Book The Making of a Periphery

Download or read book The Making of a Periphery written by Pekka Seppälä and published by Nordic Africa Institute. This book was released on 1998 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes a periphery? The south-eastern corner of Tanzania is officially one of the poorest corners of the world and is always presented as a peripheral area. This volume presents a lively discussion on the making of a periphery. The contributors show the interaction between the perceptions of outsiders, the views of local people, and the actual development efforts. The authors perceive development as a negotiated and contested field. Culture is not considered a factor constraining development but is seen rather as an engine which, due to the plurality of local and outsider cultures, sets the parameters for the battle.

Book Manufacturing Powerlessness in the Black Diaspora

Download or read book Manufacturing Powerlessness in the Black Diaspora written by Charles Green and published by AltaMira Press. This book was released on 2002-05-09 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the economic utopianism brought on by globalization, effective solutions to the persistent plight of urban blacks throughout the African diaspora continue to elude scholars, politicians, and community leaders. Charles Green brings a decade of research and original fieldwork in Africa, the Caribbean, and the United States to investigate the interface of the historic racism faced by these urban communities and contemporary trends of globalization. Green pays particular attention to the condition of the youth, whose aspirations, vulnerabilities, and insights into their own conditions are central to the future prospects for their communities as a whole. Considering the impacts of economic restructuring and cultural diffusion alike, his analysis asserts the importance of both global ties and local distinctiveness. Ultimately, Manufacturing Powerlessness aims to encourage the formation of alliances throughout the diaspora so that urban black communities can manufacture a future of empowerment.
