  • A Spatio-Thematic Analysis of Violent Conflicts in Northern Ghana Between 2007 and 2013
    conflict & communication online, Vol. 15, No. 2, 2016 www.cco.regener-online.de ISSN 1618-0747 Patrick Osei-Kufuor, Stephen B Kendie & Kwaku Adutwum Boakye Conflict, peace and development: A spatio-thematic analysis of violent conflicts in Northern Ghana between 2007 and 2013 Kurzfassung: Der vorliegende Aufsatz enthält Informationen und Landkarten zur räumlichen und zeitlichen Dynamik gewaltförmiger Konflikte im Norden Ghanas und fokussiert deren Struktur, Ursachen und Entwicklungstand. Die primären Daten der Studie wurden in ausgewählten Konfliktherden erhoben und dienen zur Validierung der sekundären Informationen, die den Berichten zweier nationaler Tageszeitungen entnommen wurden. Infolge seiner großen ethnischen Heterogenität und des Kampfes um Anerkennung und Dominanz zwischen den ethnischen Gruppen liegen die Konfliktzonen hauptsächlich in der östlichen Region Nord-Ghanas. Konfliktursachen sind Ethnizität, Häuptlingschaft, Religion, Politik, Urbanisierung, Verteilungskämpfe und der Kampf um Anerkennung. Viele der Konflikte sind nach wie vor ungelöst. Da sie den Akzent mehr auf die Auslöser der Gewalt denn auf die tiefer liegenden Streitfragen gelegt haben, blieb Vermittlungsversuchen im Allgemeinen nur ein kurzfristiger Stabilisierungserfolg beschieden. Für einen dauerhaften Frieden im Norden Ghanas müssen Regierung und Zivilgesellschaft den strukturellen Konfliktursachen größere Aufmerksamkeit schenken. Die Nationalversammlung der Häuptlinge muss Regeln und Praktiken und Bräuche der Weitergabe von Autorität kodifizieren. Um Grenzen festzuschreiben und Konflikte um Land und Boden zu reduzieren, muss der Staat die Vergabe von Landtiteln vorantreiben. Abstract: This study provides in text and in maps the spatial and temporal dynamics of violent conflicts in Northern Ghana focusing on their structure, causes and status. Primary data was collected from identified conflict hotspots to validate secondary information collected from two national dailies.

  • Relevance of Indigenous Conflict Management Mechanisms: Evidence from Bunkpurugu-Yunyoo and Central Gonja Districts of Northern Region, Ghana
    Relevance of Indigenous Conflict Management Mechanisms: Evidence from Bunkpurugu-Yunyoo and Central Gonja Districts of Northern Region, Ghana Mohammed Gadafi Ibrahim (Corresponding author) School for Development Studies, College of Humanities and Legal Studies, University of Cape Coast, Cape Coast, Ghana Email: [email protected] Joseph Kingley Adjei Department of Sociology and Anthropology, College of Humanities and Legal Studies, University of Cape Coast, Cape Coast, Ghana Joseph Agyanim Boateng School for Development Studies, College of Humanities and Legal Studies, University of Cape Coast, Cape Coast, Ghana DOI//http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/gjds.v16i1.2 ABSTRACT The Northern Region is witnessing protracted and relapsed conflicts, and attempts at resolving these largely through Western models, particularly the formal court system have not been successful. As such, this study explores the relevance of indigenous conflict management mechanisms in restoring enduring peace in theN orthern Region of Ghana. The study employed a multiple case study design. Data was collected from forty- three purposively selected respondents using interviews, focus group discussions, and observations. The results from thematic and cross-site analysis revealed that indigenous mechanisms have features of inclusive participatory approach at all levels of the conflict leading to acceptable outcomes. The traditional mechanisms have proven to be immediate and meaningful, accessible, and affordable. The use of local languages is well understood by all parties and processes and procedure are well attuned to local needs as they produce quick justice for the people. The development of a comprehensive programme to incorporate aspects of both the indigenous and western-centred judicial structures for the purposes of legitimacy of management outcomes is proposed.

While the western branch of the Diakhanke in Senegambia and Guinea has received much attention from researchers2, the southern branch of mori lineages with their imamates extending from Dia/Djenne up the river Bani and its branches have been almost ignored. It has established centres of learning along the major southern trade routes and in the Sassandra- Bandama-Comoë-Volta river basins up to the Akan frontier3. The Kamaghate imamate has been established with the Gonja in the Volta basin but can be traced back to the Jula/Soninke of Begho, Kong, Samatiguila, Odienne and ultimately to the region of Djenne and Dia.
