The ASA Secretariat is pleased to report that despite the inevitable initial glitches the online membership system is servshying the ASA extremely well Members appreciate its ease of use and along with the new department email and designated teleshyphone extensions on the ASA website the online membership system is already contributing to increased efficiency at the Secretariat which consequently improves the Secretariats abilshyity to respond more effectively to ASA constituent needs If you have not already had the opportunity to do so please visit wwwafricanstudiesorg and click on the link to access the online membership system to update your personal information includshying your password and any address changes or to make Annual Meeting preregistration and subscription payments or endowshy J ment or other contributions

The Secretariat has noted that some members have left portions of the hard copy and electronic membership form blank The incomplete information has several repercussions For example membership data that is as complete as accurate and as current as possible will allow the ASA to better analyze its membership profile (eg regarding such demographics as age range and gender and members professional career paths areas of interest and language abilities) and thus undertake initiatives that support the memberships concerns and goals In addition the ASA provides membership data to the National Council of Area Studies Associations (NCASA) which consists of the ASA the American Association for the Advancement of Slavic Studies the Association for Asian Studies the Latin American Studies Association and the Middle East Studies Association and to the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) which is comprised of sixty-seven scholarly organizashytions with missions that encompass a variety of different professions disciplines geographic locations and time periods The ASA maintains membership in the ACLS ASA membership data thus not only permits the ASA to learn more about itself internally and in comparison to other learned societies but it also helps to construct a profile of the larger communities of learned societies to which the ASA belongs Your efforts in completing the personal sections of the membership form are thus an important contribution not only to the ASA in particular but also to learned societies in general

CANDIDATES FOR VICE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Joseph C Miller (History University of Virginia) Biographical Statement I have been a member of the African Studies Association since the late 1960s served on the ASA Board of Directors from 1985 through 1988 during our headquarters move from UCLA to Emory and acted as Treasurer of the Association from 1988 to 1993 I am proud to have contributed to the creation of several enduring initiatives of the Association while including the visiting International Scholars at our annual meetings launching Issue reorganshyizing the African Studies Review and establishing an accounting system and endowment for the Association It is rewarding now to have the opportunity to serve the ASA and its members once again

As an Africanist I entered the field in 1965 on the wave of euphoria of the early years of independence My dissertashytion led me and the first few trained Africanist graduate students into the rich documentation on sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Portuguese Africa looking for the past of Angolas peoples beneath the barely disturbed shell of racist Portuguese government propaganda demeaning their colonial subjects I ended up with a dissertation and book that explored the utter lack of convergence between the oral traditions of the kingdom of Kasanje inland from

Luanda and the contemporaneous written records of the invading Portuguese The relevance of this research to my candidacy of the moment is the appreciation that I gained from it of the integrity of each of the two (and more) mental worlds inhabited by people living and fighting in the same physical and temporal space The president of the ASA must similarly recognize and fully support the multiple perspectives of a membership as richly diverse as ours also confronted the respective integrities of the several academic disciplines involved in doing the history of early Africa The ASA is a rare multi-disciplinary forum in which we can share and explore the mutualities of our respective scholarly and professional expertise as we collectively seek to understand Africa in all its own multiplicity

As I negotiated the bizarre world of the last years of that Portuguese colony (before the Lisbon revolution of 1974) to protect myself and my Angolan research associates from Salazars state secret police I witnessed the complex brutalities - or brutal complexities - of colonial rule seen up-close and personal One did not see - or dared not acknowledge the liberation struggles also underway in the same colony but their presences and colonial fears of them were palpable and inspiring To experience the rest of by-then-independent Africa one had to fly out through the capitals of white-ruled southern Africa with the briefest possible stops in Windhoek and Johannesburg to reach


CANDIDATES FOR VICE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Nairobi Kampala Kinshasa and eventually Lagos and Kano That introduction left me with enduring impressions of the pride and dignity that prevailed in those independent nations during those early years - ideals to which one still holds in spite of all the subsequent challenges of postshycolonial neo-dependency

My education as a historian began in 1972 when I took up the position that I have held since then teaching the history of Africa and related subjects at the University of Virginia (in a series of academic ranks culminating now as the T Cary Johnson Jr Professor of History) I was invited to teach a course in comparative slavery which became the vehicle for my growing engagement through the 1970s and 1980s with the African diaspora in Latin America the Caribbean North Africa and the Middle East South Asia and the Indian Ocean Region My expanding research interests led to a large-ish book on the southern Atlantic slave trade Way of Death Merchant Capitalism and the Angolan Slave Trade 1730-1830 (1988) It begins with the mortifying terrors of the victims of the violence in central Africa explores the difficulty of keeping captives alive in the brutal conditions of their march to ports along the coast calculates the deadly financial consequences of mortality on the Middle Passage for slaves owners and finally suggests how wealthy merchant investors in London Lisbon and Luanda managed to avoid all the costsshypersonal and monetary of this suffering abuse and death all along this way of death from central Africa to Brazil

I have subsequently developed the underlying strategies of those engaged in this tragedy to contextualize slaving as a fall-back strategy for marginal players on all sides secondshyary in the Atlantic to the main game of accumulating African gold Spanish silver and then bullion also from Brazil and in Africa from ambitious challengers to their growing dependence on credit from European merchants My most active current scholarly interests extend these lessons from Africas encounter with modernity to global scales I want to convert the predominantly static emphasiS on slavery as an institution throughout the worlds history to a historishycized understanding of slaving as contextualized and contested processes throughout the world including Europes own long-ignored use of this ubiquitous - if also tragic human proclivity In tracking the growing literature in this field I found myself with a considerable bibliography of titles the collection has grown to some 25000 items and should become available on-line later this year In this slavery component of my scholarly career I also co-edited the two-volume Macmillan Encyclopedia of World Slavery (1998)

UVa had admitted women to its undergraduate College only in 1970 and racial integration as well was finally underway when I arrived in the wake of Virginias MaSSive Resistance I chaired committees that recommended creating interdisciplinary undergraduate majors in Womens

Studies and in African and African-American Studies I also helped to create Virginias Carter G Woodson Institute for African and African-American Studies Throughout this then-rather-Ionely-for-Africanists part of the American academic countrySide I worked with colleagues to create (with foundation support) a Southeastern Regional Seminar in African Studies SERSAS still thrives drawing together the HBCUs of the region and the state land-grant universishyties as well as its Dukes and Emorys In this Seminar I have been privileged to work closely with some of our professions important contributors in its lesser-known and lamentably less well financed settings I understand the rich variety of institutions that have now taken African and Diasporic studies into their curricula with lonely speCialists in some struggling to stay in touch with their colleagues others working through interdepartmental institutes some in self-standing departments of Africana and - of course shyalso those in the traditional area studies centers The ASA must think in terms of its members coming from all of these institutional settings

With regard to my hopes of leading this Association the distinctiveness of my recent world historical engagements rests on my continuing primary commitment to our shared quest to recognize Africas and Africans centrality to the world in senses far beyond the clicM-d and racialized passivity of blacks and bondage I have been directing NEH Summer Institutes and Seminars for Americanists since 1998 on ROOTS African Dimensions of the History and Cultures of the Americas I am also an eager contribshyutor on Africas behalf to K-12 teacher training I am a founding (and continuing) member of the Executive Board of the Association for the Study of the Worldwide African Diaspora I have taught at the University of Cape Town worked with colleagues at the University of the West Indies lectured throughout Europe and in Brazil and Canada and taught as visiting professor at the University of Puget Sound and The College of William and Mary

