Abstract:

West Africa was in the grips of an Ebola Virus Disease outbreak, caused by the emerging Makona variant of Ebola virus. High resolution molecular methods including transcriptomics and proteomics were utilised to profile the host response to the emergent Makona variant from West Africa, and compare this response with that induced by infection with other ebolaviruses, in order to identify host factors potentially important in host pathology. A comparison between Makona and other well characterised variants of Ebola virus showed that induced differences in the host response were not significant (Chapter 3) and that the transcriptomic changes were very similar to previously characterised isolates. To evaluate the importance of interferon to the lifecycle of the Makona variant, in vitro comparisons with Reston virus were performed to highlight important changes in the antiviral state of multiple cell lines during infection, this showed an effective interferon response was not a major determinant of successful ebolavirus infection (Chapter 4). The pro-inflammatory response to the Makona variant and Reston virus were compared in a relevant inflammatory cell type (Chapter 5). Analysis indicated that a highly active NFκB response may be required for efficient virus replication, indicating a potent inflammatory response is essential for the virus lifecycle (Chapter 6). The Makona variant of Ebola virus was hypothesised to induce distinctive transcriptional and proteomic changes in infected cells. In this thesis, evidence is presented that infection with the Makona variant does not induce significantly different patterns of host response from that observed in other ebolaviruses, and presents the first longitudinal transcriptomic analysis of patient infected with the Ebola virus, Makona variant. Furthermore, this study has revealed the critical role of NFκB in the lifecycle of the ebolaviruses.

Abstract:

La problématique de la faune sauvage en Afrique Centrale a presque toujours été abordée par l'aspect négatif de l'impact des activités humaines sur cette dernière. Souvent, la chasse et le commerce de viande de brousse sont tenus pour responsables du déclin de la faune sauvage forestière. Sous l'égide de Bailleurs de Fonds, (FAO, BM, UE, ONGs Internationales. . . ) plusieurs études tendent à mettre en évidence l'impact négatif de ces pratiques sur la biodiversité au point de l'ériger en phénomène de société. La question que se posent les auteurs est toujours celle de l'impact de la chasse sur les populations animales et la perdurabilité de cette activité. Cette vision occidentale a conduit à promouvoir en Afrique Centrale des politiques de gestion de la faune sauvage basées sur l'exclusion des populations des zones de production dont certaines englobent des terroirs coutumiers. Dans cette thèse, nous essayons de replacer ce débat dans un contexte local où les populations rurales, déjà marginalisées par le pouvoir en place au Gabon, doivent subsister au quotidien dans la précarité. L' exploitation commerciale de la faune sauvage, une ressource parmi tant d'autres, apparaît alors pour elles comme une solution d'avenir. Pour ce faire, nous avons examiné de près la filière chasse et particulièrement le commerce de la viande de brousse à Makokou, une des localités gabonaises aux alentours de laquelle la faune sauvage est encore omniprésente. L'étude a porté sur le suivi du Potamochère, une des espèces phares de la chasse et du commerce de gibier à Makokou. Il ressort de notre étude que la chasse à Makokou, même si elle est d'abord une réalité culturelle, est devenue au fil du temps une activité lucrative. Les chasseurs allient savoirs cynégétiques traditionnels et outils modernes pour rentabiliser au maximun leur activité. Face à cette réalité, toute politique de conservation qui viserait à contrer cette tendance serait vouée à l'échec d'où l'intérêt pour la faune sauvage comme pour les populations, d'accompagner les acteurs de la filière vers une exploitation pérenne de la ressource aussi bien qu'un élevage de celle-ci<br>The issue of wildlife in Central Africa has almost always been approached from the aspect of the negative impact of human activities. Hunting and the trading of bush meat are often seen as the main factors responsible for the decline of forest wild life. Studies funded by various sponsors (FAO, World Bank, European Union, International NGOs) tend to imply the negative impact of those practices on the biodiversity. The question that the authors are concerned about is always the impact of hunting on animal populations and the sustainability of these activities. In Central Africa this "Western vision" has led to the promotion of wildlife management policies that exclude local people from priority production zones that sometimes include traditional hunting areas. In this study we try to place the debate in a local context where the rural peoples are already marginalized by the Gabonese government and have to live their daily lives in precarious conditions. From this perspective the commercial exploitation of wildlife, which is one resource among many others, seems to be a promising solution. We have carried out a detailed study of the network of hunting and bush meat trading in Makokou, one of the Gabonese areas where wildlife is still omnipresent. The study focuses on the system of exploitation of the red river hog, one of the most important species for hunting and game trade in Makokou. It shows that over the course of time hunting has become a lucrative activity in Makokou, even though it is in the first place a traditional activity. In order to increase the profitability, hunters combine traditional knowledge with modern tools. Any conservation policy aimed at preventing this will be condemned to failure. It is therefore in the interest of the wildlife as well as the human populations to encourage the different actors to become involved in the sustainable exploitation of the resource including the breeding of the species

