ABSTRACT TRANSFORMING WEST ZAMBIA FIELD OF SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS TO CONFERENCE STATUS: A CASE STUDY by Passmore Hachalinga Advisor: Skip Bell, DMin ABSTRACT OF GRADUATE STUDENT RESEARCH Dissertation Andrews University Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary Title: TRANSFORMING WEST ZAMBIA FIELD OF SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS TO CONFERENCE STATUS: A CASE STUDY Name of researcher: Passmore Hachalinga Name of advisor: Skip Bell, DMin. Date completed: August 2010 Problem The Seventh-day Adventist Church in the Southern Africa-lndian Ocean Division (SID) experiences annua] baptized membership growth of 5 — 7 percent. This membership growth rate however has not resulted in church organizational self- support. Efforts implemented by the SID administration to bring local fields to the required level of self-support, or conference status, in a timely manner failed to yield expected results during the 2005 - 2010 periods. This study project seeks to address this challenge by conducting a case study of West Zambia Field of Seventh-day Adventists. Method An assessment was conducted in the West Zambia Field of Sev enth-day Adventists using both quantitative and qualitative methods to find out why West Zambia Field has not attained conference status. The assessment evaluated the six field administrators' understanding of what constitutes conference status and what challenges hindered the mission field from attaining conference status in a timely manner. Results The assessment results revealed a lack of understanding by th e field administrators with regard to what constitutes conference status. Field administrators were implementing strategies which failed to yield the required results. The study also revealed that the West Zambia Field region experienced socio-economic disruptions during the colonial and post-independence periods which are mirrored in the operations of the field. Conclusions This study project recommends strategic steps for transforming West Zambia Field to conference status in a timely manner. When the field becomes a conference it will strengthen the Adventist church organization in Zambia Union and SID respectively while hastening the soon coming of Jesus Christ.

  • Think (Capitalist) and Grow Rich
    CCK-19 INSTITUTE OF CURRENT WORLD AFFAIRS Think (capitalist) .and grow rich Casey C. Kelso Lusaka, Zambia May 1993 Peter Bird Martin Institute of Current World Affairs 4 West Wheel ock Street Hanover, New Hampshire, USA Dear Peter- Alfred Chioza's greed got away from him. The Zambian businessman turned farmer planted 22 acres of burley tobacco. He expected huge profits in the new free-market agricultural economy, so he figured more acres meant more money. Maybe. But it also meant a tobacco glut of horror film proportions. Now, at harvest time, the brown leaves are tied into clumps and not only packed into two huge thatch-roofed barns at his farm in Zambia's Eastern Province. Stacks of drying tobacco fill the tractor sheds, displace cars from the carport and rise to the rafters of his guest house. Inside Chioza's home, leaves hang from ceiling lights. Behind a little pass window opening onto the kitchen, densely packed tobacco ascends to the ceiling. Last year, Chioza was a wheeler-dealer selling imported South African goods at a 500 percent mark-up in the capital, Lusaka. This year, he lives in a newly built house in the countryside, where he is watching his tobacco harvest fill every available space. "I may be a farmer bearing an 'L' badge for 'learner' on my back, but I believe there is a lot of future in farming now," he said. Chioza's change in attitude underscores a dramatic transformation of agriculture taking place in Zambia. For decades, many Zambians thought of farming as the demeaning and unremunerative toil of a peasant or as the unattainable economies of scale of huge, white-owned commercial farms.

  • Conflict Prevention in the Greater Horn of Africa
    UNITED STATES INSTITUTE OF PEACE Simulation on Conflict Prevention in the Greater Horn of Africa This simulation, while focused around the Ethiopia-Eritrea border conflict, is not an attempt to resolve that conflict: the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) already has a peace plan on the table to which the two parties in conflict have essentially agreed. Rather, participants are asked, in their roles as representatives of OAU member states, to devise a blueprint for preventing the Ethiopian-Eritrean conflict from spreading into neighboring countries and consuming the region in even greater violence. The conflict, a great concern particularly for Somalia and Sudan where civil wars have raged for years, has thrown regional alliances into confusion and is increasingly putting pressure on humanitarian NGOs and other regional parties to contain the conflict. The wars in the Horn of Africa have caused untold death and misery over the past few decades. Simulation participants are asked as well to deal with the many refugees and internally displaced persons in the Horn of Africa, a humanitarian crisis that strains the economies – and the political relations - of the countries in the region. In their roles as OAU representatives, participants in this intricate simulation witness first-hand the tremendous challenge of trying to obtain consensus among multiple actors with often competing agendas on the tools of conflict prevention.

