  • One Guy Named Mo: Race, Nation and the London 2012 Olympic Games
    One guy named Mo: race, nation and the London 2012 Olympic Games Original article submission date: 23 January 2015 Revised article submission date: 28 April 2015 1 Abstract The triumphal track and field performances of British distance runner, Mo Farah, at the London 2012 Olympic Games were lauded both for their athletic endeavour and for their perceived validation of the rhetoric of ethnic and cultural diversity and inclusion in which the Games were ensconced. By analysing coverage of the athlete’s achievements in mainstream British newspapers, this article presents a more complicated and critical reading of the relationship between Britishness, multiculture, the politics of inclusion and the London Games. Employing a Critical Discourse Approach, the article shows that Farah was constructed and represented by the media using narratives that are familiar, palatable and reassuring to the public; and that sustain hegemonic models of racialised nationhood and dominant ideologies around sport. 2 Introduction The triumphal track and field performances of British distance runner, Mohammed ‘Mo’ Farah, at the London 2012 Olympic Games – gold medallist in the men’s 5000m and 10000m events – were lauded rightly for their extraordinary athletic endeavour. Only six men before him had achieved this Olympic “distance double”. As a Somali-born, black, British Muslim athlete, his accomplishments were also celebrated for their perceived validation of the rhetoric of ethnic and cultural diversity in which these Games were ensconced. Immediately after crossing the finish line for his first victory, the jubilant Farah wrapped himself in the flag of the United Kingdom (UK). He was joined on the running track by his (heavily pregnant) Yemeni-Palestinian wife, Tania, and their daughter, Rhianna, forming one of the most iconic images of these Olympics for British sports fans.

  • The Cases of Nagorno-Karabakh and Somaliland
    Squaring the circle of statehood? Recognition strategy in de facto states: the cases of Nagorno-Karabakh and Somaliland Alexander S. Carter, B.A. (Hons), LL.B (Hons) June 2018 Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Political Science (International Relations) in the Graduate School of Social Sciences Supervisor: Dr Dimitris Bouris Second Reader: Dr Darshan Vigneswaran Acknowledgements I am grateful to my supervisor Dimitris Bouris for his open-mindedness regarding my choice of topic and also his encouragement, comments and general support in the completion of this thesis. I would like to thank Darshan Vigneswaran for his time in acting as Second Reader. Thanks also go to Sofia Anton, Ville Pennanen and Giorgi Stepnadze for providing contacts relating to the case studies and to the interviewees and respondents for their time and insights. To Emmy and Karen – thank you. To the right for people to determine their own borders – a step along the road to a world without any. Abstract This thesis explores the nature and impact of contemporary unrecognised statehood through an analysis of the current recognition strategies of two de facto states: Nagorno-Karabakh and Somaliland. Through an assessment of how, in the absence of recognition, these de facto states engage with the wider landscape of recognised states in seeking to attain their goal of recognition via both traditional and non-traditional methods, the likelihood of whether the de facto state in question stands to achieve its stated aim is assessed. The thesis draws three main conclusions. First, the character of a de facto state’s recognition strategy is heavily determined by its own specific circumstances.

It is being submitted for the degree of the Doctor of Philosophy in the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. To the best of my knowledge, it has not been submitted before for any degree or examination at any other university. _______________________ M. Iqbal D. Jhazbhay Date: _________________________________ Supervisor, Professor John J. Stremlau Date: ii Dedication To my Parents, Grandparents, Elders and the Children of Somaliland iii Acknowledgements This thesis owes a debt of gratitude to many souls. This study has been six years in the making, a multi-faceted and challenging intellectual journey, and one which would indeed not have been possible without the co-operation and encouragement of numerous individuals and institutions. Permit me to begin with my beloved wife Naseema and sons Adeeb and Faadil, who supported my nine visits to Somaliland, the Horn of Africa and tolerated my absence from them during the school holidays, where I was able to quietly work on my thesis. A debt of gratitude is also due to Professor John J Stremlau, my supervisor, for his intellectual support and consistent reminders to develop the chapters of this thesis. His significant feedback and time during difficult moments is gratefully appreciated.

This submission was prepared with the assistance of reports and information sent to DefendDefenders, the secretariat of the East and Horn of Africa Human Rights Defenders Network (EHAHRD-Net), by our members and partners throughout the sub-region. Over the past six months governments in the sub-region have sought to restrict legitimate expressions of civilian dissent like peaceful demonstrations, the free expression of human rights defenders (HRDs) and media, as well as targeted civil society organisations (CSOs) through various strategies of harassment and repression. Less than a year ahead of Burundi’s contentious 2020 election, the UN Commission of Inquiry highlighted a climate of fear and intimidation in the country, with state agents and Imbonerakure militias committing serious human rights violations against civilians, along with several limitations on freedom of expression and association.
