  • Prologue This Report Is Submitted Pursuant to the ―United Nations Participation Act of 1945‖ (Public Law 79-264)
    Prologue This report is submitted pursuant to the ―United Nations Participation Act of 1945‖ (Public Law 79-264). Section 4 of this law provides, in part, that: ―The President shall from time to time as occasion may require, but not less than once each year, make reports to the Congress of the activities of the United Nations and of the participation of the United States therein.‖ In July 2003, the President delegated to the Secretary of State the authority to transmit this report to Congress. The United States Participation in the United Nations report is a survey of the activities of the U.S. Government in the United Nations and its agencies, as well as the activities of the United Nations and those agencies themselves. More specifically, this report seeks to assess UN achievements during 2007, the effectiveness of U.S. participation in the United Nations, and whether U.S. goals were advanced or thwarted. The United States is committed to the founding ideals of the United Nations. Addressing the UN General Assembly in 2007, President Bush said: ―With the commitment and courage of this chamber, we can build a world where people are free to speak, assemble, and worship as they wish; a world where children in every nation grow up healthy, get a decent education, and look to the future with hope; a world where opportunity crosses every border. America will lead toward this vision where all are created equal, and free to pursue their dreams. This is the founding conviction of my country. It is the promise that established this body.

  • Witchcraft, Violence and Everyday Life: an Ethnographic Study of Kinshasa
    WITCHCRAFT, VIOLENCE AND EVERYDAY LIFE: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC STUDY OF KINSHASA A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY BY SILVIA DE FAVERI COLLEGE OF BUSINESS, ARTS AND SOCIAL SCIENCES DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SCIENCES, MEDIA AND COMMUNICATIONS DIVISION OF ANTHROPOLOGY BRUNEL UNIVERSITY OCTOBER 2014 Abstract The inhabitants of Kinshasa, who call themselves Kinois, deal with insecurity and violence on a daily basis. Cheating and thefts are commonplace, and pillaging by street gangs and robberies by armed thieves are everyday occurrences. The state infrastructure is so poorly regulated that deaths by accident or medical negligence are also common. This, and much more, contributes to a challenging social milieu within which the Kinois’ best hope is simply to ‘make do’. This thesis, based on extensive fieldwork in Kinshasa, analyses different forms of violence which affect the Kinois on a daily basis. I argue that the Kinois’ concept of violence, mobulu, differs from Western definitions, which define violence as an intrinsically negative and destructive force. Mobulu is for the Kinois a potentially constructive phenomenon, which allows them to build relationships, coping strategies and new social phenomena. Violence is perceived as a transformative force, through which people build meaningful lives in the face of the hardship of everyday life. Broadly speaking, this thesis contributes to the Anthropology of violence which has too often focused on how violence is imposed upon a population, often from a structural level of a state and its institutions. Such an approach fails to account for the nuances of alternate perspectives of what ‘violence’ is, as evidenced in this thesis through the prism of the Kinois term mobulu.

  • Embodied Histories, Danced Religions, Performed Politics: Kongo Cultural Performance and the Production of History and Authority
    Embodied Histories, Danced Religions, Performed Politics: Kongo Cultural Performance and the Production of History and Authority by Yolanda Denise Covington A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Anthropology) in The University of Michigan 2008 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Elisha P. Renne, Chair Associate Professor Kelly M. Askew Associate Professor Mbala D. Nkanga Assistant Professor Julius S. Scott III © Yolanda Denise Covington 2008 To my grandmother NeNe ii Acknowledgements When I look back on my experiences, it seems as if I was guided by some unseen hand. From my acceptance into the A Better Chance Program for high school, to my career switch from medicine to anthropology/Africana Studies at Brown University, to my trips to Panama, and finally to Congo while at the University of Michigan, I often felt as if my path was being determined by someone else and I was just traveling along it. Along the way, however, I met many wonderful people who have played crucial roles in my journey, and I have to thank them for getting me here. This dissertation is really a collaborative project, for I could not have completed it without the guidance and assistance of so many people. The first person I have to thank is my grandmother, who has inspired and encouraged from my days at C.E.S. 110X in the Bronx. She has always been supportive and continues to push me to reach my highest potential. I could not have reached this point without a great support system and wonderful dissertation committee.

  • Births, Deaths, Labour and Militarized Border-Crossing Among Sex Workers in an Area of Armed Conflict in Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo
    Chercher La Vie : Births, Deaths, Labour and Militarized Border-Crossing among Sex Workers in an Area of Armed Conflict in Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo by Anna-Louise Crago A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Anthropology Department University of Toronto © Copyright by Anna-Louise Crago 2020 Chercher La Vie : Births, Deaths, Labour and Militarized Border- Crossing among Sex Workers in an Area of Armed Conflict in Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo Anna-Louise Crago Doctor of Philosophy Anthropology University of Toronto 2020 Abstract This dissertation is a study of sociality and power in armed conflict. It is based on ethnographic research with two groups of women who sell sex in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, self-identified “ bambaragas ”. These women travel back and forth across militarized lines in areas of armed conflict to perform sex work and other complementary labour and to trade with a variety of different state and non-state armed groups. This study argues that any attempt to understand sociality and power in war must grapple centrally with non-violent death. The combined effects of armed conflict and privatization contributed to mass infant, child and maternal death. Bambaragas and their children bore a distinct and disproportionate death burden. Hospitals sat at the intersection of governance of health as a private commodity rather than a public entitlement, by both the state and non-state armed groups. This resulted in policies within hospitals of refusing emergency care, abusing and punishing women suspected of abortion, imposing debt and extracting payment, and forcibly detaining women who couldn’t pay for their or their children’s care.
