  • Getting Creative About Development
    Atlantic Council AFRICA CENTER ISSUE BRIEF Getting Creative About Development SEPTEMBER 2018 AUBREY HRUBY y 2035, sub-Saharan Africa will have more working-age people than the rest of the world combined. African governments col- lectively need to create eighteen million new jobs each year to absorb the large, young, and ambitious population coming to Bworking age.1 But technological advances, combined with the underde- veloped infrastructure of most African nations, mean that the tried and true model of export-oriented industrialization, which allowed the East and Southeast Asian economies to develop very rapidly, is unlikely to produce adequate job creation in the vast majority of African markets. In fact, manufacturing as a share of total economic activity in Africa has stagnated at about 10 percent,2 and—though there are notable excep- tions, such as Ethiopia—the continent as a whole is deindustrializing.3 Agriculture still continues to serve as the backbone of most African economies, with over 70 percent of Africans earning a living in that sector.4 But as Africa urbanizes, the composition of economic activity is rap- idly changing, shifting away from agriculture and towards the services sector. In 2015, services accounted for 58 percent of sub-Saharan GDP (up from 47 percent in 2005).5 More significantly, 33 percent of African 1 Céline Allard et al., Regional Economic Outlook: sub-Saharan Africa 2015, Internation- al Monetary Fund, April 2015, https://www.imf.org/~/media/Websites/IMF/import- ed-flagship-issues/external/pubs/ft/reo/2015/afr/eng/pdf/_sreo0415pdf.ashx. 2 Brahima Sangafowa Coulibaly, “Africa’s Alternative Path to Development,” The Brook- ings Institution, May 3, 2018, https://www.brookings.edu/opinions/africas-alterna- tive-path-to-development/.

  • Tuareg Music and Capitalist Reckonings in Niger a Dissertation Submitted
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Rhythms of Value: Tuareg Music and Capitalist Reckonings in Niger A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by Eric James Schmidt 2018 © Copyright by Eric James Schmidt 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Rhythms of Value: Tuareg Music and Capitalist Reckonings in Niger by Eric James Schmidt Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Timothy D. Taylor, Chair This dissertation examines how Tuareg people in Niger use music to reckon with their increasing but incomplete entanglement in global neoliberal capitalism. I argue that a variety of social actors—Tuareg musicians, fans, festival organizers, and government officials, as well as music producers from Europe and North America—have come to regard Tuareg music as a resource by which to realize economic, political, and other social ambitions. Such treatment of culture-as-resource is intimately linked to the global expansion of neoliberal capitalism, which has led individual and collective subjects around the world to take on a more entrepreneurial nature by exploiting representations of their identities for a variety of ends. While Tuareg collective identity has strongly been tied to an economy of pastoralism and caravan trade, the contemporary moment demands a reimagining of what it means to be, and to survive as, Tuareg. Since the 1970s, cycles of drought, entrenched poverty, and periodic conflicts have pushed more and more Tuaregs to pursue wage labor in cities across northwestern Africa or to work as trans- ii Saharan smugglers; meanwhile, tourism expanded from the 1980s into one of the region’s biggest industries by drawing on pastoralist skills while capitalizing on strategic essentialisms of Tuareg culture and identity.

    Five Clips from Africa | norient.com 2 Oct 2021 11:12:51 Five Clips from Africa PLAYLIST by Georg Milz To start the new year ethnologist and journalist Georg Milz sent us a list with five music videos from all around Africa. He shows us some really nice clips between pidgin pop, hip hop pantsula and house, from Nigeria and Mozambique to South Africa and Kenya. By the way he is shaping coupé-décalé from – and that might be surprising – Geneva, Switzerland. Artist: Timaya (Nigeria) Track: Ukwu Pidgin pop music from Nigeria got coined the term Afrobeats with an «s». Even though unlikely Fela Kuti's Afrobeat, Afrobeats is rather unpolitical it is still the most celebrated soundtrack in african nightclubs of today, with a growing impact on global pop music. It fuses and borrows rhythms and melodies from all kind of genres such as Congolese Soukous, R'n'B, Afrobeat, Coupé-Décalé or South African House and spices them up with local lyrics in pidgin english and auto-tune effects. Artists such as P-Square, D’banj or Wizkid are among top selling artists and first stars of this african music movement being played in clubs in the US aswell as in Kingston Jamaica. Timaya is another upcoming star from the megacity of Lagos. With his hit single «Sonko» he recently put a spotlight on the dancehall culture of Lagos biggest ghetto Ajegunle. On his latest song called «Ukuw», meaning waist, he jumped on the bandwagon of Nigeria's state to the art afrohouse productions. This joint not only got us twerking in our office last year.

