La intervención internacional en la resolución sostenible de los conflictos armados internos. Una revisión crítica
2022
La investigación versa sobre los mecanismos de paz derivados de la teoría liberal occidental de la paz, que la comunidad internacional aplica a los conflictos armados internos en África. Su balance mitigado pone en tela de juicio su eficacia real y su capacidad para poner fin a los conflictos de manera sostenible y construir la paz. Analizando tanto los casos de éxito como de fracaso, se intenta extraer las buenas o malas prácticas que producen dichos resultados, a partir del análisis crítico de las teorías objetivas que las sustentan, de forma que se infieran las buenas prácticas generalizables y los frecuentes errores a evitar, para una mayor eficacia. Emerge de los análisis que la interv…
Transmission processes of indigenous Pedi music
2017
There has been unsatisfactory integration of traditional music into education, despite the fact that the Ministry of Education advocates its use, stating that education should ‘preserve South Africa’s cultural practice; develop an appreciation for the practice of one’s culture; and develop a sense of respect for other people’s culture’. South Africa is in need of a music education philosophy that is culturally embedded, cognisant of the societal context in which it is to function, and informed by South African ideas and philosophy of life. This study entails sourcing the Ethnomusicological and Anthropological focus in musicology for purposes of providing a better understanding on music and …
The significance of student voice: female students’ interpretations of failure in Tanzanian secondary education
2014
Abstract: In Tanzania, the national examinations are used as the primary tools for selection and transition from lower to upper secondary education. Female students are more likely to fail in the national exams and to drop out from education. This article examines the perspectives of female students concerning their advancement in secondary education. Two sets of qualitative data, responses to a research questionnaire from 100 female lower secondary school students and follow-up interviews with seven mature students enrolled in a non-formal school who had failed in the national examinations, were analysed to identify critical issues influencing the educational advancement of female students…
Pluralismo e ordini normativi in Africa : Dal conflitto alla collaborazione
2017
L'articolo esamina l'evoluzione del fenomeno del pluralismo giuridico tentando di individuare come i differenti ordini normativi esistenti nel contesto africano possano passare da una fase di competizione ad una di collaborazione reciproca.
Pluralismo giuridico in Somalia : Trascorsi storici e sviluppi recenti
2014
La questione del pluralismo giuridico vede in Africa una delle sue manifestazioni più eclatanti. Malgrado l’annoso dibattito sul valore non meramente antropologico del pluralismo giuridico in Africa, la ricerca di soluzioni che possano portare ad un approccio più “operativo” del pluralismo stesso nei Paesi africani rimane uno dei temi più affascinanti da risolvere per gli studiosi del diritto africano. Al di là di mere dichiarazioni di principio, anche a livello costituzionale, il problema di come rendere il pluralismo giuridico formalmente operante rimane ancora irrisolta. Dal fenomeno pluralista non è esclusa, ovviamente, la Somalia. Qui il pluralismo giuridico assume aspetti del tutto pe…

Evolution of dry season low cloud cover over the Atlantic coast of Central Africa from diurnal to interannual scale
2022
Despite its bioclimatic importance, few studies have focused on the stratiform low-level cloud cover ofthe dry season (June-September) of the Atlantic coast of Central Africa. Using in-situ data documenting theperiod 1971-2019, we show that this cloud cover is underestimated by SAFNWC satellite observations andCMIP6 models. We identify three types of days: clear, cloudy at night and totally cloudy, the latterbeing more frequent on the coast and inland, to the windward of the Cristal and Chaillu Mountains. Onan interannual scale, temperature anomalies in the South Tropical Atlantic, the equatorial Pacific and theCongo Basin, by modulating the meridional and zonal circulation cells, influence…
Consistent phenological shifts in the making of a biodiversity hotspot: the Cape flora
2011
Abstract Background The best documented survival responses of organisms to past climate change on short (glacial-interglacial) timescales are distributional shifts. Despite ample evidence on such timescales for local adaptations of populations at specific sites, the long-term impacts of such changes on evolutionary significant units in response to past climatic change have been little documented. Here we use phylogenies to reconstruct changes in distribution and flowering ecology of the Cape flora - South Africa's biodiversity hotspot - through a period of past (Neogene and Quaternary) changes in the seasonality of rainfall over a timescale of several million years. Results Forty-three dist…
