My thoughts had been centered on simple, happy events surrounding my visit with family and friends at home. Instead of the usual cursory glance and wave at the Sarita checkpoint for drugs and illegal aliens, I was required to come to a complete stop and declare my citizenship! I realized that my vacation was over, and I began to consider what became of those who were unable to answer the citizenship question correctly. Images of the (detention) center along with the stories told by aliens instantly flooded my mind. Once it has been determined that an alien is merely in the United States hoping for a chance at a better pay scale and is not a politica/ refugee, he is packed up and taken back across the border. In reality it is not quite that simple. While being "processed," he is searched and all belongings are taken from him. Anything of value becomes "lost," since it never existed. This stealing by officials is justified because no alien could possibly come by any money or other valuable through legal means because undocumented aliens are not allowed to work in the United States. Once back in Mexico, he simply removes what he has left, ties everything into a bundle, and wades or swims back across the Rio Grande. At this point, he has very little to lose and everything to gain. He will just be a little more cautious the next time he decides to go further north. An "illegal" once told me that the kindest gift a United States citizen had ever given him was swimming lessons. Once this cycle has been completed a number of times, the alien may decide that staying close to the border is the safest bet, and he has heard that the earnings on a shrimp boat can be amazing. He then talks his way into becoming a crewmember and spends three to six weeks out at sea. When the time comes to return with the catch, the crew occasionally will do some quick calculations and determine that they each will have a larger cut if there are fewer with whom to divide the profits. Since, for all practical purposes, the alien was never on the boat because it is against the law to hire him, he is droppe :1 overboard. Several days later his bloated, unidentifiable body washes up on the beach. One wonders whether his family back home ever learns his fate. Every two or three years OnC reads in the paper of a shrimp boat captain who does not come in with the crew. The story generally goes like this: He was checking 2 the TED (turtle excluder device) and somehow got tangled in the nets and fell overboard, and since he could not swim (amazing, but many can't), he was lost. We all wonder how many crew members he pushed over before he got his. In any event, the family of the captain begins to file lawsuits against every governmental agency that is in charge of the regulation and enforcement of the use of TEDS.

Marx I am here to fight for truth, justice and the American way. —Superman 1978 It's too bad for us "literary" enthusiasts, but it's the truth nevertheless—pictures tell any story more effectively than words. —W. M. Moulton (creator of Wonder Woman, and pioneer polygrapher) In Guernica Picasso expresses the tragedy that is taking place without showing piles of bloody flesh. The import- tant thing in art is after all to transpose reality into an image which is sufficiently enthralling and meaningful so that the viewer gets an even better grasp of that reality. —Jacques Ellul1 Gary T.

  • Fragility, Aid, and State-Building
    Fragility, Aid, and State-building Fragile states pose major development and security challenges. Considerable international resources are therefore devoted to state-building and institutional strengthening in fragile states, with generally mixed results. This volume explores how unpacking the concept of fragility and studying its dimensions and forms can help to build policy-relevant under- standings of how states become more resilient and the role of aid therein. It highlights the particular challenges for donors in dealing with ‘chronically’ (as opposed to ‘temporarily’) fragile states and those with weak legitimacy, as well as how unpacking fragility can provide traction on how to take ‘local context’ into account. Three chapters present new analysis from innovative initiatives to study fragility and fragile state transitions in cross- national perspective. Four chapters offer new focused analysis of selected countries, drawing on comparative methods and spotlighting the role of aid versus historical, institu- tional and other factors. It has become a truism that one-size-fits-all policies do not work in development, whether in fragile or non-fragile states. This should not be confused with a broader rejection of ‘off-the-rack’ policy models that can then be further adjusted in particular situations. Systematic thinking about varieties of fragility helps us to develop this range, drawing lessons – appropriately – from past experience. This book was originally published as a special issue of Third World Quarterly, and is available online as an Open Access monograph. Rachel M. Gisselquist is a political scientist and currently a Research Fellow with UNU-WIDER. She works on the politics of the developing world, with particular attention to ethnic politics and group-based inequality, state fragility, governance and democratiza- tion in sub-Saharan Africa.