His PhD (from Oxford University) was a political biography of Zambian politician and president Michael Sata. Charisma and politics in post-colonial Africa Abstract This paper examines the interaction between charisma and politics in Africa. Two broad groups of charismatic political leaders are discussed: those who came to the fore during the era of independence struggles and saw themselves as an embodiment of their nation states and having a transformative impact over the societies they led, and those who emerged largely in response to the failure of the first group or the discontent of post-colonial delivery, and sought political power to enhance their own personal interests. In both instances, the leaders emerged in a context of a crisis: the collapse of colonialism, the disintegration of the one-party state model and economic collapse. Keywords: charisma; leadership; colonialism; one-party state; democracy. 1. Introduction The concept of charisma entered the lexicon of the social sciences more than a century ago and is credited to German sociologist Max Weber (1864-1920).

  • Zambia, a 'Christian Nation'
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 6, No. 7; July 2016 Zambia, a ‘Christian nation’ in Post Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD) Era, 2011-2016 Austin M. Cheyeka Department of Religious Studies University of Zambia P. O. Box 32379, Lusaka Zambia Abstract The declaration of Zambia as a Christian nation in 1991 has become a field of research because of its many faces, the interpretations it has accrued which generate debate and things it has spawned; numerous Pentecostal churches and political parties with the ‘Christian’ name tag. What is more, it has given birth to organizations such as ‘Christian Nation Coalition’, ‘Christian Nation Foundation’ and most significant, a national chapel (House of Prayer for All Nations Tabernacle) yet to be constructed in the capital city next to State house where the declaration occurred. In this article I extend my research on the Christian nation rhetoric beyond Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD) era, by examining its status during the Patriotic Front rule from 2011 to 2016, before the August 11, 2016 general elections. In 2011 the party of the president who declared Zambia a Christian nation lost power to a new party of Mr. Michael Chilufya Sata, a staunch Catholic, who, after his demise, was succeeded by Edgar Chagwa Lungu of unknown religious or denominational affiliation. I argue in the article that while Sata hardly used the Christian nation rhetoric, Lungu made the most of it during his campaign thereby revitalizing the Christian nation fervor and prompting some Pentecostal big men and women to rally around him. My stark conclusion is that: Lung perceptively reconfigured the Christian nation rhetoric for political mileage.

Slavery is a word that resonates in the minds of many when they think of Africa in the nineteenth century, but for the most part in association with the brutalities of the international slave trades.

    IDENTITY, CATHOLICISM, AND LOZI CULTURE IN ZAMBIA’S WESTERN PROVINCE BY BRADLEY JOHNSON A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of WAKE FOREST UNIVERSITY GRADUATE SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS Religion May 2012 Winston-Salem, North Carolina Approved By: Nelly van Doorn-Harder, Ph.D., Advisor Simeon Ilesanmi, Ph.D., Chair Mary Foskett, Ph.D. ii Acknowledgements I wish to express my very sincere thanks to my two advisors, Drs. Nelly van Doorn-Harder and Simeon Ilesanmi. During my short time at Wake Forest, they have always been willing to help in any capacity possible, and I have often found discussions with them to be very fruitful, both in the classroom and in their offices. I also extend my gratitude to the other professors who significantly shaped my education here: Drs. Mary Foskett, Jarrod Whitaker, Tanisha Ramachandran, Kevin Jung, Nathan Plageman, Tim Wardle, and Leon Spencer. Each one forced me to think and stretch my mind in new ways, which is one of the best gifts I can imagine. Special thanks also to the Department of Religion for helping to fund my research trip to Zambia and lifting a sizable financial burden from my family. Without the assistance, the fieldwork might not have been feasible. It is difficult to fully express my gratitude to the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate in the Western Province and Lusaka. Despite knowing me only through email correspondence and the testimony given on my behalf by a friend, they took me in and treated me with the utmost hospitality for a month and a half, eager to provide me with research opportunities along the way.

  • Malawi Malawi at a Glance: 2004-05
    Country Report October 2003 Malawi Malawi at a glance: 2004-05 OVERVIEW The Economist Intelligence Unit has now extended its forecast period into 2005. The ruling United Democratic Front (UDF) is best placed to win both the presidential and legislative elections, scheduled for May 2004, owing to its strong nationwide organisation and its alliance with the Alliance for Democracy. Divisions within the party over Bingu wa Mutharika’s nomination as presidential candidate are unlikely to weaken its electoral chances. Assuming a good harvest of maize and other crops, real GDP growth should increase to 2.6% in 2004; falling tobacco receipts will bring this down to 2.3% in 2005. Key changes from last month Political outlook • Mr Mutharika will be unlikely to risk deviating from Mr Muluzi’s wishes too much in 2004-05. After the elections, the essentially self-serving nature of Malawian politics is unlikely to change. Economic policy outlook • Our economic policy forecast remains largely unchanged. After the elections in 2004, we expect the government’s commitment to improving fiscal discipline to increase slightly; therefore, we are forecasting that the fiscal deficit will narrow to 5.5% of GDP in fiscal year 2004/05 (July-June) and 5% of GDP in 2005/06. Economic forecast • We have extended our forecast period to 2004-05 this month. The depreciation of the kwacha and higher government spending ahead of the presidential and legislative elections will push average inflation up to 13% in 2004. The lack of election-related spending should bring average inflation down to 12.2% in 2005.