My primarily commitment to the fast-moving scholarship on Africa in all its growing and glorious multi-disciplinary disarshyray led to collaboration with Jean Hay in organizing the first-ever Africa section (1000 titles) of the American Historical Association Guide to Historical Literature (1991) I joined colleagues in the US and the UK in co-editing the Journal of African History (1990-97) I worked with John Middleton in preparing the Encyclopedia of Africa South of the Sahara (1997) and am now engaged with him again in designing a second expanded New International Encyclopedia of Africa I am particularly proud to work closely with colleagues in Luanda who have brought the rich trove of documentary treasures in Angolas Arquivo Historico Nacional through the recent difficulties in that country and under the most trying of conditions have established solid academic bases for a national history Based as close as I have been to Washington I have acquainted myself with the DC-based funding and regula-


I

CANDIDATES FOR VICE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS tory framework of African Studies including both Fulbright award committees and Office of Education committees evaluating Title VI programs As ASA treasurer I contacted potential funders and with the international education and exchange agencies and moved again in these circles as president (1998) of the DC-based American Historical Association

I should close this candidate biography with my experience in academic and professional administration the most releshyvant of all qualification for leading your Association I may be the only African historian in the world to hold an MBA degree (Northwestern 1963) When I left the corporate world I expected never to draw again on the financial and management prinCiples that I had learned but a historian should know that one never escapes ones past Beyond the usual (and inevitable) departmental and university committee responsibilities I served as Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences here at UVa (1990-95) My sense for balance sheets served me well as a member of the Board of this Association and as its Treasurer My partiCipation in the UNESCO Slave Route Project and its affiliates has left me with strong lessons in international institutional collaboshyration The opportunity of contributing these experiences and interests to the African Studies Association as your president would be a rewarding challenge and an honor

Joseph C Miller Statement of Candidacy It is conventional in statements of this sort to list the many contemporary challenges facing Africa hindering African studies in the US and besetting us Africanists intent on overcoming them The African Studies Association we all hope can do something to contribute if not lead in overshycoming racism violent disregard for human rights poverty and neglect and international ignorance about Africa and its peoples I of course -share this commitment of our members and officers to elemental human justice and I also appreciate the rich diversity of convictions and abilities and experiences that our members bring to these causes by associating here together The responsibility of your Associations officers is to facilitate all of your energies and insights - not to act for you

All professional associations are thus membership organishyzations they consist of their members and work for their members only with their generous financial support and commitments of personal time of their members The presshyidential responsibilities that I would assume are coordinating they are not executive They are also fleetshying and few presidents leave - or ought to leave -enduring personal legacies As your elected officer I would therefore focus on supporting you all of us in maintaining and enhancing the multifold ongoing activities that we now pursue within the ambit of our ASA I would work to institushytionalize Association procedures and poliCies that will facilitate contacts and collaborations along all available

axes among members between the US and Africa and elsewhere between the Association and other organizashytions with whom we might productively collaborate and beyond Hence as your president I would lead by acting exactly as my title authorizes that officer of yours to do presiding judiciously and efficiently over what we severally as well as collectively can accomplish most efficaciously by collaborating under the ASA umbrella Dare I suggest that this is an African style of working together

The issues that now lie before us are first of all financial All else depends on revenues from you that will support our executive office and the further initiatives that you might wish to undertake We have enjoyed excellent elected leadership over the years and as a result have significant and valuable programs under way but they are not cheap We have an extremely able professionally skilled and responsible executive director and staff to manage the dayshyto-day affairs of an organization as large and spread-out as the ASA has grown to be but this talented and loyal staff looks to us for appropriate compensation no less than we expect our universities or other employers to recognize our contributions monetarily We have excellent and improving publications - but they cost money We are investing in vital new technology capable of managing both our communications and our accounts effiCiently - but it too is expensive We promote direct contact with our colleagues in Africa by bringing visitors from there for our annual meetshyings here always at significant cost At our annual meetings we provide audio-visual equipment for our members to demonstrate their creativity but hotels charge an arm and a leg for these meeting services to cover the breaks they give us on our room rates in effect your meeting registration fees subsidize your expense for your accommodations Our membership is growing but we are growing also in costly services to our members I assure you that I will bring my financial experience to bear on using your money well and responsibly - but from it I also know that our costs will continue to rise What you can expect from a responsible Board is to consult you about how youd like to contribute to sharing the expense of what you belong to the ASA to receive from it That I will facilishytate

With revenues in place we can collaborate (and potentially maximize the scholarly effect of the dollars we spend) with other professional associations As a separate area studshyies organization the ASA has supported us all well in advancing through three scholarly generations of growing specialized knowledge and skills We now - at least incipishyently have achieved acceptance as vital contributors in our broader disciplines I would explore ways in which our Association might extend the presence of Africa further throughout the academy These include through contacts with our organizational counterparts even beyond the closely related ones that recent preSidents have pursued (implemented in this years collaboration with the


CANDIDATES FOR VICE PRESIDENT OFTHE BOARD OF DIRECTORS CAASACEA) Along these lines I would facilitate particishypation in our meetings and appearances in our publications of non-specialists who have something to say to Africanists correspondingly we may (NB - at no cost to the Association) correspondingly sponsor contributions by Africanists to meetings in other regional fields

What the ASA has to offer publicly beyond the academy and beyond our own professional concerns is to frame and channel the vast expertise of our members to make effecshytive contributions to public policy debates and media coverage regarding Africa - from reparations to sustainable development to public health to global environmental concerns to continuing racial stereotyping Our counterpart organizations have valuable experience in sponsoring skilled members in making their responsible and informed perspectives available widely and I would eagerly support organizing ourselves to make a difference along these lines for Africa Obviously internet technologies provide opportushynities only recently available and the H-NET network (to offer one example) has a standing interest in Africa on which we might collaborate as an organization

The ASA was founded at a time when a small core of neoshyAfricanists needed a separate organization to justify their distinctive professional focus on Africa to an exclusive mainstream academy nearly a half century ago If elected my term in office would coincide with planning for the fiftyshyyear anniversary of our incorporation Times have changed I see this moment as an opportunity to offer a tribute to our predecessors in Africa and in the United States who for nearly a century before 1957 believed in Africa and in Africans and laid out the parameters of what later became the modern academic field long before this Association began the process of bringing study of the continent into the larger wealthier and better-connected universities that have sustained its maturation Such a commemoration would of course embrace their commitshyteed activism as well as their scholarship in reaching out to other organizations interested in Africa here in the US and also in Africa - TransAfrica the National Summit on Africa CODES RIA and other less primarily academic colleagues elsewhere abroad

What can a membership organization like the ASA do to enhance research and publication on Africa by Africashybased researchers We have a Higher Education Initiative in its preliminary phases and I will join the presshyent Board in pursuing ways to enhance the transfer and application of knowledge that we have drawn from and about Africa back to its originators through colleagues and

institutions there We may consider what we might term an Africa Research Initiative in which we would dedicate our (limited) resources to supporting our own members more systematically in mobilizing to advise how we - and our universities and other institutional connections - can collabshyorate with them and with representatives from The Continent in balanced relevant research efforts From such an initiative in Africa might emerge viable (might one term them sustainable) models of truly balanced collaboshyrations drawing synergistically on the respective strengths and interests of all sides In the US we would use the value of contributions from Africa to support members in tapping the resources of their own institutions An ongoing ASA task force utilization of the International Visitors Program and the occasions of our annual meetings seem to offer accessible and promising venues

