Abstract:
In 1926, the Governor-General of French West Africa issued a decree allowing local administrations to use a portion of the annual military draft as labourers on public works programmes. The only administrations to take full advantage of this decree was that of the French Soudan, where work had already begun on the first phase of the vast Niger irrigation scheme now known as the Office du Niger. During the next twenty-five years, more than fifty thousand so-called ‘second-portion’ workers from Soudan were assigned to the Office du Niger for a period of three years' service. Ironically, this new system of forced labour to exploit the irrigated land.

Abstract:
Dieser Beitrag untersucht bäuerlichen Widerstand gegen Vertreibung durch Landgrabbing in dem zu Zeiten der französischen Kolonialherrschaft gegründeten Entwicklungsprojekt Office du Niger in Mali. In dem analysierten Fall handelt es sich um eine fast zehn Jahre andauernde Auseinandersetzung zwischen Kleinbäuerinnen und -bauern und einem malischen Großunternehmer um landwirtschaftlich nutzbare Flächen. Es werden drei Strategien kleinbäuerlichen Widerstands identifiziert (kollektives Vorgehen, Anrufung des Staates, nationale und internationale Allianzen) und deren Möglichkeiten und Beschränkungen diskutiert. Der Artikel argumentiert, dass der Kampf um Rückgabe des entzogenen Landes bzw. für umfassende Kompensation bislang erfolglos war, weil zum einen keine Einigkeit zwischen den Akteur*innen des Widerstands besteht und zum anderen die Verwaltungsbehörde Office du Niger wie ein „listiger“ Staat im Staat agiert. Erfolgreich ist der Widerstand hingegen insofern, als er immer noch andauert, wobei insbesondere transnationale Allianzbildung und die Adressierung von „Gebern“ wie der Afrikanischen Entwicklungsbank und dem BMZ Wirkung zeigt.

Abstract:
This study is on the role played by Multinational Oil Companies (MNOCs) and Niger Delta elites in the underdevelopment of the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The study adopts a descriptive approach drawing data mainly from secondary data such as books, articles in newspapers, journals, internet etc. The study found that the Niger Delta region is endowed with natural resources. Among this is crude oil which is the mainstay of the Nigerian economy.Despite this oil wealth however, the region is largely underdeveloped. Poverty, massive unemployment, absence of safe drinking water, filth and squalor, lack of access to health care,education and housing among others are some of the features of the region. The problem of underdevelopment in the Niger Delta was traced to MNOCs and Niger Delta elites. The paper therefore argues that oil exploration activities of MNOCs such as gas flares and oil spills which have resulted in environmental degradation have deprived the people of the region their means of livelihood while corrupt practices of Niger Delta elites who embezzle funds meant fordevelopment have been responsible for the underdevelopment of the region. The study recommends among others the need for MNOCs to compensate the people for years of environmental degradation while Niger Delta elites found guilty of embezzlement while in office should be sent to jail.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThis article analyses the historical roots of decentralization, a policy which is presented in the development world as the miracle cure to Third World evils. The text is based on the current literature on the topic as well as field research carried out in Mali in the Office du Niger region, which, already in the colonial period, represented a particular decentralization challenge. It offers a critical perspective on the concept of decentralization, which some trace back to the Middle Ages, and examines colonial experiences. How can the Malian state, inherited from the colonial state, decentralize everything whilst adopting the policy according to which the lands of the central delta of the Niger have been state-owned property since 1935? The aim is to show the analogy between problems encountered by the French colonial state and those that plague the Malian post-colonial state, whilst guarding against the sirens of a false authenticity reeking of neo-traditionalism.

Abstract:
Mali's Office du Niger was conceived on a monumental scale to produce cotton for the French textile industry after the First World War. Undaunted by the conspicuous absence of both manpower and a viable crop, Émile Bélime, the scheme's originator and presiding genius, believed colonial authorities could compel people from all over French West Africa to settle there. Under pressure from Paris, local administrators became his recruiting agents, forcibly resettling some 30,000 Africans by 1945, when the colonial ministry privately declared the scheme an unqualified failure. In 1960, France recycled the project as a prototype of disinterested aid to a developing country.

