Introduction One Setting the Stage Notes Introduction 1. For further reference, see, for example, MacKay 2002. 2. See also Engle 2010 for this discussion. 3. I owe thanks to Naomi Kipuri, herself an indigenous Maasai, for having told me of this experience. 4. In the sense as this process was first described and analyzed by Fredrik Barth (1969). 5. An in-depth and updated overview of the state of affairs is given by other sources, such as the annual IWGIA publication, The Indigenous World. 6. The phrase refers to a 1972 cross-country protest by the Indians. 7. Refers to the Act that extinguished Native land claims in almost all of Alaska in exchange for about one-ninth of the state’s land plus US$962.5 million in compensation. 8. Refers to the court case in which, in 1992, the Australian High Court for the first time recognized Native title. 9. Refers to the Berger Inquiry that followed the proposed building of a pipeline from the Beaufort Sea down the Mackenzie Valley in Canada. 10. Settler countries are those that were colonized by European farmers who took over the land belonging to the aboriginal populations and where the settlers and their descendents became the majority of the population. 11. See for example Béteille 1998 and Kuper 2003. 12. I follow the distinction as clarified by Jenkins when he writes that “a group is a collectivity which is meaningful to its members, of which they are aware, while a category is a collectivity that is defined according to criteria formu- lated by the sociologist or anthropologist” (2008, 56). One Setting the Stage 1. Eleven anthropologists participating in a “Symposium on Inter-Ethnic Conflict in South America” in Barbados in January 1971 analyzed the critical situation of the Indians and urged religious missions, social scientists, and states to take action as formulated in a statement that came to be known as the Declaration of Barbados (World Council of Churches 1971). 2. Later changing its name to the Sub-Commission on the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights. 244 / Notes 3. This was the title of a book published by John Bodley in 1982. 4. The Alaska Native Brotherhood was founded in 1912 by Tsimshian, and Tlingits worked for the abandonment of “uncivilized” customs that were an obstacle to achieving citizenship. After some years, the Alaska Native Sisterhood was also established and proliferated in southeastern Alaska (Arnold 1976). 5. In 2006, it changed its name to the Inuit Circumpolar Council. 6. Detailed accounts of this meeting are contained in Kleivan, I. 1992 and Dahl 2009. 7. For a detailed account of this process and George Manuel’s role, see Dahl 2009. 8. For more detailed information about the founding of the WCIP, see Sanders 1977 and Dahl 2009. 9. Personal information from participants. 10. I recall that the existence of this mutual skepticism was mentioned to me by Helge Kleivan back in 1975 after he had returned from the meeting. 11. Personal information from one of the participants in the meeting, Nilo Cayuqeo. See also Akwesasne Notes vol. 9, no. 5, 1977, and Dunbar-Ortiz 1985. 12. According to information given to Helge Kleivan (letter from Helge Kleivan dat. 28. February 1974). Helge Kleivan’s archive in the Danish National Archive. 13. See also Akwesasne Notes vol. 9, no. 5, December 1977. 14. See, for example Dunbar-Ortiz 2006, 69, and the editorial (“How It Is with Us”) in Akwesasne Notes p. 25, vol. 9, no. 5, 1977. 15. Various documents in Helge Kleivan’s archive (Danish National Archive) and Nilo Cariqueo personal communication. 16. These processes are thoroughly dealt with in Dahl 2009. 17. Source: IWGIA Newsletter 25/26, 1981. 18. IWGIA Newsletter 28/29, 1981. 19. “Draft Declarations of Principles for the Defence of the Indigenous Nations and Peoples of the Western Hemisphere.” 20. Coates is of the opinion that it was the change in the international standing on human rights that had changed and that “while it has been common- place to explain the rise of the indigenous rights movements in the context of aboriginal organizations and national politics, that emphasis is misplaced” (2004, 231) but he seems not to distinguish between aboriginal and indig- enous movements. 21.