The ASA and all other regional associations and programs will surely continue to face urgent and utterly fundamental public challenges to the intellectual integrity of area studies programs all around the world This deep-running current in U S politics exacerbated by the tragedy of 9112001 has already surfaced in public debate in the form of HR 3077 This bill as many of you know - proposes (among other things) to subject our teaching and research to nonshypeer potentially political review I am prepared to build on Africas integral importance to the twenty-first-century acadshyemy to highlight the very broad threat that such initiatives pose across the disciplines - far beyond the area studies programs on which they are nominally and presently focused This current threat to African studies is another potential intrusion on the academy as a whole we need allies to oppose it and they need us

As your president I would contribute a presidents column of modest proportions in each issue of the African Studies Newsletter in which I would report on progress under way in the member initiatives that we would have taken under my and the Associations sponsorship Such a column - or even-more-frequent e-messages would in turn surely prompt suggestions for additional working groups to form and themselves to report back regularly to the Association In these subtle and cost-effective ways I would hope to draw on the spontaneous and generous participation of all of our members to make the ASA more directly rewardshyingly and immediately their own and together thus to make more of a difference for Africa for our professional ambishytions and for the further integration of a full and accurate image of Africa in the public awareness of the United States


I

CANDIDATES FOR VICE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Julius E Nyangoro (African and Afro-American Studies University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill) Biographical Statement I am a professor of African Studies in the Department of African and Afro-American Studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill I am also adjunct professor of political science I have served as chair of my departshyment since 1992 I hold a BA in political science from the University of Dar es Salaam a MA and PhD in political science from Miami (Ohio) University and a JD from Duke University

I was born and lived in Tanzania until 1978 when I came to the United States to pursue graduate studies I have also studied in Denmark and Kenya doing specialized courses in international law Since obtaining my PhD and JD my research has principally been in the fields of African politics and governance comparative political economy security studies and civil society I have published half a dozen books and more than four dozen articles on subjects related to my research My current research is on the polishytics of inequality in Tanzania and its effects on the democratization process Much more succinctly it is a study of the local consequences of globalization This is an important subject for me both personally and intellectually Growing up in Tanzania during the Nyerere era the states ideological commitment to egalitarianism shaped my earlier thinking on socio-economic development However the Tanzanian states commitment to egalitarianism was effecshytively abandoned in the late 1980s leading to policies and consequences that are quite different from those I anticishypated as a young person Today when I visit many places in rural Tanzania and other parts of the African continent I am struck by the disjuncture between the presence of a globalized culture particularly among the young (music clothing etc) and the reality of an economy that exposes sharp income inequalities My intellectual concerns are geared towards understanding this contradiction and suggesting ways in which peoples lives on the African continent could be improved

I have had research and teaching appOintments at various institutions in Africa These include the Institute of Finance Management in Dar es Salaam Tanzania (political econshyomy) University of Asmara Eritrea (law and political science) and the Centre for African Studies the University of Cape Town I have had collaborative research with colleagues in Senegal Ghana Nigeria Kenya Uganda Tanzania Eritrea Zimbabwe Malawi Zambia South Africa and Namibia

Julius E Nyangoro Statement of Candidacy I have been a member of the ASA since 1983 and a life member since 1997 I served on the ASA Board of

Directors from 1995-1998 My relationship to the ASA has been a rewarding one to me both personally and intellectushyally I have seen the ASA evolve in many positive ways and hence my willingness to take a leadership role in the organization My primary aim will be to consolidate the gains that the association has achieved in the last two decades in which I have been a member and to seek ways in which the association can continue to be a catalyst for change A few items come to mind in relation to this

First I would like to continue with the associations quest to become more open and inclusive The association has happily moved beyond Montreal 76 and has genuinely responded to the concerns raised then I will work hard to consolidate these gains

Second in the wake of the September 11 th attacks and the ensuing war on terrorism there are concerns that academic freedom is under assault Voices of censorship and the demand to teach the subject matter of our discishyplines in line with particular ideologies and policies is a dangerous development that must be addressed head on The spirit of open and unfettered academic inquiry must be preserved

Third there must be genuine attempts to enhance and foster linkages between the ASA and Africa based organishyzations such as Association of African Political Science (AAPS) Council on the Development of Social Sciences in Africa (CODESRIA) Organisation for Social Science Research in Eastern and Southern Africa (OSSREA) and the Southern Africa Political Economy Series (SAPES) While the ASA has maintained these linkages in the past we need to make special efforts to organize joint programs with these organizations This will raise the profile of the ASA in Africa while doing the same for Africa based organishyzations in North America

Finally the ASA must continue to playa key role in promotshying a better and more sophisticated understanding of Africa in North America In spite of the efforts by colleagues teaching about Africa at various levels of the school system in North America (primary secondary and tertiary) much of the public is badly (mis)informed about the real Africa While this is a problem that is understood by most of us who teach about and conduct research on Africa the ASA needs to take a more proactive agenda in pushing for a better understanding of the continent to North American audiences With grant funding specific programs of public education could be developed to address this issue

In conclusion the ASA is already doing a good job addressshying many of the issues I have mentioned We need to ensure that there is consolidation of these gains and to avoid back slippage of any kind The ASA must remain on the forefront for positive change and better understanding of Africa


CANDIDATES FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Toyin Faiola (History University of Texas at Austin) Biographical Statement I am very honored to have been nominated and I am humbled by the trust that your vote brings I was born and educated in Nigeria with a life and educational experiences that combine multiple traditions and ideas After earning my PhD in History at the University of Ife in 1981 I taught in Nigeria for the rest of the decade During that time I also held short-term appointments in England (University of Cambridge) Canada (York University) and Lagos (the Nigerian Institute of International Affairs) Since 1991 I have been based at the University of Texas at Austin where I hold the Frances Higginbothom Nalle Centennial Professorship I have had the privilege of giving lectures on all continents and I have received prestigious awards

My major achievement at Texas has been to popularize African Studies I have received many teaching awards from the university including the Jean Holloway Award for Teaching Excellence in 2000 the Texas Excellence Teaching Award in 2001 and the Chancellors Council Outstanding Teaching Award in 2003-04 The university has made me a member of the Academy of Distinguished Teachers the highest award offered in Austin Over the years I have successfully built a distinguished graduate program in African history and I have also helped to develop the Universitys Center for African and African American Studies which fosters interdisciplinary projects and communications concerning Africa and the African Diaspora Additionally I convene an annual conference in March which brings to the UT campus an average of 100 people from around the world

I have edited several journals (eg ODU A Journal of West African Studies and the Journal of African Economic History) and served on the boards of many others (eg Journal of African History West African Review and Journal of Asian and African Studies) At the moment I am the Series Editor for the University of Rochester Studies in African History and the Diaspora the Greenwood Series on Culture and Customs of Africa and the Classic Authors of Texts and Authors on Africa for Africa World Press

Over the past two decades I have published many books and articles My most recent publications include The Power of African Cultures Nationalism and African Intellectuals The History of Nigeria Violence in Nigeria and Key Events in African History In addition I have edited a comprehensive five volume textbook series Africa which is now popular across the country My personal memoir entitled A Mouth Sweeter Than Salt An African Memoir will be released by the University of Michigan Press in June Two volumes of essays have recently been published in my honor The Transformation of Nigeria Essays in Honor of

