Abstract:
Based on three case studies of artifacts from 18th century collections preserved in Swiss cultural institutions, I attempt to rethink the use of the word "colonial" before the 19th century, and to apply it to describe collections from the modern period. I attempt to shed light on how these collections could be exhibited to provide critical perspective on these artefacts and the stories they are allowed to tell, in view of the upcoming exhibition entitled Exotic Switzerland? A Global History of the Enlightenment to open in 2020 at the Palais de Rumine in Lausanne.

Abstract:
Les collections de restes ancestraux des populations autochtones de l’Afrique australe gardées dans les musées et les instituts de recherche ou laboratoires universitaires semblent être l’exemple par excellence de collection anthropologique « problématique », pour laquelle « undoing Empire » [Rassool, 2015b] préconise une restitution aux descendants contemporains. Mais cette restitution n’occasionne pas uniquement un « simple » ré-enterrement des restes, mais aussi un dialogue avec les descendants autour du statut des matériaux ethnographiques bruts des anthropologues ayant étudié les populations autochtones Khoe-khoe et San : carnets de terrain, fiches d’inventaire, photographies, moulages en plâtre, enregistrements sonores, ainsi qu’autour des recherches menées actuellement (ou dans le futur) sur ces collections. En me focalisant sur quelques études de cas sud-africaines, je montre que les concertations autour des collections et des savoirs résultant de l’analyse de ces collections opposent de multiples acteurs et logiques, locales, nationales et transnationales, qui vont bien au-delà de l’opposition simplificatrice « scientifiques » vs « populations descendantes ». Les différents acteurs et logiques sont souvent contradictoires, mais il faut en tenir compte au moment de la création des bases de données et des infrastructures numériques partagées pour qu’on puisse remettre en cause (au lieu de les consolider) « les archives coloniales et leurs modes d’administration de la preuve » [Lalu, 2009].

Alors que sont attendus en 2014 les célébrations du centième anniversaire de la Grande Guerre ainsi que du soixante-dixième anniversaire de la Libération de la France, cet article réunit des éléments de documentation, une bibliographie et une filmographie sommaires sur le thème des tirailleurs, travailleurs indigènes et soldats des outre-mer au travers des deux guerres mondiales. Il explore les différents procédés qui ont permis de valoriser le patrimoine de tradition des troupes indigènes : tenues et insignes spécifiques, monuments du souvenir, organisation de cérémonies militaires, valorisation des collections conservées dans les musées ou les salles d’honneur du ministère de la Défense. Depuis les années 1960, l’armée française s’efforce ainsi de préserver la mémoire des soldats et « morts pour la France » recrutés dans les colonies de l’empire. Par sa transmission aux jeunes générations de combattants, ce patrimoine matériel et immatériel est un élément de la culture d’arme qui contribue à la capacité opérationnelle des forces.

Abstract:
Human remains were considered fundamental elements in the conformation of the collections of anthropological museums from their beginnings in the 19th century. Controversies around legitimacy and ethical considerations about the exhibition of bodies and human remains in museums, mainly those that were obtained through violence or plunder in colonial contexts, have resulted in the return by many centers of these remains to their cultures of origin or at least their removal from public exhibition. Imprints from the face or other body parts, obtained from living in individuals belonging to different cultures became a precious piece of collection for museums. Some issues are set out in the text about the consideration of these masks and molds as an instrument of scientific analysis for the raciological anthropology of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, together with its importance as an object of commercial exchange. Finally a reflection is made on the possibilities of these molds to spread messages and transmit ideas different from the racial ones that originally justified their elaboration. Los restos humanos fueron considerados elementos fundamentales en la conformación de las colecciones de los museos antropológicos desde sus comienzos en el siglo XIX. Las controversias en torno a la legitimidad y las consideraciones éticas acerca de la exhibición de los cuerpos y restos humanos en los museos, fundamentalmente de los que fueron obtenidos mediante violencia o expolio en los contextos coloniales, han desembocado en que muchos centros hayan restituido estos restos a sus culturas de origen o al menos los hayan retirado de la exhibición pública. Las mascarillas faciales, y los vaciados de otras partes del cuerpo, obtenidos sobre el vivo en individuos pertenecientes a los distintos grupos humanos se convirtieron en una preciada pieza de colección para los museos. En el texto se exponen algunas cuestiones acerca de la consideración de estas máscaras y moldes como instrumento de análisis científico para la antropología raciológica de fines del siglo XIX y principios del XX, junto a su importancia como objeto de intercambio comercial. Finalmente se reflexiona acerca de las posibilidades de estos moldes para divulgar mensajes y transmitir ideas diferentes a las raciales que en su día justificaron su elaboración.