Abstract:
Drug is a substance, which trouble brain. One of the reasons for juvenile delinquency is drug use. The present work is a retrospective study based on seizures of drugs made by the Niger courts and. Evaluation of the drug utilization by people according to the statistics of drug seizures from 2013 to 2016 of the Central Office for the Suppression of Illegal Traffic in Narcotics (OCRTIS). According to the statistics of drug seizures from 2013 to 2016 of the Central Office for the Suppression of Illegal Traffic in Narcotics (OCRTIS). Nine (9) types of drugs belonging to six (6) families were seized in Niger including: Amphetamines, Cannabis, Crack, Cocaine, Diazepam, Ephedrine, Heroin, Methamphetamines and Tramadol. These come from all countries bordering Niger but also from East Africa and Central Africa and the data gathered was analyzed using MS Excel. It should be noted that the percentage of those charged varies according to age group whose: the under 18’s are 6%, 59% are between 18 and 29 years, 25% are between 30 and 39 years, the 40 years and over are 10%. So most of the people which have been arrested are minors between 18 and 39 years old. In addition, it is necessary to mention 2% of women against 98 % of men in the said sale and consumption. If the number of seizures increases each year, the possibility of drug consumption by its users would also grow and highlights important diseases related to their consumption. Thus, the more appropriate implication of the blood and urine tests of these drug users.

Abstract:
The Office du Niger irrigation scheme, located on the Niger River in the Republic of Mali, originated in a grandiose but seriously flawed proposal devised in 1920 by a French colonial Public Works engineer named Emile Bélime. Originaly conceived as a means of transforming the Niger Valley into a cotton belt, and later promoted as the heart of a French West African granary, the scheme never attained more than a tiny fraction of its presumed agricultural potential. Its construction and exploitation required the forced uprooting of tens of thousands of Africans. It absorbed a large portion of scarce colonial revenues until after the Second World War and generated no profits. During the inter-war period, the Office du Niger gradually acquired the de facto status of a state within the State, with Emile Bélime at its head. When the scheme was finally recognized as an economic and humanitarian failure in 1945, colonial authorities endeavoured to eliminate its worst shortcomings and give it a new identity as a prototype of economic and technical assistance to an underdeveloped area. After 1961, Malian leaders felt that the scheme could be used as a pilot project for agricultural development in the new republlc, and the scheme's existence has dictated the course of Malian agricultural policy ever since.
Le projet d'irrigation de l'Office du Niger, situé dans le delta intérieur du Niger au Mali, est né d'une proposition très insuffisante mais grandiose conçue en 1920 par un ingénieur des Travaux Publics Coloniaux, Émile Bélime. Conçu à l'origine comme un moyen de transformer la Vallée du Niger en une vaste plantation de coton, et envisagé par la suite comme le grenier central de l'Afrique Occidentale, ce projet n'a jamais atteint qu'une petite partie de son potentiel agricole espéré. Sa réalisation et sa mise en exploitation on nécessité le déracinement par contrainte de dizaines de milliers d'Africains. Même après la deuxième guerre mondiale, le projet a absorbé encore une grande partie des revenus coloniaux, déjà limités, mais il n'a généré aucun revenu. Pendant l'entre-deux-guerres, l'Office du Niger a acqui petit à petit le statut de facto d'un état dans l'État, dirigé par Émile Bélime. En 1945, quand le projet a été finalement reconnu comme une échec sur le plan économique et humanitaire, les autorités coloniales ont essayé de corriger les erreurs les plus graves et lui ont accordé le nouveau statu de prototype pour d'autres projets d'assistance économique et technique aux régions sous-développées. En 1961, le Gouvernement du Mali, qui avait récemment accédé à l'indépendance, pensait en faire un projet pilote pour le développement agricole du pays. Sa réalisation détermine encore aujourd'hui la politique agricole du Mali. fr