Toyin Faiola and The Foundations of Nigeria Essays in Honor of Toyin Faiola In August 2003 I was inducted into the Nigerian Academy of Letters and also nominated for the Nigerian National Order of Merit

Toyin Faiola Statement of Candidacy I have a strong record of working with others on boards of journals academic organizations and a host of other assoshyciations I have worked in executive capacities in other associations including serving as the General Secretary of the Historical Society of Nigeria and been a member of the Joel Gregory Prize Committee for the Canadian Association of African Studies

For many years now it has been my privilege to contribute to the development of the ASA For three years I served on the National Program Committee (as Chair in 1996) This year I am also serving as a member responsible for the theme Urban Spaces in Africa Past Memories and Present Communities

My contributions will be to work with others to maintain the strength and stability of the ASA and move it to a higher level Specifically my concerns will include the following

bull To continue this tradition of service as a team player to foster issues of professionalism and the elevation of the status of Africa and those who devote their time to study it

bull To continue to pursue the goals of an interdisciplinary organization the ASA must foster cooperation and communication across academic and geographical boundaries for the benefit of all I have actively fostered this kind of interdisciplinary communication in various ways the development of programs journals edited volumes and productive interactions among scholars and students

bull With others I will propose and implement a number of programs to benefit academic institutions in Africa by (a) seeking the means to enhance the reproduction of African studies (publishing academic exchanges donations hosting of conferences) (b) strengthening the networks between Africa and other parts of the world (the diffusion of Africa-based knowledge and the exposure of a new generation of scholars to other scholarly practices)

bull To pursue the resources and strategies to popularize the needs and concerns of Africa in the public sphere in a way that will encourage a concerned constituency to care and respond

If elected I will work with others to achieve the above and other objectives all in a manner emphasizing the values of integrity progress and responsibility


II CANDIDATES FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Alcinda Honwana (Social Science Research Council) Biographical Statement I am currently a Program Director at the Social Science Research Council in New York for the Children and Armed Conflict Program and co-directing the Africa Program Before joining the Council I was a program officer and coordinator of research in the Office of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Children and Armed Conflict At the United Nations I was centrally involved in the development of a research agenda on chilshydren and armed conflict which is currently being implemented at the SSRC and brings together a network of researchers academic institutions and humanitarian organizations

Born in Mozambique I hold a first degree in History and Geography from the University Eduardo Mondlane in Maputo Mozambique a Maitrise in Sociology from lUniversite de Paris 8 in France and an MA and a PhD in Social Anthropology from the School of Oriental and African Studies of the University of London in the UK I lectured on Anthropology at the University Eduardo Mondlane in Maputo and in South Africa I was a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Social Anthropology of the University of Cape Town In 2001 I was a Visiting Professor at Graduate Faculty at the New School University in New York

My doctoral research focused on spirit possession and traditional healing political conflict and the politics of culture in Mozambique I subsequently carried out research on the effects of political violence on young people in Mozambique and Angola My work has given particular attention to the role of local communities in processes of post-conflict healing reconciliation and social reintegration of war-affected children and youths especially child soldiers and abused girls

I have published a book on spirit possession and modernity in Mozambique and I am currently completing a manuscript on child soldiers in Africa that will be published next year by University of Pennsylvania Press I co-edited a volume entishytled Makers and Breakers Children and Youth in Postcolonial Africa which is currently in press with James Currey Publishers in Oxford In 2000 I was the co-editor of a special issue of the French journal Politique Africaine on Children Youth and Politics in Africa I have published several journal articles and book chapters on spirit possesshysion healing and cultural politics in Mozambique and on children youth and conflict in Mozambique and Angola

I was a member of the board of the Council for the Development of Social Research in Africa (CODESRIA) from 1998 to 2002 Before joining the SSRC I was a member of its Advisory Panel for Africa I am a member of the Editorial Boards of AFRICA the Journal of the International African Institute the African Sociological Review and the Journal for Higher Education in Africa

Alcinda Honwana Statement of Candidacy I am very pleased to stand as a candidate for the ASA Board of Directors I believe that the ASA as one of the most important Africanist scholarly organizations in the world ought to further deepen its links with African scholshyars It should continue to facilitate research and analysis on the most pressing challenges before contemporary Africa In addition to being theoretically stimulating such research should connect with policymaking and practical intervenshytions so as to contribute to addressing the vast range of problems confronting African societies such as conflict and political violence poverty and economic crisis HIVAIDS and other health problems displacement and migration and environmental degradation

My contribution to the ASA Board of Directors would focus particularly on strengthening our institutional collaboration with relevant organizations on the continent especially CODESRIA the largest and most important association (gathering) of African social scientists I served as a member of the Board of CODESRIA from 1998 to 2001 and would be happy to work with my fellow directors at ASA to cultivate a closer relationship with scholars based in Africa on the basis of a mutually enriching intellectual exchange While working as a research coordinator at the United Nations I came to realize how important a role can academic research play in shaping both the formulation of global public policy and the implementation of effective practical interventions My work as a program director at the SSRC focusing on Africa children youth and armed conflict has brought my academic research to bear upon larger societal issues and more practical needs I believe that this experience will be useful as the ASA develops a multifaceted collaboration with African social scientists

Finally having studied in Mozambique France and the UK and having worked both in Africa and the USA I have learned several languages and was exposed to a variety of intellectual traditions which are helpful in understanding the diverse traditions in African academy and in facilitating interactions with colleagues who are working across the continent


CANDIDATES FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Corinne Kratz (Center for the Study of Public Scholarship Emory University) Biographical Statement My commitment to African Studies began as an undergradshyuate and was confirmed and strengthened through research in Kenya that began in the 1970s I have continshyued to work in Kenya have developed a collaborative program with southern African colleagues worked on exhishybitions dealing with many parts of the continent and with diaspora topics and taught African Studies courses My scholarly research and writing lie at the intersection of the humanities and social sciences and combine an historical orientation with long-term intensive fieldwork Understanding how people constitute cultural identities and gender relations have been key topics throughout my research

Alongside my research and work in university settings I have sought to engage those working in other settings and institutions of public culture including a development projshyect in Kenya community research in Atlanta and museums in Africa and the US I currently co-direct the Center for the Study of Public Scholarship (CSPS) and the Institutions of Public Culture program at Emory University CSPS brings together academic and community based scholars and provides a space for collaborative scholarship crossing the boundary between academy and public

Institutions of Public Culture is a collaborative linkage and exchange program managed through two committees based in Cape Town and Atlanta with membership drawn from a range of cultural organizations in each country that includes universities museums arts organizations and national cultural organizations Further information can be found at httpwwwemoryedulCOLLEGElCSPS

My first book Affecting Performance Meaning Movement and Experience in Okiek Womens Initiation (Smithsonian 1994) examined ritual process and performance in initiashytion ceremonies My recent book The Ones That Are Wanted Communication and the Politics of Representation in a Photographic Exhibition (University of California 2002) presents a case study of an exhibition I mounted at the National Museum Nairobi and then traveled in the United States This project extends my concern with culture communication and performance to encompass photograshyphy exhibitions and cultural display more generally and incorporates comparative dimensions by following the exhibit throughout its tour My current research includes two major projects a) a collaborative and comparative project on Museums and Global Public Spheres that led to an international conference and will soon produce an edited volume called Museum Frictions Public CulturesGlobal Transformations and b) a project focused on the artful

argument and powerful performance of Okiek marriage arrangement in Kenya This project follows the same young women featured in my first book and will relate the complex social and political negotiations of marriage meetings to important historical shifts in Okiek life