Abstract:
Four collections that originated in the context of formal or informal colonialism served as hosts for the workshop on “Decolonizing academic disciplines and collections” at the University of Marburg: the pharmacognostic, anatomical, and ethnographic collection and the Museum of Religions. Historically, the related academic disciplines had grown based on the study of items often appropriated against the will of source communities. Decolonizing has to go beyond the material aspect of negotiating the future treatment of collections, by examining the role of colonial injustice and transcending Eurocentric taxonomies of academic knowledge as well as pursuing ways of advocacy for the communities of origin. This opening article sets the scene of academic collections within which the rest of the discussions are conducted.

Abstract:
Cette thèse propose de suivre la trajectoire d'instruments de musique non-européens acquis en période coloniale pour les musées parisiens. Elle questionne ainsi les effets de la patrimonialisation de ces objets d'usage, aux provenances et aux contextes d'acquisition variés, sur leur conservation matérielle depuis leur acquisition à la fin du XIXe siècle jusqu'à nos jours. La mise en collection de biens culturels entraîne l'instauration de nouveaux gestes parfois très éloignés de ceux qui étaient employés pour leurs usages antérieurs. Ceux-ci témoignent des nouvelles fonctions attribuées à l'objet dont la conservation matérielle devient primordiale. La patrimonialisation des instruments de musique suscite des questionnements spécifiques liés à l'évocation, au maintien, voire à la réactivation de leur fonctionnalité. Pour les collections non-européennes, cette appréhension complexe se double de problématiques liées au fait de conserver, présenter et valoriser un objet culturellement éloigné du professionnel et du visiteur. Les parcours de ces instruments déplacés, intimement liés au développement de l'ethnologie et à l'histoire coloniale française et européenne, soulèvent des questions complexes tant du point de vue de l'histoire des collections que de celui des politiques publiques. En se fondant sur l'analyse historique et matérielle d'un corpus de luths conservés au Musée de la musique (Cité de la Musique - Philharmonie de Paris) et au musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac, acquis à partir de 1872 par le musée Instrumental du Conservatoire national de musique et le musée d'ethnographie du Trocadéro, ce travail explore les liens entre traces muséales et mémoires coloniales. Le geste du praticien ne pouvant être dissocié du contexte dans lequel il intervient, cette thèse vise à repositionner les pratiques muséales dans leurs contextes historiques et institutionnels. La trace matérielle devient alors le témoin du regard porté sur ces instruments et éclaire l'histoire muséale des collections issues de contextes coloniaux à l'heure où de nouvelles réflexions, portées par les débats sur leurs acquisitions, visent à une prise en charge éthique de ces biens culturels
This thesis examines the trajectory of non-European musical instruments acquired for Paris museums during the colonial period. It considers the effects of the patrimonialisation of these objects of use, which come from a variety of origins and acquisition contexts, on their material conservation from their acquisition at the end of the nineteenth century to the present day. Putting cultural artefacts into collections leads to the introduction of new procedures, sometimes far from those used for their previous purposes. These practices reflect the new functions assigned to the object, whose material preservation has become essential. The preservation of musical instruments raises specific questions relating to the evocation, maintenance and even reactivation of their functionality. In the case of non-European collections, these complex issues are combined with the problems of conserving and displaying an object that is culturally distant to both professionals and visitors. The paths taken by these relocated instruments, which are closely linked to the development of ethnology and to French and European colonial history, raise complex issues from the point of view of both the history of collections and public policy. Based on a historical and material analysis of a corpus of lutes held at the Musée de la Musique (Cité de la Musique - Philharmonie de Paris) and the Musée du Quai Branly - Jacques Chirac, acquired from 1872 onwards by the Instrumental Museum of the Conservatoire National de Musique and the Musée d'Ethnographie du Trocadéro, this research explores the links between museum traces and colonial memories. As the practitioner's gesture cannot be dissociated from the context in which it takes place, this dissertation aims to reposition museum practices in their historical and institutional contexts. The physical trace thus becomes a witness to the way in which these instruments are perceived, shedding light on the museum history of collections from colonial contexts at a time when new thinking, prompted by debates on their acquisition, is aiming to take ethical responsibility for these cultural artefacts

