Maps 4, 5 and 6 contain present-day contours of Mozambique to ease identification of historical locations. Concerning Map 7, all earlier relevant maps I know of depict the northern boundary of Chôa Administrative Post with Nhampassa Administrative Posts as a continuation of the boundary between Catandica and Nhampassa Administrative Posts. However, such continuation must be incorrect, since the northern boundary is north of Nhabuto. In Maps 8 and 9 the main locations ( sedes ) of the three administrative posts are repeated to facilitate comparison.

[email protected] 74 CAPE VERDEAN KRIOLU AS AN EPISTEMOLOGY OF CONTACT Cape Verdean Kriolu as an epistemology of contact Kriolu as language and sentiment represents a “contact perspective”, an outlook on life and medium of identiication historically structured by the encounter. Cape Verde was born out of an early creole formation and movement is an essential part of Cape Verdean practices of language and identity. Most recently, the Portuguese state and third-party real estate developers have provided another scenario in the long series of (dis) emplacement dramas for Cape Verdeans as Lisbon administrations have pushed to demol- ish “improvised” housing and regroup people into “social” neighborhoods.

  • REVIEWS Klíma, Jan. 2017. Dějiny Kapverdských Ostrovů, Svatého
    REVIEWS I already mentioned that Horáková’s and Werkman’s book deals less with knowledge production in Africa than with knowledge production about Africa. While, for example, Viera Pawliková-Vilhanová rightly deplores that “the history of Africa” has only been viewed from a Eurocentric perspective, because there are still no “true African” theories, she does not deal with African perceptions of knowledge production. Hana Horáková’s and Kateřina Werkman’s book is a thorough exploration of the topic “Knowledge about Africa,” sensitising its readers to the many (mis-)representations about Africa and Africans. These are (still) important and relevant statements, albeit no longer particularly innovative. Thus, the book describes convincingly and thoroughly how patterns first elaborated in Said’s “Orientalism” also play a central role in the knowledge production on Africa. Georg Klute Klíma, Jan. 2017. Dějiny Kapverdských ostrovů, Svatého Tomáše a Princova ostrova (History of the Cape Verde islands, and the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe). 2nd edition. Prague: Nakladatelství Lidové noviny, 384 pp. The second edition of the publication under review is testimony to the fact that interest in understanding the history of Africa among Czech readers is constantly growing. In its series on the history of nations, the publisher Nakladatelství Lidové noviny has already covered 13 African countries, while the author of the reviewed publication has previously contributed to works devoted to Angola, Mozambique, Guinea-Bissau and Namibia. In addition, Jan Klíma, the leading Czech authority on the Lusophone world, is also the author of histories on Portugal and Brazil. The author has already displayed his deep knowledge of Lusophone Africa in a number of previous books and articles devoted to topics such as the Portuguese Colonial War.

  • Boubacar Barry Is One of the Leading Figures in West African Historiogra- Phy
    Boubacar Barry is one of the leading figures in West African historiogra- phy. His authoritative study of 400 years of Senegambian history is unri- valled in its detailed grasp of published and unpublished materials. Taking as its subject the vast area covering the Senegal and Gambia river basins, this book explores the changing dynamics of regional and Atlantic trade, clashes between traditional African and emergent Muslim authorities, the slave trade and the colonial system, and current obstacles to the integra- tion of the region's modern states. Professor Barry argues cogently for the integrity of the Senegambian region as a historical subject, and he forges a coherent narrative from the dismemberment and unification which char- acterized Senegambia's development from the fifteenth to the nineteenth century. This newly translated study is a vital tool in our understanding of West African history.

  • Mapping Second Generation Cape Verdean Youth Identity in the Greater Boston Area
    “WE EAT CACHUPA, NOT CLAM CHOWDER:” MAPPING SECOND GENERATION CAPE VERDEAN YOUTH IDENTITY IN THE GREATER BOSTON AREA A dissertation presented by Paul Khalil Saucier Submitted to The Department of Sociology and Anthropology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the field of Sociology Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts September, 2008 1 “WE EAT CACHUPA, NOT CLAM CHOWDER:” MAPPING SECOND GENERATION CAPE VERDEAN YOUTH IDENTITY IN THE GREATER BOSTON AREA by Paul Khalil Saucier ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology in the Graduate School Arts and Sciences of Northeastern University, September 2008 2 ABSTRACT On the basis of fieldwork conducted in the Greater Boston area from May 2007 to May 2008, this dissertation explores the ways in which second-generation Cape Verdean youth in the Greater Boston area negotiate their identity as Cape Verdean and, by extension, as black through multiple articulations of diaspora. Using the ethnographic method this dissertation attempts to understand processes of racialization of “blackness.” My objective is to examine how racialization works to create black identities and to challenge the assumptions that black people do not actively participate in the discourses and practices of racial identity formation. I argue that Cape Verdean youth identities are constructed out of a process of negotiation and contestation, but the negotiation and contestation is stunted by the racial logic of the U.S.; a logic that configures blacks one- dimensionally. In doing so, I examine how North American ascriptions of blackness and forms of black popular culture inform processes of identity formation and negotiation among Cape Verdean youth.

Rosa, 2018 Cape Verdean Counter Cultural Hip-Hop(s) & the Mobilization of the Culture of Radical Memory Public Pedagogy for Liberation or Continued Colonial Enslavement Dr. Ricardo D. Rosa1 University of Massachusetts – Dartmouth Abstract The paper traces the possibilities and limitations of transnational Cape Verdean Hip-Hop’s mobilization of the culture of radical memory for the disruption of racialized transnational capitalism and neocolonialism. One of the most common reference points, both in the symbolic formations of popular culture and emerging scholarly texts2 is the focus on CV Hip-Hop’s embrace of the life and work of Amilcar Cabral. Undoubtedly, Cape Verdean Hip-Hop Culture(s) & Cape Verdean youth counter-culture(s), more broadly, continues to serve as the most vital space for the (re)mobilization and (re)invigoration of Cabral’s thought, yet, much more is unfolding in these spaces.

Among the Lusophone texts that are available in translation, those from Cape Verde are few and far between. This lack can be attributed to multiple factors. First, creative publications from Cape Verde do not have wide circulation. Many Cape Verdean works are published in the islands and do not have a large international market, even among other Portuguese-speaking countries.
