This work examines how the current structural configurations of the news media industry are impacting how emerging journalists negotiate the expectations that they develop personal brands online, including their perceived control and autonomy over their work.

    Musicians Are Suffering

    Music Freedom Report no. 1: Côte d’Ivoire • 3 March 2012 DJ Volcano, Tiken Jah Fakoly, Kajeem, Fadal Dey Côte d’Ivoire: Musicians are suffering Ivorian musicians are struggling to survive. Whilst not actually being subject to official censorship mechanisms, musicians are restricted by unofficial state mechanisms just enough to prevent them from functioning professionally, reports Rose Skelton from Côte d’Ivoire. By Rose Skelton Côte d’Ivoire’s 2010 election crisis, in which former President Laurent Gbagbo refused to cede power to the winner recognised by the Independent Electoral Commission Alassane Ouattara, ended in the death of 3,000 people and the displacement of half a million, according to Human Rights Watch. Also affected during the six-month conflict were many of the country’s musicians, some of whom had been critical of the Gbagbo regime in their songs and others who had musically supported the campaigns as official flag-bearers of one or other side and who suffered the repercussions once the power shifted. Many musicians went into exile in neighbouring countries and many are yet to return. Those who stayed have had to survive in a highly-politicised climate and in an industry that is severely depressed. DJ’s house burnt down DJ Volcano is a DJ, dancer, and choreographer who ran a small training centre for dancers and musicians at his home in Yopougon, a neighbourhood of Abidjan. In January 2011 pro- Gbagbo police came to one of his shows and arrested him, saying that his music was ‘too strong,’ meaning critical of Gbagbo’s regime.

    MIGRATIONSLYRIK IM SPANNUNGSFELD ZWISCHEN TRAUM UND WIRKLICHKEIT 1 Dr. phil. Obikoli Amatso ASSEMBONI Département d’Allemand, Université de Lomé E-Mail: [email protected]/ [email protected] Abstract: Migration ist in den letzten Jahren ein aktuelles Thema der Forschung geworden, das auch von der lyrischen Gattung bzw. in Liedern behandelt wird und viele populäre Sänger auf der Welt beschäftigt. Die vorliegende Studie untersucht Lieder, die die Migration thematisieren. Migration wird hier als globales Phänomen aufgefasst. Zwar wird der Begriff oft hauptsächlich auf afrikanische Migranten bezogen, aber in der Tat betrifft die Migration viele andere Nationen: Überall auf der Welt, wo Armut oder Krieg herrscht, erlebt man dieses Phänomen. Natürlich ist es in Afrika stärker ausgeprägt: Der Traum vieler junger Afrikaner ist es, ihr Land zu verlassen, um ihre Träume in Europa oder in Amerika zu verwirklichen. Dafür sind sie bereit, ihr Leben aufs Spiel zu setzen. Je strenger die Grenzen Europas bewacht werden, desto mutiger werden die „Migrationskandidaten“: Sie suchen alle Umwege, um das „Eldorado“ zu erreichen. Untersucht werden entsprechende Erfahrungen, die in zwei Liedern nacherzählt werden. Es handelt sich um die Lieder „Ouvrez les frontières “ und „Un Africain à Paris “ des aus der Côte d’Ivoire stammenden populären Sängers Tiken Jah Fakoli, den man als „Botschafter“ der afrikanischen Jugend betrachtet. Dabei wird den Fragen der stilistischen Darstellungen und Komponenten dieser Lieder nachgegangen, wobei sowohl die Texte der Lieder als auch deren Videoclips in Betracht gezogen werden. Schlüsselwörter: Migrationslyrik, Medien, Lied, Videoclip. Résumé: Au cours des dernières années, le thème de la migration est devenu un sujet très actuel de la recherche, un sujet également présent dans le genre lyrique ou dans les chansons populaires.

    Chapitre 2 La Politique Publique De L'étranger Et La Crise Sociopolitique

    Chapitre 2 La politique publique de l’étranger et la crise sociopolitique en Côte d’Ivoire Alfred Babo Introduction L’histoire de l’étranger en Afrique de façon générale est mêlée aux mouvements commerciaux de la route du sel, des esclaves, de la pénétration coloniale et du travail forcé. Elle prend également en compte tous les mouvements à la fois massifs et individuels fondés sur la volonté de partir. L’étranger est généralement présenté comme la personne qui ne possède pas la nationalité du pays d’accueil où il peut résider ; et d’après Shack et Skinner (1979), c’est un être qui possède une place organique dans un cercle simultanément social et spatial auquel il n’appartient pourtant pas. En raison des déplacements des populations visant, non seulement à améliorer leurs conditions matérielles de vie, mais aussi à optimiser des stratégies de survie complexes (Babo 2005 ; Parnwell 1993 ; Droz et Sottas 1997), l’Afrique de l’Ouest est une grande zone de migration. Les populations d’origines diverses passent d’un pays à un autre (Pitroipa 2003) et se mettent dans la position de l’étranger qui combine à la fois des traits de proximité et de distanciation, selon un continuum qui couvre une grande diversité de situations. En Côte d’Ivoire, la présence étrangère se situe dans le prolongement d’anciens mouvements marchands qui ont eu lieu en Afrique entre le XIIIe et le XIXe siècle (Akindès 2003 ; Blion et Bredeloup 1997 ; Bierwirth 1997). Par la suite, l’administration coloniale a bâti l’essentiel de l’économie agricole de la colonie Côte d’Ivoire sur l’apport et les flux importants de migrants ouest-africains (Cordell et Gregory 1982).

    N° 662 05.11.03 African Culture(S): a Different Image of the Continent (MFI

    N° 662 AFRICA-FRANCE 05.11.03 African culture(s): a different image of the continent (MFI) Africa’s image abroad is usually perceived as a bad one. Wars, poverty and AIDS hit the headlines in the Western media, conveying a negative vision of the continent. At the same time, and somewhat paradoxically, African culture is more and more exported elsewhere, producing an image of dynamic creativity. However, not without some ambiguity, and it has not yet become an economic asset. Africa’s image in France and in the West is more varied than it might seem. The media still give prominence to news about conflicts and dramatic events, but have in recent years opened up to other aspects of Africa. Television documentaries have enriched and diversified the viewpoints; in France, the Arte TV network is among those which offer reports on African society and culture. The France-Culture radio station in February 2005 broadcast a week-long series of reports on Mali – not to mention the daily news and other programmes on Africa broadcast by Radio France Internationale (RFI), which can be picked up in Paris. The French press also finds room for background stories on the continent, as seen from outside. However, the growing presence of African cultural creation in Europe is more significant. This is notably evident in plastic arts. The Africa Remix exhibition, featuring the works of 87 contemporary artists from across the continent, was shown in Düsseldorf, London and Paris in 2005, before travelling to Tokyo. The interest for African art emerged in the 1990s and rounded a symbolic cape in 2003 with shows such as the Venice Biennale and the Kassel Dokumenta, with Okui Enwesor of Nigeria as Arts Director.