Full text
Abstract:
Ce travail de thèse a pour objectif de retracer l’histoire transnationale de l’Équateur et de la France de 1875 à 1929, période d’échanges scientifiques, culturels et politiques qui déterminent la structure des pratiques du collectionnisme « amérindien » et du phénomène muséal dans ces deux nations. L’enquête historiographique dans différents fonds archivistiques et muséaux de l’Équateur et de la France a permis d’éclaircir les étapes constitutives à la formation des collections scolaires, municipales et ethnographiques par des agencies différentes – voyageurs, scientifiques, ou diplomates – qui opèrent au nom de la science, de la patrie et des nouvelles dynamiques capitalistes. Ces réseaux de sociabilité développés entre les savants transnationaux ont permis de distinguer ensuite des acteurs considérés comme secondaires (à savoir le paysagiste Édouard André ou le huaquero éclairé Alcides Destruge), d’identifier des collections « perdues » (d’Auguste Cousin, de Dominique-Vivant Denon, et notamment le Trésor de Cuenca) et de constater l’influence muséale entre l’Équateur et la France lors de la mise en œuvre des musées scolaires, municipaux et ethnographiques. Les objets collectés sont ainsi pensés comme des sources documentaires qui structurent le développement de la science globale et de la construction des États-nations modernes. Ce sont les élites franco-équatoriennes qui – motivées par leurs intérêts économiques, politiques et nationalistes – se chargent de présenter lors des expositions universelles de Paris la culture matérielle de la nation sous le prisme du discours colonial. Les nouveaux musées qui sont créés par la suite vont véhiculer cette image d’un pays exotique (sauvage et incasique) qui est diffusée jusqu’au siècle suivant en tant que représentation objective de la modernité occidentale
The purpose of this thesis is to retrace the history of the transnational exchange between Ecuador and France from 1875 to 1929. This was a period of scientific, cultural and political exchange that determined the structure of the practices for collecting Indigenous objects, and the beginning of the museum phenomenon in these two nations. The historiographic survey of various archival and museum collections in Ecuador and France has made it possible to shed light on the nascent stages of the formation of school, municipal and ethnographic collections by different agencies (travelers, scientists, or diplomats) that were operating in the name of science, their homeland, and the new capitalist dynamics. These social networks that developed between the scholars of these two nations made it possible to distinguish between actors that were considered secondary (namely the landscape architect Édouard André or the huaquero éclairé Alcides Destruge), to identify “lost” collections (such as the collections of Auguste Cousin, Dominique-Vivant Denon, and the Trésor de Cuenca), and to analyze the influence between Ecuador and France during the stages in which the school, municipal and ethnographic museums were being set up. Thus, the artefacts that were collected are considered as documental sources that contributed to order the development of global science and the construction of modern nation-states. The Franco-Ecuadorian elites that were motivated by their economic, political and nationalist interests were responsible for presenting national material culture through the prism of the colonial discourse at international exhibitions in Paris. The new museums that were subsequently created would convey this image of an exotic country (savage and Incan) that will be presented as an objective representation of Western modernity until the following century

Abstract:
In the second half of the nineteenth century and the first decades of the twentieth century the collecting of objects from colonized countries and their subsequent display in western museums was widespread throughout Western Europe. How and why these collections were made, the processes of collection, and by whom, has only recently begun to be addressed. This thesis is an exploration of the ethnographic collection of Gertrude Emily Benham (1867-1938) who made eight voyages independently around the world from 1904 until 1938, during which time she amassed a collection of approximately eight hundred objects, which she donated to Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery in 1935. It considers how and why she formed her collection and how, as a an amateur and marginalised collector, she can be located within discourses on ethnographic collecting. The thesis is organised by geographical regions in order to address the different contact zones of colonialism as well as to contextualise Benham within the cultural milieu in which she collected and the global collection of objects that she collected. An interdisciplinary perspective was employed to create a dialogue between anthropology, geography, museology, postcolonial and feminist theory to address the complex issues of colonial collecting. Benham is located within a range of intersecting histories: colonialism, travel, collecting, and gender. This study is the first in-depth examination of Benham as a collector and adds to the knowledge and understanding of Benham and her collection in Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery. It contributes to the discourse on ethnographic collectors and collecting and in doing so it acknowledges the agency and contribution of marginal collectors to resituate them as a central and intrinsic component in the formation of the ethnographic museum. In addition, and central to this, is the agency and role of indigenous people in forming ethnographic collections. The thesis offers a foundation for further research into women ethnographic collectors and a more nuanced and inclusive account of ethnographic collecting.