Abstract:

Listed development activities, which may have a substantial detrimental effect on the environment require an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). One of the important elements of the EIA process is the submission of a scoping report and/or an environmental impact report (EIR) to the relevant government department and to, specialist and interested and affected parties for review, in order to determine whether the report is adequate and/or whether a greater quantity of information is required before a decision for project approval can be made. Information available in the reports to decision-makers with regard to developments with the potential of affecting wetlands can play a significant role regarding the protection and/or destruction of wetlands. The acceptance of the assessments reports after the authority review process depends, inter aha, upon the quality of the report. However, the current DEAT guideline document on EIA regulations (DEAT, 1998a) does not provide specific guidance to EIA practitioners in considering wetlands within the current EIA, nor any guidance on what a good EIA should include for projects that have the potential of impacting on wetlands, as observed with the World Bank guideline document on EIA and wetlands. Hence, this study aimed at assessing the quality of the EIA assessment reports of four projects with the potential of impacting on wetlands. The objectives of the study included the review by independent reviewers of the quality of four-selected impact reports using a checklist, analysis of the review process results and provision of recommendations to improve the quality of environmental impact reports for projects with the potential of impacting on wetlands. Based on the review results it is concluded that: -The four reports were rated as satisfactory despite some omissions and/or inadequacies observed. -The identification and evaluation of impacts, which forms the core area of the EIA, process was weakly performed. -The review method is fairly robust and consistent/reliable. The following were recommended: -The availability for and use of a quality review checklist by EIA practitioners and authorities as an additional tool to the EIA regulations (DEAT 1997), and the Integrated Environmental Management series (DEAT, 2002) can further improve the quality of the reports for projects with the potential of affecting wetlands. -The availability for and use by EIA practitioners of a wetland review checklist will assist in ensuring that all key aspects are addressed before submission to the relevant authority i.e. the report is scientifically and technically sound; the report is clearly and coherently organised and presented so that it can be understood and that it has addressed all the important issues to make a decision about the proposed development. This will further assist in fast-tracking the approval process usually delayed by the request of additional information from the applicant as a result of inadequate reports. -Regular use of the review checklist by EIA practitioners and authorities for ascertaining the quality of the environmental impact reports will contribute to a baseline of EIR quality for evaluation of Wetlands EIA practice under the new regulations due in 2005.<br>Thesis (M.

Abstract:

Anthropology<br>Ph.D.<br>Women have legendary roles as traders who financially dominate the sale of various market goods in West Africa. Head porters are young women from Ghana's rural northern region who work as human transporters in the various markets in urban areas throughout the country. Kayayei (female head porters) who work at these famed markets are the focus of this dissertation. The north of Ghana is the agricultural breadbasket of the country, with strong Islamic influences that thrive in dispersed, mostly rural ethnic enclaves. This contrasts sharply with the service manufacturing and trade economies that mark Christian influenced southern Ghana. As young women migrants arrive in Accra, this dissertation focuses on narratives of head porters as they confront the multi-ethnic, hierarchical social climates of the city, particularly Accra's largest shopping venue, Makola Market. This dissertation uses theories in phenomenology, informed by feminist anthropology, to consider the political economy of Ghana in order to examine how head porter's lives are grounded with the development history and the spread of capitalism in the nation-state. Throughout this dissertation, attention is given to the widespread informalization of the economy in the nation-state and the role of head porters in these processes. Using a methodology of collaborative photography with kayayei, this dissertation examines the politics of visibility and analyzes the kinds of skills these women develop in order to survive and negotiate the socio-economic hierarchies of urban space. By situating the theoretical and methodological concerns of this research within the social realities of rural-urban migrants, this dissertation explores migration as a sensibility that acts upon various social terrains at markets in Accra, Ghana.<br>Temple University--Theses

Abstract:

Studies on market trader activism in Africa routinely approach traders' claims-making practices from the perspective of the state's regime of signifying order, in relation to which opposition simply seeks to render itself “legible” (Scott 1998). In contrast, this dissertation contends that one must pay close attention to the multiple significations of order and disorder that exist in any social situation and which, through their continuous permeation, fuel transformations of normative plausibilities and, by extension, of the grounds for claims. With a grounding in the theory of the social and political quality of time, I show how the idea of coeval temporalities sensitises observers to the multiple sources of significations of order and disorder – particularly, with regard to subjects' relation to authority – and their creative adaptation in the moment of temporal convergence. The central marketplace of Accra, the capital of Ghana, provides the context for this study. My empirical analysis of this social arena that is closely connected to global flows of people, capital, consumer items and, inevitably, ideas, including those related to order and associated grounds of entitlement adds to the underappreciated theoretical strand the actor-centred process of translation that engenders creative adaptations between converging coeval temporalities.