Corinne Kratz Statement of Candidacy The African Studies Association plays an important role in bringing people and programs together providing ways for Africanists in different settings and disciplines to connect It takes sustained effort and energy to maintain and renew the projects and ideas that allow these connections and to identify ways that the ASA can adapt to changing circumshystances in Africanist scholarship the academy in North America and Africa and ongoing transformations in African life If elected to the Board of Directors I would bring to that task a perspective and range of experience that speaks to intersections among the humanities and social sciences The following are three sets of issues that I think are particularly important

1 The role of the ASA in shaping and sustaining the next generation of Africanists It is increasingly difficult to be aware of work produced about all areas of the continent even on a single topic or in a single field yet it is important to maintain conversations and interests that reach across regional specialties both within Africanist work and more broadly Those conversations could be encouraged and sustained among young scholars in a number of ways including such efforts as sponsored interdisciplinary panels on regional comparisons at the annual meeting or encourshyaging panel organizers to include participants who work in other world regions by waiving membership fees for oneshytime attendance by a Latin Americanist South Asianist or other area studies scholar

2 The ASA should play an important role in encouraging connections with universities and other institutions of public culture in Africa and where possible be an advocate for colleagues in higher education and research in Africa ASA should continue to support and work to influence policies and programs that sustain scholarship done by Africashybased scholars who often work in conditions that challenge the ability to sustain research and writing

3 ASA is also well placed to foster conversations and connections across different kinds of institutions that are engaged in producing and disseminating knowledge about African Studies - universities and other levels of schooling museums development media legal and political organishyzations and other institutions of public culture Africanists These broader connections are crucial to create an awareshyness and concern with Africa that has a broad public and institutional basis


CANDIDATES FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Sakah S Mahmud (Political Science Transylvania University and Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies University of Notre Dame) Biographical Statement My academic activities (research and teaching) have focused on issues of African development in international and comparative perspectives Since my undergraduate days at Ahmadu Bello University Zaria - Nigeria (B Sc Government) I have been fascinated with the question Why do some countries develop and others stagnate This question led to my Ph D dissertation State Class and Underdevelopment A Contrast of Nigeria and Early Meiji Japan in 1992

After receiving my PhD from the Graduate School of International Studies University of Denver I taught at varishyous colleges including the University of Denver University of Colorado at Denver Metropolitan State College of Denver and the Japanese Teikyo Loretto Heights University before taking up my current position at Transylvania University (a liberal arts college) where I teach Politics of Sub-Saharan Africa African History Politics of the Middle East Politics and Society of Japan and Politics of Human Rights the Developing World

My publications include State Class and Under~evelopment in Nigeria and Early Meiji Japan (Macmillan and St Martins Press 1996) an attempt to understand the social and political transformations necesshysary for development in the early stages during which the state played a major role I also published a specialized monograph Can the Nigerian Democracy Succeed Stoke Phelps Foundation NY (1998) My other publications on human rights development and democracy in Africa have ap~eared in Human Rights Quarterly (August 1993) and Afnca Today My collaborative works have appeared as chapters in K Dunn and T Shaw eds Africas Challenge to International Relations Theory London Palgrave 2001 (chapter 9) Shepherd and Sonko eds Economic Justice in Africa Adjustment and the Right to Development Greenwood Press 1994 (chapter 8) and forthcoming (2004) The Search for Meaning in Islam Between Violence and Non-violence in Odell-Scott ed Democracy and Religion Free Exercise and Diverse Visions Kent State University Press

From 1995 to 1997 I edited Africa Today including the follOWing special issues with introductions Africas International Relations and Human Rights Vo144 no 1 (January-March 1997) Reassessing Democratic Transitions in Africa vol 43 no 4 (October-December 1996) Conflict and Conflict Resolution in Africa vol 43 nO2 (April-June 1996) Southern Africa in the Post-apartheid Era vol 43 no 1 (January-March 1996) and The Politics of Economic Integration in Africa vol 42 no 4 (1995) I have also contributed to African Studies as a member of the Board of Africa Today Associates since 2002

Professionally I was an NEH Visiting Scholar at the University of Chicago (2002) and currently a Rockefeller Visiting Fellow on Religion Conflict and Peacebuilding (Islamic Activism in Nigeria and Senegal) From 1999 to the present I have received various grants for field research in Nigeria Senegal and South Africa In addition to the ASA I hold memberships in the American Political Science Association Association for Asian Studies International Studies Association and the West African Research Association (WARA) In May 2003 I was awarded the Transylvania UniversityS Faculty Member of the Year for outstanding teaching

Sakah S Mahmud Statement of Candidacy I am greatly honored to be selected for election to the Board of Directors of the African Studies Association (ASA) Of the profeSSional organizations that I belong it is the ASA ~hat I call my academic home My first annual meeting was In 1985 as a graduate student and I have since looked forward to every meeting both for intellectual rejuvenation and as a social reunion The ASA is unique for its interdiscishyplinary focus and the diversity of its membership These are strengths that should be maintained and built upon Over the years the ASA has shown visible improvements in its administration with more efficient dispatch of information and the organization of its annual meetings However like other professional associations the ASA also faces chalshylenges The future hinges on our collective responses to these challenges Following are few issues that I would like to see the ASA address and where I can contribute as a member of the Board of Directors

First the future of the Association would depend on continshyuing student interest in African studies and successful teaching is a major determinant of student interest The ASA COUld contribute to faculty development by organizing and including panels or workshops on teaching during the annual meetings Faculty members with innovative approaches to teaching African studies can share their experiences and techniques with new faculty members Even issues such as successful grant writing can enhance faculty performance In the competitive field of area studies especially in small liberal arts colleges student interest through faculty success would provide a quality pool of graduate students and future faculty in African studies I would personally partiCipate in such undertakings

Second and also in terms of service to members doing research in Africa is often not easy as most of us are aware However the presence of regional research organishyzations within the ASA such as WARA can go a long way to make research easier From my experience doing field research recently in Nigeria Senegal and South Africa the WARA presence in Senegal makes it a lot easier to do field research in that country than in the others The ASA can facilitate the formation of other regional research groups for other parts of the continent Such affiliated sub-regional


I

CANDIDATES FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS organizations can also help the ASA in its outreach programs Currently ASA annual meetings are hardly covered in Africa press and important issues that may have policy implications for African development are not transmitshyted to the continent The Association should find ways to make annual meeting papers available to African audishyences

Finally on a related issue the ASA should have more jOint meetings with other associations such as the Latin American the Middle Eastern and South Asian studies From experience cross fertilization of ideas and experishy

ences with scholars of those areas can be very fruitful for scholars of African studies

It is my desire if elected to use my professional experience to contribute to the areas mentioned above for continuing development of the African Studies Association It would take the collective efforts of officials and members of the association to achieve these goals As a member of the Board of Directors I would listen to as many members for ideas and I will strive to find channels for ideas from members into decisions and policies of the association

Lioba Moshi (LinguisticsComparative Literature University of Georgia) Biographical Information My interest in African studies was not developed but is natural Through scholarly activities before and since I arrived in the United States in 1981 to study linguistics at the University of California Los Angeles I have had the pleasure of working with numerous extraordinarily talented scholars of Africa My teaching record spans across contishynents Tanzania England (University of York) USA (UCLA StanfordBerkeley University of Pennsylvania and University of Georgia) I received my PhD at UCLA Master of Philosophy at the University of York- England and both Master of Arts in Linguistics and a BA with Education at the University of Dar Es Salaam