Abstract:
The research I’ve been carrying on sets its main issue on the link between irrigation projects and the territorial outputs in Sahelian-Sudanese region, focusing particularly on the research question about how the territory can be created by the projects themselves and when this process could be identified with a local development process. This paper focuses on two peculiar case studies, as the biggest irrigation projects in the considerated area: Gezira Project in Sudan and Office du Niger in Mali; both present interesting features to pursue a comparative study about their own territorial evolution along with the hydraulic territorialization and the new territoriality. After two research missions on the field, it has been possible to have a complete analysis of the social dynamics on the two project territories, to better understand the processes that have been implemented along with the territorialization and territoriality issues. In the final part of the paper the theoretical framework and the territorial outputs are linked, to better analyze the territorialization process according to the territorial sustainability (in which can be found the economic, social, political and environmental one).
La ricerca svolta ha posto il suo focus principale sul legame tra i progetti irrigui e il territorio nell’area Saheliano-Sudanese, e nello specifico sul capire quanto i progetti irrigui abbiano creato territorio e quanto questo possa effettivamente portare ad una creazione di processi di sviluppo locale nell’area considerata,. Per la stesura della tesi sono stati scelti come casi studio due grandi progetti irrigui dell’area Saheliano-Sudanese, il Progetto Gezira in Sudan e l’Office du Niger in Mali; entrambi progetti molto estesi, presentano caratteristiche interessanti per uno studio comparativo dell’evoluzione del territorio inserita all’interno del processo di territorializzazione idraulica. Dopo aver messo a fuoco i concetti fondamentali necessari per affrontare un’analisi completa delle dinamiche territoriali, si è potuto svolgere due brevi missioni sul campo nei mesi di dicembre 2010 in Sudan e in novembre-dicembre 2011 in Mali. Lo scopo delle missioni è stato quello di avere una mappatura più dettagliata delle dinamiche attoriali sul territorio in corso in questo momento, capirne i processi che hanno portato allo stato attuale delle cose e analizzarne le caratteristiche secondo gli apporti teorici della territorializzazione e della territorialità. È nella parte finale della trattazione che si mettono in relazione il quadro teorico e le nuove territorialità dell’Office du Niger e del Progetto Gezira, analizzando i risultati territoriali del processo di territorializzazione idraulica secondo i paradigmi della sostenibilità territoriale (che si articola in economica, sociale, politica e ambientale).

Abstract:
L'Office du Niger est depuis sa création en 1932 la premiere entreprise agro-industrielle du Mali. Il a eu pour objectifs de produire du coton, du riz et du sucre, d'être un point focal de modernisation technique et le creuset, d'une vaste expérimentation sociale. L'entreprise n'a jamais été rentable, sa productivité mesurée en terme de rendement est restée constante. Ces résultats s'expliquent principalement par des facteurs socio-économiques. L'exploitation des terres repose en effet àl'office sur un paysannat africain non propriétaire des terres qui n'a jamais été motivé pour l'intensification et la production
L'office du niger is since its creation in 1932 the largest agricultural company in mali. Its main aim was to produce cotton rice and sugar, to be focus of technical modernisation and the center of a large cosial experimentation. The company has never got any profit, its productivity just remained the same for many years this was mainly the consequence of economic factors. The farming of land was mainly done by african peasants who were not the owners of the land, and who were not motivated to intensify their production

Abstract:
Wasser erweist sich immer mehr als eine der kostbarsten und zukünftig knappsten Ressourcen auf unserem Planeten. Effizienter Umgang mit dieser Ressource ist deshalb auch in Großbewässerungsgebieten weltweit zu einer obersten Priorität geworden. Dabei spielt verstärkte Mitbestimmung und Partizipation der lokalen Bevölkerung erwiesenerweise eine wichtige Rolle. In einer viermonatigen Feldstudie wurden im Bewässerungsgebiet Office du Niger, Mali, in zwei Dörfern die örtlichen „Bauernorganisationen zum Unterhalt des tertiären Bewässerungssystems“ evaluiert. Welchen Nutzen und welche Erfolge können sie vorweisen? Wo liegen Probleme in Umsetzung und Akzeptanz der lokalen Organisationsstrukturen? Die vorliegende Arbeit stellt umfassend die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen bäuerlicher Selbstorganisation zum nachhaltigen Kanalunterhalt in der Forschungsregion dar, ergründet die vorliegenden Problemfaktoren und zeigt Schritte zur Überwindung derselbigen auf.

