in relation to what they are and the dilemma surrounding ownership vis-à-vis custodianship in an environment that is biased towards protection of Intellectual Property Rights. The present inadequate legal recognition and, ultimately, insufficient international recognition and protection of TCEs has orchestrated the misappropriation of such works for the benefit of the entertainment industry and other economic sectors as well. The biggest underlying issue therefore is – whether TCEs should be recognized within the domain of Intellectual Property Rights. The fact that TCEs are considered as part of the public domain raises a key issues as to how they can be protected so as to serve the interests of ethnic communities, States, as well as the users of the TCEs. The claim made in this study is that because of the communal nature of ownership and difficulty in defining TCEs, this has contributed to their abuse by all users. The current origin-based I.P regimes are considered as inadequate in protecting TCEs which are mainly characterized by communal ownership and absence of fixation.

  • Ancestral and Spiritual Naming of Children Among the Jopadhola Lwo
    Ancestral and Spiritual Naming of Children among the Jopadhola Lwo of Eastern Uganda by Jennifer Mary Yoga Jagire A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Social Justice Education, OISE University of Toronto © Copyright by Jennifer Mary Yoga Jagire 2016 Ancestral and Spiritual Naming of Children among the Jopadhola Lwo of Eastern Uganda Jennifer Mary Yoga Jagire Doctor of Philosophy Social Justice Education, OISE University of Toronto 2016 Abstract This study brings Indigenous understandings to the anti-colonial resistance by the Jopadhola Lwo people of Eastern Uganda. The Jopadhola Lwo people link with ancestors in the naming ceremonies for their children. For the study, I employed Indigenous methodology to understand how a minority people resist assimilation. I interviewed elders in Dhopadhola Lwo. The Indigenous methodology is the Padhola elders’ agency for educating the researcher. The study objectives investigated: the Indigenous naming practices and how these are understood in contemporary contexts; the Indigenous practices and the possibilities for decolonization; the understanding of the interface of society, culture, and Nature, the nexus of body, mind, and soul, and the spirit from naming ceremonies of Padhola; and the implications for transforming schooling in African and Euro- American contexts. The research findings revealed: 1. Name variations of Padhola with ongoing ceremonies for Apipili and Yao Rut. ii 2. Resistance to foreign names as Njawala or twigs. 3. Sacred monotheist Indigenous religion thrives with Kuunu shrines. 4. Ancestors reveal children’s names in dreams. 5. Indigenous education resists Christianity. 6. The Jopadhola elders are not worth their salt if they do not resist foreign influence and advocate for a return to traditional education.

This year, for the 28th time, the PRIX EUROPA will gather the cream of the crop of European media. From all over the continent, people who share the same passion for television, radio and web will come to Berlin to compete against each other, and so pay testament to the dynamism of European public broadcasting. However, the strength of the festival goes beyond the competition itself. Its real virtue is that it gets young and old from different cultures, religions and languages communicating with and learning from each other. What’s more, this sort of collaboration helps us to understand each other – and that is of crucial moral, civil, social and cultural value in the turbulent world of the moment. I look forward to this exceptional event and to meeting you there. Yours sincerely, Roger de Weck PRIX EUROPA President Director General of Schweizerische Radio- und Fernsehgesellschaft - SRG SSR Welcome to Berlin, where PRIX EUROPA has built its home - with good reason. It is a city where ideas count more than high salaries, imagination defeats protocol, and talent can find space to develop.
