Abstract:

Maintes questions surgissent de l’analyse de la langue française dans la presse des pays francophones, en particulier de l’Afrique subsaharienne. Si dans certains cas on assiste à des créations inattendues ou à des changements révolutionnaires, dans d’autres cas on atteste une désinvolture dont les motivations sont difficiles à cerner. Il s’agit alors d’étudier la portée de cette langue seconde, et toujours officielle, pour en saisir l’évolution dans des contextes où elle se trouve à co-exister avec des langues ethniques aux aspects multiples et variés. Après avoir consacré une étude à la presse ivoirienne et une autre à la presse togolaise, nous voudrions analyser ici les articles des journaux burkinabè en ce qui concerne tant le lexique que la morpho-syntaxe. Ainsi, essayerons-nous de vérifier quelles sont les tendances qui s’imposent à l’heure actuelle non seulement à l’intérieur de ce domaine particulier, mais également par rapport aux recherches précédentes. Ce projet ne serait alors qu’une excuse ultérieure pour attester la vitalité et la richesse de la langue française en milieu francophone.

Abstract:

The first edition of Daniel McFarland's Historical dictionary of Upper Volta (Metuchen, N.J. and London, Scarecrow Press, 1978. 217 pp.) was published in 1978. From that time until the early 1990s, McFarland updated many of the entries and collected new materials. Dut to family health considerations he felt unable to complete the second edition. I agreed to undertake that project in 1995 with complete access to his collected material. That volume was published in 1998: Daniel Miles McFarland and Lawrence A. Rupley Historical dictionary of Burkina Faso [fomer Upper Volta (Haute Volta)] 2nd ed. Lanham, MD, Scarecrow Press, 1998. Ixxvii, 279 pp. This article is an outgrowth of that work. Following some general background on the country, this article reviews a sampling of the published literature concerning Upper Volta/Burkina Faso. Where citations are not included in the text, they can be found in the bibliography.

Abstract:

Media and Cultural Imperialism in Burkina Faso The various kinds of information released in the press and other media are cultural products that partake in the shaping of citizens' opinions and minds. Radio and television in particular present their audiences in Burkina Faso with various life-styles through diverse entertainment programmes which have grown popular among the urban population. These are fertile fields for cultural imperialism in the country. In the on-going process of internationalization of culture facilitated by the new communication technology, the cultural identity of Africans is increasingly threatened. This phenomenon is the result of adverse political and economic conditions with significant cultural consequences. In the long run, these cultural consequences will lead to the marginalization of Africa on the international scene and its increased dependence on the western powers.

Abstract:

Several distinctive points characterize the second stage under analyses: the expansion of new armed alliances - Jamā’at Nuṣrat al Islām wal Muslimīn (JNIM) and Islamic State of the Greater Sahara (ISGS); the rise of resistance movement; the growth of inter- and intra-communal tensions. Conflicts embraced the regions of Central Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso, populated predominantly by ethnic Fulani. Armed jihadi groups spread alarmingly in the northern border zones of Benin, Côte d’Ivoire and Western Nigeria. Trying to stop destabilization, Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso harshly and unduly pressed local population (predominantly the cattle-breeder Fulani) instead of mounting preventive measures. Indiscriminating state military campaigns further provoked radicalisation of ethno-militias aggravating struggle for meager resources, retaliatory actions and ethnic cleansing. The net result of the government’s policies has been inflation of its legitimacy in the Fulani populated regions of Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso. It became the best situation for JNIM and ISGS to recruit. In contrast with the previous stage, JNIM and ISGS are deeply rooted in local clan-cast structures and enjoy more support from wider population. For some years theу have effectively managed access to pastures and water resources, resolve communal disputes and protect willing pastoralists, hunters, traders and peasants from bandits and corrupt state officials. Drivers and deep causes of the situation cannot be explained from the perspective of ‘common enemy’ in the ‘war on terror’ - implicit impetus of many anti-terror studies and related international laws, both in dire need of revaluation.

