  • The Political Ecology of a Small-Scale Fishery, Mweru-Luapula, Zambia
    Managing inequality: the political ecology of a small-scale fishery, Mweru-Luapula, Zambia Bram Verelst1 University of Ghent, Belgium 1. Introduction Many scholars assume that most small-scale inland fishery communities represent the poorest sections of rural societies (Béné 2003). This claim is often argued through what Béné calls the "old paradigm" on poverty in inland fisheries: poverty is associated with natural factors including the ecological effects of high catch rates and exploitation levels. The view of inland fishing communities as the "poorest of the poorest" does not imply directly that fishing automatically lead to poverty, but it is linked to the nature of many inland fishing areas as a common-pool resources (CPRs) (Gordon 2005). According to this paradigm, a common and open-access property resource is incapable of sustaining increasing exploitation levels caused by horizontal effects (e.g. population pressure) and vertical intensification (e.g. technological improvement) (Brox 1990 in Jul-Larsen et al. 2003; Kapasa, Malasha and Wilson 2005). The gradual exhaustion of fisheries due to "Malthusian" overfishing was identified by H. Scott Gordon (1954) and called the "tragedy of the commons" by Hardin (1968). This influential model explains that whenever individuals use a resource in common – without any form of regulation or restriction – this will inevitably lead to its environmental degradation. This link is exemplified by the prisoner's dilemma game where individual actors, by rationally following their self-interest, will eventually deplete a shared resource, which is ultimately against the interest of each actor involved (Haller and Merten 2008; Ostrom 1990). Summarized, the model argues that the open-access nature of a fisheries resource will unavoidably lead to its overexploitation (Kraan 2011).

  • Ivory and Slaves in East and Central Africa (C
    Ivory and slaves in East and Central Africa (c. 1800- 1880) Com- Under Central and East Africa we include most of the land north of the Limpopo and Pari' south of the Equator. The coast of what is often called West Central Africa featured in the chapters on the Atlantic slave trade and West Africa, but the peoples and routes that other supplied the slaves for the coast will be discussed here. There are some similarities ports of between the situation in North and West Africa and that existing in East and Central Africa Africa. In Northeast Africa and in the central Sudan of West Africa we come across warlords such as Zubayr and Rabih. In Central and East Africa we meet up with leaders such as Msiri, Mirambo, Tippu Tip and Mlozi who also built up secondary trading and conquest states that dealt in slaves and ivory. In these other regions we witness some empire building during the period of the jihads by people such as al-Hajj Umar and Samory Toure, by Mohammad Ali in Egypt and Menelik in Ethiopia. In this region too, we have some empire building and state expansion, for example on the island of Madagascar by the Merina, in the area of the Great Lakes by Buganda, and also the growth of the trading empire of the Omani Arabs in East Africa. But large empires were scarce because the geography did not encourage the growth of big polities. It was mainly in the Great Lakes region that we find sizeable states such as Buganda.

  • The Return of Chloroquine-Susceptible Plasmodium Falciparum Malaria in Zambia
    Mwanza et al. Malar J (2016) 15:584 DOI 10.1186/s12936-016-1637-3 Malaria Journal RESEARCH Open Access The return of chloroquine‑susceptible Plasmodium falciparum malaria in Zambia Sydney Mwanza1, Sudhaunshu Joshi2, Michael Nambozi1, Justin Chileshe1, Phidelis Malunga1, Jean‑Bertin Bukasa Kabuya1, Sebastian Hachizovu1, Christine Manyando1, Modest Mulenga1 and Miriam Laufer2* Abstract Background: Plasmodium falciparum resistance to anti-malarial drugs remains a major obstacle to malaria control and elimination. The parasite has developed resistance to every anti-malarial drug introduced for wide-scale treat‑ ment. However, the spread of resistance may be reversible. Malawi was the first country to discontinue chloroquine use due to widespread resistance. Within a decade of the removal of drug pressure, the molecular marker of chloro‑ quine-resistant malaria had disappeared and the drug was shown to have excellent clinical efficacy. Many countries have observed decreases in the prevalence of chloroquine resistance with the discontinuation of chloroquine use. In Zambia, chloroquine was used as first-line treatment for uncomplicated malaria until treatment failures led the Ministry of Health to replace it with artemether-lumefantrine in 2003. Specimens from a recent study were analysed to evaluate prevalence of chloroquine-resistant malaria in Nchelenge district a decade after chloroquine use was discontinued. Methods: Parasite DNA was extracted from dried blood spots collected by finger-prick in pregnant women who were enrolling in a clinical trial. The specimens underwent pyrosequencing to determine the genotype of the P. falci- parum chloroquine resistance transporter, the gene that is associated with CQ resistance. Results: Three-hundred and two specimens were successfully analysed.

  • Paper Macola
    ‘“It Means as if We Are Excluded from the Good Freedom”: Thwarted Expectations of Independence and Royal Politics in the Luapula Province of Zambia, 1964-1966’ Giacomo Macola Centre of African Studies, University of Cambridge Introduction Owing to the dearth of primary sources available for study and to shifting historiographical trends and fashions, contemporary historians of south-central Africa have proved reluctant to engage with Zambia’s nationalist and post-colonial trajectories.1 This paper ought to be seen as a modest contribution to the rectification of this comparative scholarly neglect.2 As elsewhere in Africa, the gap left open by historians in the 1970s and 1980s was plugged by political scientists whose principal concern was the construction of ‘macro-political theory relevant to politics in all places and all times by the application to empirical cases of such overarching notions as “modernization”.’3 But the adoption of what Bratton calls the ‘viewpoint of the centre’ came at a cost, for it frequently provided the excuse for overlooking the real, lived experiences of nationalist militants and other low-level political actors. However sophisticated, nation-wide studies of major structural and political dynamics have taught us very little about popular appraisals of nationalism and the ultimate meaning of independence for the people who played a (more or less) active role in bringing this political transformation into being. 4 With the notable exceptions of Bates and Bratton – by whose perspectives this paper is informed5 – few social scientists have seen fit to emulate Epstein’s classic study of militancy in Luanshya,6 and in-depth analyses of the local articulation of broad processes of political change have remained thin on the ground.

  • CHAPTER ONE HISTORIOGRAPHY of TRIBUTE in MWATA KAZEMBE's KINGDOM BEFORE 1890 the Beginnings of the Kingdom of Mwata Kazembe Ca
    CHAPTER ONE HISTORIOGRAPHY OF TRIBUTE IN MWATA KAZEMBE’S KINGDOM BEFORE 1890 The beginnings of the kingdom of Mwata Kazembe can be traced in Chinyata‟s loyalty in the payment of tribute to Mwata Yamvo.1 One aspect of tribute is that it is an act of obeisance as the giver is a subject of the receiver or of lower rank to the receiver. There is authority on one hand and respect from the other. Tribute was a political tool dividing society between the political elite and the masses but it still differentiated the political elite in accord with the amount of power they possessed. In the kingdom of Mwata Kazembe, tribute existed in the form of Ikoto (tribute money), Mufungo (tribute asked for by the Mwata), and Mulambo which was tribute voluntarily given to the Mwata.2 Oral Lunda royal history shows that gifts and tribute existed in Mwata Kazembe‟s kingdom. The praise of Nga‟nda Bilonda, the first Mwata Kazembe, which was recited by Mwata Kazembe 2 Kanyembo 1 as “ami mutunda mwabilwa ntanda, 1 Mwata Kazembe XIV and E. Labrecque trans.
