    U.S. Mass Media Portrayal of the African Continent: the African Perspective

    U.S. MASS MEDIA PORTRAYAL OF THE AFRICAN CONTINENT: THE AFRICAN PERSPECTIVE by Sheba Manya A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTERS OF ARTS Major Subject: Communication West Texas A&M University Canyon, Texas December 2016 ABSTRACT This thesis explores how Africans perceive their continent is portrayed by U.S. media, and what Africans think about these portrayals. Africa is a continent known in the United States and other Western nations for darkness, wars, famine and other vices. Africans were asked to describe the kinds of news stories on Africa they see reported by U.S. media, whether those representations are accurate or not, and ways they feel those misrepresentations can be corrected. The participant responses were analyzed using Walter Fisher’s narrative paradigm as the theoretical framework. An online survey was administered through Qualtrics resulting in 99 participants dropping to 68 qualitative responses. Participants argued that though Africa is faced with some negativity, there is more to the continent and its people than is portrayed, stating that the good outweighs the bad. Keywords: Africa, Africans, Perception, Portrayal, Misrepresentation, U.S. Media, Narrative Theory. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis is dedicated to my pillar, my Mum. I first and foremost want to give thanks to God Almighty, for His immense grace and favor upon my life, which will have no meaning without Him. When I made the decision to go the thesis route, I knew it was going to a challenge, but I was willing to face and overcome it. My committee members: Dr. Drumheller, Dr.

    Actd 1808-1939: Description of Methods and Nomenclature

    ACTD 1808-1939: DESCRIPTION OF METHODS AND NOMENCLATURE This note provides a brief discussion of the basic methodology behind the construction of the export price indices listed in the African Commodity Trade Database (ACTD) for the years 1808-1939, discusses the representativeness of the import price index used to calculate the terms of trade, and explains the geographical reach of the French regions/areas in our sample. EXPORT PRICE INDEX To obtain an aggregate export price index for each area/colony, the country’s commodity prices were weighted using its export mix. These export weights were changed at approximately twenty-year intervals to capture long-run shifts in export composition. Country-specific export price indices were aggregated to obtain regional series. The aggregate indices were constructed using area/colony nominal export shares. These weights were also changed at twenty-year intervals to capture the shift in each area’s contribution to the value of total African exports. Methodology The basis for our price index is a basic Laspeyres price index. Equation (1) below captures the change in the aggregate price (P) of a composite basket of i goods between period 1 and the base period 0; p and q are the price and quantity of each good i respectively. 퐿 푝푖1 ⋅ 푞푖0 푝푖1 푃 = ∑ = ∑ 푠푖0 (1) 푝푖0 ⋅ 푞푖0 푝푖0 푖 푖 The fixed-weight price index is thus the ratio of the total value of goods in base period 0 measured at periods 1’s prices to the total value of goods in the base period itself. Or, alternatively, as the change in prices for good i weighted by the value share (s) of product i; where 푝푖0 ⋅ 푞푖0 푠푖0 = (2) ∑푖 푝푖0 ⋅ 푞푖0 In this Laspeyres index, only value shares for period 0 factor into the equation making it particularly sensitive to the choice of base-period.

A democratic dictator’s success: how Chad’s President Deby defeated the military opposition in three years (2008–2011) Ketil Fred Hansen This article focuses on how President Deby re-gained power after a nearly successful coup d'état against him in February 2008. The analysis points towards one major external reason for success and a divided internal strategy. The international community's little interest in Chad and the desire for political stability among the few interested states are the main external reasons for Deby's success. Internally, Deby's use of violence and co-optation explain his success. Deby defeated the Chadian military opposition by combining co- optation of adversaries in Chad's patrimonial marketplace.
