Dilara EMİROĞLU Akdeniz Havzası ve Afrika Medeniyetleri 123-125 TAKDİM / EDİTÖRDEN Değerli okurlarımız, Tüm dünyayı etkisi altına alan Covid-19 salgınına karşı aralıksız olarak mücadele verildiği olağanüstü günlerden geçmemize rağmen, Türkiye, Afrika, Orta Doğu ve Orta Asya’dan araştırmacıların Akdeniz Havzası ve Afrika kültürlerine ilişkin kıymetli çalışmaları ile katkı sağladıkları 2. sayımız ile huzurlarınızda olmanın memnuniyetini yaşıyoruz. Bu bağlamda, bu sayımızda Afrika ile Çin’in tarihî ve sosyokültürel ilişkilerini irdeleyen iki araştırma ma- kalesi ile birlikte, Afrika eğitim sisteminde kadim Afrika geleneksel ilminin yerini, Amman ve Samsun illeri doğum âdetlerinin karşılaştırmalı incelemesi ile yine halkbilimi alanında Kazak Türklerinde doğum âdet- lerinin incelenmesini, Transatlantik köle ticaretinde Gorée Adası’nın önemini, kara vebanın Batı ve Doğu toplumlarına etkisi ile Filistin edebiyatının önde gelen yazarlarından Gassân Kenefânî’nin öykülerinin edebî analizini konu alan sekiz araştırma makalesinin yanı sıra bir ülke tanıtımı ile iki kitap tanıtımı yer almaktadır. Öte yandan, geçen ay 22 Mayıs’ta hayata gözlerini yuman Batı Sahraltı sözlü geleneğinin dünya ça- pındaki temsilcisi, kora üstadı büyük sanatçı Mory Kanté’nin vefatı nedeniyle Afrika sözlü kültürü yasa büründü. Hiç kuşkusuz ki Kanté’nin vefatını en iyi tanımlayabilecek ifade; “Afrika’nın Bilge Adamı” Malili edebiyatçı ve etnolog Amadou Hampâté Bâ’nın (1900-1991) zengin Afrika atasözü envanterine kazandırdığı “Afri- ka'da yaşlı bir adam öldüğünde, bir kütüphane yanmış demektir.” ünlü özdeyişidir. Mory Kanté 29 Mart 1950’de Gine'nin güneyinde, Kissoudougou yakınlarındaki küçük bir köyde Gine’nin meşhur Kanté griyo1 ailesinin bir ferdi olarak doğdu. Babası Gineli Hacı Jele Fodé Kanté annesi ise Malili griyoların manevi lideri Jele Mory Kamissoko'nun kızı, Fatıma Kamissoko’dur. Şüphesiz ki annesi ve babasının yanı sıra, çocukluğunu ve gençlik yıllarını Bamako’da yanında geçirdiği, kendisi de Mali Müziği Ulusal Topluluğu’nun ünlü bir griyosu olan teyzesi Maman Ba Kamissoko’nun, Mory Kanté’nin Batı Sahraaltı Afrika ezgilerini dünya çapında bu denli sevdirmesinde emeği büyüktür. 1971'de profesyonel müzik hayatına kendisini tüm Batı Sahraltı’ya tanıtacak ünlü Bamoko Rail Band orkestrasında adım atar, bu yıllarda üstadı olduğu kora (arp çalgısına yakın tınısı olan 21 telli çalgı) eşliğinde şarkılarını seslendirir, 1976 yılına geldiğinde ise Nijerya’da “Altın Ses” ödülünü alır. 1978, Afrika’nın en gözde müzik merkezlerinden biri olan Fildişi Sahili’nin en kozmopolit şehri Abidjan’a yerleşir ve bir yandan üvey kardeşi Musa Diavara ile birlikte gözde lokallerde sahne alırken, diğer yan- dan da geleneksel Batı Sahraltı halk müziğini çok sesli Batı müziği ile harmanlar. Söz konusu eşsiz müzik harmanı, 1981’de Los Angeles’de kaydettiği Courougnégné albümünde kendini gösterir ve tüm Afrika kıtasında satış rekorları kırar. Mory Kanté’nin tüm dünyada tanınmasını sağlayacak Yéké Yéké şarkısı, 1987 yılına gelindiğinde tüm müzik sıralamalarında birinci sırada yer alacak ve yirminin üzerinde dile çevrilecektir. 2001’de Birleşmiş Milletler İyi Niyet Elçisi olarak atanan Mory Kanté’nin örnek gösterilen sanatçı kişiliği- nin yanı sıra, Afrika Kıtası’nda özellikle yoksulluk, ırkçılık ve eğitim sorunlarına ilişkin toplumsal sorum- luluk faaliyetlerinde hep ön sıralarda yer aldı. Öyle ki 1995’lerde anavatanı Gine’nin başkenti Konakri’de gençlere yönelik Afrika’nın en kapsamlı müzik

