Gender and Colonialism


Book Description

This book deals with colonialism on a Namibian periphery and considers both the German colonial period as well as South African rule in the country. The marginality of the Kaoko region within this colonial topography of power is analysed as a dynamic and fractured feature where power relations and constellations remained highly contested. The dynamics of gender within a regional society constituted of men and women, African and European, receive special attention within frameworks engaging with colonial photography, oral histories and gendered visions.













The Oshakati Human Settlement Improvement Project


Book Description

This paper describes and analyses the characteristics of informal economic enterprises and entrepreneurs in four specific shanty areas in the town of Oshakati in the Oshana (part of former Owambo) region. The upgrading of physical infrastructure and housing in these areas is part of the Oshakati human settlement improvement project (OHSIP) which is financed by the Danish NGO Ibis and scheduled for the period 1993-1995. This paper presents some concrete proposals how Ibis and OHSIP can contribute to income generation and employment, either through its own activities or by facilitating the involvement of others.