This division is still in operation today. 3. Cited in Tauli-Corpuz (1999, 8) from a book by Sarah Pritchard: Indigenous Peoples, United Nations and Human Rights (1998, 62–64), Zed book. 4. The International Indian Treaty Council (IITC) claims on its homepage to be the first indigenous organization to have obtained consultative status but this did not happen until three years later. 5. Information about the dates for NGO accreditation is available in United Nations document E/2009/INF/4. 6. These events are also reported in Gray 1992. 7. See also Hodgson 2002a. 8. Originally named Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms of Indigenous Peoples. 9. Its official name was “Working group to elaborate a draft declaration in accordance with paragraph 5 of General Assembly resolution 49/214 of 23 December 1994”. With this name, governments did not need to take a stance on the concept of “indigenous peoples”. 10. From “Report on the 1985 Session of the U.N: Working Group on Indigenous Populations, July 29–August 2, and on the Indigenous Peoples” Pre-Working Group Meeting, July 22–July 26, 1985, by Indian Law Resource Center and reprinted in Akwesasne Notes vol. 17, no. 5, February 1985. 11.

Coulter. (Memorandum from Indian Law Resource Center, July 13, 1982). According to Coulter it was as early as 1976 that he, together with Six Nations, produced draft principles for a declaration (Coulter 2010). 12. Printed in Daes 2009. 13. Printed in Daes 2009. 14.

Among the first indigenous organizations to be prepared to consider changes to the text were ICC, the Sámi Council, Indian Law Resource Center, and the Aboriginal organizations from Australia (Prichard 2001; Åhrén 2007). 19. The group was led by the International Indian Treaty Council and some North American Indian organisations. 20. Those who took part in the Indigenous Global Steering Committee were Dalee Sambo and Mattias Åhrén (Arctic), Raja Devashish Roy, Victoria Tauli-Corpuz and Joan Carling (Asia), Hector Huertas, Azelene Kaingang, and José Carlos Morales (Latin America and the Caribbean), Andrea Carmen and Chief Ed John (North America), Les Malezer (chair) and Mililani Kay 246 / Notes Trask (Pacific), Mikael Todyshev (Russia and Eastern Europe), and Saodata Aboubacrine and Hassan Idbalkassm Africa). 21. Author’s notes from these meetings. 22. For a thorough report and analysis of the Declaration process, see Åhrén 2007. 23. For a detailed account of these processes, see Dahl 2009. 24. It seems as if the discussion will never disappear. At the Permanent Forum meeting in 2011, the issue was raised again by the then former member of the Permanent Forum, Willie (Wilton) Littlechild, who would have “peoples” inserted instead of “issues” as an act of reconciliation. 25. For more detailed information about the process and the establishment of the Permanent Forum, see Dahl 2009 García-Alix 1999a, 1999b, and 2003. 26. For factual information about the Permanent Forum, see www.un.org/esa/ socdev/unpfii. 27. In support of local indigenous organizations, the issue was raised by the International Work Group for Indigenous Affairs (IWGIA) and the International Land Coalition (ILC). 28.

Tennant (1994) thus talks about the “ILO Period from 1945–1958” due to the dominance of the ILO during these years. 31. The Fund was founded by IWGIA, Anti-Slavery International, Gesellschaft für Bedrohte Völker, KWIA (Belgium), and NCIV (The Netherlands). Gesellschaft withdrew in 2007 but the Spanish NGO, Almáciga is now included. For the role of this Fund, see Dahl 2009 and Cohen 1993. 32. www.ohchr.org. 33. The name was originally “Special Rapporteur on the Situation of the Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms of Indigenous People.” 34. The members were John Bernhard Henriksen (Norway), Jannie Lasimbang (Malaysia), José Carlos Morales (Costa Rica), José Molintas (the Philippines), and Caterine Odimba Kome (Congo). The current (December 2011) mem- bers are Vital Bambanze (Burundi), Anastasia Chukhman (Russia), Jannie Lasimbang (Malaysia), Wilton Littlechild (Canada), and José Carlos Morales (Costa Rica). 35. The intricacies of these meetings have also been dealt with in Gray 1992. 36. As Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Social Commissioner, Michael Dodson was one of the people behind the “Bringing Them Home Report” from 1997, which brought the issue into the public eye.