  • Egyptian Rule in the Sudan
    SOME SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC ASPECTS OF TURKO - EGYPTIAN RULE IN THE SUDAN GABRIEL R. WARBURG Between 1821 and 1885 most of the area constituting the present Su- dan came under Turko-Egyptian rule. The annexation of the Sudan to Egypt was undertaken in 1820-1 by Muhammad `Ali, the Ottoman Vali of Egypt, and was completed under his grandson, the Khedive Ismacil, who extended this rule to the Great Lakes in the south and to Bahr al- Ghazal and Darfur in the west. In the history of the Sudan, this period became known as the (first) Turkiyya. The term Turkiyya is not really ar- bitrary since Egypt was itself an Ottoman province, ruled by an Ottoman (Albanian) dynasty. Moreover, most of the high officials and army officers serving in the Sudan were of Ottoman rather than Egyptian origin. Last- ly, though Arabic made considerable headway during the second half of the century in daily administrative usage, the senior officers and off~ cials continued to communicate in Turkish, since their superior- the Khedive - was a Turk and Turkish was the language of the ruling elite. Hence, when the Mahdist revolt errupted in June 1881, its main enemy were the Turks who had oppressed the Sudanese and had - according to the Mahdi - corrupted Islam. a. European Historical and other Writings on N~ neteenth-Century Sudan Until the second half of the twentieth century western views both on Turkish rule in the Sudan as well as on the Mahdiyya, were largely based on the writings of European trades, explorers and soldiers of for- tune.

    Georgetown University-SFS-Q Research Seminar Anthropology of War and Peace in Darfur ANTH 305-1 August 21-Nov.27, 2017 Fall 2017 Instructor Rogaia Mustafa Abusharaf Office Number 0D-55 Office Hours Monday & Wednesday: By Appointment 1 Doyle Seminar This course is a Doyle Seminar, part of the Doyle Engaging Difference Program, a new campus- wide curricular initiative, and gives faculty the opportunity to enhance the student research component of upper-level seminars that address questions of national, social, cultural, religious, moral, and other forms of difference. The Doyle seminars are intended to deepen student learning about diversity and difference through enhanced research opportunities, interaction with thought leaders, and dialogue with the Georgetown community and beyond. Description Generations of travelers, historians, ethnographers, colonial administrators, humanitarian workers, celebrities, and NGO personnel have produced an enormous amount of knowledge about the Darfur. This course draws upon illustrative examples from the earliest forms of travel writing to the most recent forms of digital activism. Although recent events around the world have managed to divert attention from Darfur, its significance in international politics continued since the arrest warrant was issued for Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir in accordance with United Nations Security Council Resolution 1593, concerning genocide and war crimes in Darfur. The United Nations Security Council referred the case to Luis Moreno-Ocampo, former prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, after the investigation of Sudan's own special prosecutor had not led to war prosecutions, suggesting the failure of institutions of justice within the country. Events of this magnitude are to be expected given the pervasive political violence that engulfed the country following its independence from British rule in January 1956.

