  • RONALD DAUS: Die Erfindung Des Kolonialismus
    R E VIE W S 365 RONALD DAUS: Die Erfindung des Kolonialismus . Wuppertal: Hammer Ver- lag, 1983. 382 pp., DM 24.80 In the German context considerable attention has been paid over the past decade to problems of cross-cultural or inter-cultural understanding and communication. In methodological terms this has taken place within the frame- work of the hermeneutics of the alien, or the "Other". The phenomenological underpinning of this approach often results in a curious neglect of the nexus of knowledge and power in historical contexts and this differentiates such studies from the related concerns of students of what might broadly be called the "colonial discourse". Attention to the latter has, of course, been greatly influenced by Edward Said's path-breaking "Orientalism" (1978) and it seems that one can speak now of an interdisciplinary area of concern where critical anthropologists, historians, literary critics and textual analysts interact to study and develop critiques of the way in which other societies are repre- sented and the interests that guide such representations . Daus' book on the "Invention of Colonialism ” moves in this area of concern, as the title itself suggests (one thinks of Hobsbawm's formulation about the in- vention of tradition), and its significance lies to a considerable extent in the fact that the hermeneutical model is used for studying colonial history with emancipatory intent. Daus intertwines two parallel themes to develop his argument. He studies Portugal' s "career" as a colonial power as a kind of paradigm for demonstrating how mercantile interests which grew into power relationships generated, constructed, "invented" beliefs, techniques and structures which in turn dominated their inventors.

A princípio, buscamos realizar uma análise sobre a expansão da mensagem pentecostal em todo o Brasil e a sua chegada ao Estado de Roraima, enfatizando o pioneirismo da obra e analisando ainda a migração do seu precursor Cordulino Teixeira Bastos de Itapajé – Ceará – às terras roraimenses. Em seguida, detalharemos como ocorreu a fundação da Igreja Assembleia de Deus em Roraima e apontaremos as primeiras conversões ao pentecostalismo. Neste ponto, falaremos também sobre como aconteceu o processo de conversão para um indivíduo se tornar membro desta Igreja. Por fim, mostraremos a consolidação, o crescimento da obra pentecostal e os frutos deixados por cada líder. Palavras-chave: Igreja Assembleia de Deus. Pentecostalismo. Roraima.

    Ronald Daus: Manila. Eassy über die Karriere einer Weltstadt. [Babylon Metropolis Studies] Berlin: Ursula Opitz Verlag, 1987; 189 S., 17 Abb. Maynila, eine kleine Siedlung im Herrschaftsgebiet des Rajah Soliman auf der Insel Luzon, wurde während des ersten Kontaktes mit den spanischen Konquistadoren unter Miguel L6pez de Legazpi, es war das Jahr 1571, niedergebrannt, Soliman getötet. Die Spanier bauten darauf- hin genau an dieser Stelle ihr eigenes Manila mit der Absicht, es zur "Hauptstadt aller philippi- nischen Inseln" werden zu lassen. Das erste Bauwerk des neuen Manila wurde seine Umzäu- nung, eine zwei- und dreifach gestaffelte Palisade - die spanische Kolonialherrschaft hatte ihren Anfang genommen. Über 300 Jahre später folgten die US-Amerikaner und während des 2. Weltkrieges wüteten die Japaner in diesem Archipel der 7(X)() Inseln. Manila, so war der Plan der Spanier, sollte als Gelenkstelle zwischen Neuspanien und den noch zu erobernden Reichen und Märkten Chinas und Japans fungieren. Ein Plan, der scheiterte. Die Holländer waren mitt- lerweile geschicktere Ausbeuter, hatten schnellere Schiffe und bald das gesamte indonesische Archipel mit den begehrten Gewünen in ihrer Gewalt. Die Philippinen indes brachten ihren Kolonialherren eher Kosten denn Gewinne. Manila, mitunter auch als eine "Perle des Orients" tituliert, war nie eine sonderlich prachtvolle Perle. Die Geschichte Manilas ist untrennbar mit kolonialer Geschichte verbunden. Die Geschichte Manilas ist die Geschichte der Philippinen Ronald Daus erzählt diese Geschichte anregend mit einem Blick für große Linien und für kleine Pointen. Einen Zugang zu dieser Stadt entlang seiner vierhundertjährigen Geschichte anzubieten ist verdienstvoll, und er ist möglicherweise der einzig erfolgversprechende. Wer ins heutige Manila kommt, betritt ein Monstrum: 7.

  • Ronald Daus DIE FASZINATION AUSSEREUROPÄISCHER
    Ronald Daus DIE FASZINATION AUSSEREUROPÄISCHER GROSSSTÄDTE Hundert Jahre lang hielt sich in Europa die Überzeugung, daß sich aus­ schließlich in den größten Städten des eigenen Kontinents der moderne Gipfelpunkt der menschlichen Entwicklung manifestierte. Vom 13. bis zum 18. Jahrhundert hatten - in kurzbemessenen Augen­ blicken verblüffter Bewunderung - auch noch fremde Metropolen beachtet werden können: das "phantastisch durchorganisierte" Peking als Hauptstadt Chinas, die "überwältigende Schönheit" der Inselstadt Tenochtitlan, auf die die spanischen Konquistadoren von den Vulkanen Mexikos hinabgestarrt hatten, bevor sie sie zerstörten, und der "legendäre Reichtum" des afrikani­ schen Handelszentrums Timbuktu. Als jedoch gegen Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts in einer zweiten Phase des überseeischen Kolonialismus der Erdball gänzlich, durch viele Spielarten di­ rekter und indirekter Herrschaft, den Europäern untertan geworden war, ent­ fielen die Voraussetzungen, sich gleichmachen zu müssen mit anderen Völ­ kern. Fremde städtische Gebilde waren nicht mehr zu gebrauchen als ein An­ sporn zur weiteren Perfektionierung der Gesellschaft. Man hatte den Auf­ schwung vermeintlich aus eigener Kraft geschafft. Und so konzentrierte sich das Nachdenken über die höchste Stufe von Le­ bensqualität und Lebensfreude, das Bemühen um eine Definition der "Condi­ tio humana" im jetzt erreichten Schlußkapitel der Weltgeschichte zwangsläu­ fig auf die Hauptstädte der Sieger. Schönheit, Scharfsinn, jeglicher Erfindungsreichtum, alles fand nur hier statt. Der Zeitgeist

CHAN 11 At the Edge of Two Worlds: Rethinking the Portuguese Diaspora in British Hong Kong For centuries, the Portuguese have journeyed across borders. At the height of Por- tugal’s expansion in the fifteenth century, the Portuguese swept through foreign cultures and transformed foreign communities and peoples. Its gradual decline in the late sixteenth century left behind traces of Portugal and its culture as peoples of Portuguese descent experienced intermarriage and came to be assim- ilated by native locals, resulting in the birth of a Eurasian population.
