    Rebordering Africa, but not for Africans: Transfrontier Conservancy Areas, Tourism, and the Land David B. Coplan University of the Witwatersrand Abstract In countries where imperialism took the form of settler colonialism, one justification commonly advanced by the colonists for appropriating the land of indigenous people was that they were not making efficient use of it or maximizing its economic potential. Even after the first waves of massive dispossession had occurred, 'modernizing' legal measures to transform communal to individual title were often manipulated to deprive indigenous communities of most of what was left of their land. In the current century, transfrontier parks and conservation areas, heralded as vectors of economic development, employment, and cross-border reconciliation and integration, revive a 'progressive', 'eco-tourism and conservation' oriented version of the old 'efficient use' argument to appropriate land and its resources along border areas. The consequences of these internationally popular projects often create conflict, alienation, and resistance amidst and between local populations on both sides of the borders enclosed within such conservancies. The Transnational Governmentality of Landscape Planning and the “Bondage” of the Baka people in South‐East Cameroon Edith Neubauer Department of Social and Cultural Anthropology University of Vienna Abstract The Western Congo Basin Moist Forest Ecoregion constitutes a large part of the tropical wilderness of the Central African Region, the world’s second largest expanse of rainforest. As well as the globally important biodiversity of the Ecoregion faces severe threats from large‐scale commercial hunting, logging and mining, so does the indigenous population of the concerned region. While the protection of the biodiversity is of great international concern, the safeguard of indigenous rights still emerges as a stepchild in international conservation practices.

  • 1 Andreja Eržen (Ljubljana Graduate School of Humanities, Slovenia
    Andreja Eržen (Ljubljana Graduate School of Humanities, Slovenia) AFFIRMATION OF THE SLOVENIAN LANGUAGE Slovenian grammars and dictionaries from 16 th to 19 th century 1. Introduction One of the main questions, which appear very often in the Slovenian linguistics, is the problem of the construction of the national language and its link with the national consciousness. Must or should this national language be identical to the language of the people? And who this “people” really are: peasants in the village, bourgeoisie in the towns, the clergy or the few intellectuals? The period between 16 th and 19 th century was the most vivant and important for the development of the dialects, spoken on Slovene territories. Until the middle of the 19 th century Slovene philologists succeeded to create the basis for the literary language, based on the central Slovenian dialect. During the history of the language and its development, three questions appeared to be most present: − The relation between Slovenian language/its dialects and other Slavic languages, − The relation of the peripheral literary dialects to the central standard, − The role of the sixteenth-century norm for the modern language. During the centuries grammars and dictionaries played an important role in the development of the languages. The 16 th century presents a turning point in the history of a language; the protestant writers began to write in their native language. Their main aim was to make the ecclesiastical rituals comprehensible to the people. It was also the time of the first grammars, describing vernaculars, although mostly in Latin. The Protestantism gave three main pillars, on which the national language was later on constructed: first grammar (Adam Bohori č, Arcticae Horulae , 1584), first dictionary (Hieronimus Megiser, Dictionairium quatuor linguarum, videlicet germanicae, latinae, illyricae, 1592) and first translation of the Bible (Jurij Dalmatin, Biblia, tv ie, vse svetv pismv, stariga inu noviga testamenta, slovenski, tolmazhena, 1584).

    Slovenski jezik Slovene Linguistic Studies 6 2007 POSEBNI ODTIS – OFFPRINT Ljubljana – Lawrence D.Slovenski F. Reindl, jezik Slovene – Slovene Ultra-Formal Linguistic Studies Address: 6 (2007): Borrowing, 151–168 Innovation, and Analysis 151 Donald F. Reindl Filozofska fakulteta, Ljubljana Slovene Ultra-Formal Address: Borrowing, Innovation, and Analysis Slovenščina ima ogovorni sistem, ki se od osnovnega dvojnega ogovornega sistema mnogih ev- ropskih jezikov loči v tem, da oblikovno razlikuje do štirih ravni formalnosti (neformalno/tikanje, polformalno/napol vikanje, formalno/vikanje in ultraformalno/onikanje). Do nedavnega je bilo onikanje v redni uporabi tako v neposrednem kot v posrednem ogovoru (oz. govorjenjem o odsot- ni osebi). Čeprav bi lahko slovnične značilnosti onikanja izvirale iz stika z nemščino, se zdi, da predstavlja slovenska uporaba onikanja v posrednem ogovoru samostojen izum. Avtor analizira Linhartovo veseloigro Županova Micka z namenom, da razišče in prikaže vzajemno delovanje teh ogovornih oblik. Podobne raziskave onikanja v drugih jezikih (češčina, slovaščina) bi lahko bolje osvetlile pojav, ki je prisoten v več slovanskih jezikih. Slovene has a system of address that differs from the basic binary address system of many Europe- an languages by grammatically distinguishing up to four levels of formality (informal, semiformal, formal, and ultra-formal). Until recently, ultra-formal address was regularly used in direct as well as indirect address (i.e., reference to absent persons). Although the grammatical characteristics of Slovene ultra-formal address (3rd plural) appear to have been the result of contact with German, the Slovene application of this form to indirect address appears to have been an independent innova- tion. Anton Tomaž Linhart’s play Županova Micka is analyzed in order to explore and illustrate the interaction of these various address forms.