  • Charity and Commercial Success As Vectors of Asymmetry and Inequality: the Unconceptualised Elements of Development in Islamist Sudan During the First Republic
    chapter �� Charity and Commercial Success as Vectors of Asymmetry and Inequality: The Unconceptualised Elements of Development in Islamist Sudan during the First Republic Raphaëlle Chevrillon-Guibert Abstract The Sudanese Islamist experiment is far from having put an end to the conflict-ridden history of the country, despite the South achieving independence in July 2011. How- ever, a higher degree of regional integration outside the South was one of the stated aims of the Islamists when they came to power in 1989. This chapter will investigate the apparent paradox by exploring the experiments in development undertaken by Sudanese Islamists during their first republic (1989–2011) on the basis of the study of certain social practices they actively encouraged, namely evergetism and philanthro- py. It is based on an analysis of the charitable practices carried out by the main traders in the Sudanese capital’s principal market during the Islamist regime. The regional— more specifically Darfurian—origin of most of these main traders makes it possible to compare what these practices produce in each different territory. The chapter shows that this encouragement, which is not part of any specific plan thought up by the Is- lamists, leads to different forms of development that vary depending on the local and human contexts in which the actors live, and also the way they conceive their roles within in the circles to which they belong. It then highlights how these variations pro- duce extremely disparate and often conflict-ridden results, which ultimately pursue the asymmetric formation of the Sudanese state, prolonging a historical trajectory that has produced injustice and generated conflict (Figure 11.1).

A third stage, which will have to involve lawyers from Darfur, will be to extract from this body of material some general principles to act as guidelines for the redistribution of land in the province. Thus my purpose in preparing this second version of the Catalogue is far from purely academic; the issue of land is a vital, contentious and fundamental issue in the ongoing conflict in Darfur, as I have discovered working as a consultant to the UN Mission to the Sudan (UNMIS) and the African Union (AU) over the last year.

  • State History and Contemporary Conflict: Evidence from Sub-Saharan Africa
    State History and Contemporary Conflict: Evidence from Sub-Saharan Africa Emilio Depetris-Chauvin - Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile LSE-Stanford-Universidad de los Andes Conference on Long-Run Development in Latin America, London School of Economics and Political Science, 16-17 May 2018 STATE HISTORY AND CONTEMPORARY CONFLICT: EVIDENCE FROM SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA* Emilio Depetris-Chauvin† Abstract I examine empirically the role of historical political centralization on the likelihood of con- temporary civil conflict in Sub-Saharan Africa. I combine a wide variety of historical sources to construct an original measure of long-run exposure to statehood at the sub-national level. I then exploit variation in this new measure along with geo-referenced conflict data to document a robust negative relationship between long-run exposure to statehood and contemporary conflict. From a variety of identification strategies, I provide evidence suggesting that the relationship is causal. I argue that regions with long histories of statehood are better equipped with mechanisms to establish and preserve order. I provide two pieces of evidence consistent with this hypothesis. First, regions with relatively long historical exposure to statehood are less prone to experience conflict when hit by a negative economic shock. Second, exploiting contemporary individual-level survey data, I show that within-country long historical statehood experience is linked to people’s positive attitudes toward state institutions and traditional leaders.

  • The Crisis of the Sudanese Post-Colonial State and Conflict in Darfur
    The Crisis of the Sudanese Post-colonial State and Conflict in Darfur by Noah Bassil B.A (Hons) Dissertation in completion of requirements of PhD Degree for the School of Modern History, Politics and International Relations Macquarie University Submitted September 2009 Declaration I hereby declare that this thesis is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person, except where references in the text or footnotes state otherwise, nor material which to a substantial extent has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma of the university or other institute of higher learning, except where due acknowledgment has been made in the text. Noah Raffoul Bassil Sydney, Australia, 15 September 2009 i Acknowledgements The people who have made this thesis possible deserve more than the few brief words that I grant them here. Nonetheless, I will attempt to aknowledge those whose help, support and encouragement made this thesis possible. Associate Professor Geoffrey Hawker, Head of Politics and International Relations at Macquarie University was a source of much encouragement and support, especially during the most difficult periods of my candidature. Without his guidance and timely interventions, I doubt very much whether I would have had the confidence to finish this thesis. Geoffrey’s feedback and suggestions were invaluable and his support in other academic activities has ensured my student experience was well-rounded and fulfilling. I also would like to thank Professor Stephanie Lawson for providing important suggestions on how to improve the thesis by looking beyond the boundaries of the specific issues the thesis raises.
