Full textAbstract:
Factors affecting the adoption of online banking services by civil servants in Cameroon was examined in this survey. Raw data were gotten through questionnaire which was distributed mostly among the civil servant in Douala of Cameroon. The analyses used in this survey were crosstabs test, descriptive analysis, factor analysis, correlation test, and regression test. The findings revealed that awareness factor has a positive and significant effect on online banking, security & trust assurance showed a negative and insignificant effect on online banking service, innovative factor displayed a negative and insignificant effect on online banking service, and customer service assurance revealed positive but has insignificant impact on online banking service. It was concluded that internet banking is difficult to understand and its time consuming among many of the users and internet fraud discourages the use of internet banking in Cameroon. Additionally, the dissemination of information through the internet is not mostly secure and efficient.

Full textAbstract:
Since the advent of the Internet, religion has maintained a very strong online presence. This study examines how African Christianity is negotiated and practised on the Internet. The main objectives are to investigate to what extent online worshippers in Nigeria, Ghana and Cameroon constitute (online) communities and how interactive the social networks of the churches are. This study shows that some important criteria for community are met by African digital worshippers. However, interaction flow is more of one to many, thus members do not regularly interact with one another as they would in offline worship. Worshippers view the forums as a sacred space solely for spiritual matters and not for sharing social or individual feelings and problems. However, the introduction of social media networks such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and interactive forums is an interesting and promising new development in religious worship in Africa.

Full textAbstract:
The resources of the internet have long served the English language teaching enterprise with varying levels of implementation and success. The Covid19-imposed lockdown in March, 2020 and the Prime Ministerial decision for higher institutions of learning in Cameroon to switch to online lectures fazed many staff, including those on the Use of English programmes in state universities. This study set out to describe Use of English teachers’ views about the place of the internet in English language instruction as well as their online teaching experiences during the Covid-19-imposed lockdown. A questionnaire survey was used to elicit data from thirty Use of English staff affiliated to the Universities of Buea and Bamenda. The findings highlight English language teachers’ firm belief in the potential of internet-based tools to facilitate not only English language learners’ display of 21st century learning skills but English language skills as well. However, not much success regarding the integration of the various internet-based tools was acknowledged. Limited Information and Communication Technology competence, lack of adequate training on how to teach online, poor internet connection, power failures, and high costs of internet subscription, were amongst the challenges enlisted by the subjects in this study. We recommend the effective integration of E-Learning as a post-pandemic pedagogy for Use of English staff in both universities under study.

AbstractResearch on the significance of the mobile phone and internet in transnational family relationships shows that these media provide direct platforms for negotiating remittances. My interest in this article is not so much in how they are used to coordinate and channel money home as in their appropriation to meet expectations of reciprocity. The article draws from field narratives collected among Cameroonians in Germany and in Cameroon to reveal contestations over what can be described as legitimate consumption within the Cameroonian transnational social sphere. Underlying the arguments in this article is my observation that direct communication within the Cameroonian transnational sphere is beset by so much mistrust, discontent and uncertainty that remitters must specify what they are remitting money for. Healthcare in Cameroon is considered an expenditure that is worthy of migrants' financial support.

