Van Doorn i ii EDITORIAL POLICY EDITORIAL POLICY African Studies Abstracts Online provides an overview of articles from periodicals and edited works on sub-Saharan Africa in the field of the social sciences and the humanities available in the library of the African Studies Centre in Leiden, The Netherlands. New features Following recommendations from a survey among subscribers to the ASA Online mailing list in 2008/09, various improvements have been made to ASA Online. The navigation and search facilities have been enhanced and a link to full text has been included when available. It is now possible to navigate within ASA Online directly - from the table of contents to the corresponding page - from an entry number in the subject and author indexes to the page where the bibliographic description and abstract can be found - from the country name in the geographical index to the corresponding section of the abstracts and from the entry number to the page containing the bibliographic description and abstract - from the bibliographic description via the ASCLink to the full text of an article or publication if available (subject to access restrictions) Another new feature is the inclusion of descriptors from the ASC African Studies Thesaurus for each entry. Each descriptor is linked to a search query in the online catalogue of the ASC library. Coverage ASA Online covers edited works (up to 60 in each issue) and journals in the field of African studies. Some 240 journals are systematically scanned. Just over half are English-language journals, just under a quarter are French, and the rest are German, Afrikaans, Dutch, Italian and Portuguese. Some 40 percent of the journals are published in Africa. Newspapers and weeklies, popular magazines, current affairs bulletins, statistical digests, directories, annual reports and newsletters are not scanned. Articles from journals published in Africa and from leading Africanist journals published outside the continent are provided with abstracts. Articles from other journals, including journals on North Africa, are catalogued and indexed without abstracts. All articles are included in the online catalogue of the ASC Library at http://opc-ascl.oclc.org/DB=3/LNG=EN/ To be selected for abstracting/indexing an article must be at least three to four pages long and have been published in the past two years. In a few cases, an article may be excluded on the grounds of subject if this is marginal to the ASC library's collection profile. Articles in the field of literature dealing with only one work are normally not selected. This also applies to purely descriptive articles iii EDITORIAL POLICY covering current political/economic developments, which could be expected to become quickly outdated. Review articles and book reviews are not covered. Contents and arrangement ASA Online is published four times a year. Each issue contains up to 400 entries, numbered sequentially and arranged geographically according to the broad regions of Africa: Northeast, West, West Central, East, Southeast Central and Southern Africa, and the Indian Ocean islands. There is also a general section for entries whose scope extends beyond Africa, as well as sections dealing with Africa and with sub-Saharan Africa as a whole. Within the regional sections, entries are arranged by country, and within each country, alphabetically according to author. Entries covering two countries appear twice, once under each country heading. Entries covering three or more countries are generally classified under the relevant regional heading. Each entry provides a bibliographic description together with English-language descriptors from the ASC African Studies Thesaurus and an abstract in the language of the original document. The abstract covers the essentials of the publication, generally including a description of subject and purpose, disciplinary approach, nature of the research and source materials. Where applicable an indication of the time period, specific geographical information, as well as the names of persons, languages and ethnic groups, are included. Indexes and list of sources Each issue of ASA Online contains a geographical index, a subject index, and an author index, all referring to entry number. The subject index is self-devised and is intended as a first and global indication of subjects with categories for general, religion and philosophy, culture and society, politics, economics, law, education, anthropology, medical care and health services, rural and urban planning and geography, language and literature, and history and biography. Entries included under more than one country heading are listed in the geographical index under each country. The subject and author indexes list the entry only once, the first time it appears. In addition, each issue of ASA Online contains a list of periodicals abstracted, indicating the issues which have been covered. A list of all periodicals regularly scanned for abstracting or indexing is available on the ASC website at: http://www.ascleiden.nl/Library/Abstracts/ Comments or suggestions can be sent to the editors at [email protected] iv GEOGRAPHICAL INDEX abstract number INTERNATIONAL General 1-8 AFRICA General 9-59 NORTHEAST AFRICA General 60 Ethiopia 61-68 Horn of Africa 69 Somalia 70-75 Sudan 76-78 AFRICA SOUTH OF THE SAHARA General 79-110 WEST AFRICA General 111-124 Burkina Faso 125-129 The Gambia 130 Ghana 131-140 Ivory Coast 141-143 Mali 144-148 Mauritania 149-150 Niger 151-154 Nigeria 155-177 Senegal 178-188 Sierra Leone 189-191 Togo 192-193 WEST CENTRAL AFRICA General 194 Angola 195-196 Cameroon 197-214 Chad 215 Congo (Brazzaville) 216-221 Congo (Kinshasa) 222-228 Gabon 229-230 1 GEOGRAPHICAL INDEX Sao Tomé E Principe 231 EAST AFRICA General 232-237 Kenya 238-246 Rwanda 247-252 Tanzania 253-261 Uganda 262-277 SOUTHEAST CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN AFRICA General 278-281 SOUTHEAST CENTRAL AFRICA Malawi 282-285 Mozambique 286-289 Zambia 290-292 Zimbabwe 293-302 SOUTHERN AFRICA General 303-305 Botswana 306-324 Lesotho 325-330 Namibia 331-335 South Africa 336-419 Swaziland 420 ISLANDS General 421 Madagascar 422-423 2 SUBJECT INDEX A.

