  • Critical Geopolitics of Foreign Involvement in Namibia: a Mixed Methods Approach
    CRITICAL GEOPOLITICS OF FOREIGN INVOLVEMENT IN NAMIBIA: A MIXED METHODS APPROACH by MEREDITH JOY DEBOOM B.A., University of Iowa, 2009 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Masters of Arts Department of Geography 2013 This thesis entitled: Critical Geopolitics of Foreign Involvement in Namibia: A Mixed Methods Approach written by Meredith Joy DeBoom has been approved for the Department of Geography John O’Loughlin, Chair Joe Bryan, Committee Member Date The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. iii Abstract DeBoom, Meredith Joy (M.A., Geography) Critical Geopolitics of Foreign Involvement in Namibia: A Mixed Methods Approach Thesis directed by Professor John O’Loughlin In May 2011, Namibia’s Minister of Mines and Energy issued a controversial new policy requiring that all future extraction licenses for “strategic” minerals be issued only to state-owned companies. The public debate over this policy reflects rising concerns in southern Africa over who should benefit from globally-significant resources. The goal of this thesis is to apply a critical geopolitics approach to create space for the consideration of Namibian perspectives on this topic, rather than relying on Western geopolitical and political discourses. Using a mixed methods approach, I analyze Namibians’ opinions on foreign involvement, particularly involvement in natural resource extraction, from three sources: China, South Africa, and the United States.

    LAND REFORM IN NAMIBIA: AN ANALYSIS OF MEDIA COVERAGE By Petrus J. Engelbrecht Submitted to the graduate degree program in African and African-American Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson: Dr. Elizabeth MacGonagle ________________________________ Dr. Hannah Britton ________________________________ Dr. Ebenezer Obadare Date Defended: June 25, 2011 The Thesis Committee for Petrus J. Engelbrecht certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: LAND REFORM IN NAMIBIA: AN ANALYSIS OF MEDIA COVERAGE ________________________________ Chairperson Elizabeth MacGonagle Date approved: June 25, 2014 ii ABSTRACT The highly inequitable land ownership that resulted from nearly a century of colonization is an important socio-economic issue that must be overcome in order to ensure Namibia’s long-term stability and success. The media plays an important role in ensuring that land reform is successfully designed and executed. The media informs the public, sets the public and political agenda, holds the government accountable, and serves as a public sphere. This project analyses Namibia’s three primary daily newspapers’ coverage of land reform from 2003 to 2013 utilizing interpretive content analysis to determine how the papers are reporting on land reform and related themes. I then compare their portrayals to see to what they are fulfilling their roles. I find that the papers’ reporting is mostly event-driven and lacks depth and greater context. Furthermore, the papers offer a mostly one-sided view of issues. While the papers regularly reported on land reform, they generally struggle to accomplish the function that the media fulfills in a democracy.

The project is the first in-depth and comprehensive description and measurement system for national media environments on the African continent. The benchmarks are to a large extent taken from the African Commission for Human and Peoples’ Rights (ACHPR)1 “Declaration of Principles on Freedom of Expression in Africa”, adopted in 2002. This declaration was largely inspired by the groundbreaking “Windhoek Declaration on Promoting an Independent and Pluralistic African Press” (1991) and the “African Charter on Broadcasting” (2001). By the end of 2008, 23 sub-Saharan countries have been covered by the AMB.

  • Inventory of Heritage Resources in the Hardap Region
    INVENTORY OF HERITAGE RESOURCES IN THE HARDAP REGION 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 PURPOSE OF PROJECT The National Heritage Council of Namibia has a national mandate of identifying places and objects of heritage significance in the country. In this regard the National heritage council seeks to address the imbalances that are apparent in the national heritage register through identifying heritage places and objects that fit in the broad definition of heritage that was adopted after the National Monuments Act 29 or 1969 was repealed and replaced by the National Heritage Council Act 27 of 2004. The following inventory of cultural and natural heritage sites in the Hardap and Karas Regions was developed in response to the need of updating the national heritage register and including sites and objects whose categories were formerly not catered for in the National Monuments Council Act (1969). 2. METHODOLOGY 2.1 Research Design Identification of cultural and natural heritage sites in the Hardap and Karas Region followed a combination of methodologies and inclusive approaches which comprised of scoping (the determination of the extent of the site and what may be performed), desktop and archival research, consultations with local communities and field work. A systematic approach that focuses on a particular district at a time will be followed in identifying the heritage sites. 2.2 Desktop Analysis An in-depth review of existing primary and secondary literature (including unpublished reports, travelogues of early travellers and diaries of missionaries) from southern Namibia was carried out very early in the research. Existing databases from among others, NGO’s, private holdings, the National Museum of Namibia, National Heritage Council and the National Archives of Namibia were consulted.

  • The Homecoming of Ovaherero and Nama Skulls: Overriding Politics And
    i i i The homecoming of Ovaherero and i Nama skulls: overriding politics and injustices HUMAN REMAINS & VIOLENCE Vilho Amukwaya Shigwedha The University of Namibia [email protected] Abstract In October 2011, twenty skulls of the Herero and Nama people were repatriated from Germany to Namibia. So far, y-ve skulls and two human skeletons have been repatriated to Namibia and preparations for the return of more skulls from Germany were at an advanced stage at the time of writing this article. Nonetheless, the skulls and skeletons that were returned from Germany in the past have been disappointingly laden with complexities and politics, to such an extent that they have not yet been handed over to their respective communities for mourning and burials. In this context, this article seeks to investigate the practice of ‘anonymis- ing’ the presence of human remains in society by exploring the art and politics of the Namibian state’s memory production and sanctioning in enforcing restrictions on the aected communities not to perform, as they wish, their cultural and ritual practices for the remains of their ancestors. Key words: Skulls, Herero, Nama, genocide, Germany, Namibia Introduction Until 1919, today’s Namibia was ocially the colony of German South West Africa (GSWA). This came as a result of the 1884/85 Berlin Conference, which formally recognised Germany’s right to operate in and colonise the territory that it renamed GSWA.1 German colonial occupation of this territory, which was renamed Namibia in 1968, lasted from 1885 until 1919, when Imperial Germany was defeated in the First World War and subsequently lost her colonies in Africa.

Fighting the Lion: Nationalist Masculinity in Sam Nujoma’s Autobiography Abstract Dr. Samuel Nujoma’s autobiography, Where Others Wavered: My Life in SWAPO and My Participation in the Liberation Struggle, documents his life as a pivotal figure in the Namibian war for independence leading to his tenure as the first president of Namibia (1990-2005). Nujoma, known as the “Founding Father” of Namibia, occupies a larger-than-life sphere within the public imagination through monuments, public photographs, placards and street names. Nujoma’s autobiography prescribes a certain type of national citizenship that details a specific construction of masculinity for Namibian men. This paper analyzes his autobiography, arguing that Nujoma constructs a hegemonic masculinity based on four key features: 1. leadership; 2. initiation to manhood; 3. the use of physical strength; 4.
