    Jidada heißt das Land. Ein Land, bevölkert von vermenschlichten Tieren, beherrscht vom stärksten unter ihnen, seit mehr als vierzig Jahren. Einst brachte er die Unabhängigkeit auf den afrikanischen Kontinent, zerschlug die Fesseln der Geschichte, bloß um ihnen prompt andere anzulegen. Doch nun mehren sich die Zeichen, dass seine Kräfte schwinden. Wer ihn reden hört, wer das Alte Pferd in die Sonne blinzeln sieht, ihn und seinen ganzen verrotteten Apparat, der weiß: seine Tage sind gezählt. In Jidada kehrt jetzt Hoffnung ein, auf eine gerechte Zukunft, auf Wohlstand und Veränderung, endlich ein besseres Leben für uns alle! Aber das Regime wehrt sich mit Waffen härter als Träume, schärfer als Fantasie, tödlicher als blanke Lebensfreude, bis eine Heimkehrerin aus dem Exil alles verändert.Glory ist die brillante Verwandlung unserer Gegenwart. In einer Sprache, die singt und tanzt und springt und schreit, erzählt NoViolet Bulawayo von einer Gemeinschaft im Kampf gegen die Repression. Und fördert beides zutage: Glanz und Schönheit, Horror und Schmerz am Grund der menschlichen Freiheit.

    Wie kommt es, dass die katholischen und protestantischen Kirchen, welche schon in den 1960er Jahren eine nachhaltige Entwicklung in den Ländern des Südens gefordert hatten, heute vorwiegend die technokratischen Entwicklungspläne der dortigen Regierungen unterstützen? Der vorliegende Sonderband ergründet anhand von theologischen, historischen und ethnographischen Studien dieses scheinbare Paradox. Sie geben Einblicke in die theologischen Grundlagen der kirchlichen Entwicklungspolitik und zeigen auf, wie auf deren Grundlage die Resolutionen des zweiten Vaticanums und des Weltkirchenrats Ende der 1960er Jahre Alternativen zur modernistischen, neokolonialen Entwicklung forderten. Mehrere Beiträge zu Indonesien heben die Spannungen zwischen den entwicklungspolitischen Überzeugungen einzelner kirchlicher Akteure und den staatlich eng kontrollierten Kirchen hervor. Vor diesem Hintergrund wird deutlich, wie sehr das weltliche Engagement der Kirchen von realpolitischen Zwängen geprägt wird.Mit Beiträgen von Heinzpeter Znoj, Sabine Zurschmitten, Cyprianus Jehan Paju Dale, Claudia Hoffmann, Noëmi Rui, Barbara Miller, Maria Hughes How is it that the Catholic and Protestant churches, which had already demanded sustainable development in the countries of the South in the 1960s, today predominantly support the technocratic development plans of the governments there? This special volume explores this apparent paradox through theological, historical and ethnographic studies. They provide insights into the theological foundations of church development policy and show how on its basis the resolutions of the Second Vatican Council and the World Council of Churches at the end of the 1960s demanded alternatives to modernist, neo-colonial development. Several contributions on Indonesia highlight the tensions between the development policy convictions of individual church actors and the closely state-controlled churches. Against this background it becomes clear to what extent the secular commitment of the churches is marked by real political constraints.With contributions by Heinzpeter Znoj, Sabine Zurschmitten, Cyprianus Jehan Paju Dale, Claudia Hoffmann, Noëmi Rui, Barbara Miller, Maria Hughes

In Under The Steel Yoke I hear the wailing of fellow citizens as leadership subversion takes root. When servants become masters- that is a subversion, waves of despair threaten our people. I attempt to reflect the resilience of fellow Zimbabweans as we fight on for survival, hope refuses to die. The ideals of the true liberators prick our collective conscience. These poems are meant to provoke debate about nation building and they are an assertion that there can never be peace without justice. These poems are the voices heard on the streets, in pubs, factories, churches, homes and wherever our people irk a living. These voices yearn for a glorious future

"The pastor preach, the congregates bleach....here the artist is called to question the essence of morality in the wake of moral decadence. When the people speak and the superiors they speak to, take a dive deep into the questionable pools, the people speak to question, here the artist is called to sing. When the sun denies us the lustre at anticipated times, when the moon submits to darkness before we see the road awaiting us...we paint the pictures to depict the terrain and ask a question or plenty. When the land we have cannot make a home for us.... Unfathomably so, everybody wants to know how i lost the brighter shades of my skin colour to the political machinations of the Addis Ababa parliament. Verily I say; those are the Shades of Black for you."--

    An ambitious look at the African novel and its connections to African philosophy in the twentieth and twenty-first centuriesThe African Novel of Ideas focuses on the role of the philosophical novel and the place of philosophy more broadly in the intellectual life of the African continent, from the early twentieth century to today. Examining works from the Gold Coast, South Africa, Uganda, and Zimbabwe, and tracing how such writers as J. E. Casely Hayford, Imraan Coovadia, Tendai Huchu, Jennifer Nansubuga Makumbi, and Stanlake Samkange reconcile deep contemplation with their social situations, Jeanne-Marie Jackson offers a new way of reading and understanding African literature.Jackson begins with Fante anticolonial worldliness in prenationalist Ghana, moves through efforts to systematize Shona philosophy in 1970s Zimbabwe, looks at the Ugandan novel Kintu as a treatise on pluralistic rationality, and arrives at the treatment of “philosophical suicide” by current southern African writers. As Jackson charts philosophy's evolution from a dominant to marginal presence in African literary discourse across the past hundred years, she assesses the push and pull of subjective experience and abstract thought.The first major transnational exploration of African literature in conversation with philosophy, The African Novel of Ideas redefines the place of the African experience within literary history