Abstract:
Pour des raisons techniques et historiques, les périmètres irrigués sahéliens constituent des entités très normatives, au sein desquelles il y a peu de place pour l'initiative individuelle. Malgré cela, les modèles techniques proposés, uniquement orientés vers la riziculture, ont eu beaucoup de mal à s'imposer. Le modèle intensif conseillé dans le cadre de l'Office du Niger par le projet Retail est performant et bien adapté aux conditions physiques du milieu. Il a pourtant été adopté par les paysans selon des modalités variées.

Cette diversité des réponses nous a conduit à nous interroger sur la diversité des fonctionnements des exploitations agricoles. Celle-ci a été analysée dans une démarche "systèmes de production" prenant en compte aussi bien le riz que les activités non-rizicoles, mais aussi dans une démarche de "recherche-développement" associant étroitement les cadres du développement aux travaux entrepris.

La typologie élaborée met en évidence l'importance des composantes non rizicoles des systèmes de production dans le fonctionnement global de ceux-ci, mais aussi la sensibilité des exploitations de l'Office du Niger aux aléas extérieurs. Les suivis de parcelles effectués montrent que cette diversité des fonctionnements a des conséquences sur la conduite des rizières, puisque l'on retrouve à ce niveau une assez forte variabilité des pratiques culturales. A partir de là, des recherches plus techniques ont été entreprises pour répondre aux problèmes identifiés, avec le souci d'élaborer des références susceptibles de valoriser la diversité des exploitations agricoles et utilisables facilement par des conseillers agricoles.

La typologie n'est pas restée un outil de description de la réalité, elle a pu être utilisée pour définir des actions prenant en compte la diversité des exploitations. Pour les recherches techniques, elle a conduit à mettre l'accent sur la mise au point de modèles d'intensification différenciés, plus souples. Pour le conseil technique rizicole, elle a permis de moduler les conseils en fonction des objectifs et des contraintes des différents types d'exploitations. Elle a aussi permis, en montrant l'importance des activités non-rizicoles dans le fonctionnement de certains types d'exploitations, de développer un conseil sur le maraîchage et l'élevage, auparavant négligés. Enfin, elle fournit aux décideurs politiques et financiers des éléments sur les mesures à prendre en matière de réhabilitation des casiers, de réattribution foncière, d'aménagement de l'espace, d'intégration sociale et d'organisation des producteurs.