Acknowledgements I want to thank Paul Adams for his many years of support, guidance and mentorship during my both my master’s and doctoral studies. I first encountered Paul when I registered for his “Place, Politics and Culture” graduate seminar during my second semester in the interdisciplinary Latin American Studies master’s program. Up until that point, I had felt placeless at UT, floating between history, government and sociology courses that left me feeling uninspired and intellectually homeless. However, as soon as I set foot in Paul’s seminar, I knew I had found my proverbial academic home in geography. His genuine enthusiasm and creativity as a teacher made the study of place, space and landscape seem limitless, inviting and full of possibility. Through his eyes, mundane practices like walking through a city or looking at advertising in the suburbs became transformed into infinitely fascinating reflections on culture and society. I can say without a doubt that I would have never become a geographer were it not for Paul’s creative inspiration.

At the heart of these experiences lies my challenging dual-role as both quake-survivor and therapist – I was betwixt-and-between quake-destruction and arts-creation. I aimed to make sens/e of this in ways that may be useful to applied-arts practitioners working in similar contexts. My sens/e-making quest blended autoethnography, a/r/tography and arts therapy-as-research.

  • Falling Into Place
    Policy thatworksforforestsandpeople4No: G Falling into place HANA Ghanaian forestry is in the process of rediscovering its past, consolidating what it does best, and G learning from innovative new forest management initiatives. Falling Into Place charts the evolution of policies that affect forests. It describes how the ‘timber-first’ orientation of forestry is giving way to more collaborative policy and forest management for a greater range of forest values, and how tactical Policy that approaches led by key opinion-formers and policy-makers have been successful at overcoming works for forests resistance to change. There are major challenges ahead: combining the economic potential of forest and people resources with maintaining environmental quality and human well-being; and rooting decision-making in places where people are really motivated to take action. Yet, after years of ‘things falling apart’, it seems that Ghanaian forestry is beginning to fall into place. “Through a careful compilation and analysis of data and case studies, Falling Into Place provides a brilliant examination of forest policy and policy processes in Ghana. Its conclusions and recommendations indicate plausible future directions for improved policy. It will be ex- tremely useful for all those interested in understanding and explaining forest policy in particu- lar, and policy in general”. E.O.Nsenkyire, Chief Conservator of Forests, Forestry Department, Ghana Policy that works for forests and people series Forest issues often concern large amounts of money, long timeframes, huge areas of land, and diverse livelihoods. The issues are complex and vary from place to place. However, a pattern of forest problems is common to many countries: continuing loss of natural forests; over-concentrated control and inequitable access to forests; an ill-informed public; and poorly-resourced, inflexible forestry hana Kotey institutions.

  • Role of Ethical Leadership in Time Between Times
    THE ROLE OF ETHICAL LEADERSHIP IN TIMES BETWEEN TIMES BY PROFESSOR GORDON N ZIDE CHAIRPERSON: GOVERNING COUNCIL: SETH MOKITIMI METHODIST SEMINARY PROFESSOR EMERITUS (IN ANTHROPOLOGY) : UNISA VICE-CHANCELLOR & PRINCIPAL (DESIGNATE): VUT EVENT: SMMS GALA DINNER DATE: 20 MAY 2017 TIME: 19H00 1 | P a g e 1. INTRODUCTION The subject of Leadership has been written about for a very long time and covers such aspects as: - Business - Cultural - Traditional - Spiritual - Political - Religious and - More recently Ethical It goes without saying that at the heart of all styles of Leadership – Ethical Leadership plays a very important role as this is about the moral fibre of society. Indeed even Business Leadership can only put its money where its mouth is and where there is evidence of Ethical and Moral Leadership. King IV equally catapults Ethical Leadership to a category of its own and it is because of these considerations that I thought it prudent to address you on this subject. The topic of my presentation reads thus: “The Role of Ethical Leadership in Times between Times” The topic is appropriate because of the current political climate in the Country where “Winds of change are blowing everywhere as things fall Apart” - to borrow both from Harold Macmillan and Chinua Achebe. 2. SOUTH AFRICA AT THE CROSS-ROADS Whilst it is common knowledge that the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa is the Supreme Law of the Country and that which has to be upheld, honoured, respected and protected by all the citizens of the Country and above all by the State President, who, on being inducted into office, took an oath that he will uphold, honour, respect and protect the Constitution in discharging his duties, it was however, a sad day in 2015, when the President made a public apology to the South African population that he had in fact failed to uphold, honour, respect and to protect the said Constitution.
