Both editions were produced under the stresses and strains of COVID 19: most especially the aspects of its management dealing with lockdowns and restrictions of movement. Despite the pandemic and its challenging social environments, several papers were received by the Journal from scholars across the continent. The intention of these scholars rhyme with ours and it is that terrorism should be fought and defeated in Africa as vigorously being done to the pandemic. This commitment is compelled by the fact that the marauding terrorist organizations in Africa are equally not resting on their oars. They have continued to take human lives and cause human displacements across the African continent. They do not seem to have any respect for COVID 19 as they pandemic has not witnessed any significant halt in their deadly attacks. The countries most affected by their attacks during the pandemic include the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Somalia, Mozambique, Nigeria, Mali, Kenya, Burkina Faso, Niger, and Chad. They attack critical state infrastructures, state officials, humanitarian workers, children and women. In Nigeria most especially, Boko Haram and ISWAP have conti- nued to wreak havoc. Those interested in having more detailed reports about these at- tacks should read the past editions of the monthly Africa Terrorism Bulletin published by the African Centre for the Studies and Research on Terrorism (ACSRT). The papers in the present edition of the African Journal on Terrorism express concerns about the causes, nature and management of these cases of violent extremism. More papers were submitted for consideration by us but only few of them could be accep- ted for inclusion in the volume due to the painstaking recommendation of our edito- rial board members, diligent reviewers and committed staff members of the ACSRT. Contributors whose papers are not included in this volume have been advised on how to improve the works for inclusion in future editions. Our appreciation goes to all these critical stakeholders. With their support it is possible to keep the African continent safe of the evil machinations of terrorists. We have nine papers in this edition. The first is by Henrique Britto de Melo. It encourages the use of interdisciplinary approach for understanding terrorism. The se- cond paper is jointly produced by Babayo Sule ad Sani Yakubu Gombe on the sources of finance, weapons and other logistics for Boko Haram. Nigeria is also bedeviled by incessant bloody clashes between herdsmen and farmers, most especially in the central part of the country. The third paper in this edition of our Journal discusses the role of climate and environmental changes in these clashes. The main suggestion of the paper is that with better management of climate change there are higher chances of the cla- shes reducing. The paper is jointly written by

  • Hens Lay, People Lie: a Novel and an Exegesis
    HENS LAY, PEOPLE LIE A Novel and an Exegesis Beyond Epistolarity: The Warp, the Weft and the Loom Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Glenice Joy Whitting Swinburne University of Technology Faculty of Higher Education, Lilydale 2012 Abstract This thesis is comprised of two components: 'Hens Lay, People Lie', a novel, and an exegesis, Beyond Epistolarity the Warp, the Weft and the Loom. Together they propose that 'creative epistolarity', namely imaginative writing with factual material, including personal letters, emails and journals, provides women with a safe space where knowledge can be intuited, articulated or performed. In this space, women find their own creative voice, write their stories and in turn, understand themselves. 'Hens Lay, People Lie' draws heavily on the epistolary genre but aims to move beyond that genre by using an auto/biographical and creative epistolary style better suited to reveal emotion and character. The novel illustrates that creative epistolarity intersects with feminism and postmodernism and is uniquely placed to empower women to write their stories. The exegesis discusses theories, methodologies, fictional techniques and creative decisions made during the writing of the novel. Key writerly choices are examined: the choice of an epistolary novel and the importance of creative epistolarity as a way of knowing the self as well as production of knowledge. The research process is practice-led research informed by personal correspondence and personal history in the autoethnographic mode. The exegesis presents a reflective examination of existing works in the genre of epistolary fiction and calls on the practices of exponents of the epistolary form such as Elizabeth Jolley, Nancy Turner and Lionel Shriver.

  • Menagerie to Me / My Neighbor Be”: Exotic Animals and American Conscience, 1840-1900
    “MENAGERIE TO ME / MY NEIGHBOR BE”: EXOTIC ANIMALS AND AMERICAN CONSCIENCE, 1840-1900 Leslie Jane McAbee A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Eliza Richards Timothy Marr Matthew Taylor Ruth Salvaggio Jane Thrailkill © 2018 Leslie Jane McAbee ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Leslie McAbee: “Menagerie to me / My Neighbor be”: Exotic Animals and American Conscience, 1840-1900 (Under the direction of Eliza Richards) Throughout the nineteenth century, large numbers of living “exotic” animals—elephants, lions, and tigers—circulated throughout the U.S. in traveling menageries, circuses, and later zoos as staples of popular entertainment and natural history education. In “Menagerie to me / My Neighbor be,” I study literary representations of these displaced and sensationalized animals, offering a new contribution to Americanist animal studies in literary scholarship, which has largely attended to the cultural impact of domesticated and native creatures. The field has not yet adequately addressed the influence that representations of foreign animals had on socio-cultural discourses, such as domesticity, social reform, and white supremacy. I examine how writers enlist exoticized animals to variously advance and disrupt the human-centered foundations of hierarchical thinking that underpinned nineteenth-century tenets of civilization, particularly the belief that Western culture acts as a progressive force in a comparatively barbaric world. Both well studied and lesser-known authors, however, find “exotic” animal figures to be wily for two seemingly contradictory reasons.

  • The Nexus Between the Khawārij Theological Misconception of Īmān (Faith) and Boko Haram Insurgency in Nigeria
    Journal of Usuluddin 48 (1) 2020: 113-145 The Nexus between the Khawārij Theological Misconception of Īmān (Faith) and Boko Haram Insurgency in Nigeria Rasheed Abdulganiy Department of Religious Studies, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, Gombe State University, Nigeria. [email protected] Rabiu Aliyu Alhaji Department of Religious Studies, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, Gombe State University, Nigeria. [email protected] DOI: https://doi.org/10.22452/usuluddin.vol48no1.6 Abstract In Islam, Īmān (faith) is the bedrock and central-point-determinant of the yardstick to evaluate the extent to which a person has complied with teachings and precepts of Islam. The relationship between Īmān and ‘amal has been scholastically debated since the demise of the Prophet by the divergent Muslim theological groups (firāq). Since the first Islamic century, the debate has led to divisions among the Muslim Ummah giving birth to deviating sects such as the Khawārij, Mu‘tazilah, Murji’ah and the Shī‘ah with conflicting theological and ideological standpoints. Observably, the sects still exist across the Muslim world either in name or form at times with violent tendencies, causing havoc and challenging the inherent peaceful nature of Islam. This paper examined the theological viewpoint of the Khawārij and its impact on the Boko Haram insurgent group hatched in Nigeria but later spread to other neighbouring countries. Historical and comparative research methods have been adopted while using content analysis approach on the data collated. The paper discovered that, comparatively, the insurrectionary Boko Haram sect is one of the neo-khariji affiliates of the 21st century due to their gross abuse of the concept of Jihad and misapplication of takfīr loosely on any Muslim other than them.

Natural Resources and Conflict in Africa is a treasure of scholarship and insight, with great depth and thoroughness, and it will put us in Abiodun Alao’s debt for quite some NATURAL RESOURCES time to come.” —Amos Sawyer, Co-director, Workshop in Political Theory and Policy Analysis, Indiana University AND CONFLICT “As extensive in information as it is rich in analysis, Natural Resources and Conflict in Africa IN AFRICA should help this generation of scholars appreciate the enormity and complexity of Africa’s conflicts and provide the next generation with a methodology that breaks down disciplinary boundaries.” —Akanmu G.
