Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: EtnologÃa Cultura Desarrollo economico Historia africana Cultura africana PolÃtica africana Estudios de desarrollo Clasificación: 960 Resumen: Este libro considera las promesas y los desafÃos de la globalización para Ãfrica. ¿Por qué los Estados africanos han sido siempre incapaces de diversificar sus economÃas e ir más allá de la exportación de productos primarios, incluso cuando el Sudeste Asiático ha dado un tremendo salto hacia la manufactura? ¿Qué impedimentos institucionales están en juego en los estados africanos? ¿Qué reformas mitigarÃan los efectos negativos de la globalización y distribuirÃan sus beneficios de manera más equitativa? Los ensayos de este volumen, que abarcan temas crÃticos como el liderazgo polÃtico, los desafÃos de seguridad, el sector creativo y la vida comunitaria, sostienen que el punto de partida para un compromiso significativo de Ãfrica con el resto del mundo debe ser mirar hacia adentro, examinar las instituciones de Ãfrica y trabajar hacia reformas que promuevan la inclusión y la estabilidad.

Tipo de medio : Computadora Summary : This book considers the promises and challenges of globalization for Africa. Why have African states been perennially unable to diversify their economies and move beyond export of primary produce, even as Southeast Asia has made a tremendous leap into manufacturing? What institutional impediments are in play in African states? What reforms would mitigate the negative effects of globalization and distribute its benefits more equitably? Covering critical themes such as political leadership, security challenges, the creative sector, and community life, essays in this volume argue that the starting point for Africa's meaningful engagement with the rest of the world must be to look inward, examine Africa's institutions, and work towards reforms that promote inclusiveness and stability.

Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Historia mundial EtnologÃa Cultura literatura africana Historia africana Historia Mundial Historia Global y Transnacional Cultura africana PolÃtica africana Clasificación: 960 Resumen: Este libro explora la polÃtica de la creatividad artÃstica, examinando cómo los artistas negros en Ãfrica y la diáspora crean arte como un procedimiento de creación de uno mismo. Los ensayos cruzan continentes para descubrir el florecimiento de la cultura negra en contextos nacionales y globales y en la literatura, el cine, la performance, la música y las artes visuales. Los colaboradores sitúan las preocupaciones de los artistas negros y sus obras dentro de las conversaciones nacionales y transnacionales sobre el racismo contra los negros, la xenofobia, el etnocentrismo, la migración, el reasentamiento, la resistencia y los feminismos transnacionales. ¿Cumple el arte subalterno el potencial liberador que le han atribuido los crÃticos? ¿Qué otras posibilidades ofrece el arte polÃtico? Juntos, estos ensayos analizan la estética de la vida cotidiana para construir una tesis que refleje el deseo de los artistas y culturas negros de rehacerse a sà mismos y a su mundo.

From Saartjie to Queen Bey: Black Female Artists and the Global Cultural Industry. Tipo de medio : Computadora Summary : This book explores the politics of artistic creativity, examining how black artists in Africa and the diaspora create art as a procedure of self-making. Essays cross continents to uncover the efflorescence of black culture in national and global contexts and in literature, film, performance, music, and visual art. Contributors place the concerns of black artists and their works within national and transnational conversations on anti-black racism, xenophobia, ethnocentrism, migration, resettlement, resistance, and transnational feminisms. Does art by the subaltern fulfill the liberatory potential that critics have ascribed to it? What other possibilities does political art offer? Together, these essays sort through the aesthetics of daily life to build a thesis that reflects the desire of black artists and cultures to remake themselves and their world.

Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Imperialismo literatura africana Desarrollo economico Historia africana Imperialismo y colonialismo PolÃtica africana Estudios de desarrollo Clasificación: 960 Resumen: Este libro ofrece nuevas perspectivas sobre la historia de la explotación en Ãfrica al examinar el mal gobierno poscolonial como producto de la explotación colonial. La independencia polÃtica no ha producido instituciones inclusivas, crecimiento económico o estabilidad social para la mayorÃa de los africanos; simplemente ha transferido los beneficios de la explotación de la Europa colonial a una pequeña élite africana. Los colaboradores investigan las representaciones de la explotación colonial y poscolonial en la literatura y la retórica, abarcando obras de escritores africanos como Ngugi wa Thiong''o, Kwame Nkrumah y Bessie Head. Luego pasa a estudios de casos, trazando lÃneas entre la subyugación colonial y los desafÃos actuales a través de ensayos sobre el Zaire de Mobutu, la polÃtica nigeriana, el sistema fascista colonial italiano y más. En conjunto, estos ensayos analizan cómo los estados africanos pueden transformar sus instituciones y romper con los legados coloniales persistentes. Nota de contenido: 1. Introduction: Exploitation, Colonialism, and Postcolonial Misrule in Africa -- Section I. Encounters: Texts, Images, and Fiction -- 2. Rupturing Neocolonial Legacies in the African Novel: Ngugi wa Thiong'o's Matigari as a Paradigm -- 3. Decolonial Visions in Mid-Twentieth-Century African Rhetoric: Perspectives from Kwame Nkrumah's Consciencism -- 4. Images of Colonialism in the Text of Two African Female Poets -- 5.

A Colonizing Agricultural Company in Somalia: The Duke of Abruzzi's Società Agricola Italo-Somala in the Italian Colonial Fascist System -- 11. The Magical Hour of Midnight: The Annual Commemorations of Rhodesia's and Transkei's Independence Days -- 12. Colonial Ideologies and the Emergence of Two Spaces: The Nigerian Experience. Tipo de medio : Computadora Summary : This book offers new perspectives on the history of exploitation in Africa by examining postcolonial misrule as a product of colonial exploitation. Political independence has not produced inclusive institutions, economic growth, or social stability for most Africans—it has merely transferred the benefits of exploitation from colonial Europe to a tiny African elite. Contributors investigate representations of colonial and postcolonial exploitation in literature and rhetoric, covering works from African writers such as Ngugi wa Thiong'o, Kwame Nkrumah, and Bessie Head. It then moves to case studies, drawing lines between colonial subjugation and present-day challenges through essays on Mobutu's Zaire, Nigerian politics, the Italian colonial fascist system, and more. Together, these essays look towards how African states may transform their institutions and rupture lingering colonial legacies.

Esta colección de ensayos ofrece un estudio innovador de los complejos vÃnculos entre la polÃtica y el pentecostalismo africano. Situados en la intersección entre lo polÃtico, lo poscolonial y el capitalismo neoliberal global, los colaboradores examinan las raÃces del extraordinario crecimiento del movimiento pentecostal; cómo el pentecostalismo interviene en cuestiones sociales y polÃticas clave, como la ciudadanÃa, la polÃtica partidaria, los desafÃos del desarrollo y la identidad; y, a la inversa, cómo la polÃtica en Ãfrica modula el movimiento pentecostal.
