    Abstract: "African enslaved and freed women used their fashion and style of dress as a symbol of resistance to slavery and accommodation to white culture in pre- and post-emancipation society. African cultural features - folklore, music, language, religion and dress - were retained and nurtured in Jamaica because they guaranteed the survival of Africans and their descendants against European attempts at cultural annihilation. Steeve Buckridge illuminates the complexities of accommodation and resistance, showing that these complex responses are not opposites but are in fact melded into each other, as he reveals the dynamics of race, class and gender in Jamaican society and the role of women in British West Indian history

    Abstract: Everywhere in the world there is a close connection between the clothes we wear and our political expression. To date, few scholars have explored what clothing means in 20th-century Africa and the diaspora. In Fashioning Africa, an international group of anthropologists, historians, and art historians bring rich and diverse perspectives to this fascinating topic. From clothing as an expression of freedom in early colonial Zanzibar to Somali women's headcovering in inner-city Minneapolis, these essays expl

    Abstract: Africa, Revised Edition brings to life the rich and varied history and culture of the African continent. Through text, illustrations and photos, maps and charts, the reader gains an understanding of the ancient kingdoms of Africa as well as the place the continent holds in the modern world. Although most of Africa has been known to the rest of the world for little more than 200 years, it has a rich and varied history extending back many centuries before the arrival of Europeans. Africa was a cradle of civilization, the birthplace of the first human beings, and the home of the world's first agriculturists. The atlas is divided into two sections: Part One examines the story of the continent prior to written records through the ancient Greek and Roman periods to the emergence of present-day African cultures and societies. This rich history is brought to life with vivid illustrations, and supporting maps identify specific themes or topics in the main text. Part Two looks at the countries and peoples of modern Africa. Maps provide details of towns, cities, rivers, country borders, and much more. Specialized sections include information on the African slave trade; the spread of Islam in Africa; religions, peoples, and languages of Africa; education and literacy; African art; and music and dance

    Abstract: Eighteenth-century antislavery writers attacked the slave trade as "barbaric traffic"--a practice that would corrupt the mien and manners of Anglo-American culture to its core. Less concerned with slavery than with the slave trade in and of itself, these writings expressed a moral uncertainty about the nature of commercial capitalism. This is the argument Philip Gould advances in Barbaric Traffic. A major work of cultural criticism, the book constitutes a rethinking of the fundamental agenda of antislavery writing from pre-revolutionary America to the end of the British and American slave trades in 1808. Studying the rhetoric of various antislavery genres--from pamphlets, poetry, and novels to slave narratives and the literature of disease--Gould exposes the close relation between antislavery writings and commercial capitalism. By distinguishing between good commerce, or the importing of commodities that refined manners, and bad commerce, like the slave trade, the literature offered both a critique and an outline of acceptable forms of commercial capitalism. A challenge to the premise that objections to the slave trade were rooted in modern laissez-faire capitalism, Gould's work revises--and expands--our understanding of antislavery literature as a form of cultural criticism in its own right. Table of Contents: Introduction 1. The Commercial Jeremiad 2. The Poetics of Antislavery 3. American Slaves in North Africa 4. Liberty, Slavery, and Black Atlantic Autobiography 5. Yellow Fever and the Black Market Epilogue Notes Index This is a very important book which convincingly rethinks the fundamental agenda of Anglo-American anti-slavery literature from 1775 to 1808 (the end of the British slave trade). This is no small feat. Anti-slavery texts, Gould argues, offered less a critique of slavery than a critique of the slave trade. By distinguishing between good commerce (the importing of commodities that refined the manners) and bad commerce (the importation of slaves), these texts both critiqued commercial capitalism and outlined its acceptable and necessary forms. Thus anti-slavery texts endlessly deferred the issue of abolition in order to serve as a site of moral uncertainty about whether commercial capitalism would debase or civilize modern society. Sin is less feared than the depravity of manners which could corrupt Anglo-American culture at its core. Because virtuous and vicious commerce turned on the nature and regulation of passions, much was at stake. Closely attending to a vast number of transatlantic texts, Gould defines and demonstrates a "commercial aesthetic" that inflects the language of race and sentiments with issues of economic and social change. Gould's next move is to argue with reference to what he calls "the commercial jeremiad" that the very ideological discourse of civilization and savagery is rooted in trade. The concept of race is largely produced by this oppositional discourse rather than founded on its prior existence.--Jay Fliegelman, author of Prodigals and Pilgrims and Declaring IndependenceThis is a very important book with compelling and new insights throughout. It is the first book to examine such a wide range of both literary and historical sources on 18th century Anglo-American antislavery, and it does so with superb textual readings.--John Stauffer, author of The Black Hearts of Men and John Brown and the Coming of the Civil WarExtensively researched and carefully argued, Barbaric Traffic demonstrates an admirably sure-footed, clearsighted awareness of how transatlantic Enlightenment discourses of aesthetics, commerce, liberty, race, religion, and sentiment pursue distinct logics of their own yet cannot be pried apart.--Lawrence Buell, author of Emerson and Writing for an Endangered WorldBarbaric Traffic: Commerce and Antislavery in the 18th Century Atlantic World appears as a welcome addition to debates about slavery, sentimentality, and culture in American studies. Its readings are meticulous, historically grounded, and theoretically informed. The writing is clear and persuasive. Gould has an original and sometimes really stunning sense of the relation between ethics and manners in eighteenth century interpretations of capitalism and slavery exposed so trenchantly by earlier critics like Eric Williams. In particular, he is very good at deciphering what he calls "the ideological movement from theology to ethics" that appears through debates about slavery and commerce in the period. Gould presents excellent interpretations of the Christian sentiments of Phillis Wheatley, of the under-interpreted political context of Slaves of Algiers, of the expose of the slave ship by the Philadelphian Mathew Carey, and of the racialized ambivalence attached to the yellow fever panic of 1793 in Philadelphia. Few critics writing today show the range of concerns and depth of research that appears in Gould's work, which reminds me of the historical depth and clarity of David Brion Davis, and also of the commitment to paradigm shifts of Thomas Haskell. In short, Philip Gould is one of the most thoughtful and engaged critics working in American literature and culture today.--Shirley Samuels, author of Romances of the Republic...

