A cierta altura, un bisabuelo encuentra a su bisnieto. El bisabuelo está completamente chocho (sus pensamiemto tiene nel color del agua) y sonríe con la misma beatífica sonrisa de su bisnieto recién nacido. El bisabuelo es feliz porque ha perdido la memoria que tenía. El bisnieto es feliz porque no tiene, todavía, ninguna memoria. He aquí, pienso, la felicidad perfecta. Yo no la quiero Eduardo Galeano Parte Prima Subire l’immaginario. Ricostruire l’immaginario. Il fenomeno e le problematiche Introduzione Molte persone in Italia sono persuase, in assoluta buona fede, della positività dell’operato italiano in Africa. Italiani brava gente dunque. Italiani costruttori di ponti, strade, infrastrutture, palazzi. Italiani civilizzatori. Italiani edificatori di pace, benessere, modernità. Ma questa visione delineata corrisponde alla realtà dei fatti? Gli italiani sono stati davvero brava gente in Africa? Nella dichiarazioni spesso vengono anche azzardati parallelismi paradossali tra la situazione attuale e quella passata delle ex colonie italiane. Si ribadisce con una certa veemenza che Libia, Etiopia, Somalia ed Eritrea tutto sommato stavano meglio quando stavano peggio, cioè dominati e colonizzati dagli italiani.

  • Asmara's Colonial Heritage
    Asmara’s Colonial Heritage: Preserving a problematic chapter in the history and the building of a nation R6 Anne Marte Aure Brent Patterson 1 July 2020 Cover page Asmarinos back at the once forbidden Market Square. Courtesy Sami Sallinen.1 1 https://samisallinen.photodeck.com/-/galleries/asmara CONTENTS Asmara under Italian occupation 4 Eritrea fghting for independence 16 Underlying values in heritage politics 19 Asmara’s heritage conservation facing UNESCO’s 21 European bias Conclusion 25 Bibliography 27 Asmara under Italian occupation The boundaries of Eritrea were, as was the case for other post-colonial countries, established during the “Scramble for Africa” in the late 19th century. Eritrea became an Italian colony in 1889 with the port of Massa- wa on the Red Sea as its frst capital. Six years later, Asmara became the new capital when the Italian government merged four existing villages into one. Located 2000 metres above sea level, the surrounding highlands offered milder climatic conditions and better water supply than the initial capital. With plenty of land and few people, Italy’s Eritrean colony was seen as “an absolutely new country” that was to be peacefully built by hard-working Italian families.2 At this time, Italy was struggling with poverty and the lack of land pri- marily in the southern parts of the country. As a direct consequence, a signifcant number of poor peasants began leaving for the Americas. The Italian Prime Minister, Francesco Crispi, was worried about the de- mographic development and the consequences this could have for the building of the Italian nation.3 In his speeches, he played upon national- ist and expansionist rhetoric where reproduction and expanding borders would be necessary to survive.

  • Tibereh Tesfahuney
    Remembering unique Eritreans in contemporary history An autobiography Of Tibereh Tesfahuney Scanned, compiled and edited By Emnetu Tesfay Stavanger, Norway June 2014 Introduction Tiberih Tesfahuney was born in Asmara, Eritrea in 1947. Teberh Tesfahunegn was one of the first lead female artist and freedom fighter. At the age of 16, Tebereh Tesfahunegn (sometimes spelled Tesfahuney) joined MaTA in 1963 as dancer and later a singer joining other famous artists like Ato Atowebrhan Seghid and Tewelde Redda. Tiberih Tesfahuney scored her biggest hit in the mid-1960s with “Tegezana Abi Hedmo” – or “Our Lovely House” (is infested with bedbugs and fleas) – which was a criticism of Ethiopia‘s occupation and was subsequently banned. This lead to her fleeing to Sweden in 1970, but that lasted only for a few years. In 1975, Tiberih Tesfahuney returned to Eritrea and joined the Eritrean People’s Liberation Front. Two years later during a battle in Adi Hawesh, a piece of shrapnel from a RPG left her deaf in her left ear. The EPLF sent her to Sudan to recover from the injury. In 1985, the EPLF office in Sudan eventually decided to send her to Germany to get treatment for her hearing. She stayed there until 1994, when she returned to Eritrea once again. Upon her return, she opened a bar called Ab Hedmo – after her favorite song – in the town of Dekemhare. Tiberih Tesfahuney published her autobiography – Two Lives: A True Story – in 1999. It was originally written in Tigrigna, the majority of it has been translated into English – which you can find HERE.

  • Ministry of Tourism State of Eritrea National Tourism
    MINISTRY OF TOURISM STATE OF ERITREA NATIONAL TOURISM DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR ERITREA 2000-2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY UNITED NATIONS DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME WORLD TOURISM ORGANIZATION JULY 1999 Part A: NATIONAL PLAN STRATEGIES 1. IMPORTANCE OF TOURISM TO ERITREA Tourism is one of the most dynamic socioeconomic sectors in the world today, and constitutes about 12 per cent of the global economy. International tourism has been growing at about 4-5 per cent annually and this growth rate is projected to continue into the early part of the 21st century until the year 2020. Domestic tourism is also expanding rapidly in many countries. With its many natural and cultural attractions and a location relatively near major tourist markets in Europe and the Middle East, Eritrea potentially can participate in the growth and benefits of tourism. However, it is essential that tourism be well planned and managed if it is to bring benefits without too many problems. The concept of sustainable development is now accepted as the fundamental basis for all development planning. The principles of sustainable tourism development are elaborated as follows: • The natural and cultural resources for tourism are conserved (and often enhanced) for continuous use in the future, while still bringing benefits to the present society. • Tourism development does not generate serious environmental or socio-cultural problems. • The overall environmental quality of tourism areas is maintained and improved where needed. • A high level of tourist satisfaction is maintained so that tourist destinations will retain their marketability. • The benefits of tourism are widely spread throughout the society. Sustainable tourism can best be achieved through careful planning, development and management of the tourism sector.
