IMM Lifestyle Books. Paperback. Book Condition: new. BRAND NEW, Feed the World: Birhan Woldu and Live Aid, Oliver Harvey, Bob Geldof, Birhan Woldu became one of the most recognized faces and forms of the late 20th century when her skeletal image was used at the end of 'Live Aid' to globally publicize famine in Africa. Although 'Live Aid', led by musicians such as Sir Bob Geldof and Bono, raised millions for famine relief, most people thought Birhan was dead until she was 'rediscovered' by a Canadian film crew who helped fund her schooling and helped change her life. Twenty years later Birhan once again became a symbol of hope for Africa when she appeared on stage at Live 8, beaming as Madonna hugged her in front of millions (see cover image). But what is the true story? Is Birhan just another example of media and celebrity exploitation of the next best cause? Has she helped change the way Western society views Africa? And what happened to Birhan in the years when everyone thought she was dead? Harvey, who travelled with Birhan from Africa to London for Live 8 and has had unlimited access to her story since then, tells Birhan's life story from the days when her father literally carried his daughter across Africa on an epic journey to life, to Live Aid and the years of struggle between to the present day. Today Birhan works as the face of Africa, still helping others in her day job as a nurse, while campaigning to raise funds to help alleviate poverty and famine in Africa.

    133 Informe de Oxfam 22 Octubre 2009 Tras 25 años de parches La lucha contra los desastres en Etiopía 25 años después de la hambruna Sarahaa Malmud Muhumed junto a un birkhad construido por Oxfam, una alberca protegida donde se recoge agua de lluvia para utilizarla durante la larga estación seca, Harshin, Región Somalí, Etiopía. Derechos: Oxfam/Maite Álvarez. En 1984 se llevó a cabo una operación humanitaria a gran escala como respuesta a la hambruna en Etiopía. Se salvaron miles de vidas. Veinticinco años más tarde, a medida que las sequías se hacen peligrosamente más habituales, tenemos que ir más allá de las tradicionales respuestas “parche”. Para los etíopes es más sostenible y dignificante identificar y atajar los riesgos de desastre, que quedarse esperando hasta que uno nuevo les golpee. Este enfoque supone, además, que los países del norte puedan cumplir con sus responsabilidades de una manera más eficiente. Sin embargo, la Gestión de Riesgos de Desastres sigue dándose en pequeña escala. Es necesario efectuar un cambio. Los etíopes, en primera línea ante el cambio climático, no pueden esperar otros 25 años para que se ponga en práctica el sentido común. www.intermonoxfam.org Prólogo Me llamo Birhan Woldu. En 2005 me di cuenta de que me había convertido en el rostro de la hambruna de Etiopía, aunque en 1984-5 era muy pequeña para saber o entender prácticamente nada acerca de aquel desastre. Un documental de la televisión canadiense me presentó como “el rostro de la esperanza para África”, alguien que había sobrevivido a la hambruna, y el presentador, Brian Stewart, se hizo amigo de mi familia.

  • Famine and Foreigners: Ethiopia Since Live Aid This Page Intentionally Left Blank Famine and Foreigners: Ethiopia Since Live Aid
    ‘Th ank God for great journalism. Th is book is a much needed, ex- haustively researched and eff ortlessly well written recent history of Ethiopia. A book that strips away the cant and rumour, the pros and antis and thoroughly explains the people, politics and economics of that most beautiful nation. A superb and vital piece of work by some- one who clearly loves the country of which he writes.’ Bob Geldof ‘Th e great Ethiopian famine changed everything and nothing. It fun- damentally altered the rich world’s sense of its responsibility to the hungry and the poor, but didn’t solve anything. A quarter of a century on, we’re still arguing about the roots of the problem, let alone the so- lution, and—though there has been progress—Ethiopia’s food inse- curity gets worse, not better. Peter Gill was one of the most thorough and eff ective television journalists of his generation. He was there in 1984 and his work at the time added up to the most sensible, balanced and comprehensive explanation of what had happened. Twenty-fi ve years later, he’s gone back to test decades of aspiration against the re- alities on the ground. It’s a book that bridges journalism and history, judicious analysis with a strong, and often gripping, narrative. Always readable, but never glib, this is a must for all those who think there is a simple answer to the famine, still waiting in the wings. ’ Michael Buerk ‘No outsider understands Ethiopia better than Peter Gill. He com- bines compassion with a clinical commitment to the truth.

  • ECGA 5450 Crises, Adjustment and Poverty Spring 2018 the Macroeconomics of Foreign Aid
    ECGA 5450 Crises, Adjustment and Poverty Spring 2018 The Macroeconomics of Foreign Aid Surges of foreign aid often follow the end of conflict or natural disasters (Haiti in 2009 and Sri Lanka after the 2004 Tsunami). Public health emergencies and natural disasters can lead to large aid inflows. Though well intended, foreign currency inflows sometimes reaching 20-30% GDP can lead to the same sort of macroeconomic adjustment problems created by private capital flows or terms of trade windfalls (the reverse of “sudden stops” or current account reversals). Though most Least Developed Countries do not have large manufacturing sectors, Dutch Disease style harm to the tradables sector caused by an appreciation of the real exchange rate or non-tradables inflation or displacement of domestic production by imports (a risk with food aid for example). Since the tradables sector in many countries includes agriculture, aid surges may hurt some of the same groups aid targets (small farmers for example). In extreme cases, aid can lead to a “boom famine” as documented by Sen (1973) in India during World War II (spending on war preparations drove up real wages and the price of food grains, leaving those not directly involved in the wage boom unable to purchase enough food). While in-kind food aid often drives down local food prices (raising real wages). Post-conflict aid inflows, for example, can reach a third of GDP or more (see Figures 4.15 and 4.16 from UNDP BCPR 2008 Chapter 4 reprinted below). At the 2005 Gleneagles G-8 Summit participants promised to double aid to Sub- Saharan African countries, from in some cases already high levels (for more on the politics of the Gleneagles aid surge, see the Why Poverty Documentary Give us the Money: Ethiopia, Bono and Bob Geldof (Live Aid and Live 8 where Birhan Woldu appeared in 2005).