Abstract:

AbstractThis article examines how and why smallholder peasants mobilize for collective action to put forward their claims. Taking the resistance by cotton farmers in Burkina Faso as a case study, it demonstrates that institutions of neoliberal governance – which are presented by their proponents as making governance more “effective” by improving the participation of various public and private stakeholders in different degrees – nevertheless fail to represent the interests of the large population of agrarian poor. In the 2010s, the cotton sector in Burkina Faso became a field of contention, with smallholder cotton producers mobilizing on a massive scale to take collective action. It is argued that the mobilization of cotton farmers can be explained through the effects of the sector's liberalization. Economic liberalization, which has been promoted by the World Bank since the mid-1990s, has changed the institutional setting of the sector and has significantly impacted the ways and means of collective claim-making available to farmers. Building on primary data (qualitative interviews, focus group discussions, observations) collected during several months of field research between 2018 and 2020, and analyses of press reports and a variety of documents, recent protests by cotton farmers are examined and related to these liberalization policies.

Abstract:

Waste management and recycling is major problem in our developing countries for several reasons, including population growth. In Burkina Faso, various techniques for treating this garbage exist and among them, we can cite incineration. Incineration is a heat treatment of garbage that reduces the volume of the latter. This work relates to the experimental study of the incineration of paper waste from the incinerator of the University Press of Ouagadougou. The results of this study show that this device is very useful in that it allows the incineration of paper garbage produced by the printing press. It, therefore, has an environmental advantage because its use promotes better management of paper waste.

Abstract:

Few technologies have been as misused as cameras in the encounter with the "other." Photography has provided travelers, journalists, and, indeed, anthropologists with a tool to bring distant cultures and landscapes closer to home audiences. Entailing a process of selective framing and focusing, it has enabled practitioners to construct views of "exotic" people and worlds, building upon preconceived ideas about what they are like and how they differ from us, by stressing either the "picturesque" or the "pathetic" according to what feelings the images were meant to arouse. These are often shaped by the larger context of ideology and politics surrounding our relationship with such groups, as Jane Collins and Catherine Lutz (Reading National Geographic. University of Chicago Press, Chicago, 1993) show in their seminal and spirited critique of the National Geographic. But are reifying or alienating the subject inherent effects of photographic practice? Not necessarily. Parallel to conventional photography that uses indigenous people as mere objects of representation, there have been some notable efforts by visual anthropologists and communication specialists to directly involve minorities and marginal populations in producing images of themselves, their social and physical landscapes, and in using photography for bolstering their status and their claims in society.

Abstract:

Im Zuge der Nahrungsmittelpreiskrise 2008 fanden in vielen Städten weltweit und insbesondere in Afrika Hungeraufstände statt. Der Beitrag argumentiert, dass solche Aufstände häufig als spontan und gewaltsam dargestellt werden – nicht nur von „westlichen“ Medien und staatlichen Akteuren, sondern auch von oppositionellen Gruppen in den jeweiligen Ländern selbst. Der Artikel analysiert den Fall Burkina Fasos, wo Gewerkschaften und Bewegungsorganisationen im Anschluss an die Hungeraufstände zu umfangreichen Protesten gegen hohe Nahrungsmittelpreise mobilisierten. Diese Proteste und die Hungeraufstände unterschieden sich hinsichtlich der beteiligten sozialen Gruppen und der eingesetzten Protestrepertoires. Die etablierten oppositionellen Gruppen nutzten die riots als diskursiven Bezugspunkt, um ihre Strategien und Forderungen zu legitimieren und voranzubringen.

