  • Communities of Small Mammals in Kafue National Park and Their Response to Fire, Vegetation and Land Use
    Communities of small mammals in Kafue National Park and their response to fire, vegetation and land use DISSERTATION submitted for the degree of Doctor of Science (Dr. rer. nat.) Department of Animal Ecology and Conservation University of Hamburg Photo taken by: Neeta Simunji submitted by Ngawo Namukonde Hamburg, 2017 i Revised version Dissertation reviewers: Prof. Dr. Jörg U Ganzhorn Prof. Dr. Japhet K Mbata Date of oral defense: 24th November, 2017 ii Summary Small mammals assume multiple and cardinal roles in ecosystem functionality. They are known to influence the composition and structure of plant communities through their herbivorous and seed predation activities, as agents of soil aeration through their burrowing activities, pest controllers as the consume large amounts of insects and plant material, and as food for a variety of prey. Yet, the understanding of small mammal ecology is overshadowed by studies of large mammals as small mammals have very little tourism appeal and are often viewed as vermin benefiting from human disturbances. Even so, many small mammals are known to be highly sensitive to anthropogenic factors. This lack of information on small mammals also applies to the Kafue National Park (KNP), Zambia, including the Busanga Flood Plain as one of KNP’s critical habitats and a wetland of international importance (RAMSAR site number 1659). Not much is known about small mammals in the KNP, much less the influence of anthropogenic and non-antropogenic factors on their communities. Given that KNP is a protected area where the human foot print is minimized, anthropogenic factors that act upon the communities of small mammals include bush fires, that occur repeatedly (annually) on wildlands.

Infrastructure has become a hot topic in contemporary anthropology. By some accounts, this is a remarkable turnaround. According to Marco Di Nunzio (2018, p. 1), infrastructure was once largely ignored because anthropologists viewed the subject as “unexciting and irrelevant..., boring.” He claims that this supposed lack of interest was not snobbism but an outcome of “modernist representations” portraying infrastructure as “inert, nearly invisible” (p. 1).

  • Scholars and Controversy: a Note on Elizabeth Colson's Work Against Sex Discrimination in Academia
    SCHOLARS AND CONTROVERSY: A NOTE ON ELIZABETH COLSON'S WORK AGAINST SEX DISCRIMINATION IN ACADEMIA June Starr INTRODUCTION There is widespread consensus that the standards set by Elizabeth Colson's books on two different groups, the Makah Indians of North America (1953) and the Plateau Tonga of the Gwembe Valley (1958, 1960, 1962, 1971), place her among the most distinguished anthropolo- gists. Her research and writing span three continents (North America, Africa, and Australia). She has written persuasively on such topics as marriage, divorce, kinship, quantitative methods, the long-term study of a single community, politics, law, development, disruption, and change. Some of her writing bridges the often separate fields of theoretical and applied anthropology. Unheralded in anthropological circles is another aspect of Elizabeth Colson's work-her championship of the rights of academic women. In 1969, she co-chaired an Academic Senate subcommittee which a year later produced a report on the status of women on the Berkeley campus of the University of California. Thus, a tribute to Elizabeth Colson as researcher, scho- lar, and teacher might well include mention of her work on behalf of academic women. In 1970, sex discrimination on university campuses was a hidden and almost taboo topic. How- ever, the scholarly and courageous report by Colson, Scott, Blumer, Ervin-Tripp, and Newman did much to publicize it. In an era when few distinguished academics were willing to sacrifice time and energy for the public good, Elizabeth Colson gave a year of her time to clarify the record concerning women academics at Berkeley. The report that she and her colleagues com- piled set standards for similar data collection and reporting on university campuses across North America in the 1970s.

  • Language Shift Among the Tonga of Mkoka? Assessing Ethnolinguistic Vitality in Gokwe South
    Language Shift among Tonga of Mkoka? Assessing Ethnolinguistic Vitality in Gokwe South Shumirai Nyota Curriculum Studies Department, Great Zimbabwe University E-mail- [email protected] Abstract This paper gives a first evaluation of the ethnolinguistic vitality of the Tonga community of Mkoka in Gokwe South with focus on the Tonga language. In comparison to the other Tonga communities of Zimbabwe who like them were displaced from the Zambezi valley to make way for the construction of the Kariba dam in the 1950s, the Tonga in Gokwe South have received little attention from researchers if any. This research focuses on the way the Tonga of Mkoka in Gokwe South use their mother-tongue, Tonga (L1), and the second language, Shona, in the primary home/family domain and the secondary domains of language use. Results show that Tonga vitality is based on social status, demographic and informal support variables while its economic, socio-historical and formal support vitality was very low. The Tonga mainly use their (L1) in the family/home domain with interlocutors who are family, friends and neighbours for everyday language use and as they undertake social activities in their environments while for the secondary language use domains, they shift to Shona, the economically more powerful language in the area. Shona was, however, found to be creeping into some Tonga homes but reasons for this encroachment could not be concluded in this paper. Background to the Study The Tonga language of Zimbabwe being examined here falls under what Guthrie (1948/67/71) classifies as M64. It is under the Lenje-Tonga (M60) group.

  • Forced Migration and the Anthropological Response
    Journal of Refugee Studies Vol. 16, No. 1 2003 Forced Migration and the Anthropological Response ELIZABETH COLSON Department of Anthropology, University of California at Berkeley The study of refugees and other forced migrants is now a major area within anthropology, which has been able to draw on earlier sociological studies of immigrant communities and anthropological studies of labour migration and settlement in urban areas. Displacement is now seen as an endemic phenomenon that affects those uprooted, the communities that feel the impact of their arrival, governments, and the international agencies which increasingly play a major role in dealing with displacement. Uprooting and movement into new communities involve processes such as labelling, identity management, boundary creation and maintenance, management of reciprocity, manipulation of myth, and forms of social control. Uprooting also provokes loss of trust in governments and existing political leaders. It creates new diasporas with their own political interests. What happens after uprooting depends largely on whether people resettle on their own using their existing social and economic resources, are processed through agencies, or are kept in holding camps administered by outsiders. International and non-governmental charitable organizations are major actors, whose roles are being transformed through their dealings with the displaced while at the same time they have a major impact on the ability of governments to govern. Anthropologists have both studied and tried to do something about the situation through the creation of agencies that give a voice to the displaced, such as the Refugee Studies Centre at Oxford, Cultural Survival, and the International Work Group for Indigenous Affairs.

  • 1 Promotion of Intangible Heritage in The
    PROMOTION OF INTANGIBLE HERITAGE IN THE CONSERVATION OF NATURE AT THE LIVINGSTONE MUSEUM, ZAMBIA Terry Nyambe, Assistant keeper of Ichthyology, Livingstone Museum, Livingstone, Zambia. E-mail: [email protected] Biography Since 2003, Terry Nyambe has been the Assistant Keeper of Ichthyology in the Natural History Department of the Livingston Museum in Zambia. He studied ecology at the University of Zambia. Since his university graduation, he has obtained a diploma in information technology. In 2006 he completed a course in biodiversity and fish taxonomy at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences. In 2007, he took a course in museology in Osaka, Japan, co-hosted by Minpaku and Lake Biwa Museums. His work at the Livingston Museum involves research, exhibitions, curation, documentation, and publications.
