This study examines the attempts of the Ugandan government to enunciate and implement a policy of child welfare that is community based. The study analyses child care practices in traditional communities, and highlights the disruptions caused by external influences, including the imposition of a colonial system. It also considers important impacts, dictatorships, civil wars, economic problems, and the AIDS epidemic. The implementation of a new approach to child welfare, one oriented to a conception that looks back to a time when Ugandan society was community based, is explored. The dilemmas within the attempt to implement such a policy are also discussed. The analysis suggests that the spirit of communalism still exists in Uganda with regard to child care. Nevertheless, it also appreciates that communities are faced with many problems that might undermine it. Paramount among these are the AIDS epidemic and lack of resources. As well, western ideas and concepts such as gender equality and children's rights might influence attempts to re-establish traditional forms of child welfare. Thus, considering that many changes have occurred in communities, the traditional context has been altered, and some traditional communal practices might not be useful or relevant in the modern context. Nonetheless, there are positive practices that can be revisited and strengthened. It is the view of this study, therefore, that the garden we wish to reclaim will need different methods of cultivation from those used in the traditional garden. Consequently, the garden will be different from the traditional one.

This book is the first ever major effort to document and study hundreds of texts from an African (Ugandan) oral culture for children – folktales, riddles, and rhymes – and at the same time to make them available in the local Languages and to focus on their cultural and national value. The author surveys the history of collecting in Uganda and situates the texts in their broader geographical, historical, socio-cultural and educational Setting, including the early collecting efforts of heritage-minded Ugandans and European missionaries. Most of this preservational work is elusive and under-explored – so that the present book constitutes a major pioneering summary of Ugandan oral culture for children. The book addresses key questions such as: What happens when we collect, transcribe, and translate an oral text? How do we transfer components of the oral text to the page? What are the challenges of translating oral forms targeting specifi¬cally a child Audience, and what choices ought to be made in the process? The book provides possible ways of rethink¬ing the debate about orality and literacy as modes of representation – the generic interrelationship between the oral and the written text, and how the two can enter dialogue through transcription and translation. The latter are effective means to archive these oral forms for children and use them to promote literacy and numeracy skills in predominantly oral communities. In the current institutions of formal education in Uganda, this coexistence of orality and literacy is evident in the class¬room environment, where the oral text is turned into words on the page to encourage literacy. Through transcription, the collector is able to capture oral texts in other forms – audio, written, visual, and digital. With the new technologies available, the task is not as arduous as in the past, and the information thus captured is made available in all its wealth for purposes of instruction or entertainment.

Statistical Rethinking: A Bayesian Course with Examples in R and Stan builds readers’ knowledge of and confidence in statistical modeling. Reflecting the need for even minor programming in today’s model-based statistics, the book pushes readers to perform step-by-step calculations that are usually automated. This unique computational approach ensures that readers understand enough of the details to make reasonable choices and interpretations in their own modeling work. The text presents generalized linear multilevel models from a Bayesian perspective, relying on a simple logical interpretation of Bayesian probability and maximum entropy. It covers from the basics of regression to multilevel models. The author also discusses measurement error, missing data, and Gaussian process models for spatial and network autocorrelation. By using complete R code examples throughout, this book provides a practical foundation for performing statistical inference. Designed for both PhD students and seasoned professionals in the natural and social sciences, it prepares them for more advanced or specialized statistical modeling. Web Resource The book is accompanied by an R package (rethinking) that is available on the author’s website and GitHub. The two core functions (map and map2stan) of this package allow a variety of statistical models to be constructed from standard model formulas.