Abstract:

Abstract HIV infection is associated with an increased risk of Non-Hodgkin’s B cell lymphoma (AIDS-NHL). AIDS-NHL may arise, in part, because the patients may be immunocompromised and tumor escape takes place. The standard treatment for NHL is chemotherapy, however, many patients become refractory to such treatments. Alternative treatment modalities include immunotherapy, though, even in the presence of an effective anti-tumor response, the tumor may develop mechanisms of resistance to immune-mediated cytotoxicity (e.g., Fas-ligand, TRAIL) and resistance to apoptosis. We have shown that overexpression of the transcription factor Yin-Yang 1 (YY1) is involved in the regulation of tumor cell resistance to FasL-induced apoptosis. The direct role of YY1 was demonstrated in cells transfected with siRNA YY1 which were sensitized to Fas-induced apoptosis (Vega, et al., 2005, Journal of Immunology (In Press)). In addition, we have also shown that overexpression of YY1 and X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) regulate the resistance of tumor cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis (Ng and Bonavida, 2002, Molecular Cancer Therapeutics1:1051–1058, Huerta-Yepez, et al., 2004, Oncogene23:4993–5003). Hence, we hypothesized that one mechanism of AIDS-NHL immune escape may be due to overexpression of YY1 and XIAP. Tissue arrays containing formalin fixed, paraffin embedded sections from AIDS lymphoma were obtained from the AIDS and Cancer Specimen Resource (ACSR) of the National Cancer Institute (NCI). These arrays consisted of 21 Burkitt, 29 Large Cell Lymphoma, and 6 Small Cell Lymphoma. Immunohistochemistry was performed for the expression of YY1, and XIAP. The arrays were scored and both the percent of positive cells and the intensity were recorded and the data were analyzed statistically. The findings reveal that YY1 and XIAP were overexpressed in the majority of the AIDS-NHL patient specimens. In addition, there was a significant correlation between YY1 and XIAP expression in all 3 types of lymphoma. These studies and studies based on in vitro findings with AIDS-NHL cell lines suggest that overexpression of YY1 and XIAP may be involved in the pathogenesis of AIDS-NHL and are potential markers for tumor unresponsiveness to immune-mediated cytotoxic therapies. Furthermore, inhibitors of YY1 and XIAP expression/activity may be targets for therapeutic intervention when combined with immunotherapy.

Abstract:

Cet article propose une réflexion sur les possibilités inédites qu’offre le numérique pour développer de nouvelles méthodes de recherche et de diffusion de données sur l’histoire de l’islam en Afrique de l’Ouest, ainsi que quelques considérations méthodologiques, technologiques et éthiques soulevées par de telles initiatives. Au centre de ces considérations se trouve la Collection Islam Burkina Faso. Ce projet de base de données numérique en libre accès, que j’ai lancé en 2021 et qui est hébergée par les bibliothèques George A. Smathers de l’Université de Floride (UF), contient actuellement plus de 2 500 documents d’archives, articles de la presse généraliste, publications islamiques sous diverses formes et photographies, en plus de 200 références bibliographiques liées à l’islam et aux musulmans du Burkina Faso (https://islam.domains.uflib.ufl.edu/s/bf-fr). Le texte propose également un bref état des lieux des humanités numériques dans le champ des études africanistes et plus spécifiquement sur l’islam.

Abstract:

The various kinds of information released in the press and other media are cultural products that partake in the shaping of citizens' opinions and minds. Radio and television in particular present their audiences in Burkina Faso with various life-styles through diverse entertainment programmes which have grown popular among the urban population. These are fertile fields for cultural imperialism in the country. In the on-going process of internationalization of culture facilitated by the new communication technology, the cultural identity of Africans is increasingly threatened. This phenomenon is the result of adverse political and economic conditions with significant cultural consequences. In the long run, these cultural consequences will lead to the marginalization of Africa on the international scene and its increased dependence on the western powers.Key Words: culture, imperialism, influence, information, media, uniformity.

Abstract:

In the course of the global food price crisis that began in late 2007, in dozens of cities worldwide, particularly in the global South, large numbers of people have come out into the streets and protested in spontaneous ‘food riots’, marches and strikes against price increases of 50 per cent or even more for cereals, cooking oil and other staple goods. This article analyses the case of ‘food riots’ and struggles against the high cost of living in Burkina Faso, one of the countries in sub- Saharan Africa that have experienced intense protests against high food prices since 2008. It is argued that protests against the high cost of living do not simply express despair of the hungry but are part of broader social struggles. Thus, they present at the same time part of specific struggles within the national context and resistance against the current global food regime.