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse a pour objet la description et l’analyse des marqueurs discursifs (MD) là, par exemple, ékyé et wèé en français parlé au Cameroun, variété de français régional qui s’inscrit dans le français parlé en Afrique subsaharienne. Elle propose une analyse centrée sur les échanges discursifs et prend en compte la pragmatique afin de montrer que la communication repose sur l’intersubjectivité langagière qu’on peut analyser au moyen de traces linguistiques comme les MD. Pour étudier ces phénomènes pragmatiques au demeurant très peu étudiés en français parlé au Cameroun, la recherche s’est organisée principalement autour des notions de flux discursif, d’implicite social et d’interaction afin de comprendre la structuration informationnelle et le contexte situationnel qui motivent l’apparition des MD là, par exemple, ékyé et wèé dans l’organisation du discours, tant dans la production que dans la réception. Le corpus se compose d’échanges radiophoniques d’une part et d’échanges internet d’autre part. La thèse est composée en deux parties. La première rend compte des aspects théoriques, même si nous l’illustrons parfois avec des extraits de notre corpus. La seconde est consacrée à l’analyse systématique des données (le fonctionnement des quatre MD là, par exemple, ékyé et wèé dans les discours radiophoniques et dans les écrits tirés d’internet). Cette analyse a permis de conclure à la difficulté de définir exactement ce qu’est un MD, et de relever l’existence de terminologies concurrentes, tant les théories qui décrivent et expliquent le fonctionnement des MD sont hétérogènes. Nous proposons une définition opérationnelle des MD pour l’analyse de notre corpus et nous plaidons pour une prise en compte des phénomènes oraux et liés à l’interaction dans les études sur le français régional en AfriqueThis thesis sets out to describe and to analyse the discourse markers (DMs) là, par exemple, ékyé and wèé in Cameroon French, a regional variety of French that is spoken in Subsharan Africa. It is a pragmatic study of oral discourses that highlights how communication is based on speech inter-subjectivity such as DMs, which constitute linguistic traces. In order to study these uninvestigated pragmatic phenomena in Cameroon spoken French, three notions were of prime necessity, namely: discursive continuity, social implicity and interaction. These notions help to shed light on the informational structure and on the situational context of the DMs là, par exemple, ékyé and wèé in discourse organization as well as in its production or in its reception. The data of this study was got from two sources: on the one hand, radio programmes, and on the other hand, scripts collected from the internet. The study comprises two parts: Part one focuses on the theoretical concerns, alongside some illustrations of excerpts from the data. The second part provides a systematic analysis of the data (the functioning of the four DMs là, par exemple, ékyé and wèé in radio programmes and in internet scripts). This analysis enabled the confirmation that not only is it difficult to clearly define what a DM is but that there are also several competing terms and explanations, as theories regarding studies on DMs are heterogeneous. We propose an operational definition of DMs for the analysis of the data and suggest that studies on regional French spoken in Africa should take into account oral phenomena related to interaction

Full textAbstract:
One of the most important aspects of monetary policy is an understanding of the transmission process: the mechanism through which the monetary policy actions of the Central Bank impact on aggregate demand and prices by influencing the investment and consumption decisions of households and firms. Thus, commercial banks are regarded as conveyers of monetary policy shocks and are expected to adjust retail interest rates in response to policy shocks one-to-one. In practice, commercial banks adjust their retail rates in response to changes in monetary policy with a lag of several months and this delay is often viewed as an impediment on the ability of the Central Bank to steer the economy. Several reasons, such as credit rationing and adverse selection, switching costs, risk sharing, consumer irrationality, structure of the financial system, menu costs and asymmetric information are some of the causes advanced for commercial banks retail rates being sticky. In spite of the important role of pass-through analysis in the monetary policy transmission process, it has received very little attention in Sub-Saharan Africa, especially in Cameroon and Nigeria, which have implemented a series of reforms. To this end, this study gives a comparative analysis of interest rate pass-through in Nigeria and Cameroon using retail rates (lending and deposit) and a discount rate (policy rate) from January 1990 to December 2010 for Nigeria and from January 1990 to June 2008 for Cameroon. The study examines the magnitude and speed of retail rate adjustments to changes in the Central Bank policy rate as well as examining the possibility of symmetric and asymmetric pass-through in both countries. In addition, the study also investigates whether there is pass-through of monetary policy from one country to the other. The empirical analysis employs four different types of co-integration techniques to test the presence of a long run co-integrating relationship between retail and the policy rates in order to ensure that the relationship detected is robust. Three sets of analyses are carried out in the study. Following Cottarelli and Kourelis (1994), the study employed a co-integration technique, firstly, to analyse pass-through for the entire sample, secondly, to analyse symmetric and asymmetric pass-through using a ten year rolling window analysis in an error correction framework. Finally, the policy rates were swapped around to investigate if there are transmissions of impulses from one country to the other. Overall, evidence from the entire sample and rolling window analysis suggests that monetary policy in Cameroon is less effective. This is perhaps one of the reasons why the Banque Des Etats De L’Afrique Centrale (BEAC) is unable to sterilise the excess liquidity of the banking sector in Cameroon. The long run pass-through of 0.72 and 0.71 for the entire sample, and the average long run pass-through for the rolling window of 0.78 and 0.76 for the lending and deposit rates, suggest that monetary policy is highly effective in Nigeria compared to Cameroon. The empirical evidence confirmed asymmetric adjustment in six rolling windows in the lending rate in Nigeria. Three rolling windows indicated that the direction of rigidity is downward, supporting Scholnick’s (1996) collusive pricing arrangement between banks, and the other three suggested that the lending rate is rigid in the upward direction, corroborating Scholnick’s (1996) customer reaction hypothesis. The deposit rate in Cameroon was also found to adjust asymmetrically and the direction of rigidity is downward, supporting Hannan and Berger’s (1991) customer reaction hypothesis. The investigation of impulse transmission between the two countries revealed that only the policy rate in Nigeria exerts some influence on the deposit rate in Cameroon. Policy recommendations are also discussed.

