File for Brad REPRESENTATION, EQUITY & ENVIRONMENT Working Paper Series Working Paper 24 Institutional Choice and Recognition: Effects on the Formation and Consolidation of Local Democracy Minutes of a Comparative Policy Research Workshop Bradley L. Kinder, Nathaniel Gerhart and Anjali Bhat December 2006 The Representation, Equity and Environment Working Paper Series This series is a continuation of WRI’s ‘Environmental Accountability in Africa’ working paper series (Working Papers number 1 through 22). The series was renamed to reflect the Equity Poverty and Environment team’s broadening, mostly through comparative research, to include research and analysis worldwide. This periodic working paper series presents new research on democratic decentralization and legislative representation concerning the management, control and use of natural resources. The series will present research and analysis on the effects of policies on the distribution of profits and other benefits within natural resource commodity chains and the distribution of government revenues from natural resource exploitation and trade. The objective of this working paper series is to provide researchers working at the intersection of governance and natural resource management with a forum in which to present their findings and receive feedback from scholars and practitioners around the world. Your comments can be sent to the series editor at WRI or to the authors at the contact information listed at the back of each working paper.

and Recognition: Effects on the Formation and Consolidation of Local Democracy” in Ubud, Bali in June 2006. These minutes are not all accurate. Typing while listening is a difficult task. For some of the participants, English is not their first language. Participants come to the meeting with different accents and pronunciations. Some participants speak faster than others—something to which the rapporteurs will attest. To assure that the intended message of the authors comes across in this text, we have given all of the authors the opportunity to correct their contributions to the dialogue. We asked them to clarify only—not to change what they said. Those participants who did give us comments respected this request. The articles written for this conference are being revised as working papers and articles for publication during the course of 2007. Many people contributed to the success of this meeting. First and foremost Bradley Kinder organized the logistics of this meeting from the identification of the site to the getting everyone

  • History Lesson
    CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY 1.1 Introduction The present study investigated language policy implementation in selected high schools in the Mthatha District of the Eastern Cape, in the light of the change in medium-of-instruction policy in post-apartheid South Africa. In the introductory chapter, I contextualise the study by outlining the background of the problem, the purpose of the study, and the research aims and objectives. This is followed by the research questions, statement of the problem, rationale of the theoretical framework, research assumptions, definition of terms and concepts, justification of the study, the research approach, the limitations of the study, the organization and overview of the study, and the conclusion. Language is one of the major challenges of curriculum implementation for governments in post- colonial Africa. Language, which is the primary means of group identity formation and a shield to protect this identity (Zotwana in Alexander, 1989:77), is also linked to ideology and power (Makalela, 2005).Language has always been a controversial and explosive subject in post-colonial societies, primarily because of the legacy of colonial governments‟ language planning policies whose aim was to promote and entrench linguistic imperialism through divisive language legislation. Linguistic imperialism is the tendency to attribute favourable characteristics to a particular language whilst devaluing other languages (Phillipson, 1992). Makalela (2005:157) posits that the tendency for post-colonial governments to

  • Discourses Shaping Human Rights Education Research in South Africa: Future Considerations
    DISCOURSES SHAPING HUMAN RIGHTS EDUCATION RESEARCH IN SOUTH AFRICA: FUTURE CONSIDERATIONS S. Simmonds* Research Unit for Education and Human Rights in Diversity (Edu-HRight) e-mail: [email protected] P. du Preez* Curriculum Studies e-mail: [email protected] *North-West University Potchefstroom, South Africa ABSTRACT Human rights education is critiqued for being traditionalist and conceptually imprisoned. This view stems from the distrust in its ability to transform deeply rooted injustices and inequalities etched within South Africa’s society. There is therefore an outcry to reimagine human rights education. For this article it is important to understand how and why human rights education discourses in South Africa have come to be framed by some scholars in this way and to contemplate where the discourse might be heading in the future. We reviewed doctoral theses in the field of Education which claim to engage with and make contributions to human rights education research. We found that human rights education discourses have been (and are being) shaped in South Africa in terms of three distinct phases: inception, growth, and cynicism. It became evident from the findings that human rights education research is predominantly school-based and fundamentally descriptive and uncritical. To conclude, we reflect on these findings so as to put forward future considerations for human rights education research. Keywords: human rights education research, doctoral theses, post-school education and training INTRODUCTION Globally, the scholarship of human rights and human rights education has increased exponentially since the 1970s (Suarez and Ramirez 2004). Keet (2015, 46–47) explains: As right articulations have come to drench the globe over the past six decades, human rights violations became the prevailing expressions of structurally anchored inequalities in social, economic, cultural, political and environmental spheres.