Although aspects of indigenous culture, which have been grouped into four spheres, namely Fang-Beti, Grassfields, Sawa and Sudano-Sahelian, are dotted all over the country in multiple ways, Cameroon cannot still boast of a national culture emblem.

  • Ethnolinguistic Favoritism in African Politics
    Ethnolinguistic Favoritism in African Politics Andrew Dickensy 10 August 2016 I document evidence of ethnic favoritism in 164 language groups across 35 African countries using a new computerized lexicostatistical measure of relative similarity between each language group and their incumbent national leader. I measure patronage with night light lu- minosity, and estimate a positive effect of linguistic similarity off of changes in the ethnolinguistic identity of a leader. Identification of this effect comes from exogenous within-group time-variation among lan- guage groups partitioned across national borders. I then corroborate this evidence using survey data and establish that the benefits of fa- voritism result from a region's associated ethnolinguistic identity and not that of the individual respondent. yYork University, Department of Economics, Toronto, ON.

    Ethnolinguistic Favoritism in African Politics ONLINE APPENDIX Andrew Dickensy For publication in the American Economic Journal: Applied Economics yBrock University, Department of Economics, 1812 Sir Issac Brock Way, L2S 3A2, St. Catharines, ON, Canada (email: [email protected]). 1 A Data Descriptions, Sources and Summary Statistics A.1 Regional-Level Data Description and Sources Country-language groups: Geo-referenced country-language group data comes from the World Language Mapping System (WLMS). These data map information from each language in the Ethnologue to the corresponding polygon. When calculating averages within these language group polygons, I use the Africa Albers Equal Area Conic projection. Source: http://www.worldgeodatasets.com/language/ Linguistic similarity: I construct two measures of linguistic similarity: lexicostatistical similarity from the Automatic Similarity Judgement Program (ASJP), and cladistic similar- ity using Ethnologue data from the WLMS. I use these to measure the similarity between each language group and the ethnolinguistic identity of that country's national leader. I discuss how I assign a leader's ethnolinguistic identity in Section 1 of the paper. Source: http://asjp.clld.org and http://www.worldgeodatasets.com/language/ Night lights: Night light intensity comes from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP). My measure of night lights is calculated by averaging across pixels that fall within each WLMS country-language group polygon for each year the night light data is available (1992-2013). To minimize area distortions I use the Africa Albers Equal Area Conic pro- jection. In some years data is available for two separate satellites, and in all such cases the correlation between the two is greater than 99% in my sample.

  • American Book Awards 2004
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2004 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.

Introduction This paper has two parts, which are presented as separate entities, but are nevertheless interrelated and therefore cross-referenced. The first part attempts to show that the diversity of roots for ‘one’ and ‘two’ in the Adamawa languages is apparent rather than real, and that, given certain morphological hypotheses, fairly widespread roots are reconstructible.

Nous convenons avec Ntahonkiriye (1999 : 90) pour désigner ici l'alternance de langues comme l’« usage conjoint de deux ou de plusieurs variétés linguistiques par un même locuteur dans un même énoncé ». Sous cette approche, l’alternance s’invite sous la plume d’écrivains qui dans leurs textes alternent des langues (parfois africaines) avec d’autres. L’emprunt quant à lui se présente comme l’une des principales stratégies de résistance des langues dominées, pour s’éviter une probable extinction.
