It is designed to meet the needs of persons who wish to acquire a mastery of the language sufficient to communicate with monolingual speakers. These represent more than eighty per cent of the population of Haiti, for only a small minority of Haitians, mostly Port-au-Prince based members of the middle classes, have effective control of Haiti's other official language, French. Ann pale kreybl replaces the Basic Course in Haitian Creole which, for nearly twenty years, has served the needs of users of English who, for various professional reasons, needed to acquire knowledge and/or mastery of Haitian Creole: professionals in the various health fields, community development and other technical experts, missionaries, diplomats, students, specialists of Creole studies. It is gratifiying for the author to know that many foreign scholars interested in Haiti have gained insights on the culture and people of this unfortunate, yet remarkable, country by studying its vernacular language by means of the Basic Course in Haitian Creole. Yet Ann pale kreybl is not a revised version of its predecessor but a different course. How do the two sets of materials differ? Greater authenticity The twenty years that separate the preparation of the two courses have seen greater contact between the United States and Haiti in the form of immigration of Haitians from a broader social spectrum, on the one hand, and increased developmental assistance with its accompanying flow of experts, on the other hand.

They were wounded, hungry, and dehydrated, so Sonia Marmolejos acted on impulse and she did not expect to receive any special recognition for her generous gesture. The government of the Dominican Republic capitalized on this story, defined Sonia Marmolejos as a heroine, and used her actions as a metaphor to illustrate the charitable response of the country toward neighboring Haiti. Haiti and the Dominican Republic share the island of Hispaniola and a history of colonialism which, however, has conjugated itself in very differ- ent ways. Officially under Spanish rule since 1493, the island was mostly left unpopulated for three-quarters of a century. In 1625 the French started to occupy parts of it (mainly in the north) and until the official recognition of the French colony of Saint-Domingue in 1777, they constantly pushed for- ward their unofficial borders, while the Spanish carried out punitive raids to eradicate the French presence. On the Spanish side, the economy was mainly livestock-based but the French developed an impressive network of planta- tions which relied on the constant import of enslaved labor from Africa.

Trogdon, Chair, Department of Psychology Raymond A. Craig, Dean, College of Arts and Sciences ii CHAPTER ONE Lucy Sullivan first noticed she was disappearing on Monday morning as she prepared to return to work at the Field Museum. This was two weeks after Sean had died, at the peak of Chicago’s worst heat wave in history, and two weeks after she had asked, politely, for time and space alone. The apartment smelled of the worn-out sympathies of friends. Baskets of shriveled oranges and pears and wilting lilies and roses moldered on the coffee table and mantle above the fireplace in the living room and anywhere else Lucy had found room to place them. She was certain there were even more baskets waiting for her outside the door of the apartment. She hadn’t opened the door during her seclusion, hadn’t touched the fruit or watered the plants. The idea that a dozen oranges or a clichéd peace plant would alleviate her grief brought on such an unreasonable rage that she’d decided it was best to ignore the whole lot. Outside it was pitch black, except for the sickly yellow-white pools of light illuminating the empty, elevated train tracks above North Sedgwick Avenue.

    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Saitama University Cyber Repository of Academic Resources Fȱውɨ ዄĞ༳ʧૡዅȱۀÏŹƂʧ͗ Modemagazine in Japan Lars Bertramb Modemagazine sind neben der Vermittlung von Trends auch ein Gradmesser für die kulturelle Entwicklung einer Gesellschaft, da sich die individuelle Freiheit in der modischen Ausdrucksform widerspiegelt. Diese setzte erst gegen Ende des neunzehnten Jahrhunderts allmählich ein. In dieser Zeit wurden auch die heute noch führenden westlichen Modezeitschriften wie die amerikanische Harper`s BAZAAR (1867) oder die Vouge (1893) herausgebracht. Die Bandbreite der japanischen Modezeitschriften wird neben den großen Standardtiteln von vielen Trendmagazinen beherrscht, die nicht selten mit einer zoku (Ŧ) bzw. Subkultur in Verbindung stehen wie z. B. an-an oder non-no. Daneben gibt es Zeitschriften, die lediglich als roter Faden durch den Markenwald führen und den Kunden über neue Geschäfte, Produkte oder Modenschauen auf dem Laufenden halten. Die wichtigsten Magazine Als erste Modezeitschrift in Japan wurde 1936 von der Modeschule Bunka das Magazin Sōen herausgegeben, das die neueste Mode aus dem Westen vorstellte. Das Konzept war (ˎٍ) jedoch nur auf eine modeinteressierte weibliche Kundschaft ausgerichtet und diente mit ausführlichen Schnittmusterbögen hauptsächlich als Anleitungsheft zum Schneidern. Die ersten reinen Männermagazine kamen erst in den fünfziger Jahren mit Danshisenka (ɵʖ̞ Ŕ) und Men´s Club an die Kioske. Unter den anspruchsvolleren Magazinen, die neben Mode auch Kunst und japanische Tradition vorstellen, hat die 1958 gegründete Zeitschrift Kateigahō (˥°ɹî) Pionierarbeit geleistet. Das eigentliche Zeitalter der Modemagazine begann jedoch in den siebziger Jahren, als die auch heute noch beliebten und führenden Frauenmagazine wie non-no und an-an herauskamen.

