00:28Lessons from Death of Muammar Ghaddafi
Lessons from Death of Muammar Ghaddafi On Thursday, the world was greeted with the news of the death of former Libyan leader, Muammer Ghaddhafi following intensified fighting between Libyan forces and pockets of loyalists of the departed leader. The demise of Ghaddafi effectively brought to an end a 42- year old regime of oppression, dictatorship, and human rights violations. Ghaddafi’s ignominious exit raises the specter of dictatorship in Africa and its inglorious reward. The lis

Africa Public Square
In the past 8 months, four African leaders have fallen from the pinnacle of power. Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali of Tunisia, Hosni Mubarak of Egypt, Laurent Gbagbo of Ivory Coast, and lately Moumer Ghadafi of Libya all were dethroned with ignominy. Whereas Tunisian and Egyptian revolution was largely internal, the change that occurred in Ivory Coast and Libya was a combination of internal and external interventions. Some have argued that interventions in African affairs through judicial

Africa Public Square
The African woman faces challenges from all corners: cultural barriers, economic opportunity, inequality, male chauvinism, and misogyny. The place of women in development has attracted worldwide attention to the extent that United Nations recognizes the crucial role of women in all societies. The body declared 1976-1985 as the decade for women and since then observed every March 8 as the International Women’s Day. In Africa, women have made significant progress in political an

Africa Public Square
China’s growing economic influence in the world makes the United States jittery because of fears that US may lose its supremacy to the communist nation.

Africa Without Khadafy
Moumer Khadafy, the strongman of Libya and arguably the longest reigning African head of State is probably on his way out of power. The opposition movement to oust the Libyan leader has taken some twists and turns culminating in a major advance to Tripoli, the capital city of the North African country. In his 42 years of rule, Khadafy has proved to be a quintessential dictator. The immediate family constitutes the government, the army, and other levers of administration. He undermined c

Africa's Identity Crises
In the United States of America, Africans are the only ones identified by their continent and not by their countries of origin. We often hear about Irish-American, Pakistani-American, Russian-American, and Polish-American. You hardly hear about Ghanaian-American, Togolese-American or Zimbabwean-American. Why has this pattern persisted? Has it got to do with the image of Africa and the continuing decolonization processess? Our Guest and eminent social Science professor, Dr. Tak will join u