Full text
Abstract:
Ces 10 dernières années ont été marquée à l'Office du Niger par une augmentation spectaculaire des superficies aménagées et cultivées en contre-saison qui ont engendré un accroissement de la demande en eau en période d'étiage du fleuve. Du fait des caractéristiques structurelles du réseau et de pratiques de gestion peu performantes induisant des pertes substantielles d'eau par infiltration, la nappe phréatique est aujourd'hui quasi sub-affleurante avec toutes ses conséquences néfastes sur les facteurs de productions. L'objectif de ce travail est de mieux comprendre et de quantifier les dynamiques engendrées par les cultures de contre-saison, auxquelles il est communément reproché d'être surconsommatrices de la ressource en eau et de favoriser des conditions favorables à la dégradation de sols par alcalinisation. Traduit en termes scientifiques, l'objectif est de développer un modèle permettant d'évaluer l'impact des modes de gestion des cultures de contre-saison sur les performances de l'irrigation et sur la dynamique de la nappe phréatique. La démarche a consisté à collecter et analyser les données secondaires disponibles, mettre en place un dispositif d'enquête et de suivis de terrain sur la base desquels a été développée une modélisation des performances de l'irrigation et de la dynamique d'évolution des caractéristiques la nappe phréatique. L'analyse des données secondaires descriptives de l'évolution des systèmes de culture de contre saison à l'Office du Niger montre un accroissement notoire des superficies cultivées en contre-saison induisant une disparition du schéma de mise en valeur initialement prévu lors de la conception des aménagements. La recherche d'amélioration de leur autosuffisance alimentaire et de leurs revenus, sont les principaux déterminants de cette évolution des pratiques. Les données secondaires descriptives de la gestion de l'eau montrent que si cette dynamique a eu pour conséquence une augmentation importante du taux de prélèvement des eaux du fleuve Niger, elle a induit une réduction de moitié des vii apports par hectare cultivés en contre saison sous l'effet d'une amélioration de l'efficience de transport qui structurellement tend à s'améliorer en fonction de l'accroissement des superficies irriguées. Les résultats des études de terrain montrent qu'à l'échelle d'un arroseur cultivé en riz, le type de sol est le principal facteur explicatif de la variabilité des apports d'eau (en moyenne 15 000 m3/ha). L'efficience moyenne de l'irrigation de l'arroseur à la parcelle, bien que meilleure qu'en hivernage, reste faible (65%) ; elle croit au cours du cycle de 20 à 85% avec le taux de repiquage. Si les pertes dans le réseau de drainage restent généralement faibles (12%), les épandages systématiques d'eau sur les surfaces non encore repiquées en début de campagne sont la principale cause explicative de la valeur de l'efficience de l'irrigation et représentent de l'ordre 25% de la lame d'eau contribuant à la recharge de la nappe phréatique par hectare rizicultivé (200 mm). Leur réduction par une meilleure maîtrise de l'irrigation diminuerait d'autant contribution de la riziculture de contre-saison au soutien de la nappe. La situation du maraîchage est beaucoup plus critique : les apports par hectares en tête de partiteur (14 500 m3/ha) ne sont pas statistiquement différents de ceux du riz alors que les besoins en eau sont deux fois plus faibles. L'analyse des données du suivi de la nappe entre 1995 et 2006 à l'échelle du Kala inférieur confirme la continuité entre nappe de surface, alluviale et continentale et montre que le niveau moyen piézométrique de la nappe à l'aplomb des périmètres du Kala inférieur, augmentation de son volume et sommes des surfaces cultivées en saison des pluies et saison sèche sont significativement corrélés malgré la décroissance graduelle du niveau piézométrique de la nappe à mesure qu'on s'éloigne des périmètres. Ces constatations ont permis de modéliser, sur la base d'un bilan en eau, l'impact combiné des cultures de contre-saison et d'hivernage sur la dynamique de la nappe phréatique. Cette modélisation tend à montrer que les cultures de contre saison n'expliqueraient que de l'ordre de 25% de l'augmentation du volume de la nappe entre 2001 et 2006; le reste est à attribuer à l'irrigation des cultures d'hivernage. Cette remontée de la nappe et la continuité entre nappe de surface et nappe régionale confirmée tendent à diminuer la drainabilité naturelle des zones cultivées particulièrement en contre saison et contribuent à expliquer le faible battement de la nappe dans ces zones entrainant un engorgement pratiquement continu des sols qui contraint les conditions d'exploitation et augmente les risques d'apparition de phénomène d'alcalinisation. Compte tenu des approches utilisées basées sur des bilans d'eau et des hypothèses de représentativité supposées, les processus biophysiques des tendances que cette étude a permis d'identifier, mériteraient d'être confirmés. La poursuite de campagnes périodiques de suivi de la nappe, une caractérisation de ses propriétés hydrodynamiques ainsi que le développement de la modélisation hydrogéologique de son fonctionnement devraient être envisagés face aux enjeux qu'elle représente en termes de contraintes à la mise en valeur agricole et de risques environnementaux mais aussi de possible exploitation des ressources en eau souterraines pour la double culture.

Abstract:
The distribution and privatization channels of the wealth from Niger Delta’s oil and gas resources are multiple. The main channels excessively favor mainly office holders, international entrepreneurs and their contractors. The rest of the population, or the less favored majority will have to cut their share of the wealth via the alternative channels which may include violent insurgencies. This work focuses on one of these alternative channels, where an Igbo community creatively sustain their access to the oil wealth. An ethnographic study of Egbema, shows that the local population modify their traditional practices to sustain the flow of the oil wealth. This modifying capacity was manifest when they creatively transformed a fishing festival that was traditionally celebrated exclusively, into a public fish bazaar. This was done to keep hold of the money received as compensation for the land expropriated for oil extraction by Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC). This has implications for corporate governance, especially with regard to the relationship between companies and other stakeholders.