Abstract:
Consacrée aux collections africaines des officiers coloniaux français, cette recherche soulève la question de l’exploration et de la conquête de l’Afrique à la fin du XIXè siècle et au début du XXè siècle. Parmi les explorateurs envoyés par les pays européens pour coloniser les populations africaines figurent des hommes de couches sociales et de professions différentes. On peut citer, par exemple, les missionnaires, les administrateurs, les militaires. Il est privilégié ici l’étude de l’action coloniale des officiers français engagés dans une série de régions (Mali, Sénégal, Congo, Tchad, République Centrafricaine…). Lors des missions d’exploration, ces hommes y découvraient un éventail d’objets (armes, instruments de musique, objets d’utilité quotidienne, objets rituels…) qu’ils collectaient sous l’incitation des instructions reçues en France avant leur départ. Il convient d’étudier les provenances géographiques et les conditions d’acquisition de ces objets afin de dégager la particularité des collections rassemblées par les officiers. Au terme de leurs périples, ceux-ci rapportaient en France ces collections qu’ils offraient aux musées comme le Musée de l’Homme et le Musée de l’Armée. Aujourd’hui, le Musée du Quai Branly conserve de précieux dossiers sur ces militaires (Archinard, Brazza, Marchand, Tilho…) ainsi que les traces de leurs dons. Après avoir répertorié environ 1500 objets dont l’histoire est indissociable à celle de la colonisation de l’Afrique, on déduit que ces oeuvres constituent un véritable héritage colonial permettant d’analyser la vision européenne et la perception des militaires français par rapport à la culture matérielle africaine. Par ailleurs, l’étude de cet acquis colonial peut révéler le degré de civilisation des populations locales qui avaient fabriqué et utilisé les articles concernés à la fin du XIXè siècle et au début du XXè siècle
This research concerns the French officers contribution during the colonization of Africa and the quality of the african objects that they collected. It aims to study the exploration and the conquest of Africa at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. During this period, European countries sent in the different parts of the continent many explorers to colonize the population. Those explorers had different social classes and jobs. Among them, there were, for example, religious persons, administrators and soldiers. It is the colonial action of the French officers in the different countries of Africa (Mali, Senegal, Congo, Chad, Central Africa Republic…) that is studing. During the exploration travel, the colonial officers discovered in those countries different kinds of objects. According of the instructions they received in France before their travel, they collected the local objects as the arms, the royal objects, the music objects, the cooking objects, the objects of the traditional ceremony. It’s interesting to study where the objects provided and the conditions of the collect. It’s a best way to know the particularities of the result of the officers discoveries. At the end of the journey in Africa, the officers brought to France the result of the collect and offered the objects to the French museums as the Musée de l’Homme, the Musée de l’Armée. Today, the Musée du Quai Branly is conserving the documents about the exploration travels of many officers (Archinard, Brazza, Marchand, Tilho, Lenfant…) and some of the objects they had collected for studying the customs of the African populations. We interroged about 1500 objects they had collected. The history of those objects is associated to the Africa colonization history. Nowadays, those objects constitute a colonial heritage and permit to analyze the European vision and the military perception about the African material culture and to know the degree of the civilization of the African populations who made and used those objects in Africa at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th

History
Ph.D.
The dissertation explores the intellectual history of the interconnection of European and African ideas about race and space in 19th-century European imperialism. I examine German colonial geographies of East Africa, meaning not only cartography, but the new discipline of human geography, which studies the relationship between people and their environment. Germans and East Africans together produced a hybrid geography that combined precolonial conceptions of race and space and race from both Europe and Africa, and race explicitly entered German governance for the first time. By analyzing changes in how both Germans and East Africans imagined geographical relationships, I argue, we can better understand the ways in which they developed new conceptions of themselves and the world at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries. The project traces the history of German racial thinking to a specific, earlier colonial context than other scholars have argued. It also brings a spatial dimension to studies of the colonial state in Africa in order to understand the ways in which spaces have become imbued with racial and ethnic meaning over the last century and a half.