Introduction The existence of a positive (self) image of a people is very important in the successful struggle for self-determination. An image can be constructed through various methods. This paper deals with the way in which an incorrect image of the Rehoboth Basters was constructed via the literature. Subjects that are considered interesting or popular, usually have a great number of different publications and authors. A large quantity of publications almost inevitably means that there is more information available on that specific topic. A large number of publications usually also indicates a great amount of authors who bring in many different views and interpretations.

Author’s Note I learned such a great deal from this entire honors capstone project, that all the knowledge I have acquired can hardly be covered by what I wrote in these 50 pages. I learned so much more that I was not able to share both about Namibia and myself. I can now claim that I am knowledgeable about nearly all areas of Namibian history and life. I certainly am no expert, but after all of this research I can certainly consider myself reliable. I have never had such an extensive knowledge before of one academic area as a result of a school project. I also learned a lot about myself through this project. I learned how I can motivate myself to work, and I learned how I perform when I have to organize such a long and complicated paper, just to name a couple of things. The strange inability to be able to include everything I learned from doing this project is the reason for some of the more random appendices at the end, as I have a passion for both numbers and trivia.

  • AFRICAN STUDIES INSTITUTE SEMINAR the Rehoboth Rebellion
    The Gubblns Library, AFRICAN STUDIES INSTITUTE SEMINAR The Rehoboth Rebellion by P. Pearson At dawn on the 5th of April 1925, a force of 621 men comprising citizen force troops and police surrounded the town of Rehoboth in South West Africa. Their object was to secure the arrest of three men who had failed to respond to summonses issued under the stock branding proclamation. Seven days previously a large group of supporters had prevented three local policemen from entering the building where the men were staying. In response to this act of defiance, the Administrator had mobilized the citizen force in nine districts and declared (2) martial law in Rehoboth. At 7am a messenger entered the town carrying an ultimatum from Col. de Jager, commander of the troops. It called for an unconditional surrender by 8am. The rebels asked for more time in order to evacuate the women and children, but at 8.15am three aeroplanes fitted with machine guns flew low over the town and the soldiers charged. Faced with this vastly superior force, the rebels offered little resistance, and no shots were fired. The soldiers and policemen were spurred on by de Jager to attack their opponents with sticks arid rifle butts. Women and children who surrounded the rebel headquarters in an attempt to (4) protect their menfolk inside were also quickly dealt with in this way. Six hundred and thirty two people were arrested on charges of illegal assembly and 304 firearms were confiscated. All of the weapons were subsequently declared 'unservicablef and destroyed. Organised resistance had begun some twenty months earlier on the 17th of August 1923.

  • “In Principle”: Sto:Lo Political Organizations and Attitudes Towards Treaty Since 1969
    “In Principle”: Sto:lo Political Organizations and Attitudes Towards Treaty Since 1969 By Byron Plant Term Paper History 526 May 6 - June 7 2002 Sto:lo Ethnohistory Field School Instructors: Dr. John Lutz and Keith Carlson Due: Friday, 5 July 2002 1 This essay topic was initially selected from those compiled by the Sto:lo Nation and intended to examine Sto:lo attitudes towards treaty since 1860. While certainly a pertinent and interesting question to examine, two difficulties arose during my initial research. One was the logistical question of condensing a century and a half of change into such a short paper while at the same time giving due consideration to the many social, political, and economic changes of that time. Two, little to no work has been done on tracing how exactly Sto:lo political attitudes have been voiced over time. While names such as the East Fraser District Council, Chilliwack Area Indian Council, and Coqualeetza regularly appear throughout documentary and oral sources, no one has actually outlined what these organizations were, why they formed, and where they went. Consequently, through consultation and several revisions with Dave Smith, Keith Carlson, and John Lutz, the scope of the paper was narrowed down to the period from 1969 to the present and opened up to questions about Sto:lo political and administrative organizations. Through study of the motivations, ideals, and legacies of these organizations and their participants, I hope to then examine treaty attitudes and to what extent treaties influenced Sto:lo political activity over the past thirty years. In hindsight, I can see how study of any individual Sto:lo organization is capable of constituting a full paper in itself.