    Abstract: En 1998, un filon d'or a été découvert dans un village du sud-ouest du Burkina Faso. Plusieurs milliers de personnes ont afflué vers le village à la recherche d'argent rapide. Une nouvelle colonie est née: "Sanmatenga" - "Goldland". L'histoire de la découverte, de l'extraction de l'or et du mode de vie des chercheurs d'or est racontée du point de vue des villageois et des chercheurs d'or.
    Abstract: In 1998, the discovery of a gold mine in the village of V3 Dimouon in the province of Loba, Burkina Faso, initiated a veritable "gold rush". In the village, where Mossi and Dagara farmers co-reside, the arrival of thousands of gold-diggers led to the creation of a new settlement named "Sanmatenga", which in Mooré means "land of gold". The village people as well as the representative of the gold-diggers recount the discovery of the gold vein. The film follows the different steps of exploiting the gold and shows everyday life in Sanmatenga.

    Abstract: Als in den 1970er Jahren der Seespiegel des Tschadsees sank, wurde am nigerianischen Ufer ein breiter Streifen fruchtbaren Landes vom Wasser freigegeben. Auf dem ehemaligen Seeboden entstanden zahlreiche Dörfer. Siedler unterschiedlicher Herkunft ließen sich hier nieder. In der trockenen Sahelzone verspricht das Wasser des Tschadsees Fischern, Bauern und Händlern ein ganzjähriges Einkommen. Während manche noch heute vom schnellen Geld träumen, haben sich andere am Tschadsee eine sichere Existenz aufgebaut. Der Film zeigt das Alltagsleben in zwei Tschadseedörfern. In Zentrum stehen vier Unternehmer - zwei Frauen und zwei Männer, die auf je unterschiedliche Weise erfolgreich wirtschaften.
    Abstract: When the level of Lake Chad sank during the 1970s, a wide strip of fertile land was exposed on the Nigerian shore. A considerable number of villages sprang up on the banks of the former lake and peoples of various origins settled there. In the dry Sahel zone the waters of Lake Chad offer fishermen, farmers and tradesmen the prospect of a good income the whole year round. While some still only dream of making easy money, others have laid the foundations of a secure livelihood. The film shows daily life in two villages on the shores of Lake Chad, focussing on four entrepreneurs - two women and two men - each one successfully conducting business in his or her own way.