Abstract:
Cette thèse examine les liens entre l'étude du passé et la mise en place et le fonctionnement de l'administration coloniale en Inde. Un processus d'inventaire, de description et de conservation des vestiges matériels de la civilisation indienne se développe au moment où l'East India Company (EIC) se transforme en puissance politique, gouvernant un nombre croissant de territoires du sous-continent. La multiplication des travaux sur les antiquités, encouragée par la création de l'Asiatic Society du Bengale, la fondation de musées à Londres et à Calcutta et l'instauration de mesures d'entretien et de réparation d'édifices en sont autant de manifestations. Les employés civils et militaires de l'EIC qui mènent des recherches antiquaires et collectionnent des objets (statues, inscriptions, monnaies, etc. ) sont au coeur de ce mouvement. Ils sont donc les protagonistes de cette étude, qui analyse également le rôle des informateurs, des assistants et des savants indiens, ainsi que celui de l'EIC en tant qu'institution. La présentation de la contribution des différents acteurs permet d'éclairer les méthodes et les concepts qui sous-tendent l'étude des antiquités indiennes, inspirés en partie de celle des antiquités européennes, mais aussi les finalités de l'exploration et de la conservation des monuments, dont les enjeux sont à la fois savants et politiques. Cette thèse se situe ainsi à la croisée de l'histoire coloniale, de l'histoire de l'orientalisme et de celle de l'antiquariat
This dissertation explores the relationship between the study of the past and the rise and functioning of colonial administration in India. Description and preservation of material remains of Indian civilization developed as the East India Company (EIC) became a political power in India, ruling a growing number of territories. Proliferation of works on antiquities, encouraged by the creation of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, foundation of museums at London and Calcutta, promotion of care and repair of selected buildings all attest to that process. Civil and military employees of the EIC who undertake antiquarian researches and collect objects (statues, inscriptions, coins, etc. ) lie at the heart of that movement. This study also details the role of Indian assistants, informants and scholars, as well as that of the EIC as an institution. Through an analysis of the contribution of those various actors, it throws light upon methods and concepts underlying investigation or Indian antiquities, partly inspired by that of European antiquities. It also examines the ends of exploration and preservation of monuments, which deal with both scholar and political spheres. This dissertation thus lies at the junction of colonial history, history of orientalism and that of antiquarianism

Full text
Abstract:
As tangible manifestations of past and present interactions between humans and the material world, objects force us to reckon with the messy and often contradictory aspects of history. The establishment of the British Solomon Islands Protectorate in 1893 marked the formalisation of European control and dominance over the region, and brought about the cessation or alteration of many cultural traditions and practices. The transformations of the subsequent twenty years brought Islanders, colonial officers, and plantations owners together in the formation of a colonial society predicated on hierarchies of race and economics. Focusing on the museum collections of Charles Morris Woodford (1852-1927), an amateur naturalist and first Resident Commissioner to the Solomons, and Arthur Mahaffy (1869-1919), the first District Officer of the region, this thesis elucidates colonial micro-histories and indigenous perspectives embodied in these forms. Utilising these collections, alongside the men’s writings, photographs, and archival colonial records, this project reveals the various strategies and techniques employed to create their collections in the field and the complexities of the period’s cross-cultural interactions. The thesis also contributes to current ethnohistorical and theoretical understandings of how social relations are made and embodied in objects, complicates current colonial histories of the Solomons, and methodologically demonstrates the potentials of collections in historical based anthropological research.