Full textAbstract:
Comme le modele fordiste de developpement qui l'a longtemps sous-tendu, le financement interne du developpement, base sur une vision exclusivement bifilaire de ce mode de financement, est en crise. Car en effet, le dynamisme de nombreux espaces economiques aujourd'hui reperables dans le monde, et dont la modalite industrielle centrale est "l'industrialisation diffuse", met aussi en evidence un phenomene continu de financement des p. M. E. A travers des circuits non-bancaires et non-etatiques. Pour ce qui est du cameroun, la creation et le developpement de la grande majorite des p. M. E. Ici sont finances par des ressources comme : l'epargne personnelle des createurs d'entreprises, les tontines, l'aide familiale ainsi que le commerce et la rente immobiliere (cette derniere pouvant etre soit la rente locative soit enfin la "rente urbaine"). Tout ceci mettant alors en lumiere enfin, l'inadaptation des banques locales face aux besoins de financement de ces entreprises et surtout, la necessite pour ce pays de concevoir une institution de financement adaptee et qui puise ses mecanismes de fonctionnement sur ceux des tontines locales : instaurant ainsi une structure semi-formelle destinee au financement des petites et moyennes entreprises localesLike the fordist economic model of development which subtended it for a long time, the vision of the internal (or inward) financing of the development, exclusively based under a state control and the financial intermediation, is now in crisis. For as a matter of fact, nowadays, the vitality of several economic spaces in the world seems to be more and more provided by both the dynamism and the abundance of their small industries. And, most of the time, the financing of these latters proceeds neither from the public sector nor the local banks (or financial intermediaries). In what concerning cameroun espacially, the creation just as the development of small and medium size enterprises here are based upon the using of the "parallel financing system". This system is made up of the innumerable local rotative and savings credit associations, the personal savings of firms creators, the family aid (or assistance), the revenues of commerce and the rent from landed estate. And, while showing the local banks incapacity to finance these small enterprises, this manifestation also seems to reveal the necessity, for cameroun, to set up a semi-formal financial institution assigned to the financing of the local small industries

Au Cameroun, les outils de l'Internet sont entrain de reconfigurer la vie sociale, via les appropriations. Comment se dessinent et se profilent les pratiques de l'Internet dans les foyers camerounais ? Quelles sont les raisons de l'engouement des Camerounais pour le Web ? Qui l'utilise ? Où et quand ? Quel temps lui est-il consacré ? Pour faire quoi et surtout comment les intègrent-ils dans leur quotidien et dans le processus de l'amélioration des conditions socio-économiques et culturelles? Pour répondre à ces questions, nous avons mené une enquête (sondage, interview, entretien semi directif,. . . ) auprès de 357 internautes de la ville de Yaoundé (capitale politique du Cameroun). Notre travail est nourri de leurs témoignages, de leurs idées et de leurs réflexions. L'orientation générale tend à prouver la volonté des Camerounais de rompre avec le modèle dans lequel l'espace est compartimenté en fonction de sa dimension locale, nationale ou internationale. Internet au Cameroun apparaît comme une grande fenêtre ouverte sur les opportunités qu'offre le monde.

