Lawrance and Ruby P Andrew INTRODUCTION In the decade since the US Department of State (USDOS) instituted the production of its annual Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Report, anti- trafficking measures have been passed across the globe, and the US role in setting standards and paradigms for anti-trafficking has been extensively analyzed and criticized.1 Through its Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons (OMCTP), the USDOS’ three-tier categorization of nations’ trafficking measures continues to play a pivotal role in shaming recalcitrant nations into responding to accusations of trafficking within and across their respective borders.2 No region has experienced so dramatic a transformation with respect to the USDOS agenda of “prevention, protection, and prosecution” than sub- Saharan Africa.3 No sub-Saharan African nation had an anti-trafficking statute at the start of the millennium. -

Islam and Political Contestation in the Sahel: Protests, Riots, and Jihadist Insurgencies in Mauritania, Niger, and Mali
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. -

DEDICATION This work is dedicated to my beloved parents. ABSTRACT The dawn of independence in Zimbabwe in 1980 was received with high hopes and expectations by the people but after twenty years of black majority rule, the crisis of the post-colonial condition, well documented in other African countries began to be repeated in Zimbabwe. After experimenting with Western projects of development and neoliberal globalization, Zimbabwe, and specifically higher education institutions such as the University of Zimbabwe became embroiled in a crisis of unprecedented magnitude. -

PROFESSOR WALTER JOSEPH KAMBA Citation for Conferral Of
PROFESSOR WALTER JOSEPH KAMBA Citation for Conferral of Doctor of Letters (honoris causa) Mr Chancellor, I present Professor Walter Joseph Kamba for admission to the degree of Doctor of Letters (honoris causa). Walter Kamba has devoted his life to the development of education in Africa. Indeed, he has played a pre-eminent role in the establishment of a system of university education throughout the emerging nations of Africa in the post-colonial period. His outstanding dedication to this cause was recognised earlier this year by the National University of Lesotho when it awarded him the Fifteenth Anniversary Distinguished Service Award “in appreciation and in recognition of” Professor Kamba’s “leadership role and for the outstanding contributions made to education in Africa.” Walter Kamba was born in Southern Rhodesia in 1931 while that country was still under colonial rule. Little did anyone realise at that time that this child was destined as an adult to play such an important role in the emergence of the independent nation of Zimbabwe. Walter Kamba attended the University of Cape Town where he obtained both a Bachelor of Arts degree and a Bachelor of Law degree. Upon graduation, he was a legal practitioner to the High Court of Southern Rhodesia. During this period, he spent time in the United States at Yale Law School where he obtained his Master of Law degree. Walter Kamba’s keen interest in international legal studies subsequently took him to the United Kingdom where, in 1967, he was appointed as a Research Fellow at the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies at the University of London. -
Introduction and Annotated Bibliography
Introduction and Annotated Bibliography Tal Tamari & Dmitry Bondarev The interpretation of the Qur’an, and more generally Arabic books, in the languages of sub-Saharan Africa is currently a widespread practice, and for some languages and in some regions, also an ancient one; yet it has gone largely unstudied and unnoticed. Most of these commentaries have been oral, but in some areas they took the form of marginal or interlinear annotations of the sacred Book; the earliest known example, in Old Kanembu, dates back to the seventeenth century. In the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, a considerable number of commentaries and translations of the meanings of the Qur’an have been written out for publication in printed form; voice and video recordings of Qur’an exegetical sessions have circulated as well. The research presented here leads to a reevaluation of the nature and potentialities of African languages, as well as of the achievements of Islamic scholarship in sub-Saharan Africa, while revealing little-known configurations of bilingualism, multilingualism, and interplay of the oral and the written. There is increasing evidence that Muslim scholars, expressing themselves in several African languages, developed lexical and grammatical structures fully adequate for communicating the concepts and contents of Islamic curricula. This special issue, growing out of a panel at the fourth-biannual conference of the European Council on African Studies held at Uppsala University, Sweden, in June 2011, presents material, as did that panel, on Old Kanembu and its contemporary offshoot, Tarjumo, a language form used exclusively for the explanation of Arabic books; Hausa; Swahili; and Manding (specifically Bamana and Maninka); to which are now added Songhay-Zarma and, indirectly, Fulfulde (inasmuch as commentaries now transmitted in Songhay-Zarma were transmitted in that language; see also the analysis of Fulfulde mystical poetry presented in the context of a book review). -
