An ambitious new approach to African studies, utilizing indigenous sources to bring back the voices of the native Africans in their own words rather than that of colonizers and foreigners. Elizabeth Isichei explores the Atlantic slave trade, as reflected in the poetics of rumour and the poetics of memory -- an approach different from the quantitative and demographic studies which have transformed the subject over the past twenty years. To this and to her study of popular consciousness in the colony and postcolony, she brings together a wide range of disciplines -- ethnography, art and art history, and contemporary literary theory among them -- to look at the intellectual history of Africa, from African rather than European premises. The result is a history of popular consciousness which shows the experiences of ordinary people, often in protest to an ongoing experience of exploitation. Elizabeth Isichei is Professor of Religious Studies, Otago University, Dunedin, New Zealand and author of over a dozen books on African history and religion. She holds an Oxford doctorate, and aD.Litt from the University of Canterbury, and is a fellow of the Royal Society [N.Z.]

This examination graphically illustrates the conditions that make dreams of a better life for all virtually unrealizable in rural areas of South Africa. Through the voices of rural people themselves, this study tells not only what the problems surrounding education are but also what can and should be done when the South African government launches its offensive against poverty in rural areas. Rigorous and qualitative, the text is an overview of the need of great numbers of people for the opportunities and capabilities that education can provide for their futures. It also shows the existing situation of many impoverished populations worldwide and illustrates that poverty and inequality continue where such issues are not addressed.

Essay from the year 2005 in the subject African Studies - Miscellaneous, grade: "none", Lund University, course: Development Studies, language: English, abstract: The following exposition on the World Bank and the projects they fund in some African Countries is like agreeing to lend your friend your gun knowing fully well they intend to commit suicide with it They only difference between the World Bank and the projects they fund vis- a- vis my suicide- committing friend is that the projects are real weapons that kill people while my suicide- committing friends remain figments of my imagination. In this paper, I have argued that the World Bank, for “oily” reasons, have funded projects in Africa not because they sought to assist in developing the continent but more so they can benefit and take African oil home. I have used evidence from different sources that include the World Bank itself to fault this selfish capitalist mode of unsustainable operation. This paper notes that the problems ensuing from the foregoing are further compounded by the involvement of corrupt African leaders. It is my contention that to a large extent the World Bank is most guilty since they provide the “pistol” used by African leaders to impoverish the poor masses. In more recent times the situation of the poor around the globe has become an international issue. The right of the poor to good standards of living as noted in the UN declaration on human rights has contributed to increased global concerns on the situation of the poor. I conclude by stating that proper development should focus on the people, and that the World Bank should live up to what it stands for as expounded in it claims that the poor need to be offered means to security, opportunity and empowerment.

Africa: You Must Cast Off Your Colonialist Oppressors! What is the wealthiest continent in the world? Would it surprise you to learn that the answer is Africa? Every country in Africa has vast riches in the form of gems, gold, minerals, hydrocarbon resources, and more . . . and yet, in most African countries, the standard of living is abysmal, except for those who collaborate with colonialists to keep the African people poor, their wealth exploited and stolen from them. The Hidden Voice of Africa is an urgent call for change. It provides a concise history of colonialism in Africa and an examination of ongoing humanitarian and civil rights abuses, as well as a practical, exciting template for sweeping reform to return Africa’s wealth to her people. Whether you are a member of the Black diaspora living in another country, a citizen of Africa seeking a better life, or an ally who wants to support justice for Africa, this book will enlighten and inspire you.

Poverty reduction through microfinance is tied to the belief that access to credit enables poor people to increase business earnings and improve livelihoods. Often the church has embraced microfinance as part of its theology of social transformation. Microfinance practitioners therefore, have to prudently manage their institutions and ensure improvements in poor people's lives - a complex combination given that livelihood changes can only be confirmed by people experiencing poverty. This mini book comes out of my research to investigate how poor people can inform microfinance practitioners for.