Full textAbstract:
Approximately 51.3% of small manufacturing businesses lack effective internal controls to deter fraud. Internal control strategies, when adequately implemented, can mitigate fraud and improve profitability in small manufacturing businesses. The objective of this single qualitative case study was to explore the internal control strategies used in a small manufacturing business to mitigate assets misappropriation fraud and improve profitability. Agency theory was the conceptual framework for this study. Five business managers in a small manufacturing firm in Cameroon participated in face-to-face semistructured interviews. The data analysis process included Yin's 5-step process. Identified themes included (a) governance at a higher management level, (b) vendor-related management approach, and (c) operational practices at the department level. Business leaders in small manufacturing firms could benefit from implementing the internal controls and procedures highlighted in this study to deter fraudulent billing from vendors, deceitful payment disbursement to vendors, and misrepresentation of financial statements by company executives. Fraud reduction might help business leaders to safeguard the company's assets and improve production goals by streamlining operational practices, leading to company profitability. In turn, business profitability would result in company leaders paying more taxes, which government officials may use for social amenities and change benefiting people in the community.

Parmi les diverses especes appetees par le betail, l'utilisation de criteres biogeographiques et ecologiques, mais aussi de diffusion pour les especes introduites, permet de distinguer plusieurs groupes dont quelques representants sont etudies separement, du point de vue de l'ecologie, des potentialites fourrageres et de la multiplication. La realisation d'essais d'alimentation sur ovins en cases individuelles et a partir des regimes mixtes a base de fourrages ligneux (alchornea cordifolia, flemingia macrophylla, gliricidia sepium, leucaena leucocephala) et gramineen (pennisetum purpureum), d'autre part les analyses chimiques et les mesures de digestibilite in vitro permettent la mise en evidence des potentialites respectives de ces especes en production animale

Full textAbstract:
Au Cameroun, le développement rapide et exponentiel des TIC a suscité un énorme espoir au sein de la population notamment auprès des couches dites « vulnérables ». Il s’agit de femmes camerounaises et de jeunes qui voient en ces technologies de l’information et de la communication (TIC), un moyen d’émigrer en Europe et en France en particulier. La « cybermigration maritale » est une parfaite illustration de la manière dont les Camerounaises, grâce aux TIC, construisent des « cyberstratégies migratoires » .« Chercher et trouver son blanc » sur la toile est devenu tellement banal que la cybermigration maritale semble être un véritable problème de société dans ce pays d’Afrique centrale. Ainsi, cette thèse s’attache à analyser dans la perspective socio-anthropologique ce phénomène qui touche certaines camerounaises de Yaoundé et du Nord-Pas-de-Calais. L’approche empirique faite d’entretiens semi-directifs et de récits de vie répond à quatre principales questions, à savoir :Qui est cybermigrante ? Comment parvient-elle à émigrer ? Pourquoi émigre-t-elle ? Et quelles sont les technologies modernes de l’information et de la communication qu’utilise-t-elle pour émigrer ? Dans une deuxième approche, cette thèse s’attache à rendre compte de la « cybermigration maritale », telle qu’elle est racontée par les femmes camerounaises du Nord-Pas-de-Calais. Ainsi, la « cybermigration maritale » est donc abordée sous deux angles à savoir : la cybermigration maritale « vue du dehors » avec les potentielles cybermigrantes de Yaoundé et la cybermigration « vue du dedans » avec les cybermigrantes du Nord-Pas-de-CalaisIn the Cameroon the rapid and exponential development of ICT has aroused great hope amongst the population especially where the most vulnerable categories are concerned, in particular young people and women who see this information and communication technology as a means to emigrate. Cybermigration is a perfect illustration of the way in which Cameroonians build migratory "cyberstrategies" thanks to ITC. "To look for and find and white man" on the net has become so commonplace that marital cybermigration seems to be a real social problem in this central African country. Thus, this thesis strives to analyse by means of a socio-anthropological perspective this phenomenon which concerns a certain number of Cameroonians from Yaoundé and the Nord-Pas-de-Calais. The empirical approach consisting of semi-direct interviews and life stories answers four main questions which are: Who is a cybermigrant ? How does she manage to emigrate? Why does she emigrate? Which modern information and communication technologies does she use in order to emigrate? In second part, this thesis tries to make sense and describe the marital cybermigration as it is told of by Cameroonian women of the Nord-Pas-de-Calais. Marital cybermigration is therefore dealt with from two points of view wich are : cybermigration seen from the outside with potential cybermigrant women and cybermigration seen from wikim with cameroonien cybermigrants from the Nord-Pas-de-Calais area

