The value of global SSA exports increased in nine of the 11 industries during 2002–06, ranging from a 12 percent increase in the value of textile exports to a 262 percent increase in the value of natural rubber exports. For the most part, the nine industries benefited from three common factors: (1) increased global prices as a result of demand growth exceeding supply growth; (2) investment in new and expanded production capacity; and (3) implementation of policies and programs to promote industrial development, whether targeted to a specific industry or applied generally to all industries. Other factors that contributed to the development of these industries and facilitated export growth include: (4) growth of private enterprise and emergence of key business relationships; (5) infrastructural improvements; (6) deeper regional integration; (7) improved product quality; (8) liberalized market regulations; (9) effects of tariff preferences; (10) improved industry organization; and (11) product differentiation. The value of global SSA exports declined for three of the selected industries during 2002–06: spices, wood furniture, and the pineapples sector of tropical fruit, industries which experienced decreases of 47, 46, and 5 percent, respectively. Factors contributing to decreased export values or mitigating export growth included; (1) increased competition in key markets; (2) low crop yield due to weather; (3) political instability; (4) overproduction; (5) effects of exchange rate changes; (6) reduced resource supply; (7) and increased local demand. The change in volume of global SSA exports for most industries varied, ranging from a 28 percent decrease for pineapples to a 15 percent increase for natural rubber, with an exceptionally large increase for shea butter of 660 percent. i CONTENTS Page Abstract ............................................................... i Executive Summary ...............................................

  • World Directory of Minorities
    World Directory of Minorities Africa MRG Directory –> Senegal –> Diola (Jola) Print Page Close Window Diola (Jola) Profile Casamance is a small area between Gambia and Guinea-Bissau. It comprises Ziguinchor and Kolda, two of the country's eight administrative regions, and is almost completely separated from the state by Gambia. The majority ethnic group in Casamance is Diola (Jola), although they make up only around four per cent of Senegal's total population. There are also significant Diola populations in The Gambia and Guinea-Bissau. Traditionally farmers, especially rice cultivators, and traders, there has been an increasing tendency for Diola youth to migrate, at least seasonally, to urban centres. Many Diola practice traditional beliefs, while others are Christians and a smaller number are Muslim. Christians and Muslims often mix those rites with traditional beliefs. Historical context Many Diola sold into slavery in the 17th century century were taken to Britain's American colonies, where they were prized for their rice-growing skills. During and since the colonial period, Diola traditional culture and beliefs were eroded by Islam, Christianity and Western education. Casamance was part of the Gambia River complex and in 1889 was arbitrarily separated from Gambia. During the colonial and early independence period it was a distant and neglected region, and under pressure from Wolof cultural dominance in Senegal. Several movements for the independence of Casamance from Senegal developed in the late 1960s and 1970s. A few separatist groups emerged in the early 1980s, spurred on by new government policies that transferred some traditional lands of subsistence farmers in Casamance to northern Muslims of Wolof, Serer or Peuhl ethnicity for use in growing cash crops.

  • Cape Verde Islands, C. 1500–1879
    TRANSFORMATION OF “OLD” SLAVERY INTO ATLANTIC SLAVERY: CAPE VERDE ISLANDS, C. 1500–1879 By Lumumba Hamilcar Shabaka A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of History- Doctor of Philosophy 2013 ABSTRACT TRANSFORMATION OF “OLD” SLAVERY INTO ATLANTIC SLAVERY: CAPE VERDE ISLANDS, C. 1500–1879 By Lumumba Hamilcar Shabaka This dissertation explores how the Atlantic slave trade integrated the Cape Verde archipelago into the cultural, economic, and political milieu of Upper Guinea Coast between 1500 and 1879. The archipelago is about 300 miles off the coast of Senegal, West Africa. The Portuguese colonized the “uninhabited” archipelago in 1460 and soon began trading with the mainland for slaves and black African slaves became the majority, resulting in the first racialized Atlantic slave society. Despite cultural changes, I argue that cultural practices by the lower classes, both slaves and freed slaves, were quintessentially “Guinean.” Regional fashion and dress developed between the archipelago and mainland with adorning and social use of panu (cotton cloth). In particular, I argue Afro-feminine aesthetics developed in the islands by freed black women that had counterparts in the mainland, rather than mere creolization. Moreover, the study explores the social instability in the islands that led to the exile of liberated slaves, slaves, and the poor, the majority of whom were of African descent as part of the Portuguese efforts to organize the Atlantic slave trade in the Upper th Guinea Coast. With the abolition of slavery in Cape Verde in the 19 century, Portugal used freed slaves and the poor as foot soldiers and a labor force to consolidate “Portuguese Guinea.” Many freed slaves resisted this mandatory service.

Laurent Wagner, Research Officer at Ferdi. Martha Tesfaye Woldemichael, Ph.D. candidate at CERDI. Abstract With its sustained growth, the unprecedented wave of foreign direct investment and the sharp decline in poverty, Sub-Saharan Africa’s track record over the past fifteen years has been largely positive. Yet, this rebound in growth, accompanied by major economic reforms, democratic progress and a lower incidence of conflicts, remains fragile. In Af- rica, structural change—which in most of toady’s developed countries has come about through a transfer of resources from the primary to the secondary sector, then to the tertiary sector—appears to have “bypassed” the secondary sector. …/… Keywords: Sub-Saharan Africa, (de-)industrialization, structural change, manufacturing, services, exports, poverty, employment, productivity, growth.

  • Only-Bus System for Intercity Mass Transit to Reduce Several Numerous Road Traffic Accidents
    Urban Transport XVIII 563 Only-Bus System for intercity mass transit to reduce several numerous road traffic accidents P. E. Faye, H. Azuma & I. Yoshida School of Urban Environmental Sciences, Department of Tourism, Tokyo Metropolitan University, Japan Abstract Senegalese intercity mass transit is dominated by very dilapidated minibuses and unsafe buses and the main roads are not in a good condition for either daytime or night time driving. During the rainy season, many roads are passable only with four-wheel drive vehicles. Due to the poor quality of road infrastructure and the outdatedness of the car fleet, crash risks are high and accidents are very frequent in Senegalese intercity mass transit. The road accidents kill an average of 350 persons and injure 2100 persons a year in Senegal. To overcome this problem of lack of safety, this paper focuses on a new kind of bus-based transit system called Only-Bus System (OBS) to introduce an innovative transit system for significantly reducing the road traffic accidents in Senegal. Analysis was conducted by gathering information from transportation membership and corporations in Senegal, reviewing papers from the USA, Europe, Asia and beyond, etc. The findings show that: 1) the real need of the system is to impose better bus services as the only public road intercity transit mode; 2) neither minibuses nor intercity taxi services will occur in this system; 3) The restriction of small occupancy vehicles and private cars and the introduction of high quality and large size buses could solve both the road traffic accidents and intercity travel demand. Keywords: Only-Bus System, intercity mass transit, accident problem, high quality bus, safety and security.
