My interest in Tocqueville began in 1984 when I was a visiting scholar at Indiana University’s Workshop in Political Theory and Policy Analysis headed by Vincent and Elinor Ostrom. Until then, it had never crossed my mind to think of Tocqueville’s work as relevant to Africa.Vincent Ostrom made me realize that Tocqueville, in writing about America, was not just doing a case study but elaborating a methodology—what Ostrom calls Tocquevillian analytics—for studying democracy. After reading Democracy in America carefully for the first time, I turned to another of Tocqueville’s masterpieces, The Old Régime and the French Revolution. In writing about the development of the centralized state and the devastating effects of state tutelage in destroying local initiative in France, Tocqueville seemed to be accurately describing what I had seen in Francophone Africa.Tocqueville hated extreme administrative centralization, impersonal bureaucracies, and the centralized state’s control over the economy and daily life because they implicitly denied the great diversity among human societies and sought to impose the same uniform rules for everyone. Over time, I began to understand the validity of Tocqueville’s ideas about freedom of association and the art of association as bulwarks against tyranny, but even more importantly, as preconditions for the establishment of self- governing communities.The more deeply I delved into Tocqueville, the more I appreciated the breadth and pertinence of his analysis of the role of laws, religion, language, culture, and mores in the transition from aristocratic to democratic societies. Tocqueville had something to say on almost every topic including slavery,equality,the status of women, genocide of the American Indian, and even how to govern colonies. My interest in Africa began in 1958, when I came to Paris as a graduate student at the Institut d’Études Politiques (Science Po). General De Gaulle had just come to power; France was embroiled in a bloody colonial war in Algeria; and Guinea had just become the first and only Black African French colony to choose independence. During my two years in Paris, the many Africans I met were more concerned with independence and economic development than democracy. 01_Gell_FM.qxd 13/7/05 7:25 PM Page ix Preface ix Senegal attracted me because I had studied at IRFED, a development- training institute in Paris run by Father L. J. Lebret, a Dominican priest who advised Pope John XXIII on development issues and served as economic advisor to the Senegalese government. Inspired by Lebret, I chose Senegal as the subject for my doctoral dissertation. I first went to Senegal in November 1962 to do fourteen months of fieldwork. On the boat from Marseille to Dakar, I met Ismaila Dia, a young Muslim aristocrat from Fouta Toro who was returning to Senegal after fin- ishing his pharmaceutical studies in France. Ismaila took me into his family, introduced me to Senegalese society, and became my African “grand frère.” Ismaila was a devout Muslim with a genuine interest in other religions that we both shared. Unlike Tocqueville who never returned to America, I have been back to Senegal many times over the past forty years and have personally witnessed many of the changes described in this book. As an academic researcher and international development consultant, I have had the privilege and pleasure of having been to every one of Senegal’s départements (the equivalent of our states) which afforded me the opportunity to observe Senegal’s great physical and climatic diversity. During my travels, I have observed and talked with aristo- crats, former slaves, and praisesingers (griots); farmers, herders, and fishermen; mechanics,domestics,taxi drivers,and petty traders;foresters,agricultural exten- sion agents, and state bureaucrats; journalists, judges, and lawyers; doctors, pharmacists, and university professors; feminists, human rights advocates, and literacy specialists; ministers, mayors, deputies, and local government officials; marabouts, priests, and Christian missionaries; writers, actors, and musicians; and lots of young people in urban neighborhoods. When I visited my first Senegalese village accompanied by a French cooperative specialist and a Senegalese official, the village chief did all the talking while the young men sat quietly in the back.Women were absent from the meeting.The village chief was deferential to the state official and listed the problems of the village,which he expected the state to solve.Forty years later in the same village, I saw quite a different picture. Not only were women present at the meeting, they also spoke up and were not afraid to contradict the village chief when they disagreed.Young men also inter- vened to articulate their concerns and demonstrate what their village had done to improve conditions. Although still respected, the village chief no longer dominated the meeting. In 1963, Ismaila would speak only French in his pharmacy to his customers and refused with some disdain to use Wolof, Senegal’s lingua franca. He felt obliged to give money to the family griot and to take care of the former slaves attached to his family. Forty years later, his own children spoke Wolof as their first language;he answered in Wolof to customers who couldn’t speak French; and he was willing to grant former slaves and low caste people from his village a voice in community affairs back home.Times had changed. In 1968, I spent four months in Dakar during a political crisis that shook the foundations of the regime. Senegal had become a one-party state and 01_Gell_FM.qxd 13/7/05 7:25 PM Page x x Preface allowed few outlets for the people to express their grievances or to affect government policy.Thirty years later I served as Democracy advisor to the USAID mission in Senegal for fifteen months. I personally witnessed the explosion in associational life, the maturing of a free press, and the march toward a more open political system. I also experienced the efforts of party and state officials to hold back the tide of change and to preserve their priv- ileges and control over the people. I also saw donors designing projects without consulting the people they were intended for and creating new organizations that quickly faded away after the project was over because they were not compatible with traditional modes of organizing. My most recent trip to Senegal was in 2004. Many Senegalese expressed their disappointment with the new regime after the 2000 presidential elections ousted Abdou Diouf from office and brought Abdoulaye Wade to power.They complained that Wade was trying to retain too much power in his own hands, that he was favoring his own family,and that corruption was still rampant. What I found was that Wade, despite all the power he had, could not impose his will on the people. The people had become better informed. On several occasions, he had to cancel policies and modify statements when he saw that public opinion was against him.