Le développement fulgurant des technologies de l’information et de la communication et singulièrement internet au Cameroun a été suivi par un discours marqué d’une certaine passion autour de la mise en oeuvre de la société de l’information. Sans être réticents aux innovations introduites par les nouveaux moyens de télécommunications, nous avons voulu signaler que « l’entrée du Cameroun dans la société de l’information » pose un certain nombre de questions par rapport aux infrastructures de télécommunications, aux réseaux de télécommunications, à la concurrence dans le secteur des télécommunications, etc.…auxquelles il convient d’apporter des réponses claires et précises. Par ailleurs, la réflexion juridique exige une certaine distance vis-à-vis de ces technologies dans la mesure où il se développe des dérapages et atteintes auxquelles s’ajoutent la complexité et la technicité de la matière. Il est alors nécessaire de se doter d’outils pouvant contribuer à les prévenir ou les sanctionner, dans le respect des règles démocratiquesThe lightning development of information and communication technologies and particularly internet in Cameroon was followed by a speech marked with a certain passion around the implémentation of the information society. Without being reluctant to the innovations introduced by the new means of telecommunications, we wanted to indicate that " the entry into the information society " set down certain number of questions with regard to the infrastructures of telecommunications, to the telecommunication networks, to the competition in the sector of telecommunications, etc… to which it is advisable to bring clear and precise answers. Besides, the legal reflection requires a certain distance towards these technologies as far as it develops skids and infringements to which are added the complexity and the technicality of the subject. It is then necessary to be equipped with tools which can contribute to prevent or to sanction them, in the respect for the democratic rules

Full textAbstract:
Cette étude porte sur l’évaluation de la performance du système bancaire de la zone CEMAC sur la période 1993-2008. La performance interne est captée par l’efficacité technique des firmes bancaires. Celle-ci est mesurée par les approches non paramétriques des modèles de frontière de production, en considérant les crédits comme output de l’industrie bancaire. La décomposition de l’indice de MALMQUIST permet de constater que les banques de la zone présentent des scores contrastés, même si globalement elles affichent une meilleure efficacité d’échelle. L’analyse des externalités des services financiers est limitée au seul cadre du Cameroun et elle est évaluée par l’impact du microcrédit sur le niveau de vie des ménages bénéficiaires, dans une logique de réduction de la pauvreté monétaire et de la pauvreté multidimensionnelle. Les résultats indiquent que la variation du revenu des ménages est conditionnée par l’usage fait du crédit et par les facteurs environnementauxThe objective of this work is to evaluate the performance of the banking system of CEMAC countries from 1993 to 2008. We capture the internal performance of the bank through the technical efficiency of banking firms. We measure this, using non-parametric approaches of production frontier models, while considering credit as the output of the banking industry. Using the MALMQUIST decomposition index, we observe that banks in the zone have quite different scores, even if globally they have a better scale efficiency. The analysis of the externalities of financial services is limited to Cameroon only. We evaluate this through the impact of micro-credits on the standard of living of the beneficiary households within the framework of monetary poverty and multi-dimensional poverty reduction. The results show that the change in households’ incomes is determined by what the loans are used for and by environmental factors

Full textAbstract:
The post-truth politics has been ascendant in Cameroon since the beginning of the Anglophone crisis. Consequently, the country’s political culture has been influenced by appeals to emotion, usually ignoring factual rebuttals. We collected original data using Facebook accounts which are a preserved archive of the way hundreds of millions of Southern Cameroonians and other relate to one another and share genocidal information. The data indicate that the government’s stance on bearing genocidal responsibility changes continuously when internal and external actors pressurize it to investigate crimes committed against humanity as it was the case in the 2020 Ngarbuh massacre and it either remains stagnant or the blames are shifted to the separatists when no serious pressure is exerted on it. The more the truth about crimes against humanity is hidden, the more tension increases, the more trust is destroyed and the more the war will prolong and widen the divide between Ambazonians and La Republique du Cameroon. Martial and cosmetic solutions only help to radicalize the population and instigate them to defy state institutions. Ambazonians’ responses indicate that they did not have to rely on an international community but themselves and it prompted them to take arms and fight the more.