Abstract:

Alors que la Grande Île avait été, durant des siècles, exportatrice d'esclaves, elle se mit au XIXe siècle à importer de façon massive des esclaves de l'Afrique orientale. Tous les esclaves est-africains ont été appelés Madagascar par les termes génériques de « Makoa » ou « Masombika », qui ont continué à désigner leurs descendants. À l'Ouest de Madagascar, des vieux Makoa continuent de transmettre le souvenir de leurs ancêtres venus d'au-delà des mers. En suivant le fil de ces récits oraux, confrontés à diverses sources archivistiques, j'ai tenté de reconstituer l'histoire de la traversée de ces aïeux, de l'Afrique centrale de l'Est à la côte Ouest de Madagascar. Leur migration forcée s'est réalisée au cours de la seconde moitié du XIXe sied( dans un contexte où la traite des esclaves était considérée comme illégale. Dans l'Ouest malgache, les MakoE ou Masombika ont connu des situations juridiques et des conditions sociales différentes. La pluralité de leurs stratégies individuelles et collectives, en contexte d'esclavage et de post-esclavage, illustre le caractère hétérogène du groupe. Des facteurs de cohésion liaient toutefois les Makoa, qui ont parlé à Madagascar une seule et même langue, importée du Mozambique<br>While Madagascar had been exporting slaves for centuries, in the nineteenth century, the Big Island began to import massively slaves from East Africa. Ail African slaves were called by the generic terms of "Makoa" or "Masombika" which continued to nominate their descendants in Madagascar. In the West, old Makoa inhabitants continue to transmit the memory of their ancestors who came from beyond the seas. Following the course of these oral narratives, faced with various archivai sources, I tried to reconstruct the history of the crossing of these ancestors, from East Africa to the West coast o Madagascar. Their forced migration was carried out during the second half of the nineteenth century, when the slave trade was considered illegal. In western Madagascar, the Makoa or Masombika experienced different legal situations and social conditions. The plurality of their individual and collective strategies, in context of slavery and post-slavery, illustrates the heterogeneity of the group. However, cohesion factors linked the Makoa, who spoke in Madagascar a single language, imported from Mozambique

Abstract:

This study investigates the ceremonial village of Orongo and the sacred site of Mata Ngarau. They are located on the southern edge of the Ranu Kau volcano crater, as well as the Motu Nui islet in front of the named volcano. Orongo was the scenario of important political and religious events that submerged Rapa Nui and its inhabitants in a magical story from the mid-1500s to the mid-1800s. This study aims, to some extent, elucidate the context in which the legend and the ritual of the Tangata Manu originates and its importance for the development of the Rapa Nui society. The study examines archaeological, ethnohistorical and contemporary evidences of the birdman cult and contradictory theories about the catastrophe that loomed over the Rapa Nui society The archaeological evidence of those events is the silent testimony of the god Make Make and Tangata Manu, the birdman, the god representative on earth. These are carved on the edge and the slopes of the Ranu Kau crater, in the carved and rupestrian paintings of the stone houses of Mata Ngarau at Orongo, in the caves of the Motu Nui islet and in the one of the cannibals, Ana Kai Tangata. Ethnohistorical evidences provide data on the ritual activities in connection to the birdman cult. The social and environmental degradation which causes of the almost total extermination of its inhabitants as well as the eroding of its culture and with it that of the birdman, Tangata Manu. Today the birdman culture and Orongo is one of the prominent visitors’ sites on the island but interviews with Indigenous Rapanui show that the site also continue to have spiritual and political meaning in today’s society. The modern Rapa Nui society today shows contradictory features. On the one hand we see the face of a thriving, mercantilist society, with hundreds of thousands of tourists visiting it annually and buying handicrafts of dubious local creation. On the other hand, we observe the efforts of hundreds of islanders who struggle to maintain their language, their cultural heritage, their petroglyphs, their cave paintings and their legends. That is the spirit of the rebellion of Tangata Manu.