  • The Question of 'Race' in the Pre-Colonial Southern Sahara
    The Question of ‘Race’ in the Pre-colonial Southern Sahara BRUCE S. HALL One of the principle issues that divide people in the southern margins of the Sahara Desert is the issue of ‘race.’ Each of the countries that share this region, from Mauritania to Sudan, has experienced civil violence with racial overtones since achieving independence from colonial rule in the 1950s and 1960s. Today’s crisis in Western Sudan is only the latest example. However, very little academic attention has been paid to the issue of ‘race’ in the region, in large part because southern Saharan racial discourses do not correspond directly to the idea of ‘race’ in the West. For the outsider, local racial distinctions are often difficult to discern because somatic difference is not the only, and certainly not the most important, basis for racial identities. In this article, I focus on the development of pre-colonial ideas about ‘race’ in the Hodh, Azawad, and Niger Bend, which today are in Northern Mali and Western Mauritania. The article examines the evolving relationship between North and West Africans along this Sahelian borderland using the writings of Arab travellers, local chroniclers, as well as several specific documents that address the issue of the legitimacy of enslavement of different West African groups. Using primarily the Arabic writings of the Kunta, a politically ascendant Arab group in the area, the paper explores the extent to which discourses of ‘race’ served growing nomadic power. My argument is that during the nineteenth century, honorable lineages and genealogies came to play an increasingly important role as ideological buttresses to struggles for power amongst nomadic groups and in legitimising domination over sedentary communities.

Benjamin The Texture of Change: Cloth Commerce and History in West Africa, 1700-1850 Abstract This study re-examines historical change in western Africa during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries through the lens of cotton textiles; that is by focusing on the production, exchange and consumption of cotton cloth, including the evolution of clothing practices, through which the region interacted with other parts of the world. It advances a recent scholarly emphasis to re-assert the centrality of African societies to the history of the early modern trade diasporas that shaped developments around the Atlantic Ocean.

