Note. – This species, apparently endemic in Sabah, was for a long time only known from two female spec- imens from the Mt. Kinabalu area (Cassola 1983). Wiesner (1989) recorded some additional specimens and described the male. Like C. (L.) catoptroides, it is dark bronze in colour, with four similarly-sized ely- tral dots (rarely just two), metallic legs, and a short half-testaceous labrum, but the females have smooth and shiny shoulders and a large round elytral mirror (males, in contrast, have matt shoulders). Moreover, b the sides of pronotum are slightly pubescent. Cylindera (Leptinomera) virgulifera Cassola 0,5 mm Cylindera (Leptinomera) virgulifera Cassola, 1995: 117. Type locality: Mt.

  • Colonialism, Political, Economic and Social Impacts, Africa
    Impacts of Colonialism - A Research Survey 1 Patrick Ziltener University of Zurich, Switzerland zaibat@soziologie .unizh.ch Daniel Kunzler University of Fribourg, Switzerland daniel.kuenzler@un ifr.ch Abstract The impacts of colonialism in Africa and Asia have never been compared in a systematic manner for a large sample of countries. This research survey presents the results of a new and thorough assessment of the highly diverse phenomenon - including length of domination , violence, partition, proselytization, instrumentalization of ethno-linguistic and religious cleavages, trade, direct investment, settlements, plantations, and migration - organized through a dimensional analysis (political, social, and economic impacts). It is shown that while in some areas, colonial domination has triggered profound changes in economy and social structure, others have remained almost untouched. Keywords: Colonialism, political, economic and social impact s, Africa, Asia There is a stron g tradition of empirical-quantitativ e research from a world systems­ perspective (see, among other s, Bomschier and Chase-Dunn 1985). This research, howev er, has until recently been confined to indir ect mea suring of historicall y earlier factors, although it stresses theoreticall y the importance of long-term historical factors. According to Sanderson, world-systems analys is "tends to ignore the pre capitalist history of these societies [... ] this history often turns out to be of critical importance in conditioning the way in which any given society will be incorporat ed into the capitali st system and the effects of that incorporation" (Sanderson 2005: 188). For Kerbo (2005a: 430), scholarship has "yet to consider that East and Southeast Asian countries more generall y are somehow different from Latin American and African nations when it comes to important aspects of political economy that might interact with the affects of outside multin ational corporate investment.

    Sejarah, No. 27, Bil. 1, 2018, hlm. 55-80. PEMBENTUKAN DAERAH LAWAS SEBAGAI DAERAH TERAKHIR BERSAMA KERAJAAN SARAWAK (THE FORMATION OF LAWAS DISTRICT AS A LAST DISTRICT IN THE SARAWAK GOVERNMENT) Habid’s Buhigiba bin Mohamad Bustamam Suffian Mansor Mohd. Bin Shamsuddin Abstrak Artikel ini membincangkan sejarah pembentukan Daerah Lawas dan bagaimanakah daerah ini menyertai Kerajaan Sarawak sebagai daerah yang terakhir sejak bermula peluasan kuasa Sarawak tahun 1841. Perbincangan akan dibahagikan kepada dua bahagian berasaskan peristiwa di sungai Trusan dan sungai Lawas. Semasa pentadbiran Brunei semua pemilikan tanah di Sabah dan Sarawak dibahagikan mengikut sistem sungai Kerajaan, sungai Kuripan dan sungai Tulin. Persaingan berlaku di antara Kerajaan Sarawak dan Syarikat Borneo Utara British (SBUB) untuk mengambil tanah di sekitar kawasan Teluk Brunei hingga akhir abad ke-20. Bagaimanakah persaingan di antara kedua-dua kerajaan dan penglibatan wazir di Brunei dalam isu Sungai Trusan membawa kepada penyerahan Sungai Trusan kepada Kerajaan Sarawak? Apakah masalah di Sungai Lawas yang menyebabkan Kerajaan SBUB menyerahkan kawasan tersebut kepada Kerajaan Sarawak? Bagaimanakah Kerajaan Sarawak menyelesaikan tuntutan para pengiran dan Brooke Johnson bagi memenuhi syarat Kerajaan British bagi mengambil Sungai Lawas? Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa penolakan penduduk Sungai Lawas menjadi elemen penting yang membawa kepada penyerahan Sungai Lawas kepada Kerajaan Sarawak. Pengambilan kedua-dua sungai oleh Kerajaan Sarawak telah berjaya mewujudkan keamanan dan mengekalkan kestabilan dalam kehidupan penduduk di Sungai Trusan dan Sungai Lawas. Abstract This article discusses the formation of Lawas District and how it joined the Sarawak Government as the last district in Sarawak's expansion since 1841. The discussion is divided into two parts based on the event at Sungai Trusan and Sungai Lawas.