    Abstract: The film focuses on peace-making efforts by seven different ethnic groups in Southern Ethiopia to end years of war between each other. Delegations of elders come together to jointly curse war, bless peace and never to fight with one another again. Curses are uttered as spears are blunted with stones and then carried to a termite mound to be broken and left there for the ants to devour. After the instruments of war are destroyed, tools of peace are given to all participants. Holding their tools of peace, the elders chant in union, calling forth the peace they desire.

    Abstract: Duka, verheiratet und Mutter von 5 Kindern, lebt in Hamar in Süd-Äthiopien. Seit ihr Ehemann eine junge und hübsche zweite Ehefrau geheiratet hat, ist Duka verunsichert. Zwar ist es in Hamar erlaubt, mehr als eine Ehefrau zu haben, aber nur selten heiraten Männer tatsächlich mehr als eine Frau. Duka fragt sich, ob ihr Mann sie zu alt findet oder er von ihrer chronischen Malaria abgestoßen ist. Mit der neuen Frau kann Duka wenig anfangen: sie ist still und drückt selten ihre Gefühle aus, außer wenn sie in Wut gerät. Und zu alledem kommt hinzu, daß Dukas Schwiegermutter Ärger macht. Auf intime Weise schildert der Film das Familiendrama um Duka, das in der Geburt des ersten Kindes der zweiten Frau und in einem Streit seine Höhepunkte hat, bei dem neun Monate später Dukas Schwiegermutter mit ihrem Sohn in Konflikt gerät, was schließlich zum Bau eines zweiten Hauses führt. Duka, ihr Mann, ihre Schwiegermutter und die Zweitfrau äußern ihre Meinungen vor der Kamera im Verlauf der Ereignisse, die schließlich zu einem guten Ende führen.
    Abstract: Duka, a married woman and mother of five young children, lives in Hamar, Southern Ethiopia. Ever since her husband married a beautiful and young second wife, Duka has been in a state of emotional turmoil. Among the Hamar, men are allowed to marry more than one wife, but only a few men ever do so. Duka wonders why her husband married again; did he find her too old, or was he repelled by her chronic malaria? Also, she doesn't know what to make of the new wife who is silent and never expresses her feelings except in rage? And on top of this, her mother-in-law keeps making trouble. Personal and intimate, the film follows the drama of this family in crisis, the high points of which are the birth of the new wife's first child, and nine months later, a heated dispute between the mother-in-law and her son, which leads to the building of a new house. Duka, her husband, her mother-in-law and the second wife voice their different points of view as events proceed and the crisis finally gets resolved.

    Abstract: Der Film porträtiert den norwegischen Ethnologen Fredrik Barth, der an den Universitäten Bergen und Oslo gelehrt hat. Seine Feldforschungen im Sudan, Iran, Oman, Pakistan, Neuguinea, Bali und Bhutan werden thematisiert.
    Abstract: The film, being part of the continued effort of IWF to contribute video productions to the history of anthropology like the preceding film on Sir Raymond Firth, is a portrait of the Norwegian anthropologist Fredrik Barth, one of the most important contemporary representatives of his discipline whose reputation both as a fieldworker and a theoretician has been renowned for more than four decades. Barth carried out fieldwork in the Sudan, in Iran, Oman, Pakistan, New Guinea, Bali and Bhutan. In the film, he talks, at times together with his wife Unni Wikan, to Peter Loizos and also to Lone Abenth-Sperschneider on his personal life and academic career, the importance of his fieldwork for his theoretical findings, the development of Norwegian anthropology, his cooperation with Unni Wikan and many other topics of interest for anthropologists. Impressions from teaching students in Bergen and lecturing at the Museum of Ethnography in Oslo, as well as glimpses of his personal environment in Oslo round off the film to a vivid portrait of a remarkable anthropologist.