  • The Iconography of Famine
    The Iconography of Famine David Campbell PUBLICATION Forthcoming in Picturing Atrocity: Reading Photographs in Crisis, edited by Geoffrey Batchen, Mick Gidley, Nancy K. Miller, Jay Prosser (London: Reaktion Books, 2011). Famine as political atrocity In the twentieth century more than 70 million people worldwide died from famine, making it the most famine-stricken period in history. Given that the capacity to abolish famine globally was achieved in the twentieth century, preventable mass death on this scale constitutes an atrocity. Framing the issue in this way radically revises conventional understandings of famine and poses a fundamental challenge to the way famines are photographed. There have been two shifts in how famine has been understood in recent times. As Stephen Devereux makes clear, while famine is by definition a food crisis, the nature of such crises is many and varied, such that simple interpretations of famine as a natural disaster have been superseded by more complex understandings that highlight political responsibility. With over 80% of famine deaths in the twentieth century located in China and the Soviet Union, and all those deaths occurring before 1965, the importance of political context is clearly paramount.1 Indeed, we can extend the focus on political responsibility and conclude that ‘nothing “causes” famine: people commit the crime of mass starvation.’2 The fact that famines are inescapably political is underpinned by the second important development in the twentieth century, whereby food crises are now located almost entirely in sub-Saharan Africa, where the intersection of political conflict and natural factors has been most acute. This means that states previously free of food crises have become prone to conflict-induced famines.

  • East African Stories of Love: Challenging Cultural Perceptions
    East African Stories of Love: Challenging Cultural Perceptions Brendon Briggs BA (Hons) in Media Studies This dissertation is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Murdoch University, December 2019 College of Arts, Business, Law & Social Sciences Murdoch University, Perth, Western Australia I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. In addition, I confirm that the fieldwork conducted for the purpose of this thesis was approved by the Human Ethics Committee at Murdoch University. Permit Number: 2014/016. Permit Title: Romancing Authenticity: East African Stories of Love. Brendon Briggs ii Abstract In recent decades a call for ‘outsiders’ to cease the dominant practice of perpetuating negative stereotypes of Africa and African people has continued to grow (Achebe 1977; Adichie 2009; Asante 1988; Diop 1974; Mudimbe 1988; Mwenda 2007; Wainaina 2008). The demand is in response to the homogenising of the fifty-four African nations and their complex sociocultural relationships into a sustained colonial perception of ‘Otherness’. This creative arts PhD attempts to answer that call by challenging non-African normative expectations of Africa and Africans. It employs processes of participatory autoethnography (Conquergood 1985) that integrate autobiographical and fictional storytelling to create four ‘stories of love’ with the diverse collaboration of eight East African participants in Tanzania and Zanzibar. The research is structured to achieve its creative praxis goals through the ‘observer and observed’ experience (Robson and McCartan 2016), utilising individual and collaborative ‘workshops’ with participants whose fictional characterisations were fully informed by their personal experiences with the subject of love – and most specifically those of ‘romantic love’ (Singer 2009; Solomon 2006).

The Department of Anthropology at Goldsmiths is one of the newest in Britain, having been formally created in 1985. We are proud of what we have achieved since then, and in particular of the way that people in the Department – students, staff and researchers – have sought to broaden the frontiers of the discipline and to engage critically and creatively with the traditions of anthropology in the contemporary world. We hope that the Goldsmiths Anthropology Research Papers will provide a platform to communicate some of the work that makes the Goldsmiths Department distinctive. It will include articles by members of academic staff, research fellows, PhD and other students.

  • Band Aids and Beyond: Tackling Disasters in Ethiopia 25 Years After
    133 Oxfam Briefing Paper 22 October 2009 Band Aids and Beyond Tackling disasters in Ethiopia 25 years after the famine Sarahaa Malmud Muhumed next to an Oxfam-built birkhad, a protected pond for collecting rainwater to use during the long dry season, Harshin, Somali region. Credit: Oxfam/Maite Alvarez In 1984, a massive humanitarian operation was launched in response to famine in Ethiopia. Thousands of lives were saved. Twenty-five years on, as droughts become dangerously common, we have to look beyond the traditional ‘band-aid’ responses. For Ethiopians it is more sustainable and dignified to identify and tackle the risk of disaster rather than simply waiting for disaster to strike. This approach is also a more cost-effective way for Northern countries to meet their responsibilities. However, Disaster Risk Management remains small-scale. This has to change. Ethiopians on the frontline of climate change cannot wait another 25 years for common sense to become common practice. www.oxfam.org Foreword My name is Birhan Woldu. In 2005 I came to realise that I had become the face of the Ethiopian famine, although as a young child in 1984–5 I knew or understood little about this disaster. I was featured in a Canadian TV documentary as the ‘face of hope for Africa’ who survived the famine and that TV interviewer Brian Stewart became a friend of my family. Twenty years later, in 2005, I was on stage with Madonna and Bob Geldof for the Live8 concert in London. I have now graduated with a diploma in agriculture and a degree in nursing.