Full textAbstract:
COVID-19 caught everyone by surprise, and even the most advanced higher education institutions around the world probably had challenges moving from Face-to-Face (F2F) to online teaching and learning. For Cameroon, where internet connectivity is still very low, both teachers and students have had a hard time switching to virtual classrooms. This chapter discusses the challenges they have faced in navigating this trajectory in the department of English at the Ecole Normale Supérieure (ENS) of the University of Yaoundé 1 (UYI) during the period of lockdown. Based on the experience of 14 teachers who grappled with 14 online courses and F2F mode, the study concludes that due to students’ inability to access the internet with ease, any online teaching/learning at ENS has to be largely complemented with F2F activities.

Full textAbstract:
Thomas Sharp elaborates on the case of the Union des Populations du Cameroun (UPC), which became an underground guerilla movement in Cameroon after 1955. The UPC attempted in this period and well into the 1960s to build up an international anticolonial network, to mobilize against the structures of collusion between the Ahidjo Government and French institutions. Sharp notably offers a fresh interpretation of UPC activities between 1962 and 1966, which as a phase of the movement has not yet attracted scholarly interest. He links these experiences to the new situation of Cameroon under multi-party democracy from the 1990s, in which many opposition groups have attempted to ‘reveal’ this ‘hidden history’, as a method to secure international support for their political projects. This is especially true of secessionist Anglophone groups, whose leaders, like those of the UPC, claim to have been dispossessed of a ‘true’ independence by the continuation of neo-colonial relationships, as brutal and marginalizing practices.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter introduces a group of 121 women, men, and children on the island of Madagascar that formally converted to Judaism in mid-May 2016. It discusses the Westerners before the conversions that had only vague and second-hand notions about the proselytes' difficulties in maintaining a religiously observant lifestyle in a country that has been plagued with endemic corruption and barely functioning infrastructure for decades. It analyses how the 121 Malagasies relied upon faith in the efficacy of the culture of digital communications, which they had harnessed since 2013 in order to prepare for the conversions. The chapter focuses on kelal yisra'el, the worldwide Jewish community that was facilitated by the globalized matrix of mass communication and enabled the learning of post-exilic Judaism. It identifies the groups of contemporary 'internet Jews' from the developing world, such as the Igbo of Nigeria and the Beth Yeshourun community of Cameroon.

Full textAbstract:
Canadian media guru Marshall McLuhan predicted the rise of the “global village” back in 1962. Time and space, he said, would cease to be barriers to communication, enabling people to form relationships on a worldwide basis. In the past 10 years, rapid growth in communication opportunities has validated much of his analysis. All the same, the world has not turned into one great village. Whole regions of our planet have been excluded, as we can see from the map of the world’s Internet connections. The major links bypass the continent of Africa. From the Atlantic Ocean, they touch the Cape of Good Hope before arcing onward to the Pacific, with just the occasional minor branch to the African coast. They look much like the trade routes of the old Dutch and English East India Companies, in fact. A cable running through Africa would be far too vulnerable, even assuming that any local people or businesses could afford fast Internet connections in the first place. So it is that an entire continent can miss out on the communication revolution, causing it in turn to be shunned by the business world. Software firms develop their programs in China and India rather than in Cameroon. A denser network of communications could give people a greater opportunity to participate in the global economy. It might also give them more control over their water supplies or provide them with early signals of global change. Many other problems that humans face are technical in nature, as are the tools we need to confront them. Microelectronics offers tools to better monitor our health. And more flexible, error-aware computers could steer us away from crises. We need tools that are responsive and ubiquitous. We need to measure and control larger areas on a shorter timescale and with much greater accuracy than is currently possible. We still don’t have enough sensors to monitor our climate or imminent earthquakes. We consume too much energy and too many raw materials in our manufacturing plants because we don’t know how to control the processes more accurately.