My research is very diverse and encompasses African linguistics general linguistics language pedagogy womens studies and African language teaching materials development (specifically KiSwahili) These research activishyties have produced numerous publications that include such articles as Primary and Gramaticalized Ideophones (2003 Trends in African Lingusitics - co-author David Dwyer) In the Trenches teaching Experiences of a Language Teacher (JALTA 32003) Producing and Using Video in African language Instruction (JALTA 42003) The Right of Passage to World Knowledge Education and Socialization Gender Tales from Africa Voices of Children and Women Against Discrimination 2001 UNCEF Publications) Reciprocals in Kivunjo-Chaga Languages of Tanzania (2000 JALL Leiden University) Locatives in KiVunjo-Chaga ( 1995 Trends in African Linguistics Theoretical Approaches to African Linguistics Africa World Press Inc) and books The Pedagogy of African Languages An Emerging Field Ann Arbor MI CushingshyMalloy 2000 co-author Antonia Schleicher) KiSwahili Lugha na Utamaduni (Swahili Language and Culture) Hyattsville MD Dunwoody Press 1998) Topics in African Languages ( 1993 John Benjamins - co-edited) In addishytion my research has allowed me to produce creative works that include video series for the teaching of Kiswahili (a USDE major grant project) and more recently (collaboshyratively with other scholars in the field and supported by

USDE grants) internet-based teaching materials for African languages (Kiswahili 2000 -2003 Yoruba 2003-2006)

Administratively I have held institutional as well as associashytion leadership positions Currently I direct the African Studies Institute at the University of Georgia This is my third term (3 years each) having assumed the director ship in 1997 At the time it was a program with limited resources and without a budget or physical space It became an Institute in 2001 and has since been endowed with comfortable operating facilities and it is now considshyered the fastest growing and most successful area studies unit with a thriving certificate in African studies study abroad programs and service learning programs in Africa I am also the director of the African Languages Program (Swahili Yoruba Zulu) that is housed in the Department of Comparative Literature at UGA Nationally I served as president of the African Language Teachers Association (ALTA 1991-95) and also served as a Board member of the National Council on Less Commonly Taught Languages (NCOLCTL 1992-97) These leadership positions have allowed me a rare opportunity to advance the African stUdshyies agenda at the institutional national and international levels

Lioba Moshi Statement of Candidacy Interest in African politics and scholarly research is at all times high Policy makers researchers and students are interested in the way Africa is handling its affairs wondering how the African Union will be different from the Organization of African Unity whether the Africa Growth and opportunity Act is for Africa or will benefit its western partners more whether NEPAD will be a body that liberates Africa from its economic woes and whether globalization does more harm than good perhaps a trap for the continent that continshyues to suffer despite its wealth from both human and natural resources many years of independence from colonialism and apartheid and a resilient citizenry that has withstood all sorts of human inflicted and natural disasters Nevertheless we see tremendous improvement at institutions of higher education in terms of faculty development and curriculum enhancement More and more of our colleagues have opportunities to further their scholastic work while they look for better and more effective ways to deliver knowledge to


CANDIDATES FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS their students They are forging new partnerships with colleagues within the continent and outside the continent (especially Europe and Asia) and strengthening old ties with institutions in the west This has benefited our students especially undergraduates participating in study abroad programs or long-term exchange programs We have more undergraduate students traveling to Africa not only to study but also to engage in service learning programs We also have a number of graduate students exploring various opportunities for research in Africa including in intensive language programs that would enhance their research skills All this is happening at the height of travel restrictions and scares a consequence of the effects of 911 and the onshygoing war on terrorism Students have also taken interest in the plight of their compatriots in Africa It is refreshing to note that book donations for libraries are on the rise with a participatory interest from students traveling to Africa during study abroad programs For example in the last three years students from the University of Georgia and nationshyally selected students who participate in Group Projects Abroad programs in Tanzania have donated close to one hundred books to the University of Dar Es Salaam library This is a student led initiative and managed (organizing the collection and transportation of these books as checked luggage) project that has enhanced US and African institushytional linkages

So as scholars of African studies what can we do to sustain this momentum and perhaps revive the spirit of the 70s and part of the 80s that sustained the enthusiasm in studying teaching and research about and in Africa Should we develop new national and institutional strategies that both emphasis graduate and undergraduate studies and research in Africa through service learning programs in order to increase the number of undergraduates going to graduate school with a keen interest on the study of Africa

How many schools have strong African studies graduate programs and how can others learn from their strategies for success How can we utilize our relationship with African institutions to strengthen our research and teaching agenshydas while we enhance their ability to relate and access the western academia to prevent the development of a global apartheid across the continent Are there parts of the contishynent that are not part of the so called global village These are some of my concerns that I would like to bring to the table As a director of a program that started small and has realized tremendous progress (largely affecting undergradshyuates while growing our focus on graduate programs) I would like to think that I can bring fresh ideas to the table and that my contribution would be substantial I would like to work with other ASA members to create a new ASA for

the 21 st century one that actively engages those scholars who left because they felt marginalized and one that encourages young scholars (including undergraduates) to take a keen interest in the importance of the association as a body that not only units but speaks with one voice for Africa I hope to work with other ASA members to increase the associations visibility both nationally and internationally through its programming in addition to its annual meeting This would include fostering collaboration between historishycally black colleges and universities that pioneered African Studies in the United States and those institutions that have been predominantly white and have had better access to resources for African Studies There is also need to encourage scholars in the sciences to be members of ASA and to organize panels that would inform the membershyship about SCiencetechnology research in Africa by both Africans residing on the continent and Africans and nonshyAfrican scholars outside the continent ASAs role and interest in the teaching and learning of African languages need to be revived to the levels of the 70s 80s

Kathleen Sheldon (Independent historian Research scholar at University of California Los Angeles) Biographical Statement When I was a senior in high school I wrote a paper on the development of apartheid in South Africa I was drawn to that topic by a concern with racial politics in the US and I thought if I could understand the extreme racism present in South Africa I might better comprehend my own country My commitment to understanding the world in order to try to improve the situation has continued as a focus of all of my work I was an undergraduate at Northwestern University where I majored in History and earned credits equivalent to a major in Political Science as well as a Certificate in African Studies During those years in the early 1970s I also became aware of political developments in Mozambique and I was particularly interested in new policies designed to emancipate women I began to study Portuguese and wrote research papers on Mozambique

I continued my education at the University of California in Los Angeles (UCLA) first earning a Masters in African Area Studies in 1977 and completing my PhD in History in 1988 In addition to continuing my study of Portuguese I studied Swahili for three years initially hoping to do research in northern Mozambique among coastal communishyties While still a graduate student I co-compiled A Guide to Social Science Resources in Womens Studies (ABCshyClio 1977) which was deliberately global in its listings and was one of the first annotated bibliographies in the thenshynew field of womens stUdies In the early 1980s I lived for two years in Beira Mozambique with my husband and toddler daughter while I completed my dissertation research on working women in the city The conflict with Renamo was escalating and our experience of wartime conditions motivated me to join with other concerned colleagues in founding the Los Angeles chapter of the Mozambique Support Network when I returned I returned to Mozambique for extended visits in 1989 1994 and 1998 The Mozambicans I met on those trips especially the many impressive women who collaborated in my


CANDIDATES FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS research set a standard of commitment through their resourcefulness in the face of terrible difficulties