  • Alternate African Reality. Electronic, Electroacoustic and Experimental Music from Africa and the Diaspora
    Alternate African Reality, cover for the digital release by Cedrik Fermont, 2020. Alternate African Reality. Electronic, electroacoustic and experimental music from Africa and the diaspora. Introduction and critique. "Always use the word ‘Africa’ or ‘Darkness’ or ‘Safari’ in your title. Subtitles may include the words ‘Zanzibar’, ‘Masai’, ‘Zulu’, ‘Zambezi’, ‘Congo’, ‘Nile’, ‘Big’, ‘Sky’, ‘Shadow’, ‘Drum’, ‘Sun’ or ‘Bygone’. Also useful are words such as ‘Guerrillas’, ‘Timeless’, ‘Primordial’ and ‘Tribal’. Note that ‘People’ means Africans who are not black, while ‘The People’ means black Africans. Never have a picture of a well-adjusted African on the cover of your book, or in it, unless that African has won the Nobel Prize. An AK-47, prominent ribs, naked breasts: use these. If you must include an African, make sure you get one in Masai or Zulu or Dogon dress." – Binyavanga Wainaina (1971-2019). © Binyavanga Wainaina, 2005. Originally published in Granta 92, 2005. Photo taken in the streets of Maputo, Mozambique by Cedrik Fermont, 2018. "Africa – the dark continent of the tyrants, the beautiful girls, the bizarre rituals, the tropical fruits, the pygmies, the guns, the mercenaries, the tribal wars, the unusual diseases, the abject poverty, the sumptuous riches, the widespread executions, the praetorian colonialists, the exotic wildlife - and the music." (extract from the booklet of Extreme Music from Africa (Susan Lawly, 1997). Whether intended as prank, provocation or patronisation or, who knows, all of these at once, producer William Bennett's fake African compilation Extreme Music from Africa perfectly fits the African clichés that Binyavanga Wainaina described in his essay How To Write About Africa : the concept, the cover, the lame references, the stereotypical drawing made by Trevor Brown..

  • Africa's Soft Power : Philosophies, Political Values, Foreign Policies and Cultural Exports / Oluwaseun Tella
    “This seven-chapter book is a powerful testimonial to consummate African scholarship. Its analysis is rigorous, insightful, lucid and authoritative, providing fresh perspectives on selected uniquely African philosophies, and the potential­ ities, deployment and limitations of soft power in Africa’s international relations. The author rigorously Africanises the concept, broadening its analytic scope from its biased Western methodology, thus brilliantly fulfilling that great African pro­ verb made famous by the inimitable Chinua Achebe: ‘that until the lions have their own historians, the history of the hunt will always glorify the hunter’. This is truly an intellectual tour de force.” W. Alade Fawole, Professor of International Relations, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria. “This book addresses an important tool in the arsenal of foreign policy from an African perspective. African states have significant soft power capacities, although soft power is not always appreciated as a lever of influence, or fully integrated into countries’ foreign policy strategies. Tella takes Nye’s original concept and Africanises it, discussing Egypt, Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa via their respective philosophies of Pharaonism, Harambee, Omolúwàbí and Ubuntu. This study is a critical contribution to the literature on African foreign policies and how to use soft power to greater effect in building African agency on the global stage.” Elizabeth Sidiropoulos, Chief Executive, South African Institute of International Affairs, Johannesburg, South Africa. “Soft power is seldom associated with African states, given decades bedevilled by coup d’états, brazen dictatorships and misrule. This ground-breaking book is certainly a tour de force in conceptualising soft power in the African context.

