In late 2018 Black Watch will embark on an extensive world discovery, with your only challenge being to select the experiences that tempt you the most. Idyllic pacific islands bathed in warm sunshine; ‘lost’ cities steeped in deep history; spectacular Singapore; the prehistoric-seeming Komodo Dragons; celebrating New Year’s Eve with fireworks in Sydney: we will deliver a truly memorable experience, whichever holiday you choose. Looking ahead to 2019/20, Boudicca’s exceptional fly-cruise programme features scenic cruising of one of the world’s Seven Natural Wonders, the Great Barrier Reef; kangaroos in their natural habitat; and the chance to climb Sydney Harbour Bridge. Uncover diverse flora and fauna on the archipelagos of the Seychelles, the Maldives and the Andaman Islands. Equally unforgettable are the temples, tribes and tropical islands of Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. Every journey is filled with special experiences you will treasure for years to come. While Braemar’s Caribbean classics are always a favourite, this new programme includes more varied itineraries, reaching more islands across the region, along with the diverse ecosystem of the Amazon Rainforest and the exotic history and wildlife of Central America.

  • Sandra Thomson - Norman Durban Paper Page 1
    Sandra Thomson - Norman Durban paper Page 1 Were there large states in Southeast Africa before the rise of the Zulu Kingdom? In a rare coincidence of popular and scholarly enthusiasm, historians of Africa have paid even more attention to the Zulu state than the hiphop gangs of Chicago and the Bronx. Texts of the colonial era took Shaka and his kingdom as the paradigm of savage despotism. After decolonization, historians in tune with African nationalism reversed the image, promoting Shaka as a creative statesman who proved that Africa’s nation-building capacities owed nothing to European stimulus or example. Even after the gloss had begun to wear off the image of post-independence African leadership, historians studied the Zulu in the hope of learning how large states were constructed and sustained. “The rise of the Zulu state” became a staple of undergraduate teaching and graduate research.1 Distrustful of explanations based on individual genius, scholars looked for environmental, economic, demographic and social forces that might explain the emergence of Shaka’s kingdom along with other less famous states in the same region. The search continues into the twenty-first century.2 Over fifty years of research one assumption has gone unquestioned: the Zulu kingdom was not just a new state, it was a new kind of state – one of several that arose about the same time, some of the most prominent being the Swazi, the Ndwandwe, the Gasa, and the Ndebele. This article challenges that assumption, arguing that there is little if any evidence to support it. On the contrary, there are good reasons to suspect that states similar in structure predated those kingdoms.

  • A Future of Island Studies
    Island Studies Journal, Vol. 12, No. 1, 2017, 3-16 EDITORIAL A future of island studies Adam Grydehøj Ilisimatusarfik/University of Greenland, Nuuk, Greenland Institute of Island Studies, University of Prince Edward Island, Charlottetown, Canada Island Dynamics, Copenhagen, Denmark [email protected] ABSTRACT: Island studies has developed into an established, interdisciplinary research field. It is important that island studies not only continue deepening its internal theoretical understandings but also reach out to other fields and regions that have received limited attention within island studies. It is also necessary for island studies to grapple with a number of problematic tendencies within the field and the wider scholarship, including by challenging the misuse of island spatiality to produce idealised visions of islands (for example in island sustainability research). Similarly, it is important to pursue a decolonial island studies that rethinks the ways in which island development research can end up marginalising Indigenous voices at the same time as it seeks to understand islands ‘on their own terms’. Keywords: decolonial, interdisciplinary research, island development, island studies, sustainability https://doi.org/10.24043/isj.1 © 2017 – Institute of Island Studies, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada. Island studies, many say, is an emerging field. We live in an age that valorises dynamism and change, so it flatters our sensibilities to participate in a scholarly project that is not fixed, fusty, or static. If island studies is emerging, then we who contribute to it are at the vanguard, engaging in a new way of doing research. But this mantra of ‘emergence’, ‘burgeoning’, ‘growth’, ‘institutionalisation’ is also an apology―repeated across a range of important literature reviews and theoretical texts (e.g., Baldacchino, 2004; Baldacchino, 2006; Shima Editorial Board, 2007; Fletcher, 2011; Brinklow, 2011; Mountz, 2015; Swaminathan, 2015; Pugh, 2016b; Rankin, 2016).