Abstract:
How could the village of Dlonguébougou (DBG), which boasted abundant land in 1980, find itself land scarce just 25 years later? The answer lies in part with a tripling of the village population, the widespread use of oxen-drawn plough teams, and continued extensive patterns of farming. But, by far, the largest factor has been the arrival of many hundred incoming farmers from farther south, seeking land. Aerial photos and satellite images show the first wave in the late 1980s, from villages badly affected by bird damage to cereal crops, given their proximity to the irrigated lands of the Office du Niger, and the second wave unleashed by the establishment of N-Sukala, a sugar cane plantation 40 km to the southeast of DBG. Hundreds of families have lost their farmland to this irrigation scheme, and have migrated to seek land in neighbouring villages like DBG, putting further pressure on land.

Abstract Walter White stopped in at the NAACP offices on the afternoon of March 21, 1955. He had just returned from a one-month vacation in the Caribbean where he had been recovering from a second heart attack. Appearing to be in top form and delighted to be back in the thick of things, he decided to return to work before the planned date of April r. Unfortunately, this would be his last day at the NAACP. Three hours after he left his office, he died of a heart attack at home in New York City. Roy Wilkins wrote that it was so typical of him to stop by the office before going home to die. Only an act of God could stop White, the relentless civil rights crusader.1 When White joined the staff of the NAACP in 1918 as assistant secretary, he volunteered to undertake a dangerous assignment. He used his deceptive appearance to pass for white in order to gain information for the NAACP in its quest to publicize the facts of the reprehensible crime of lynching. As NAACP investigator, White often mingled with the perpetrators of the crime. Talking with them as a white man, he often cheered their heinous acts to appear sincere. Hearing these executioners boasting about riddling “nigger wenches” with bullets until they stopped moaning, or witnessing the charred body parts of lynching victims passed around for souvenirs, he would become nauseated.

Abstract The author of these lines, Paul Leroy-Beaulieu, was the most prominent economist of the pro-colonial lobby and the (unsuccessful) political rival of Paul Vigné d’Octon for the constituency of Clermont l’Hérault. In this highly fanciful dream of systematic development of the Sahara, apparently rich with untapped resources and water, he went as far as describing the River Niger as the French Nile. To support his vision of potential wealth, he systematically exaggerated the writings of army officers and missionaries who were often equally enthusiastic about the lands they had conquered for the empire. Like many others he then used these assertions to campaign for the expansion of the new colonies. Unverifiable claims established an echoing circle of fancy which ran continuously between the colonial lobbyist and the soldiers, the conquerors and their Parisian backers.

Abstract:
Participatory solutions with triple-win outcomes are the thrust of contemporary community development research and practices. However, active participation and collaboration of diverse stakeholders in collective processes like community development does not just happen; it requires a facilitator with the requisite tools and strategies. Given its unparalleled ability to support facilitator-moderated interactive and collaborative systems, online social networks are now at the frontiers of communication for development research and practices. This chapter presents social networking strategies for realizing participatory community development with triple-win outcomes in the developing countries. The thrust of the strategies is the formation of online community hub through the synergy of online and offline social networking, community network weaving, and use of diverse facilitated volunteered community information and service delivery systems. Sample implementation strategy is presented to demonstrate how to actualize the community informatics social networking technology through a pilot project to be conducted in selected communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria.

Abstract:
The breaking of the German teleprinter cipher that led to the construction of the Colossus computer was the culmination of a series of triumphs for British codebreakers. British interception of other countries’ radio communications had begun in earnest during the First World War. The War Office ‘censored’ diplomatic communications passing through the hands of the international telegraph companies, setting up a codebreaking operation to decipher the secret messages. The British Army intercepted German military wireless communications with a great deal of success. E. W. B. Gill, one of the army officers involved in decoding the messages, recalled that ‘the orderly Teutonic mind was especially suited for devising schemes which any child could unravel’. One of the most notable successes for the British cryptanalysts came in December 1916 when the commander of the German Middle-East signals operation sent a drunken message to all his operators wishing them a Merry Christmas. With little other activity taking place over the Christmas period, the same isolated and clearly identical message was sent out in six different codes, only one of which, until this point, the British had managed to break. The army codebreaking operation became known as MI1b and was commanded by Major Malcolm Hay, a noted historian and eminent academic. It enjoyed a somewhat fractious relationship with its junior counterpart in the Admiralty, formally the Naval Intelligence Department 25 (NID25) but much better known as Room 40, after the office in the Old Admiralty Buildings in Whitehall that it occupied. The navy codebreaking organisation had an even more successful war than MI1b, recruiting a number of the future employees of Britain’s Second World War codebreaking centre at Bletchley Park, including Dillwyn ‘Dilly’ Knox, Frank Birch, Nigel de Grey, and Alastair Denniston, who by the end of the war was head of Room 40. Among the many successes of the Royal Navy codebreakers was the breaking of the Zimmermann telegram, which showed that Germany had asked Mexico to join an alliance against the United States, offering Mexico’s ‘lost territory’ in Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona in return, and brought the United States into the war.