    African Diaspora 7 (2014) 260–289 brill.com/afdi Heritage, Blackness and Afro-Cool Styling Africanness in Amsterdam* Marleen de Witte Department of Sociology and Anthropology, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands [email protected] Abstract This article focuses on the recent emergence of an “Afro-Dutch” category of self- identification among young people in Amsterdam. Dutch-born youth of different Afro- Caribbean and African backgrounds show a new sense of (and search for) a shared African heritage, and a growing desire for public exposure and recognition of this Africanness. Manifesting in, for example, media initiatives, performing arts, cultural festivals, and bodily fashions, this trend is characterized by an aesthetic emphasis on globalized African styles and by political struggles about the inclusion of African her- itage in Dutch imaginations of nationhood. Approaching Africanness as a process of becoming and a practiceofself-styling, this article explores the convergence between the renewed interest in African roots among Dutch-born Afro-Caribbeans and the ways in which Ghanaian youth engage with their African origins. It discerns three prominent, but contested tropes with regard to their framing and design of Africanness: “African heritage”, “blackness” and “Afro-cool”. Keywords Africanness – Afro-Dutch – Self-styling – Cultural Heritage – Blackness – Afro-cool * This paper was presented at the African Studies Association Annual Meeting 2012, Philadel- phia, and at the 20th International Conference of Europeanists in Amsterdam, 2013. The related research was funded by a veni grant from the Netherlands Organization for Scien- tific Research (nwo). I wish to thank Gladys Akom Ankobrey, Francio Guadeloupe, afdi editors Hélène Neveu Kringelbach and Karel Arnaut, and two anonymous reviewers for their extremely stimulating comments and for opening up exciting areas of debate, which I look forward to exploring further in the near future.

  • Nigeria's 'New Oil': Fueling the Growth of the Music
    CASE STUDY NIGERIA’S ‘NEW OIL’: FUELING THE GROWTH OF THE MUSIC INDUSTRY IN LAGOS THROUGH ENTREPRENEURSHIP April 2018 Caroline Fry Georgina Campbell Flatter PhD Candidate, MIT Sloan Executive Director, The Legatum Center Senior Lecturer, MIT Sloan Sarah Jane Maxted Prof. Fiona Murray Executive Director, MIT REAP MIT Sloan Associate Dean for Innovation Co-Director, MIT Innovation Initiative Nigeria’s ‘New Oil’: Fueling the Growth of the Music Industry in Lagos through Entrepreneurship April 2018 Caroline Fry1, Georgina Campbell Flatter, Sarah-Jane Maxted, Fiona Murray This case study is dedicated to Bolaji Finnih, passed away unexpectedly in December 2017. He was a true example of the ways in which entrepreneurship can have impact. He will be remembered by all and in particular through everything he did for the MIT community as well as across the African entrepreneurship community, particularly his home city of Lagos, Nigeria. Bolaji was a 2015 MIT Sloan School of Management Fellow, 2015 MIT Legatum Center for Development and Entrepreneurship Fellow, and Team Champion of the MIT Regional Entrepreneurship Acceleration Program, Team Lagos. More than that he was a true champion of African entrepreneurship, working relentlessly to support our community, increase MIT’s engagement in Africa, and raise the profile of the African continent. Through his company, Techpreneur, he established a home and support platform for thousands of entrepreneurs across Africa. Bolaji’s dedication, optimism, and passion created a powerful dynamic both within MIT’s ecosystem and in the broader global innovation community. We celebrate his legacy by continuing to build this global community, by strengthening our commitment to developing innovation ecosystems, and by showcasing and celebrating the greatest examples of entrepreneurs, like Bolaji, doing what they do best—turning challenge into opportunity.

  • State of Artistic Freedom 2020 Report Is a Research Feelings
    THE STATE OF ARTISTIC FREEDOM 2020 FREEMUSE THE STATE OF ARTISTIC FREEDOM 2020 1 Freemuse is an independent international organisation advocating for and defending freedom of artistic expression. We believe that at the heart of violations of artistic freedom is the effort to silence opposing or less preferred views and values by those in power – politically, religiously or societally – mostly due to fear of their transformative effect. With this assumption, we can address root causes rather than just symptoms – if we hold violators accountable. Our approach to artistic freedom is human rights-based as it provides an international legal framework and lays out the principles of accountability, equality and non-discrimination, and participation. ©2020 Freemuse.
