JOURNAL
Africa Journal of the International African InstituteEditor: Professor Karin Barber, University of Birmingham
Africa, the premier journal devoted to the study of African societies and culture, remains the main UK-based, international journal publishing on the whole of Africa, and in all disciplines of the humanities, social sciences and environmental studies, while retaining its historic core orientation to ethnographically rich, historically informed knowledge of life on the ground in Africa.
Africa aims to give increased attention to African production of knowledge, highlighting the work of local African thinkers and writers, emerging social and cultural trends ‘on the ground’, and links between local and national levels of society. At the same time, it maintains its commitment to the theoretically informed analysis of the realities of Africa’s own cultural categories. Each issue contains five or six major articles, arranged thematically, extensive review essays and substantial book reviews.

Perspectives on Vigilantism in NigeriaAfrica Volume 78 Issue 1Guest Editor: David Pratten
This collection focuses on the rise of vigilantism and the privatization of armed security in Nigeria from a number of fresh perspectives that move beyond the ‘collapsed state’ thesis to grasp the more productive and dynamic dimensions of sociality and security both today and during the colonial period.

Knowledge in PracticeExpertise and the Transmission of KnowledgeAfrica Volume 79 Issue 1Guest Editors: Kai Kresse & Trevor H. J. Marchand
This collection illustrates the exercise of ‘expertise’, and explores the criteria by which expert knowledge is judged and the social processes of its validation. Grounded in ethnographic fieldwork among builders, healers, diviners, poets and Islamic scholars, the articles reflect upon the words and deeds of skilled practitioners as they are enounced and enacted in the realm of ritual and the sacred, as well as in the schedule of everyday life and work. Set within local networks and the wider context of national agendas and global economies, a multiplicity of channels for the constitution of knowledge and the negotiation of expertise are explored.

Obafemi Awolowo and the Making of RemoThe Local Politics of a Nigerian NationalistInsa Nolte, University of Birmingham
Insa Nolte examines the evolution of a distinctive Yoruba community, Remo, and the central role played in this process by the Remo-born Nationalist and Yoruba leader Obafemi Awolowo (1909-87). Since the Nineteenth Century, popular participation has played an important role in challenging or confirming local hierarchies in Remo. This historical dynamic had a significant impact on Awolowo’s vision both for Yoruba and Nigerian politics. When he moved into national politics in the 1950s, his career at the national level also gave him the opportunity to shape Remo’s political identity. Awolowo was both a product and a producer of Remo politics.
Based on a subtle analysis of local-level politics, this book argues that traditional and modern participatory structures play an important role both in Yoruba politics and in the African postcolonial state. Nolte makes an important contribution to the scholarly debate on one of Nigeria’s most important politicians.

Beyond the State in Rural UgandaBen Jones, University of East Anglia
‘… a new anthropological perspective on how to think about processes of social and political change in poorer parts of the world, appealing to anyone interested in African development.’ - Society Now
In this innovative study, Ben Jones argues that scholars too often assume that the state is the most important force behind change in local political communities in Africa. Studies look to the state, and to the impact of government reforms, as ways of understanding processes of development and change. Using the example of Uganda, regarded as one of Africa’s few ‘success stories’, Jones chronicles the insignificance of the state and the marginal impact of Western development agencies. Groundbreaking and critical in turn, Beyond the State offers a new anthropological perspective on how to think about processes of social and political change in poorer parts of the world. It should appeal to anyone interested in African development.
Key Features• Offers a new approach to studying
development and change• Looks at problems of international
development assistance• Provides a rich ethnographic rural study

SERIES
International African LibrarySeries Editors: J. D. Y. Peel, Suzette Heald & Deborah James
The International African Library is a major monograph series from the International African Institute. Theoretically informed ethnographies, and studies of social relations ‘on the ground’ which are sensitive to local cultural forms, have long been central to the Institute’s publications programme. The IAL maintains this strength and extends it into new areas of contemporary concern, both practical and intellectual. It includes works focused on the linkages between local, national and global levels of society; writings on political economy and power; studies at the interface of the socio-cultural and the environmental; analyses of the roles of religion, cosmology and ritual in social organisation; and historical studies, especially those of a social, cultural or interdisciplinary character.

The Politics of Religious Change on the Upper Guinea CoastIconoclasm Done and UndoneRamon Sarró, University of Lisbon
Based on research spanning over 12 years, this book offers an in-depth analysis of an iconoclastic religious movement initiated by a Muslim preacher among coastal Baga farmers in the French colonial period. With an ethnographic approach that listens as carefully to those who suffered iconoclastic violence as to those who wanted to ‘get rid of custom’, Sarró discusses the extent to which iconoclasm produces a rupture of religious knowledge and identity, and analyses its relevance in the making of modern nations and citizens. This book will appeal to those with an interest in the anthropology of religion, iconoclasm, the history and anthropology of west Africa, or the politics of heritage.
Key Features• Examines the historical complexity of the
interface between Islam, traditional religions and Christianity in west Africa, and the links with dramatic political changes
• Offers a detailed ethnographic approach• Presents a dialogue between the field
findings, a long tradition of anthropology and the most recent anthropological debates

Art, Performance and Ritual in Benin CityCharles Gore, School of Oriental and African Studies
This book explores the roles of contemporary urban shrines and their visual traditions in Benin City focusing on the charismatic priests and priestesses who are possessed by a pantheon of deities, the communities of devotees, and the artists who make artifacts for their shrines. The visual arts are part of a wider configuration of practices that include song, dance, possession and healing. These practices provide the means for exploring the relationships of the visual to both the verbal and performance arts that feature at these shrines. Charles Gore raises fundamental questions about how the art of Benin, and non-Western art histories more generally, are understood and presents an original and revisionist account of Benin art history.