  • Section 7. European Powers and Tonga's Independence
    SECTION 7. EUROPEAN POWERS AND TONGA'S INDEPENDENCE. The latter half of the 19th Century was a period of Colonial expansion by European powers. Britain, France, and Germany in particular came into conflict as they carved out for themselves colonies in Africa and Asia. Terms like 'the scramble for Africa', and 'spheres of influencer in China, became part of the language during that period. The Pacific was not free from this colonial movement and the closing years of the 19th century saw the pacific aspect of colonial expansion and imperial rivalry. Colonial expansion had very drastic effects upon the very existence of a number of Pacific nations, Fiji was annexed by Britain in 1874. Germany annexed large portions of New Guinea and New Britain in the 1880's. France took New Caledonia and portions of the New Hebrides. Samoa eventually passed into the hands of Germany. Divided government, or no government at all according to European standards, seemed to be the excuse for intervention. Tonga however was different in this respect from most of the other Island Kingdoms in that an orderly form of government had been established quite early. Tonga's first Code of Laws, the Code of Vava'u, appeared in 1839 and a second code followed in 1850 for the whole of the country. By 1862 a third code had been promulgated, which also provided for the liberation of the serfs. The year 1875, several years before colonial expansion really reached its peak, saw the handing down by King Goorge Tupou I, of a complete Constitution. Basil Thomson may scoff at the amateur law making of the missionaries, but it must be conceded that by 1875 Tonga had effective codes of Law, a constitutional Monarch, and a free and united people.

  • 2013 the African Raptor Databank Or ARDB Was Launched
    AFRICAN RAPTOR DATABANK first year report: 2013 The African Raptor Databank or ARDB was launched at the 13th PAOC in Arusha, October 2012. The project became possible thanks to the facilitation of The Peregrine Fund and ESRI in supplying important mapping software. A five year period is planned for data gathering to enable comprehensive assessment of the conservation status of each species of African raptor. The project also aims to make use of raptors as ideal indicator species for monitoring the health of African environments. The project depends on the support of raptor biologists, birdwatchers and general enthusiasts in sharing their observations of African raptors. This is a summary of the data gathering exercises during our first year of operation in 2013. Since the last monthly update in early November 2013, there have been a further 1228 records added to the database during December (Tim Wacher: 769; Andre Botha: 297; Joseph Heymans: 162). This brings the database total to 57,547 records (of which 15,607 are historic records captured from the Snow Atlas). The following table displays contributions by country during 2013.

Beitr. Bd. 38 H. 3 S. 155—172 Bonn, Oktober 1987 A checklist of the shrews of Rwanda and biogeographical considerations on African Soricidae R. Hutterer, E. Van der Straeten & W. N. Verheyen Abstract. A checklist of the shrews of Rwanda is given. Sixteen species are recognized of which seven are new records for the country. Species richness is high in the remnant mon- tane forest areas; all Central African endemic species are restricted to this habitat. Conser- vation of the highly threatened forests is therefore essential for the survival of the unique small mammal fauna of Rwanda and its neighbour countries. A comparative analysis of the species numbers of most African countries and their species-area relationship show that Rwanda, Uganda, Zaire and Cameroon house a high proportion of the entire shrew fauna of Africa. This finding is in accordance whith the postulated existence of Pleistocene refuge areas in the Cameroon Mountains and the Albertine Rift. Key words. Mammalia, Soricidae, Rwanda, checklist, species richness, species-area rela- tionship, montane forest. Introduction Unlike other vertebrate groups such as birds (e.g. Prigogine 1985), the small mam- mals of the Central African countries are poorly known.

  • The Construction of the African Being in South African History Textbooks
    The construction of the African being in South African history textbooks Marshall Maposa Abstract This study is rooted in the move by the South African government at the turn of the 21st century to spearhead the conception of what then President Thabo Mbeki referred to as an African Renaissance. This move entailed cultivating an African consciousness; education being one of the key tools. With textbooks still playing a critical role in the education system, I analysed South African National Curriculum Statement-compliant history textbooks in order to understand the construction of the African being. I employed a critical discourse analysis methodology to analyse a sample of four contemporary South African history textbooks with a focus on the chapters that deal with post-colonial Africa. At a descriptive level of analysis, the textbooks construct the African being as five-dimensional: the spatial, the physical, the philosophical, the cultural and the experiential notions. The interpretation is that the African being is constructed as multidimensional. I use postcolonial theory to explain that while the macro-level of power produces the dominant discourses, the micro-level of the citizen also contributes to the discourses that permeate the history textbooks. Indeed, the production of textbooks is influenced by multifarious factors that when the discourses from the top and from below meet at the meso-level of textbook production, there is not just articulation but also resistance, thus producing heteroglossic representation of the African being. Background, contextualization and introduction By the turn of the 21st century, the then South African President, Thabo Mbeki, had espoused the concept of an African Renaissance as one of the objectives of his country’s domestic and foreign policy (Mbeki, 1999).