Abstract:
This article presents part of the doctoral research carried out on raw earth constructions in the central zone of Chile between the 16th and 19th centuries, especifically in the so-called Chilean Colonial House, or Casa Patronal. The origin of this building typology is attributed to construction models and systems from Spain, such as the case of the Andalusian House, which was inserted in the construction culture of Chile since the foundation of the first cities of the country. Thus, the cities were continously evolving, firstly characterized by a large number of constructions of defense, but later after, diverse types of constructions were introduced, such as houses, churches and enclosure walls. Currently, more than fifty of these houses are preserved, which have resisted the historical seismic action recorded since the 16th Century, and whose last major event occurred on February 27, 2010, magnitude of 8.8 Mw, which revealed the precariousness and abandonment of the country's built heritage, especially of these types constructions. The methodology used for the study includes four stages. Firstly, the research and bibliographic review; secondly, field researches and collection of records in various Houses in the central zone of Chile; thirdly, the Systemic Method was applied in order to develop a diagnosis of the current situation of the case studies. This stage includes the application of the Chilean regulation for Constructions of Raw Earth NCh3332 of the year 2013. Finally, the fourth stage is focused on the analysis and discussion of the results, including conclusions regarding this matter. This document includes the progress of the study carried out up to the third stage of the doctoral research, which is the first part of the "Initial cycle of knowledge of buildings.” This study aimes to provide and expand the range of tools for the diagnosis of the current situation of buildings, based on the analyses performed in three cases studies.

Abstract:
Almost all official statistical services in Africa were introduced during the colonial era with the setting up of statistical units in the colonies and territories whose functions were largely determined by the ruling colonial powers. In East Africa, the service was set up in 1926 as the Statistical Section of the East African Governors' Conference with a mandate of "collecting statistics gradually, on the same method, throughout the territories, and to tabulate and compare results so that true inferences can be drawn" (Singh, 1971). Nigeria's statistical office was established in 1947 wither personnel deployed from the Treasury, Customs and Office of the Chief Secretary.

Abstract:
It is a well-known fact that there has been extensive documentation of African traditional arts in post-colonial Africa, which has contributed to the growing accumulation of field recordings in Africa that could form the nucleus for archives in individual African countries. These include private collections as well as recordings at broadcasting and television stations; government ministries such as Tourism, Culture and Information; museums and academic institutions. Sadly, these precious traditions – which have been expensively captured – are often not properly managed in their host institutions. The caretakers of this heritage mostly sit by as collections deteriorate and sometimes are disposed of due to lack of institutional support. Such practices prevail in most African archives. This paper proposes a new mode of consciousness of the value of audiovisual heritage materials by comparing them with human babies. This new archival management principle, ‘the baby nursing model’, has been adopted and practiced at the University of Ghana and has achieved positive results.

Abstract:
A comienzos del siglo XX se implementaron tres modelos de planeamiento urbano en Colombia: el embellecimiento urbano historicista, la Ciudad jardín y la Ciudad funcional. Simultáneamente, se repudiaron y amalgamaron, dinámicas de las cuales surgieron los pensamientos prospectivos sobre las ciudades colombianas. El conflicto de intereses ideológicos, sociales, económicos y políticos que conllevaron estos lineamientos nacionales de desarrollo urbano es estudiado en Ibagué, población que debió asumir su transformación de ignorada aldea colonial a ciudad capital de Departamento y centro logístico y comercial del país, de acuerdo a su posición geográfica. Las interpretaciones para estas dinámicas proceden del examen comparativo de las actas notariales, la cartografía histórica, las publicaciones periódicas y las colecciones fotográficas de la época. In the early twentieth century were carried out three models of urban planning in Colombia: City beautiful, Garden city and Funtional city. At the same time, were repudiated and amalgamated, dynamics of which emerged prospective thoughts on Colombian cities. The conflict of ideological, social, economic and political interests that led to these national guidelines of urban development is studied in Ibague, that must assume its transformation from an ignored departmental colonial town to the capital city of Deparment and the logistical and commercial center of the country, according to its geographical position. Interpretations for this dynamic come from the comparative examination of the affidavits, historical maps, periodicals and photographic collections of this time.

Abstract:
The overflow of river water is always unstoppable and becomes a high puddle in the city of Jakarta which will soon relinquish its status as the capital of the Republic of Indonesia. When talking about rivers, it is known that the formation of a city that has rivers and canals cannot be separated from urban planning in the Dutch Colonial era, even earlier in the era of Prince Jayakarta, the first ruler of the city of Batavia. This study aims to find and retell the history of the heyday of rivers in Jakarta in their golden era which were beautiful, clean, livable and became the pride of the city at that time. This research use a qualitative method with storytelling and narrative lines, as well as descriptions. Data collection was obtained from literature sources focussing in the Ciliwung River, Jakarta. The conclusion was closed with a big question: can this beauty be repeated and make the river one of the socio-spatial media in the development of urban planning? What can stakeholders do so that the river becomes an icon of a sustainable urban environment and can be more useful for the community in improving their economy.