  • Seminar on Linking Rural Definitions and Policy for Coordinated Rural
    Seminar on LINKING RURAL DEFINITIONS AND POLICIES FOR COORDINATED RURAL DEVELOPMENT Warsaw, 7 April 2017 Background and purpose The OECD together with the Polish Ministry of Development held a seminar on “Linking rural definitions, policy and coordinated rural development” on 7 April 2017 in Warsaw Poland. The seminar brought together comparative expertise from OECD countries (Italy, Sweden and Finland) on how different rural definitions have been used to structure policy responses and also how they have combined EU policies for coordinated approaches to rural development. A wide range of participants from various Ministries (Economic Development, Agriculture and Rural Development, Family, Labour and Social Policy, Environment Protection) attended the event along with representatives of Central Statistical Office, Agency Foundation of Assistance Programmes for Agriculture, academics from the Polish Academy of Sciences and range of NGOs (Foundation for the Development of Polish Agriculture, European Fund for Development of PL Rural Areas, Forum for Rural Areas Activation) . How rural areas are thought about and defined has important policy implications. The OECD’s work in this area has long remarked on the fact that while administrative boundaries are often a convenient way of collecting and analysing data, they may conceal important functional connections between territories (e.g. overlapping urban and rural areas) that are more useful for policy purposes. To this end, many OECD countries have established new definitions and indicators to better understand rural areas and structure policy responses – from distance to services to functional labour markets – these new analytical frameworks have great potential to improve quality of life in rural communities. The seminar is part of the OECD project “Rural Policy Review of Poland” which is focussed on providing integrated approaches to rural development.

    Identity, place and displacement in the visual art of female artists at the Vaal University of Technology (VUT), 1994-2004 by Judy Ramgolam Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree DPhil (Visual Studies) in the FACULTY OF HUMANITIES UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA April 2011 Promoter: Prof J van Eeden © University of Pretoria SUMMARY Title of thesis: Identity, place and displacement in the visual art of female artists at the Vaal University of Technology (VUT), 1994-2004 Name of student: Judy Ramgolam Promoter: Promoter: Prof J van Eeden Department of Visual Arts Degree: DPhil (Visual Studies) The first ten years of democracy (1994-2004) in South Africa was an important period marked by a plethora of research activities in South Africa. The 2004 exhibition of artworks by academic staff from the Vaal University of Technology (VUT) was an example of one such event. A critical reading of these artworks exhibited diverse representations of their world views and also informed the initial research for this study. All the artworks on exhibition illustrated a commonality of purpose in the artists‘ interrogation and representation of their fragmented identities in a transforming political landscape. Therefore, this thesis considers a political reading of the ideas of identity, place and displacement in the artworks of thirteen female artists at VUT from 1994 to 2004. The rationale of this thesis was to examine in what way the artists‘ construction and representations of identity, place and displacement were influenced by the environmental factors of the historical, political and academic culture in the microcosm of the Vaal region. However, the inclusion of Tracey Rose in this study extended the discourses of identity, place and displacement to consider the disjunctures and ii continuities of cultural practices in ethnicities in South Africa.