A fact that has been exploited by the violent Islamists, through their provision of services such as health care and employment. Islamist groups have also gained support from local populations in situations of pervasive vio- lence, including sexual and gender-based violence, and they have offered to restore security in exchange for local support. Marginality serves as a place of resistance for many groups, also northern women since many of them have grievances that are linked to their limited access to public services and human rights. For these women, marginality is a site of resistance that moti- vates them to mobilise men to take up arms against an unwilling government. “If our men won’t fi ght, we will” A Gendered Analysis of the Armed Confl ict in Northern Mali Helené Lackenbauer, Magdalena Tham Lindell and Gabriella Ingerstad FOI-R--4121--SE ISSN1650-1942 November 2015 www.foi.se Helené Lackenbauer, Magdalena Tham Lindell and Gabriella Ingerstad "If our men won't fight, we will" A Gendered Analysis of the Armed Conflict in Northern Mali Bild/Cover: (Helené Lackenbauer) Titel ”If our men won’t fight, we will” Title “Om våra män inte vill strida gör vi det” Rapportnr/Report no FOI-R--4121—SE Månad/Month November Utgivningsår/Year 2015 Antal sidor/Pages 77 ISSN 1650-1942 Kund/Customer Utrikes- & Försvarsdepartementen Forskningsområde 8.

  • The Return of Sanio Millet in Thee Sine : Rational Adaptation to Climate Evolution
    Escape-P4-GB.qxp_Escape-MEP 21/10/2017 08:54 Page351 The return of Sanio millet in the Sine Chapter 18 The return of Sanio millet in the Sine Rational adaptation to climate evolution Bertrand MULLER, Richard LALOU, Patrice KOUAKOU, Mame Arame SOUMARÉ, Jérémy BOURGOIN, Séraphin DORÉGO, Bassirou SINE Introduction Sanio millet1 has reappeared in villages in the Sine, between Bambey, Diourbel and Fatick, since the mid-2000s. However, this long cycle millet had disappeared from farms in the northern half of Senegal in the 1970s because of the sudden decrease in rainfall. It was still present further south in the wetter regions of Saloum and beyond as far as the Casamance. As rainfall depths increased from the mid-1990s everywhere in Senegal (SALACK et al., 2011), we put forward the hypothesis that this return could form a robust agronomic ‘marker’ of recent pluviometric evolution in central-western Senegal and show the ability of farmers to adapt rapidly and independently—i.e. without the support of agronomic engineering2—to changes in their environment. However, although the climatic opportunity provided by the return of rainfall seems to be a necessary condition for the production of Sanio, it may not be enough to explain why Sanio is not chosen by all farmers, as it was in the past. Since the climate change theme has become an ordinary paradigm of science and public action, it has become commonplace to recognise that agriculture in Africa lacks financial and technological resources for adapting to climatic and environmental events (ADGER, 2006a and 2006b). But individual or collective adaptation is not new for African 1.

    ISLAM AND POLITICAL CONTESTATION IN THE SAHEL: PROTESTS, RIOTS, AND JIHADIST INSURGENCIES IN MAURITANIA, NIGER, AND MALI By IBRAHIM YAHAYA IBRAHIM A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2018 1 © 2018 Ibrahim Yahaya Ibrahim 2 To my Mom, Oumou Halilou and my Dad, Yahaya Ibrahim 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many people contributed to this research either directly or indirectly. My deepest gratitude goes to my parents, who invested in my education from young age and supported me every step of the way. I also benefited from a warm social and intellectual environment at Madrasatu Sabiloul Houda in Zinder. My sincere appreciation to its founder, Cheikh Chouaibou Abdullah Saleh, who has shown me a quasi-parental level of support. I could not have attended the University of Florida’s Graduate School without the help and generous mentorship of Leonardo A. Villalòn. It has been the greatest honor of my life to be his student. Leonardo A. Villalòn has advised me, assisted me, inspired me, and encouraged me throughout my doctoral journey in ways that words could hardly describe. Certainly, this dissertation could not have been written without his guidance. I will be forever grateful for his immense generosity, kindness, and unyielding support. Over the last six years, I have been fortunate enough to be part of the Sahel Research Group and to regularly attend the Sahel Seminar meetings. I have enjoyed the collegial and stimulating intellectual atmosphere in these settings. This dissertation would not have looked the same without the valuable insights that I gleaned from various conversations that I had with friends and colleagues at the University of Florida.
