Book The Vitality of Karamojong Religion

Download or read book The Vitality of Karamojong Religion written by Ben Knighton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How long can a traditional religion survive the impact of world religions, state hegemony, and globalization? The ’Karamoja problem’ is one that has perplexed colonial and independent governments alike. Now Karamojong notoriety for armed cattle raiding has attracted the attention of the UN and USAID since the proliferation of small arms in the pastoralist belt across Africa from Sudan to stateless Somalia is deemed a threat to world security. The consequences are ethnocidal, but what makes African peoples stand out against state and global governance? The traditional African religion of the Karamojong, despite the multiple external influences of the twentieth century and earlier, has remained at the heart of their culture as it has changed through time. Drawing on oral accounts and the language itself, as well as his extensive experience of living and working in the region, Knighton avoids Western perspectivism to highlight the successful reassertion of African beliefs and values over repeated attempts by interventionists to replace or subvert them. Knighton argues that the religious aspect of Karamojong culture, with its persistent faith dimension, is one of the key factors that have enabled them to maintain their amazing degree of religious, political, and military autonomy in the postmodern world. Using historical and anthropological approaches, the real continuities within the culture and the reasons for mysterious vitality of Karamojong religion are explored.

Book Kakungulu   the Creation of Uganda  1868 1928

Download or read book Kakungulu the Creation of Uganda 1868 1928 written by Michael Twaddle and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a history of the early days of Uganda. The account has an African focus because it shows the British takeover through the experiences of an extraordinary leader. "At this spot in the year 1901 the British flag was first hoisted by Semei Kakanguru, emissary and loyal servant of His Majesty the King. He built here a boma which was for a short time the headquarters of the district. From this beginning came the establishment of peace and the development of orderly progress in this part of Uganda." Michael Twaddle was shown this plaque in 1963 by a local government official who said "That man created the Uganda we Ugandans are fighting for today." And yet the local people had had the plaque removed to a bicycle shed. How do people regard an African who had an active role in the creation of the imperial state? Was this man "a hero," "a collaborator," "a warlord"? The reaction of colonial officials was mixed. One considered him "...in point of general intelligence, progressive ideas and charm of manner...far above all other natives in the Protectorate..." Another dismissed him, along with his companions, as "no better than Masai or Nandi cattle lifters." And yet another viewed him as "undoubtedly...a partial religious maniac." The story of this man is an example of the dilemma for a whole generation of East Africans at the turn of the last century. This book has been compared in its importance to Shepperson's and Price's Independent African.