Full text
Abstract:
Colonial National Historical Park (COLO) in eastern Virginia was established for its historical significance, but significant paleontological resources are also found within its boundaries. The bluffs around Yorktown are composed of sedimentary rocks and deposits of the Yorktown Formation, a marine unit deposited approximately 4.9 to 2.8 million years ago. When the Yorktown Formation was being deposited, the shallow seas were populated by many species of invertebrates, vertebrates, and micro-organisms which have left body fossils and trace fossils behind. Corals, bryozoans, bivalves, gastropods, scaphopods, worms, crabs, ostracodes, echinoids, sharks, bony fishes, whales, and others were abundant. People have long known about the fossils of the Yorktown area. Beginning in the British colonial era, fossiliferous deposits were used to make lime and construct roads, while more consolidated intervals furnished building stone. Large shells were used as plates and dippers. Collection of specimens for study began in the late 17th century, before they were even recognized as fossils. The oldest image of a fossil from North America is of a typical Yorktown Formation shell now known as Chesapecten jeffersonius, probably collected from the Yorktown area and very likely from within what is now COLO. Fossil shells were observed by participants of the 1781 siege of Yorktown, and the landmark known as “Cornwallis Cave” is carved into rock made of shell fragments. Scientific description of Yorktown Formation fossils began in the early 19th century. At least 25 fossil species have been named from specimens known to have been discovered within COLO boundaries, and at least another 96 have been named from specimens potentially discovered within COLO, but with insufficient locality information to be certain. At least a dozen external repositories and probably many more have fossils collected from lands now within COLO, but again limited locality information makes it difficult to be sure. This paleontological resource inventory is the first of its kind for Colonial National Historical Park (COLO). Although COLO fossils have been studied as part of the Northeast Coastal Barrier Network (NCBN; Tweet et al. 2014) and, to a lesser extent, as part of a thematic inventory of caves (Santucci et al. 2001), the park had not received a comprehensive paleontological inventory before this report. This inventory allows for a deeper understanding of the park’s paleontological resources and compiles information from historical papers as well as recently completed field work. In summer 2020, researchers went into the field and collected eight bulk samples from three different localities within COLO. These samples will be added to COLO’s museum collections, making their overall collection more robust. In the future, these samples may be used for educational purposes, both for the general public and for employees of the park.

Full text
Abstract:
Breeding colonies of wading birds (orders Ciconiiformes, Pelecaniformes) and seabirds (orders Suliformes, Pelecaniformes) serve as important indicators of aquatic ecosystem health, as they respond to changes in food abundance and quality, contaminants, invasive species, and disturbance. The Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan, Restoration Coordination & Verification program (CERP-RECOVER) has identified wading-bird colonies as an important ecosystem restoration indicator. The National Park Service South Florida/Caribbean Inventory & Monitoring Network (SFCN) ranked colonial nesting birds eighth out of 44 vital signs of park natural resource conditions for ecological significance and feasibility. However, while large-scale monitoring efforts are occurring in the rest of the Greater Everglades Ecosystem, only minimal historic data collection and no extensive ongoing monitoring of wading bird and seabird nesting have occurred in Biscayne National Park. Consequently, due to their high importance as biological indicators and because they are a gap occurring in regional monitoring efforts, the network has initiated a monitoring program of colonial nesting birds in Biscayne National Park. This protocol provides the rationale, approach, and detailed Standard Operating Procedures for annual colonial bird monitoring within and close to Biscayne National Park and conforms to the Oakley et al. (2003) guidelines for National Park Service long-term monitoring protocols. The specific objectives of this monitoring program are to determine status and long-term trends in: Numbers and locations of active colonies of colonial nesting birds with a special focus on Double-crested Cormorants, Great Egrets, Great White Herons, Great Blue Herons, White Ibises, and Roseate Spoonbills. Annual peak active nest counts of colonial nesting birds in Biscayne National Park with a special focus on the species mentioned above. An annual nesting index (i.e., sum of monthly nest counts) with a special focus on the species mentioned above. Timing of peak nest counts for the focal species.

