Although writing a thesis is a very individual and sometimes lonely trip, the words of thanks here bear witness to connections. Being a traveller and longing for discovery, this PhD project made me realize how important feelings of rootedness in friendships and family and collegial relations are. Many people contributed to my sense of belonging – be it by discussing, commenting, singing, emailing, skyping, drinking or dancing together – in spite of or maybe because of my endless journeys. Looking back on all these shared adventures makes me feel a rich person. It is all those who cared, got in touch with me and enriched my travels who I wish to thank here. My journey began with a yearlong stay with a rich second-generation Lebanese migrant family in Brazil in 1997-1998. This trip aroused my curiosity in cultural differ- ences, which I decided to nourish in the Netherlands at the Department of Anthropology at Leiden University (1998-2003). People like Sabine Luning, Jan Jansen, Jose van Santen and Peter Geschiere inspired me with their teaching and passion for both Africa and anthropology. Mirjam de Bruijn’s inspiring course on nomads in the Sahel in 2003 prompted me to do my MA research in the Malian Sahel, which allowed me to explore my already existing passion for Malian music. Anneke Breedveld gave me some lan- guage courses in Fulfulde before I left and Mirjam and Jan Jansen helped me with the writing up of my thesis and facilitated introductions for me in Bamako in 2001. And in 2007 Jan generously received my sister and mother on a festive occasion in the Malian Mande hills: ini che! Institutionally I benefitted from a bursary from the CNWS graduate school in Leiden and a grant from WOTRO (NWO) that was allocated to the African Studies Centre in Leiden. When I started, I was one of the first PHD students working there, and there are now at least 20: times are changing! Among the ASC staff, my deep thanks go to Marieke van Winden for all the assistance she provided from bringing back wallets and books to logistical back-up during conferences and cooperation with the Dutch Society for African Studies (NVAS).

  • Decomposing Gender and Ethnic Earnings Gaps in Seven West African Cities
    DOCUMENT DE TRAVAIL DT/2009-07 Decomposing Gender and Ethnic Earnings Gaps in Seven West African Cities Christophe NORDMAN Anne-Sophie ROBILLIARD François ROUBAUD DIAL • 4, rue d’Enghien • 75010 Paris • Téléphone (33) 01 53 24 14 50 • Fax (33) 01 53 24 14 51 E-mail : [email protected] • Site : www.dial.prd.fr DECOMPOSING GENDER AND ETHNIC EARNINGS GAPS IN SEVEN WEST AFRICAN CITIES Christophe Nordman Anne Sophie Robilliard François Roubaud IRD, DIAL, Paris IRD, DIAL, Dakar IRD, DIAL, Hanoï [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Document de travail DIAL Octobre 2009 Abstract In this paper, we analyse the size and determinants of gender and ethnic earnings gaps in seven West African capitals (Abidjan, Bamako, Cotonou, Dakar, Lome, Niamey and Ouagadougou) based on a unique and perfectly comparable dataset coming from the 1-2-3 Surveys conducted in the seven cities from 2001 to 2002. Analysing gender and ethnic earnings gaps in an African context raises a number of important issues that our paper attempts to address, notably by taking into account labour allocation between public, private formal and informal sectors which can be expected to contribute to earnings gaps. Our results show that gender earnings gaps are large in all the cities of our sample and that gender differences in the distribution of characteristics usually explain less than half of the raw gender gap. By contrast, majority ethnic groups do not appear to have a systematic favourable position in the urban labour markets of our sample of countries and observed ethnic gaps are small relative to gender gaps.

  • Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics &A
    Online Appendix for Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue (2014) Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics & Change Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue The following document lists the languages of the world and their as- signment to the macro-areas described in the main body of the paper as well as the WALS macro-area for languages featured in the WALS 2005 edi- tion. 7160 languages are included, which represent all languages for which we had coordinates available1. Every language is given with its ISO-639-3 code (if it has one) for proper identification. The mapping between WALS languages and ISO-codes was done by using the mapping downloadable from the 2011 online WALS edition2 (because a number of errors in the mapping were corrected for the 2011 edition). 38 WALS languages are not given an ISO-code in the 2011 mapping, 36 of these have been assigned their appropri- ate iso-code based on the sources the WALS lists for the respective language. This was not possible for Tasmanian (WALS-code: tsm) because the WALS mixes data from very different Tasmanian languages and for Kualan (WALS- code: kua) because no source is given. 17 WALS-languages were assigned ISO-codes which have subsequently been retired { these have been assigned their appropriate updated ISO-code. In many cases, a WALS-language is mapped to several ISO-codes. As this has no bearing for the assignment to macro-areas, multiple mappings have been retained. 1There are another couple of hundred languages which are attested but for which our database currently lacks coordinates.

  • The Life of Imam Muhammad Al Jawad
    Chapter 1 Dedication To the inspiring mind that has encouraged scientific and in- tellectual life on the earth, To the creative intellect that has initiated revival and cre- ation for Muslims, To the great Imam, Ja’far as-Sadiq, peace be upon him, I offer, with humbleness and reverence, this work, in which I have received the honor of researching the biography of his grandson Imam Muhammad al-Jawad, the miracle of intellect and knowledge in Islam, hoping it will be accepted… 2 Chapter 2 Introduction One of the most wonderful pictures of intellect and know- ledge in Islam is Imam Abu Ja’far Muhammad al-Jawad (a.s), who possessed the virtues and nobilities of the world, made springs of wisdom and knowledge flow in the earth and was the teacher and pioneer of the scientific and cultural revival of his age. Scholars, jurisprudents, narrators of traditions and learners of wisdom and sciences came to him to drink from the pure fount of his sciences and cultures. Jurisprudents have re- ported much from him concerning the verdicts of the Islamic Sharia, worships, mu’amalat[1] and other branches of jurispru- dence, and all have been recorded in the encyclopedias of jur- isprudence and Hadith. This great Imam was one of the founders of the jurispru- dence of the Ahlul Bayt[2] (a.s) that represented creation, ori- ginality and progress of intellect. [1] Ritual observances, social customs and ethical rules. [2] Ahlul Bayt is a term referring to the honored family of the Prophet (s), namely his daughter Fatima, Imam Ali, Imam Has- an, Imam Husayn and the other nine infallible imams descend- ing from Imam Husayn (peace be upon them all).

  • Office Du Niger Et Usage Agricole Eaux Souterraines
    3ème conférence Africaine de la CIID 29 Novembre 5 Décembre Bamako Sous thème 3 : Productivité de l'eau à usage agricole face aux défis du changement climatique: Titre : L’Office du Niger au Mali : d'une surconsommation des ressources en eau de surface en période d'étiage vers une utilisation agricole des eaux souterraines Bréhima TANGARA 1, Bruno LIDON 2, Amadou Zanga TRAORE 3, Kabirou N’DIAYE 4 1IER Niono Mali, 2 CIRAD UMR G-eau F-34398 Montpellier Cedex France, 3 ENI Bamako Mali, 4Africa Rice St Louis Sénégal. Résumé Depuis sa création l’Office du Niger a progressivement accru ses prélèvements de la ressource en eau du fleuve Niger sous l’effet conjugué d’une faible efficience et d’une demande croissante due au développement des superficies aménagées et de la double culture en particulier de riz. Cette tendance est renforcée par un accroissement de la demande en eau d’irrigation des cultures du fait d’une baisse notoire des pluies (460 mm/an au cours des vingt dernières années contre 600 mm/an au cours des 20 précédentes , des fortes températures, et d’une forte évapotranspiration (2430 mm/an). Face à des débits du Niger qui ont été très variables au cours des 50 dernières années, les prévisions quant aux disponibilités futures en eau pour l’irrigation restent contradictoires. Il est de ce fait difficile d’évaluer l’impact à attendre de l’effet conjugué du changement climatique et de l’intrinsèque variabilité du climat et des effets anthropiques (futurs barrages entre autres). Dans ce contexte, l’augmentation de la demande en eau, particulièrement en contre saison, pourrait, comme dans tous les grands périmètres irrigués du monde, être en partie satisfaite par l’exploitation de la nappe, faisant de sa remontée un atout.
