Black Girls demonstrates the relevance of colonial legacies in the stories of the Afro-Surinamese and the Eritrean women who, in the 1960s and 70s, migrated to the Netherlands and Italy, ...respectively, and became domestic workers there.
In the early and mid-1940s, during the period of British wartime occupation, community and religious leaders in the former Italian colony of Eritrea engaged in a course of intellectual and political ...debate that marked the beginnings of a genuine national consciousness across the region. During the late 1940s and 1950s, the scope of these concerns slowly expanded as the nascent nationalist movement brought together Muslim activists with the increasingly disaffected community of Eritrean Christians.The Eritrean Muslim League emerged as the first genuine proindependence organization in the country to challenge both the Ethiopian government's calls for annexation and international plans to partition Eritrea between Sudan and Ethiopia. The league and its supporters also contributed to the expansion of Eritrea's civil society, formulating the first substantial arguments about what made Eritrea an inherently separate national entity. These concepts were essential to the later transition from peaceful political protest to armed rebellion against Ethiopian occupation.Paths toward the Nationis the first study to focus exclusively on Eritrea's nationalist movement before the start of the armed struggle in 1961.
This eye-opening personal history tells the story of an American college professor's twenty-year engagement with a thriving Africa rarely encountered by Western visitors, including an extraordinary ...connection to poets across the continent. At once adventurous, spiritual, political, dreamlike, and humorous,Joining Africais a unique documentary of a journey through the continent, including an intense five-year encounter with economically struggling but culturally fertile Eritrea. The Africa presented here is neither a postcolonial study nor an exotic tourist destination. It is rich with the voices of its people, whose languages, Cantalupo argues, have greater potential to effect change than any NGO or high-profile celebrity. In vibrant prose, Cantalupo's book extends a stirring invitation to reevaluate how we engage-both individually and collectively-with this remarkable part of the world.
The paper examines fiscal sustainability issues for the case of Eritrea but has wider implications for addressing fiscal and debt sustainability. It begins with a formal definition and explanation of ...analytical sustainability indicators, followed by an assessment of the causes of fiscal deficits and their impact on the usual indicators of fiscal and external debt sustainability. The paper then goes beyond the usual analytical indicators by attempting to identify how and through which channels fiscal and other economic policies have affected the behavior of endogenous variables that in one way or another influence sustainability.
The Health Sector in Eritrea is part of the World Bank Country Study series. These reports are published with the approval of the subject government to communicate the results of the Bank’s work on ...the economic and related conditions of member countries to governments and to the development community. In March 2001, the Ministry of Health of the Government of Eritrea launched a process to prepare a long-term health sector policy and strategic plan (HSPSP), with a focus on assuring equitable, quality, and sustainable health care. The Ministry outlined an open, participatory, three-step process for developing the HSPSP, with active participation from all partners in the health sector. Step One is the preparation of a health sector review carried out by the World Bank (this study), based on existing documentation provided by the Government and other sources. Step Two consists of conducting an in-depth health sector analysis among five sub-sector working groups—PHC, hospital reform, pharmaceuticals, human resource development, health financing—leading to Step Three, the preparation of a rationale for investments in the future development of the health sector. This study serves as the preliminary basis for further rounds of discussions and analyses among stakeholders to arrive at a strategic vision for the Eritrea health sector. It incorporates comments received from the Ministry of Health’s central agencies, Zoba (regional) health teams, external partners working in Eritrea, and the World Bank Eritrea Country Team.
Članak se bavi analizom percepcije talijanskoga kolonijalizma u Africi s kraja XIX. stoljeća među istarskim Hrvatima koristeći pisanje Naše sloge, prvoga lista na hrvatskome jeziku u Istri. Rano ...talijansko kolonijalno širenje u Africi – od 1885. i zauzimanja luke Massawe u Eritreji do 1896. i poraza kod Adue u Etiopiji – u potpunosti se odvija za vrijeme izlaženja Naše sloge (1870. – 1915.). Naša sloga je čitatelje izvještavala o talijanskom kolonijalizmu isključivo u vrijeme eskalacije tenzija, kao, primjerice, nakon talijanskoga zauzimanja Massawe 1885., poraza koji su im nanijele etiopske snage kod Dogalija 1887., osvetničke ekspedicije 1888. te na kraju talijanske vojne katastrofe kod Adue 1896. godine. Vijesti su uglavnom bile precizne, ali i veoma kratke. Naša sloga, koja je u to vrijeme vodila polemiku s glavnim protivnikom hrvatskoga nacionalnoga pokreta u Istri, talijanskim iredentistima, u vijestima o afričkim događajima nerijetko je oštro kritizirala osvajačke težnje Kraljevine Italije. Stoga su često na njezinim stranicama vijesti
iz Afrike dovođene u korelaciju sa stanjem u Istri, odnosno potrebom za otporom Hrvata protiv talijanskoga hegemonizma. To je bilo posebno vidljivo nakon bitke kod Adue 1896., kada je Naša sloga objavljivala i opsežnije članke koji su analizirali afričke događaje i njihove odjeke u Istri.
Čineći mali dio velikog osvajačkog vala kojega su europske sile pokrenule u Africi u posljednjim desetljećima 19. stoljeća, tek ujedinjena Kraljevina Italija započela je s izgradnjom svoje kolonije ...na obali Crvenog Mora, na prostoru današnje države Eritreje. U radu je dana analiza lokalnog i europskog povijesnog konteksta, navedeni su uzroci talijanskog kolonijalnog širenja, te je iznesen povijesni pregled kronološkim navođenjem važnijih događaja toga razdoblja, što političke, što vojne važnosti. Autor ovaj period talijanskoga kolonijalizma završava događajem kojim je on kulminirao, talijanskim porazom kod Adowe 1896. godine od etiopske vojske, te navodi neposredne i dugoročne posljedice te bitke.