My research sparked my curiosity about urban African women resulting in the collection I edited Courtyards Markets City Streets Urban Women in Africa (Westview 1996) and articles in Lusotopie and the Canadian Journal of African Studies I published articles about Mozambican women in Arquivo Boletim do Arquivo Hist6rico de Moyambique Womens Studies Intemational Forum Signs Journal of Women in Culture and Society International Journal of African Historical Studies and in the edited collections African Encounters with Domesticity Women and Revolution in Africa Asia and the New World and The Greenwood Encyclopedia of Womens Issues Worldwide Sub-Saharan Africa I also published in History in Africa and contributed to the collection African Novels in the Classroom My most recent book brings much of that material together in Pounders of Grain A History of Women Work and Politics in Mozambique (Heinemann 2002) I am completing a new reference publication A Historical Dictionary of Women in Sub-Saharan Africa which will be published by Scarecrow Press in 2004 or 2005 That project indicates my continuing interest in making the history of African women more widely known and understood

Because of family commitments I have remained in Los Angeles where I taught African history and womens studshyies in part-time positions from 1986 to 1998 at UCLA California State University at Long Beach and Occidental College I am an independent historian with an academic affiliation with the UCLA Center for the Study of Women where I have been a Research Scholar since completing my dissertation As a member of the National Coalition of Independent Scholars I am committed to improving condishytions for scholars who are not formally employed in academia and therefore lack reliable access to libraries and funding though many are camouflaged by part-time and temporary university affiliations In 1999 I was honored with the Catherine Prelinger Scholarship Award from the Coordinating Council for Women in History a prize specifishycally deSignated for independent scholars pursuing womens history

I have actively worked to integrate African issues into womens history For the 1992 American Historical Association annual meeting I organized a panel on Gender and Ideology in Southern African History which I believe is still the only complete panel on African women ever included as part of the program of the AHA annual meeting I also have been active in the Western Association of Women Historians the Huntington Library Womens Studies Seminars and in my community as a ten-year member of the Santa Monica Commission on the Status of Women

In ASA I have worked to develop incorporate womens history into African studies I have been a committed member of the ASA Womens Caucus for over fifteen years

serving as treasurer and membership coordinator from 1997-2003 During the 1980s I helped coordinate Caucusshysponsored panels on women and gender contributing the much stronger position of womens studies today

My other primary focus in African studies is with the Portuguese-speaking nations I initiated and continue to chair the Lusophone African Studies Organization (LASO) beginning with an informal meeting in 1999 that brought over thirty scholars together for breakfast at the ASA annual meeting As an outgrowth of that I am a CO-founding editor of h-Iuso-africa a listserve which now has nearly 300 subscribers from all over the world and which serves as an important link between scholars (httpwwwhshynet org -Iusoafril)

Kathleen Sheldon Statement of Candidacy I have been enthusiastic about the African Studies Association since my early y~ars of graduate school in tDe 1970s and have attended every national meeting since 1984 The single exception was in 1994 when I missed the ASA only because I was a United Nations observer in Mozambique for that countrys first multi-party elections At most of the ASA meetings I presented a paper or was on a panel as chair or discussant and I have also organized numerous panels on women and on Lusophone Africa I have been centrally involved in the Womens Caucus since the 1980s and served as treasurer and membership coorshydinator from 1997 to 2003 I initiated and still chair the Lusophone African Studies Organization (LASO) which has been very successful in organizing panels and events and in supporting attendance by scholars from the Portuguese-speaking nations of Africa

After many years of work with organizations affiliated with ASA I would like to make use of my familiarity with ASA procedures by serving on the board of directors The ASA has had a real impact internationally in cultivating scholarly networking and I am particularly interested in working with the board to further those activities focusing on two imporshytant areas The first is continuing and improving ASA work with scholars based in Africa Recognizing the position of relative privilege of scholars based in the US I believe ASA can continue to develop mechanisms to support scholshyars in Africa These activities include support for developing depositories of materials in Africa especially national archives that in many countries are already suffering envishyronmental and political damage In one example with which I am familiar the national archive in Mozambique is housed in a deteriorating structure and members of LASO have adopted this as a special project working closely with the Mozambican archivist to identify funding sources and to provide other kinds of support The ASA can also ensure that current research produced outside of Africa reaches libraries and depOSitories in Africa and support African scholars visits to American institutions


I The second area for ASA efforts concerns outreach in the US There are a variety of venues for improved outreach activities One important area is further developing training for kindergarten through secondary teachers so that they are better prepared to incorporate information on Africa into their social studies curriculums Another area is to monitor American media coverage of African topics ASA can help make experts available and can help coordinate the spread of accurate information to counter the prevailing negative

views which still after all these years are the dominant way that Africa is portrayed on American television in particular

My goal in working with the board of directors and staff of the African Studies Association is to help it become the best that it can be so that the important work I touched on above can move forward ASA has given me many years of scholarly networking enthusiastic collegial support and warm friendships and I would be honored to serve the Association as a member of the Board of Directors

Viewpoint New Threats to Academic Freedom in International Education

The Senate will be considering legislation that could dramatically change the character of international education in this country The Senate Committee on Health Education Labor and Pensions (HELP) is considering a provision in Title VI of the upcoming Higher Education Reauthorization bill that would create an advisory board to ensure that federshyally funded intemational studies centers adequately serve national needs as they pertain to homeland security If the legislation is not taken up this spring it will be considered in 2005 The House voted unanimously last fall to establish such an oversight committee in the International Studies in Higher Education Act HR 3077 Now there is growing concern that language similar to HR 3077 may become part of the Senates Higher Education Reauthorization bill

Normally an advisory board would not be of much concern but this particular initiative is being viewed with alarm nationwide by large numbers who teach international studies because they feel academic freedom is under threat The board would be composed of political aPPointments and representatives of intelligence agencies who do not necesshysarily have professional competencies in area and language studies Those proposing the board appear determined to end what they characterize as a bias in the academy which they see as undermining US foreign policy and actively discouraging students from working for the federal governshyment

The focus of their attention is Middle East studies but all Title VI programs would be affected as the proposed advishysory board would oversee all National Resource Centers (NRCs) and other programs funded by Title VI These centers were formed to strengthen and maintain US capacshyity in foreign languages and area studies through the training of specialists in less-commonly taught languages and area and international studies Currently 118 NRCs are funded throughout the US in nine world areas

If approved the AdviSOry Board will not only be charged with broad policy directions in Title VI but will also have the right to weigh in on which centers get funded curricular design and faculty and graduate student research

The proposal for an advisory board comes at a time when public funding for higher education is in serious decline and at a time when Title VI funds for international studies have been in decline This years authorizations for Title VI appropriations total close to $104 million compared with

almost $108 million in 2003 In 19672344 students won Title VI foreign language awards compared with 1640 fellowshyships after a post-911 increase in funding These cuts also come at a time when there have been calls for stronger foreign language expertise and greater capacity for internashytional analysis

The Advisory Board itself would not come cheap it would cost the equivalent of 25-30 Title VI fellowships Interestingly in the 1980s when the federal government was running a budget deficit such a similar advisory board was eliminated on financial grounds

For decades after 1965 when the Higher Education Act was enacted the government supported university research in international and area studies with the expectation that it would be independent of ideological influences Today the university community is deeply concerned about the potential for an advisory board to introduce these elements into intershynational education

