Based on extensive fieldwork, this study telescopes how lineage ideologies are constructed and change over time in the Zambezi River region, where matriliny and patriliny coexist. The author challenges the notion that patrilineality has subsumed matrilineal formations and demonstrates that despite colonial policies that privileged patrilineal gender relations of production—a preference that was extended by the postcolonial states—matrilineal relations of production have been adroitly sustained and even dominate in large parts of Malawi, northern Mozambique, and parts of Zambia and Zimbabwe. Looking specifically at the linkages between gender and ethnicity in the construction of lineage ideologies, the author offers a comparative study of women's changing status in the region and explores the implications for development policies at both the local and state levels.

The elegists, ancient Rome's most introspective poets, filled their works with vivid, first-person accounts of dreams. Emma Scioli examines these varied and visually striking textual dreamscapes, arguing that the poets exploited dynamics of visual representation to share with readers the intensely personal experience of dreaming.

Most of the 13 essays presented here were originally presented at the January 1997 "Gender and Colonialism" conference held at the U. of Western Cape (South Africa). Presented by Woodward (English and cultural studies, U. of the Western Cape), Hayes (history, U. of the Western Cape), and Minkley (history, U. of the Western Cape), the contributions address both colonial and postcolonial issues of identity in Southern Africa from a variety of perspectives within contemporary critical and feminist theories. Topics include slave women's rhetoric and the Eastern Cape courts, ideologies of domesticity and the British construction of the "primitive," Dutch- Afrikaans women's entry into the public sphere in the Cape Colony, male nursing in the mines of 20th-century South Africa, and "gender- blending" and "code-switching" in the South African novel.

In the 1970s and 1980s Indiana University Press published a series of books edited by Gwendolen Carter and others on economic and political conditions in Southern Africa during the apartheid era. The Uncertain Promise of Southern Africa is a return to that successful format in the post-apartheid era. Leading scholars analyze the economic, political, social, and cultural conditions in Southern Africa and the prospects for the region. The first part of the book examines the current political and development situation in six countries--South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Angola, and Mozambique. The second part focuses on issues of enduring importance in the region--education, health, gender, the law, intra- and inter-regional power relations, international commerce, and popular culture.

Deals with colonialism in a Namibian periphery and considers both the German colonial period as well as South African rule in the country. The main is to develop an understanding of the dynamics and vectors of change in the Kaoko's African societies gradually being placed under colonial rule. With a focus on socio-economic processes the thesis explores the continuous reconstitution of gender roles and relations and anchors its argument on an integrated analysis of archival written and visual sources as well as on oral knowledge.

Gender policies from Portuguese colonialism, through Frelimo socialism, to later neo-liberal economic regimes share certain basic assumptions about women, men and gender relations - but to what extent do such assumptions fit the ways in which rural Mozambican men and women see themselves?