Full textAbstract:
This report introduces findings from ten digital rights landscape country reports on Zimbabwe, Zambia, Uganda, Sudan, South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Ethiopia, Egypt, and Cameroon. They analyse how the openings and closings of online civic space affect citizens’ digital rights. They show that: (1) when civic space closes offline citizens often respond by opening civic space online; (2) when civic space opens online governments often take measures to close online space; and (3) the resulting reduction in digital rights makes it impossible to achieve the kind of inclusive governance defined in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We know far more about openings and closings of online civic space in the global North than we do in the global South. What little we do know about Africa is mainly about a single country, a single event, or single technology. For the first time, these reports make possible a comparative analysis of openings and closings of online civic space in Africa. They document 65 examples of the use of digital technologies to open online civic space and 115 examples of techniques used to close online civic space. The five tactics used most often to close online civic space in Africa are digital surveillance, disinformation, internet shutdowns, legislation, and arrests for online speech. The reports show clearly that any comprehensive analysis of digital rights requires consideration of the wider political, civic space, and technological contexts. We argue that countering the threats to democracy and digital rights discussed in the reports requires new evidence, awareness, and capacity. We propose applied research to build capacity in each country to effectively monitor, analyse, and counter the insidious impact of surveillance and disinformation; and a programme to raise awareness and mobilise opinion to open civic space and improve citizens’ ability to exercise, defend, and expand their digital rights.

Full textAbstract:
As Prime Minister, Gordon Brown practised a form of muscular inter-governmentalism, often creating largely invented conflicts with EU partners to demonstrate toughness. He played a positive role in the EU in the 2008 financial crisis. His successor, David Cameron, had hoped to stop the Conservative Party from ‘banging on about Europe’, but the issue of Europe rose in prominence as immigration from the EU became a part of the UKIP threat. The Cameron-led coalition changed the law to provide for referendums on major treaty transfers of powers to the EU. By 2012, Cameron had become convinced of the need for an ‘in’ or ‘out’ referendum. He was caught between insisting that the EU needed to reform and his simultaneous argument that the UK had a vital national interest in remaining a member. His renegotiation was discounted in the Press and by the public.

Full textAbstract:
Friction reduction within the power cylinder assembly of internal combustion engines continues to be a one of the foremost focuses of engine manufactures. In an effort to better address this topic previously developed bench test rigs, such as the Falex, Cameron-Plint, and EMA-LS9 [1,2], have been utilized. These devices were formerly focused solely on wear mechanisms and material compatibility. Current development of new piston ring coatings has demanded significant refinements to the previously mentioned EMA-LS9 test rig for specific frictional characteristic evaluations. These developments have allowed for coefficient of friction ranking between various piston ring materials in addition to the influence and surface finish on coefficient of friction. This paper examines how the test rig is utilized to characterize upper compression ring materials, surface treatments, and the impact of surface finish. The significance of these results will be examined as it applies to analytical evaluations. From these calculations a demonstration of the effect of surface finish on ring dynamics and gas flow, as well as future piston ring coating developments will be discussed.

"Addition of Exhaust Gas Recirculation Onto a Large-Bore, Two-Stroke Natural Gas Engine, and its Effects on Fuel Consumption, Emissions, and Combustion." In ASME 2016 Internal Combustion Engine Division Fall Technical Conference. American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/icef2016-9457.
Full textAbstract:
The focus of this research was to examine the effects of adding exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) on a large bore 2-stroke, lean-burn natural gas (2SLB) engine in its stock configuration, using a previously determined optimal spark plug. EGR has been a common emissions reduction technology used for on-road gasoline, natural gas, and diesel fueled vehicles. EGR — both cooled and uncooled — is found in nearly all on-road and many off-road engines. The optimal spark plug was found in other research and it was tested with various rates of EGR. The test platform was a 1971 Cameron AJAX-E42 single-cylinder engine — common to the natural gas industry. The engine had a bore and stroke of 8.5 × 10 inches, respectively. The engine displacement was 567 cubic inches with a trapped compression ratio of 6:1. The engine was modified to include electronic spark plug timing capabilities along with a mass flow controller to ensure accurate fuel delivery. Each EGR configuration was examined at spark timings of 14, 11, and 8 CAD BTDC. Tests were conducted using an air-cooled, eddy-current power absorber at an engine speed of 525 RPM and load of 400 1b.-ft. of torque. Due to its large thermal inertia, the engine was operated for three hours prior to data collection to ensure representative and operation. In-cylinder pressure data were collected using a piezoelectric pressure transducer at increments of 0.25 CAD. Various levels of EGR and spark timing conditions were evaluated against engine performance including both regulated and unregulated exhaust emissions. Volumetric EGR rates of 2.5% showed reduced NOx emissions and improved fuel efficiency while rates of 5% did not yield NOx reductions.
