  • Ton Dietz University of Leiden, African Studies Centre Leiden META KNOWLEDGE ABOUT AREAS. the EXAMPLE of POKOT
    Ton Dietz University of Leiden, African Studies Centre Leiden META KNOWLEDGE ABOUT AREAS. THE EXAMPLE OF POKOT Paper for the Africa Knows! Conference, panel 16: “Country/Region-specific Knowledge Development Histories in Africa” Abstract Area studies have a long history, and so have academic centres dealing with specific areas (like the African Studies Centres) or the specific journals dealing with certain areas (like the Journal of Eastern African Studies). However, very few area studies specialists use an approach to study the historical development of knowledge about a specific area, as a kind of meta knowledge study. In this paper I will try to show what the knowledge development history is about the areas of the Pokot in Kenya and Uganda: what is the 'harvest' of specific knowledge about that area and its people? Who did influence whom? Where did the people come from who studied that area, and how did that change during a 150-year long period of written sources about the area? And what does it tell us about the 'knowledge hypes', the major topics studied in particular periods? With the assistance of google scholar it is possible to reconstruct the networks of references used in academic (and other) studies, next to doing a detailed analysis of the references used in scholarly work about an area. One of the interesting aspects in this paper will be the study of the types of sources used: academic/non-academic, languages used, disciplines used or neglected. This is work in progress. As an hypothesis we can already formulate the statement that the specific topic studied about an area often tells more about the (scientific/societal) questions relevant to the countries where scholars come from, than about the questions that are relevant for the situation in the particular area that is being studied.

  • KENYA• Floods and Landslides Vol. 2
    KENYA • Floods and Landslides Vol. 2: Focus on Marakwet 3.05.2010 This report was issued by OCHA Kenya with information received from the Government of Kenya, Kenya Red Cross Society (KRCS), and media reports. It covers the period from 30 April-3May. The next report will be issued in accordance with developments on response. Highlights • Mudslide kills 11 and displaces more than 600 people in Marakwet District • Eight people with serious injuries airlifted • Rescue and response operations are underway • Floods displace hundreds in Moyale District Situation Update 11 people have so far been confirmed dead and another 600 displaced when a mud slide occurred in Kitony Village, Marakwet District, located in north western Kenya. An additional eight people with serious injuries are receiving specialized treatment at Moi Referral Hospital. The mudslide occurred when River Siner changed its course at Kitony village. Seven houses were swept away. The Kenya Red Cross Society (KRCS) and other governmental and UN partners are offering humanitarian response to those affected. An assessment to establish gaps and needs of the affected population is necessary. Access to the affected village has been difficult given the wet conditions and hilly topography of the area. Rocks and stones at the site are also hampering rescue efforts. Responders to those affected are reported to be walking for up to 3km to reach the site. Marakwet East District was carved from the greater Marakwet District. The National Bureau of Statistics indicates that the greater Marakwet District has a total population of 140,629 people. A mudslide occurred at the area in March 2009.
