    OSO. Tijdschrift voor Surinaamse taalkunde, letterkunde en geschiedenis. Jaargang 9 bron OSO. Tijdschrift voor Surinaamse taalkunde, letterkunde en geschiedenis. Jaargang 9. Stichting Instituut ter Bevordering van de Surinamistiek, Nijmegen 1990 Zie voor verantwoording: https://www.dbnl.org/tekst/_oso001199001_01/colofon.php Let op: werken die korter dan 140 jaar geleden verschenen zijn, kunnen auteursrechtelijk beschermd zijn. 2 [Nummer 1] Afbeelding omslag De afbeelding op de omslag stelt een maluana voor. Dit is een ronde houten schijf van bijna een meter middellijn, die door de Wayana-Indianen in Suriname wordt gebruikt om in ronde huizen de nok van binnen af te sluiten. Gezien het feit dat het Surinaamse woord OSO ‘huis’ betekent, heeft de maluana voor ons een belangrijke symbolische betekenis. Op deze maluana, waarvan het origineel in het Academiegebouw te Leiden te zien is, zijn aan weerszijden van het middelpunt figuren afgebeeld die een zogenaamde Kuluwayak voorstellen, een dier (geest) met twee koppen en kuifveren. Foto Prentenkabinet Rijksuniversiteit Leiden. OSO. Tijdschrift voor Surinaamse taalkunde, letterkunde en geschiedenis. Jaargang 9 5 Woord vooraf Dit eerste nummer van de negende jaar van OSO toont een gewijzigde opmaak, als gevolg van een verandering in de produktiewijze. We hopen dat onze lezers er een verbetering in zien. Voor commentaar en suggesties houden we ons aanbevolen. De inhoud van dit nummer is, zoals bij het eerste nummer van een jaargang inmiddels traditie is, gevarieerd. Drie artikelen gaan echter over nauw verwante onderwerpen, namelijk Surinaamse namen: Just Wekker schrijft over de aardrijkskundige namen van indiaanse oorsprong, Alex van Stipriaan over plantagenamen en creoolse familienamen en Man A Hing over Chinese familienamen.

  • A Revision of the South American Fishes of the Genus Nannostomus Giinther (Family Lebiasinidae)
    A Revision of the South American Fishes of the Genus Nannostomus Giinther (Family Lebiasinidae) STANLEY H. WEITZMAN and J. STANLEY COBB SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 186 SERIAL PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION The emphasis upon publications as a means of diffusing knowledge was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. In his formal plan for the Insti- tution, Joseph Henry articulated a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This keynote of basic research has been adhered to over the years in the issuance of thousands of titles in serial publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Annals of Flight Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the research and collections of its several museums and offices and of professional colleagues at other institutions of learning. These papers report newly acquired facts, synoptic interpretations of data, or original theory in specialized fields. These pub- lications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, laboratories, and other interested institutions and specialists throughout the world. Individual copies may be obtained from the Smithsonian Institution Press as long as stocks are available.

  • Suriname 2019 Crime and Safety Report
    Suriname 2019 Crime and Safety Report This is an annual report produced in conjunction with the Regional Security Office at the U.S. Embassy in Paramaribo. The current U.S. Department of State Travel Advisory at the date of this report’s publication assesses Suriname at Level 1, indicating travelers should exercise normal precautions. Overall Crime and Safety Situation The U.S. Embassy in Paramaribo does not assume responsibility for the professional ability or integrity of the persons or firms appearing in this report. The American Citizens’ Services unit (ACS) cannot recommend a particular individual or location, and assumes no responsibility for the quality of service provided. Review OSAC’s Suriname-specific page for original OSAC reporting, consular messages, and contact information, some of which may be available only to private-sector representatives with an OSAC password. Crime Threats There is considerable risk from crime in Paramaribo. Government statistics indicate a modest increase in personal and property crime in 2018, following an overall reduction in 2017 and elevated rates in 2016. Street crimes, including theft of backpacks, purses, jewelry (particularly necklaces), and cell phones are regular occurrences. Reports indicate criminals often use weapons against victims in the commission of street crimes, particularly when victims resist. Perpetrators often escape by moped or motorbike, and evade police capture. Armed robbers targeted several expatriates walking in close proximity to popular hotels and near Combe Market. No areas of Paramaribo are completely safe. Criminals move without restriction into and out of neighborhoods where expatriates live, often using scooters or motorcycles to evade police. In one reported case in 2018, a burglar tied up a guard in an affluent neighborhood, while in another instance two burglars violently assaulted and robbed a guard attempting to deny gate access.

Copyright Putting Matawai on the Surinamese Linguistic Map* Bettina Migge, University College Dublin The creoles of Suriname have figured prominently in research on creole languages. However, one variety, Matawai, has to date remained completely unresearched. This paper attempts to address this lacuna. It discusses its history and selected areas of grammar in order to assess the place of Matawai among its sister languages and its development. The linguistic analysis draws on recordings from 2013 and the 1970s. The paper provides evidence to support the view that Matawai is most closely related to Saamaka. However, there are also features that are unique to Matawai and those that appear to be due to either patterns of language contact with the other creoles of Suriname or common inheritance.

    Electoral Observations in the Americas Series, No. 32 Electoral Observation in Suriname 2000 Secretary General César Gaviria Assistant Secretary General Luigi R.

Spehar This publication is part of a series of UPD publications of the General Secretariat of the Organization of American States. The ideas, thoughts, and opinions expressed are not necessarily those of the OAS or its member states. The opinions expressed are the responsibility of the authors. Electoral Observation in Suriname 2000 General Secretariat Organization of American States Washington, D.C. 20006 2002 This report was produced under the technical supervision of Ambassador Colin Granderson, of Trinidad, Chief of the Electoral Observation Mission and Bruce Rickerson, Deputy Chief of the Mission, and Senior Specialist of the Unit for the Promotion of Democracy (UPD). Copyright @ 2002 by OAS. All rights reserved. This publication may be reproduced provided credit is given to the source. Foreword Democratic ideals and principles have always been present in the inter- American system. The Charter of Bogotá, establishing the Organization of American States (OAS), formally proclaimed in 1948 that "the solidarity of the American States and the high aims which are sought through it require the political organization of those States on the basis of the effective exercise of representative democracy." Forty years later, the Protocol of Cartagena de Indias emphatically reaffirmed this principle, including among the essential purposes of the Organization the promotion and strengthening of representative democracy. The signature of the Protocol gave rise to an unprecedented renewal of the commitment of the member states to defending and building democracy.