Masquerades of ModernityPower and Secrecy in Casamance, SenegalFerdinand De Jong, University of East Anglia
How do those on the margins of modernity face the challenges of globalization? This book demonstrates that secrecy, performed as a weapon of the weak, empowers their performers and serves to mark boundaries and define the local in the global. Focusing on initiation rituals, masked performances and modern art, de Jong shows that rituals and performances long deemed obsolete, serve the insertion of their performers in the world at their own terms. The people of the Casamance region in Senegal have always used their rituals and performances to incorporate the impact of Islam, colonialism, capitalism and contemporary politics and continue to do so today. This book will interest anthropologists, historians, political scientists and all those studying how globalisation affects peripheral societies.

The Man-Leopard MurdersHistory and Society in Colonial NigeriaDavid Pratten, University of Oxford
Winner, Amaury Talbot Prize (RAI) 2008
This book is an account of murder and politics in Africa, and a historical ethnography of southern Annang communities during the colonial period. Its narrative leads to events between 1945 and 1948 when the imperial gaze of police, press and politicians was focused on a series of mysterious deaths in south-eastern Nigeria attributed to the ‘man-leopard society’. These murder mysteries, reported as the ‘biggest, strangest murder hunt in the world’, were not just forensic but also related to the broad historical impact of commercial, Christian and colonial aid relations on Annang society.

Philosophising in MombasaKnowledge, Islam and Intellectual Practice on the Swahili CoastKai Kresse, University of St Andrews
Honorable Mention, Herskovits Book Award 2008
This book provides an approach to the anthropological study of philosophical discourses in the Swahili context of Mombasa, Kenya. In this historically established Muslim environment, philosophy is investigated as social discourse and intellectual practice, situated in everyday life. Two poets and an Islamic scholar are portrayed against the background of regional intellectual history, Islamic scholarship, as well as common public debates and private discussions. These contextual portrayals discuss exemplary issues for the wider field of research on philosophical discourse in Mombasa and the Swahili context on the whole, with reference to the lives and projects of distinct individual thinkers. Ultimately, the study directs attention beyond the regional and the African contexts, towards the study of knowledge and intellectual practice around the world.

Media and Identity in AfricaEdited by John F. M. Middleton & Kimani Njogu, Kenyatta University, Kenya
Studies of the media in Africa, incorporating both African and international perspectives, are few. This book demonstrates how media outlets are used to perpetuate, question or modify the unequal power relations between the North and the South. Focusing on east Africa, topics include discussions of the construction of old and new social entities, as defined by class, gender, ethnicity, political and economic differences, wealth, poverty, cultural behaviour, language and religion. Globalization is being countered by local responses, within the context of social and cultural identities. Essentially, the book describes the tensions between the global and the local, tensions not often discussed in media studies, thus pioneering new debates.

Transforming Settlement in Southern AfricaEdited by Chris de Wet & Roddy Fox
This volume examines the ways in which changing political and economic processes impact upon patterns of population movement and settlement. It focuses on the southern African region as it has moved from the experiments of the early independence era, through civil war and refugee flight, into the current era characterised by globalization and the demise of apartheid. Focused case studies from across the region deal with specific aspects of these transformations and their policy implications.

SERIES
International African Seminars
The International African Seminars and the volumes based on them have long been regarded as one of the International African Institute’s most important contributions to African Studies. The seminars bring Africanist specialists together from inside and outside the continent to debate particular topics in Africa, ranging from indigenous African systems of thought and Islam in sub-Saharan Africa to urbanisation and trade and the formation of elites.

African American StudiesJeanette Davidson, University of Oklahoma
This volume introduces students and scholars to the large and rich area of inquiry and scholarship known as African American Studies (also called Black Studies, Africana Studies, and Pan African Studies). Students are presented with foundational content in the discipline; a focus on social activism and community service as inextricably linked to African American Studies; an understanding of related global perspectives; selected areas of creative narratives and production in the discipline; and a look to the future of the discipline. A common thread running throughout each chapter of the text is a focus on the application of knowledge from African American Studies via advocacy and community service.

A Historical Companion to Postcolonial Literatures in EnglishEdited by Prem Podder, University of Southampton & David Johnson, the Open University
The focus of the Companion is principally on the histories of postcolonial literatures in the Anglophone world – Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, South-east Asia, Australia and New Zealand, the Pacific, the Caribbean and Canada, as well as those further areas that have also claimed the title ‘postcolonial’, notably Britain, East Asia, Ireland, Latin America and the United States. The Companion contains 220 entries written by 150 acknowledged scholars of postcolonial history and literature, and covers major events, ideas, movements, and figures in postcolonial histories.

A Historical Companion to Postcolonial Literatures - Continental Europe and its Empires Edited by Prem Poddar, University of Southampton, Rajeev Patke, National University of Singapore & Lars Jensen, Roskilde University
‘The Companion is unique in that it provides a wealth of analysis and information about all European continental powers and their colonies and presents the entire assembly in a wonderful mis-en-scène. It is a ‘true’ companion that invites trans-cultural readings of trans-cultural literatures.’ - Walter Mignolo, Duke University
This is the first reference work to provide an integrated and authoritative body of information about the political, cultural and economic contexts of postcolonial literatures that have their provenance in the major European Empires of Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Latin America and the Philippines.
Regional Editors: John Beverley, Charles Forsdick, Pierre-Philippe Fraiture, Ruth Ben-Ghiat, Theo D’haen, Lars Jensen, Birthe Kundrus, Elizabeth Monasterios, Phillip Rothwell