‘Decolonising Education – Fostering Conversations’ is a project funded by RECAP involving Coventry University (CU) and Deakin University. While originated as a comparative study focussing on exploring respective decolonisation practices and discourses from staff and student perspectives, the pandemic forced a shift where Coventry focused data collection and developments were complemented, informed and supported by literatures, histories, institutional perspectives, and methodologies emerging from Indigenous Australians’ struggle against colonialism. Our aims are (1) map what is happening in our institution in terms of decolonisation, and (2) to explore accessible and inclusive ways of broadening the conversation about this important topic.

Full text
Abstract:
The habitats within Biscayne National Park consist of rocky coast lines, Biscayne Bay (a shallow water bay), over 40 mangrove islands, and coral reefs. This ecosystem lies near the large metropolitan area of Miami, suburban development, a nuclear power plant, and has several canals that drain from the mainland into Biscayne National Park or close to park boundaries. As a result of the park?s proximity to a large population, it endures heavy usage. The park is a popular destination for anglers and boaters. All the aforementioned factors put stressors on the park ecosystem. The South Florida/Caribbean Network has developed a long-term monitoring program that focuses on the colonial nesting birds that use park resources for foraging, roosting, and nesting. The South Florida/Caribbean Network uses monthly helicopter flights to survey nine nesting colonies in or near the park. The nine colonies monitored are: Kings Road, Mangrove Key, West Arsenicker Key, Arsenicker Key, Jones Lagoon, Ragged Key 4, Ragged Key 5, Soldier Key, and Kings Bay. We focus on six species of birds: double-crested cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus), great egrets (Ardea alba), great white herons (Ardea herodias occidentalis), great blue herons (Ardea herodias), white ibises (Eudocimus albus), and roseate spoonbills (Platalea ajaja). Data collection for this vital sign began in 2009. This report presents data regarding peak nesting, nesting indices, species abundance, and the nine nesting colonies. No forecasts are presented from the data collected in this report. Peak nest counts for five of the six focal species were lower in 2021?2022 than 2020?2021, except for white ibis, which increased relative to the previous nesting season. For the fourth consecutive season, peak nest counts for double-crested cormorants remain under 1,000 nests. For the number of species actively nesting by colony, our data indicate that two colonies increased, four colonies decreased, and three colonies remained the same relative to the previous nesting season. At least one of the focal species nested at all nine colonies, which has been consistent since the start of surveys.

This list compiles literature relevant to the bourgeoning Indigenous-led conservation movement, be that through Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas (IPCAs, Canada), Indigenous and Community Conserved Areas (ICCAs, global), or various other forms of Indigenous-led governance or co-governance mechanisms that elevate Indigenous rights, responsibilities, and legal traditions. The introductory Colonial Conservation section is not exhaustive, but rather provides context for the main import of the collection, which is to highlight the possibilities, successes, and challenges associated with decolonizing conservation through Indigenous-led governance. The list is global in scope but has been shaped by the Indigenous Circle of Experts’ (2018) report, We Rise Together, which provides recommendations for facilitating IPCAs in Canada. The majority of the pieces are peer-reviewed, however some print media has also been included.

Moore, Mick. Glimpses of Fiscal States in Sub-Saharan Africa. Institute of Development Studies (IDS), October 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/ictd.2021.022.

Full text
Abstract:
There is a widespread perception that taxing in sub-Saharan Africa has been and remains fraught with problems or government failure. This is not generally true. For more than a century, colonial administrations and independent states have steadily developed the capacity to routinely collect more substantial revenues than one might expect in a low-income region. The two main historical dimensions of this collection capacity were (a) powerful, centralized bureaucracies focused on achieving revenue collection targets and (b) large, taxable international trade sectors. In recent decades, those centralized bureaucracies have to some extent been reformed such that in structure and procedure they resemble more closely tax administrations in OECD countries. More strikingly, nearly all states have adopted VAT and found it to be a very powerful revenue collection instrument. However, the tax share of GDP has been broadly constant for several decades, and it will be hard to increase it. It is difficult for African governments to effectively tax transnational corporations, especially in the mining and energy sectors, which are of growing importance. Tax administrations continue to approach richer Africans with a light touch, and to exaggerate the potential for taxing small-scale (‘informal’) enterprises. The revenue operations of sub-national governments are often opaque. Ordinary people often pay large sums in ‘informal taxes’ that are generally regressive in impact. And the standard direction of travel in the reform of tax policy and administration is not appropriate to those large areas, especially in the Sahel, that are afflicted by internal and cross-border armed conflicts.