Abstract:
Abstract A brutal triple murder took place near Hugo, Oklahoma, on New Year’s Eve 1939. A white man, his wife, and their four-year-old son were shot, and their bodies were hacked with an axe and then burned. W. D. Lyons, a black man, was arrested several days later. According to the NAACP’s account of what happened, prior to the arrest of Lyons, a white escapee from the state chain gang had confessed to the murders. But the governor’s office, fearful of the political consequences of election-year allegations that lax supervision of the chain gang had resulted in a triple murder, decided to frame a black man. The governor sent a special investigator to Hugo. According to boastful statements the investigator made to several white witnesses, he assaulted Lyons for several hours with his “nigger beater” (a blackjack). He also made Lyons hold on his lap a pan containing the victims’ bones. Many local whites, not to mention Lyons’s lawyers, were convinced that Lyons was innocent. At the trial, which the judge called a “gala” event for the community, lawyers from the NAACP and the ACLU sowed enough doubts about Lyons’s guilt that the all-white jury, after several hours of deliberation, sentenced him to life imprisonment rather than death.

Abstract:
Abstract There is a new drive on well abandonment in Nigeria. Numerous technical challenges arise while safely delivering abandonment wells often due to missing & inaccurate historical data considering that some of the wells were drilled over 60 years ago. This challenge alone makes it an easy oversight from most rig and office-based teams to focus more on the technical challenges while losing sight of an equally important & often understated factor namely non-technical issues. The well objective of decommissioning/abandonment is to install permanent barriers to effectively isolate the hydrocarbon bearing reservoirs from the freshwater reservoirs and the surface in an environmentally safe manner and restore the surface location as close as possible to its original state. What these objectives imply is that benefits (local employment during well intervention, freedom to operate dues and government entitlements as producing communities) are no longer accessible to the local host communities which bring forth a dimension that often times acts as a spanner in the works of efficient & effective abandonment operations. This paper will address in detail the challenges encountered during a recent well abandonment campaign spanning 5 wells in the same calendar year, how the team effectively managed the non-technical issues and continuously improved from high NPT recorded in the 1st well to less than 10% at the end of the campaign without any safety incident. In this new era of focused abandonment in the Nigeria oil industry empowered by recent PIB signed into law, the knowledge and learnings from this project will help other operators who will undergo mandatory abandonment of wells in near & far future to appreciate and plan for these challenges.

Abstract:
Quasiment improvisé par une équipe d’amateurs largement dépassée par les évènements, le film Emmanuelle (1974) de Just Jaeckin est aussi une imposture en ce qui concerne la représentation des personnages féminins – mystification d’autant plus criante que son succès planétaire inédit lui permet, paradoxalement, de passer inaperçue. Car le premier soft porn français, numéro 1 au box-office de l’année 1974 en France (avec presque 9 millions d’entrées), recèle bien des ambiguïtés, à commencer par celle de son message. S’il a véhiculé un fantasme planétaire d’une femme libérée, le film apparaît cependant, à y regarder de plus près, comme une vaste entreprise de réappropriation machiste d’une sexualité féminine désormais livrée à la lumière du jour. Dans cet article, nous nous proposons de revenir sur ce film qui a marqué son époque pour devenir symbole même de la révolution sexuelle, mais qui a laissé inaperçu le thème du harcèlement. Emmanuelle reste un cas d’école d’un double discours qui prend comme appât le prétexte de la libération des femmes pour pourtant nier cette dernière dans le film. La « libération » du personnage féminin menée sous la houlette de mentors masculins est ainsi marquée par la violence et l’humiliation, pour le bon plaisir du public de l’époque.
