A Study of Food, Family & Nation Among the Garifuna of Honduras
© COPYRIGHT by Kia M. Q. Hall 2014 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED for those who came before me laid the foundation paid the tolls created the path grandma gertie lou & grandpa george, papa, granny for those who crossed over during this journey you are missed i carry on with your spirit guiding me dad, aunt grace, four hundred, brother with love BAKING EREBA, EXPANDING CAPABILITIES: A STUDY OF FOOD, FAMILY & NATION AMONG THE GARIFUNA OF HONDURAS BY Kia M. Q. Hall ABSTRACT My dissertation examines the ways in which the poor and rural women of the matrifocal Garifuna community of Honduras are using the culinary tradition of making cassava bread (or ereba in the Garifuna language) to advance community development. I thus respond to the following research questions: How are Honduras’ ereba makers engaging in grassroots development? What concepts can be best used to understand and describe the ereba makers’ engagement in development work? Building upon the capability approaches to development, which evaluate development in terms of the opportunities individuals have to be and do what they value, this dissertation focuses on the agency and opportunities of rural villagers. Guided by a Black feminist epistemology that seeks to capture voices that have been excluded and/or marginalized in mainstream Western discourse, and specifically in international relations (IR) and international development (ID), this dissertation proposes a transnational Black feminist (TBF) framework as an alternative to the race- and class-biased models of IR. Further, a multi-level capabilities approach that parallels the TBF framework is introduced. The multi-level capabilities approach extends capabilities beyond individuals to analyze families, nations, states and social movements. -

Summary of the Terminal Evaluation Results 1. Outline of the Project Project Title: Project for Strengthening Country: Republic of Honduras Adolescent Reproductive Health in Olancho Department in Honduras Issue/Sector: Health/Maternal and Child Cooperation Scheme: Technical Cooperation Health, Reproductive Health Project Division in Charge: Health Division 4, Total Cost (as of the moment of this evaluation): Human Development Department 383 million yen Partner Country’s Implementation Organization: Ministry of Health (Headquarter, Health Region Period of (R/D): June 2008 – May 2012, No.15) Cooperation 4 years) Supporting Organization in Japan: System Science Consultants Inc., NPO Health and Development Service (HANDS) 1-1. Background of the Project In the Republic of Honduras (hereinafter referred to as Honduras), 39% of the total population is under 15 years of age (World Health Organization: WHO, 2006), and the pregnancy in adolescence has been increasing, given the high proportion of the population of teenagers. Under the circumstance, deliveries at health facilities by women in adolescent years reached to 35% (Ministry of Health of Honduras, 2001) and the maternal mortality of young women has risen, as high as 391 out of 100,000 for the age group of 12-14 and 160 for the age group of 15-19. It is considered that the pregnancy in adolescence increases the risks of maternal and perinatal mortality, and it is a social issue associated with poverty, which can result in not only the unintended pregnancy but also the Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) and HIV/AIDS. It also has negative influences on the growing up process and the issues related to school attendance and education. -

West and Terry G. Jordan, two great geographers, and to all the wonderful Hondurans from whom I learned. Acknowledgements I have shared several bottles of Flor de Caña with a small group of geographers who have all played a role in my academic development. The group – Scott Brady, Craig Revels, Taylor Mack, Ricky Samson, and Bill Davidson – shares a love for Honduras, fieldwork, and interesting geography, discussions of which helped in the development of this study. I look forward to a career of collaboration and to more fun and interesting conversations and trips with these people. Bill Davidson introduced me to geography. He and his wife, Sharon, have been good friends to me since. I am ever grateful. Here at UT, many have helped me as I stepped through the Ph.D. -
Rediscovery of the Honduran Emerald Amazilia Luciae in Western Honduras
Bird Conservation International (2010) 20:255–262. ª BirdLife International, 2010 doi:10.1017/S0959270910000389 Rediscovery of the Honduran Emerald Amazilia luciae in western Honduras: insights on the distribution, ecology, and conservation of a ’Critically Endangered’ hummingbird DAVID L. ANDERSON, PAUL HOUSE, ROBERT E. HYMAN, RICARDO STEINER, H. ROSS HAWKINS, SHERRY THORN, MANUEL J. REY, MARIO R. ESPINAL and LEONEL E. MARINEROS Summary The Honduran Emerald Amazilia luciae is endemic to dry forests of Honduras and currently recognised as ‘Critically Endangered.’ Here we present the first modern assessment of its distribution, ecology, and conservation, based partly on our rediscovery of the species in western Honduras and on our observations in three Honduran departments. We found that dry forests inhabited by the emerald differed in structure and species composition between eastern and western Honduras, where we observed emeralds in open-canopied deciduous thorn forests and closed-canopied semi-deciduous woodlands, respectively. We interpret these differences in light of the geological and anthropogenic origins of dry forests in Honduras, and discuss the implications of such origins for the conservation of dry forests. Although our findings expand the known distribution and population size of the species, its status as ‘Critically Endangered’ is warranted due to its restricted distribution in dry forest fragments and increasing human pressures on this habitat. Resumen El Esmeralda Honduren˜ o Amazilia luciae es una especie ende´mica del bosque seco en Honduras que actualmente es considerada Criticamente Amenazada. Presentamos la primera evaluacio´n moderna de su distribucio´n, ecologı´a, y estado de conservacio´n, con base en nuestro reciente redescubrimiento de la especie en el oeste de Honduras y en nuestras observaciones en tres departamentos honduren˜ os. -

Original approval signatures are on file with the University of Oregon Graduate School. Degree awarded September 2020. ii © 2020 Alberto Lioy iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Alberto Lioy Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science September 2020 Title: Electoral Revolutions: A Comparative Study of Rapid Changes in Voter Turnout In the political science scholarship on democratic elections, aggregate voter turnout is assumed to be stable, and depends upon an acquired habit across the electorate. Large turnout variations in a short period of time are therefore usually attributed to negligible contextual factors. This work establishes that such variations are more frequent than commonly thought and creates a novel theoretical framework and methodological approach for systematically studying rapid changes in voter turnout across Western Europe and Latin America. I attribute dramatic changes in voters’ participation, labeled electoral revolutions, to transformations in the party system competition and institutional credibility happening inside the national political context. -