  • 1 Ethnic Stratification and the Equilibrium of Inequality: Ethnic
    Ethnic Stratification and the Equilibrium of Inequality: Ethnic Conflict in Post-colonial States Manuel Vogt 13,937 words 1 Acknowledgments The author wishes to thank Lars-Erik Cederman, Carles Boix, Paul Huth, Nils-Christian Bor- mann, Dan Siegel, Matthijs Bogaards, Tom Pavone, Mark Beissinger, Simon Hug, as well as three anonymous reviewers of the journal for their valuable comments and suggestions. I would also like to express my gratitude to the participants of the Race, Ethnicity, and Identity workshop at Princeton University and the University of Maryland colloquium where I presented this work. The data used in this article can be accessed on the journal’s replication website. 2 Manuel Vogt ETH Zürich [email protected] 3 Ethnic Stratification and the Equilibrium of Inequality: Ethnic Conflict in Post-colonial States Manuel Vogt Why are ethnic movements more likely to turn violent in some multiethnic countries than in oth- ers? Focusing on the long-term legacies of European overseas colonialism, this article investi- gates the effect of distinct ethnic cleavage types on the consequences of ethnic group mobiliza- tion. It argues that the colonial settler states and other stratified multiethnic states are charac- terized by an equilibrium of inequality, in which historically marginalized groups lack both the organizational strength and the opportunities for armed rebellion. In contrast, ethnic mobiliza- tion in the decolonized states and other segmented multiethnic societies is more likely to trigger violent conflict. The paper tests these arguments in a global quantitative study from 1946 to 2009, using new data on the linguistic and religious segmentation of ethnic groups.

  • Community Economic Development ~ Indigenous Engagement Strategy for Momentum, Calgary Alberta 2016
    Community Economic Development ~ Indigenous Engagement Strategy for Momentum, Calgary Alberta 2016 1 Research and report prepared for Momentum by Christy Morgan and Monique Fry April 2016 2 Executive Summary ~ Momentum & Indigenous Community Economic Development: Two worldviews yet working together for change Momentum is a Community Economic Development (CED) organization located in Calgary, Alberta. Momentum partners with people living on low income to increase prosperity and support the development of local economies with opportunities for all. Momentum currently operates 18 programs in Financial Literacy, Skills Training and Business Development. Momentum began the development of an Indigenous Engagement Strategy (IES) in the spring of 2016. This process included comparing the cultural elements of the Indigenous community and Momentum’s programing, defining success, and developing a learning strategy for Momentum. Data was collected through interviews, community information sessions, and an online survey. The information collected was incorporated into Momentum’s IES. Commonalities were identified between Momentum’s approach to CED based on poverty reduction and sustainable livelihoods, and an Indigenous CED approach based on cultural caring and sharing for collective wellbeing. Both approaches emphasize changing social conditions which result in a community that is better at meeting the needs of all its members. They share a focus on local, grassroots development, are community orientated, and are holistic strength based approaches. The care taken by Momentum in what they do and how they do it at a personal, program and organizational level has parallels to the shared responsibility held within Indigenous communities. Accountability for their actions before their stakeholders and a deep-rooted concern for the wellbeing of others are keystones in both approaches.

Irmengard Rauch & Thomas Shannon, Co-Chairs Speakers of German and Afrikaans have been interacting with one another in Southern Africa for over three hundred and fifty years. In this study, the linguistic results of this intra- Germanic contact are addressed and divided into two sections: 1) the influence of German (both Low and High German) on Cape Dutch/Afrikaans in the years 1652–1810; and 2) the influence of Afrikaans on Namibian German in the years 1840–present. The focus here has been on the lexicon, since lexemes are the first items to be borrowed in contact situations, though other grammatical borrowings come under scrutiny as well. The guiding principle of this line of inquiry is how the cognitive phenonemon of Herbartian apperception, or, Peircean abduction, has driven the bulk of the borrowings between the languages.