Challenges to academic freedom have no place in institushytions of higher learning where any form of real or threatened censorship will automatically undermine our credibility as scholars and erode the quality of research One cannot educate and learn about the world under these kinds of conditions Clearly this is not conducive to the freedom of speech that is so vital in keeping institutions of leaming places for the free exchange of ideas One of the reasons US institutions of higher learning have become world leadshyers has been precisely because they have had the freedom of expression necessary to nurture and develop creative ideas original thinking and new knowledge Creating an atmosphere of suspicion would only serve to discourage students from learning languages considered important from a national security standpoint and at a time when more than ever we need this expertise

The other reason to be concerned with the new interest in ideologically driven scholarship is the danger that we may ignore inconvenient facts and evidence and overlook releshyvant historic economic political and social contexts in the pursuit of pre-conceived solutions We run the risk of not considering realistic viable and affordable policy options Dogmas of any kind poison the academic enterprise which is all about examining and reexamining old truths criticizing and being self-critical of what we know seeking new evidence and constantly challenging ourselves to come to

greater understanding of the world

If accountability is the issue we already have ample overshysight in the form of panels that review NRC proposals and Fulbright Hays applications campus review committees of programs detailed program annual reports external evaluashytions of programs on-site visits by the Department of Education and many other mechanisms to ensure quality

If government service is the issue then it is erroneous to suggest that participants in Title VI programs come up short The University of Wisconsin-Madison where I teach is a national leader in international education and language instruction and is home to eight NRCs the largest number of national resource centers in anyone institution We also have a Title VI-funded Center for International Business Education (CIBER) and the National African Language Resource Center We teach over 40 languages on a regular basis We train a large number of the people who go into government service and international business Our doctoral graduates go on to teach in universities and colleges around the country to train new generations of students to better understand the world Many of our graduates at all levels have regularly gone into government service from the Department of Defense to the Department of State Central Intelligence Agency Peace Corps and to the Army I currently have one former PhD student working at the State Departments Office of International Womens Issues and another student who completed a year as a fellow at the Center for Democracy and Governance US Agency for International Development

In addition UW-Madisons international studies faculty provide critical expertise to the government in various capacshyities One pOlitical scientist recently served for a year as an officer in the Office of the Coordinator for Counterterrorism in the Department of State Our faculty carry out consultancies and hold briefings for the Department of Defense Department of State US Agency for International Development the United States Information Agency and the

US Congressional Committee on International Relations In addition we brief US ambassadors and diplomatic miSSions on a regular basis In this regard we are typical of other institutions that house NRCs

The claim that area studies programs adhere to a certain set of dogmas rings especially hollow I have been involved for the past 25 years with area studies programs (especially African studies and Middle East studies) as a graduate student faculty member and administrator at three institushytions I am struck not by the consensus among the faculty but by the wide differences in scholarly approaches and politshyical perspectives I have encountered Moreover one cannot assume that students themselves would uncritically absorb every view they encounter in the classroom

In sum the proposed advisory board would hamper rather than enhance our ability to strengthen international education in this country The extraordinary authority of the adviSOry board to monitor and evaluate grant reCipients would add an intrusive and potentially damaging burden to our academic programs which already conform to rigorous federal reporting requirements and reviews The Boards functions which could extend to curricular review and mandates have the potential for curtailing freedom of expression and speech which academic institutions hold dear

The proposed board would have serious consequences on the quality of our scholarship and our ability to produce people who are properly equipped to meet the challenges of working in a global context in the years ahead Ultimately it has the potential to undermine the very goal of national security it seeks to protect

Announcement

Re-Iaunch of African Journals Online (AJOL) httpwwwajolinfo The Intemational Network for Scientific Publications (INASP) launched AJOL in 1998 with only 10 joumals By January 2004 it had over 175 African joumals covering most subject areas It is now being re-Iaunched on its own website that continues to provide free access to tables of contents and abstracts for all titles - but also provides a number of additional facilities AJOL offers a docushyment delivery service and full (improved) searching and browsing facilities as well as a new Email alert function The service remains free to both users and participating joumals (with charges only for document delivshyery requests from outside developing countries)

Joumals included in AJOL are scholarly in content with peer reviewed articles and publish a mixture of pure and

applied research as well as review papers Joumals included cover Agricultural sciences and resource management Arts culture language and literature Health Science and technology and Social sciences An evaluation of the AJOL service undershytaken at the end of 2002 showed that participating joumals benefit from the intemational visibility with more intemashytional submissions and citations and that users value access to African research that they have been unable to locate from other sources Use of the service has more than doubled in the past few years (almost 4000 people registered during 2003) and the demand for document delivery tripled (reaching over 650 articles during 2003) The evaluation highlighted a need to update the website to make it easier to use with an emphasis on improved searching and retrieval of artishycles

In response to the evaluation the new

website now offers a greatly improved and more sophisticated search system and email alerting to identify new issues Joumals can also manage their own content online giving them more control over their own work We look forward to more users an increase in demand for document delivery and increased worldwide visibility for African published research

Please visit the new site shyhttpwwwajoLinfo - and sign up for email alerts to any joumals of interest

We also welcome new joumals onto the service please contact INASP for further information ajolinaspinfo or visit our website httpwwwinaspinfo You may also contact Mrs Pippa Smart Head of Publications Publishing Initiatives and Publishing Training INASP (Intemational Network for the Availability of Scientific Publications) PO Box 516 Oxford OX1 1WG UK Tel +44 (0)1865 249 909 Fax +44 (0)1865251 060

The ASA Secretariat is pleased to report that despite the inevitable initial glitches the online membership system is servshying the ASA extremely well Members appreciate its ease of use and along with the new department email and designated teleshyphone extensions on the ASA website the online membership system is already contributing to increased efficiency at the Secretariat which consequently improves the Secretariats abilshyity to respond more effectively to ASA constituent needs If you have not already had the opportunity to do so please visit wwwafricanstudiesorg and click on the link to access the online membership system to update your personal information includshying your password and any address changes or to make Annual Meeting preregistration and subscription payments or endowshy J ment or other contributions

The Secretariat has noted that some members have left portions of the hard copy and electronic membership form blank The incomplete information has several repercussions For example membership data that is as complete as accurate and as current as possible will allow the ASA to better analyze its membership profile (eg regarding such demographics as age range and gender and members professional career paths areas of interest and language abilities) and thus undertake initiatives that support the memberships concerns and goals In addition the ASA provides membership data to the National Council of Area Studies Associations (NCASA) which consists of the ASA the American Association for the Advancement of Slavic Studies the Association for Asian Studies the Latin American Studies Association and the Middle East Studies Association and to the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) which is comprised of sixty-seven scholarly organizashytions with missions that encompass a variety of different professions disciplines geographic locations and time periods The ASA maintains membership in the ACLS ASA membership data thus not only permits the ASA to learn more about itself internally and in comparison to other learned societies but it also helps to construct a profile of the larger communities of learned societies to which the ASA belongs Your efforts in completing the personal sections of the membership form are thus an important contribution not only to the ASA in particular but also to learned societies in general

The Board of Directors has launched a Membership Campaign Please encourage your colleagues and students to visit the ASA website to discover the Top Ten Reasons to Become an ASA Member and to jOin

The biographical and candidacy statements for the 2004 Board of Directors elections are included in this newsletter The candishydates statements and the ballots will be mailed to ASA members who renewed on or before the March 15 deadline Members whose renewals are processed between March 16 and August 15 will also receive ballots The returned ballots must be postmarked on or before September 1 Remember to vote

Finally - please watch the web site for up-to-date information about the 2004 Annual Meeting