    Haiti News Roundup: October 6 – 24, 2005

    HAITI NEWS ROUNDUP: OCTOBER 6 – 24, 2005 International donors half-way to fulfilling Haiti aid pledge Caribbean Net News Monday, October 24, 2005 BRUSSELS (AFP): International donors have given Haiti some 600 million dollars so far to see it through a transition phase and help its next government, they said in a joint declaration on Friday. The money is half the amount of one billion dollars promised under the interim cooperation framework (CCI) aimed at meeting the priorities of the violence-scarred and impoverished island state. "The meeting in Brussels has allowed us to underline that the engagements undertaken in respect of Haiti are confirmed and will be respected," the joint statement said. The donors also said they would extend the cooperation framework by a year until the end of 2007 to allow the new government, due to take office in February, "the time and the means to continue reforms." A new conference will take place at the end of next year to "mobilise the additional finances necessary for this extension." Haiti and the donors at the two-day conference in Brussels also reaffirmed that the "transfer of power to a new elected government must happen in line with the timeframe set out in the constitution; that is February 7, 2006." At a press conference earlier, Prime Minister Gerard Latortue promised that long-delayed general elections in Haiti, the first since the fall of president Jean Bertrand Aristide, would start in December. "The first round of the presidential and legislative elections will take place in December, probably in the first half of the month," he said.

    Haitian-Americans United, Inc. (HAU) 2019

    2 H.A.U. CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE Haitian Heritage Month has always been a memorable period when we, Haitians and Haitian Americans remember our rich history that has been forgotten by many. It is a time when we are afforded the opportunity to reflect on our many contributions and accomplishments which have been overlooked historically and taken for granted. I would like to start by expressing my hope that this is the time to celebrate our resiliency, our pursuit for social justice and equality, in a land on which our Haitian soldiers fought at the battle of Savannah in 1779 during the American Revolutionary war. During this war they were considered the most efficient allied group, boldly fighting the British to help America gain its ter- ritorial sovereignty. As we celebrate today the 216th anniversary since the cre- ation of our flag and the 215th anniversary of our independence we, the Haitian diaspora, are observing a new cataclysm impacting our nation that we cannot ignore, to the point that it is offending the greatness of our flag. Considering the current reality of our original land, as we are celebrating the Haitian Flag Day, how many of us have not stopped even once to look at the flag in this impressive parade and acknowledge our faltering confidence, as we haven’t in previous years? Despite the internal and external upheavals created by the current socio politico economic environment, in the face of adversity, all of us Haitian-Americans must remain united, exploring new ways to positively in- fluence our brothers and sisters residing in the United States as well as our homeland.

    Ethnicity / Basic Terms and Concepts / Problem and Method

    CHAPTER 1 Perceptions of Ethnic and All-national Identity in Kazakhstan Nurbulat Masanov In the contemporary world, interethnic relations have taken on a special significance. Frequently, they are a greater priority than socio-economic processes, and they occupy a more important place in social consciousness than problems of state and politics. On many occasions in the second half of the twentieth century, conflicts in interethnic relations have placed states and entire regions on the brink of war and utter crisis. This has been the case, for example, in the Caucasus and the Balkan peninsula. In the view of the world community, interethnic discord was what destroyed the giant Soviet empire. Consequently, it is entirely appropriate that this problem, which plays such an important role in the modern world, attracts so much scholarly interest in the context of concrete historical and practical research as well as in determining general principles of human development in space and time. Interethnic relations became especially significant in the twentieth century. In the past, interethnic relations were always an local phenomenon very closely tied to place; only in very rare cases did they cross the boundaries of locality or clan. After the huge Soviet state (since 1922, the USSR) was organized territorially and administratively along ethnic lines, and the entire population was strictly segregated according to ethnic affiliation [po svoei etnicheskoi prinadlezhnost’], the system of so-called interethnic relations acquired an independent meaning. In an analogous manner, during the post-war period, a number of countries of the so-called socialist camp were established (Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, the People’s Republic of China).
