His Master's Voice

Mass Communication and Single-party Politics in Guinea Under Sékou Touré

By: Mohamed Saliou Camara

His Master's Voice refutes the simplistic pattern of condescending criticism versus a complacent justification which often transpires from the debate on post-colonial Africa's general departure from political pluralism toward autocracy under single-party regimes. Hence, it places the debate in the historical context of statecraft and nation-building, whereby the line between pre-colonial heritage, colonial legacy and post-colonial innovations - against all appearances - has chiefly been a thin one.

Historical Dictionary of Guinea

By: Mohamed Saliou Camara,Thomas O'Toole,Janice E. Baker

The most significant thing about Guinea is its potential. It is strategically located in West Africa, with a well-educated and hardworking population, and endowed with considerable natural resources, indeed, enough to make it reasonably affluent if properly utilized. But this potential has never really been tapped, due mainly to bad politics with military men following a charismatic politician, until finally democracy has been achieved. So, more than half-a-century after achieving independence, the question remains unanswered: which way will Guinea turn? This fifth edition of Historical Dictionary of Guinea covers the full scope of Guinea’s history. This is done through a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 800 cross-referenced entries on key events, leaders, governmental, international, religious, and other private organizations, policies, political movements and parties, economic elements and many other areas that have shaped the country’s trajectory. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Guinea.

Health and Human Security in the Mano River Union

Liberia, Sierra Leone, Guinea, and Côte d'Ivoire

By: Mohamed Saliou Camara

This book is a study of the challenges facing the Mano River Union (MRU) countries of Liberia, Sierra Leone, Guinea, and Côte d’Ivoire, with respect to health security and human security. The study is conducted against the backdrop of the 2014-2016 Ebola outbreak in Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone, and in conjunction with the impact on human security of the civil wars that engulfed Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Côte d’Ivoire in recent decades. The author explores the state of public health and national health systems across the sub-region with a view to identifying the underlying institutional and societal challenges facing each nation-state, as well as the potential for enhancing national health systems and creating an integrated regional system of health security. Furthermore, the author examines the challenges facing the MRU countries in the broader context of human security which encompasses physical and mental health; food security; environmental security; political security including law and order; and community security, such as the protection and empowerment of vulnerable segments of the population. The author concludes by recommending deeper regional integration, supranational governance and sovereign collective self-reliance within the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) as the most viable strategic approach to the pervasive health and human security challenges in West Africa.

The Most Secret Memory of Men

A Novel

By: Mohamed Mbougar Sarr

A gripping literary mystery in the vein of Bolaño’s Savage Detectives, this coming-of-age novel unravels the fascinating life of a maligned Black author, based on Yambo Ouologuem. The first Sub-Saharan African winner of France’s top literary prize, the Goncourt. In 2018, Diégane Latyr Faye, a young Senegalese writer in Paris, discovers a legendary book from the 1930s, The Labyrinth of Inhumanity. No one knows what became of its author, once hailed as the “Black Rimbaud,” after the book caused a scandal. Enthralled by this mystery, Diégane decides to search for T.C. Elimane, going down a path that will force him to confront the great tragedies of history, from colonialism to the Holocaust. Alongside his investigation, Diégane becomes part of a group of young African writers in Paris. Together they talk, drink, make love, philosophize about the role of exile in artistic creation. Diégane grows particularly close to two women: the seductive Siga, who holds so many secrets, and the photojournalist Aïda, impossible to pin down. The Most Secret Memory of Men is an astonishing novel about the choice between living and writing, and the desire to transcend the divide between Africa and the West. Above all, it is an ode to literature and its timelessness.

Redefining the Citizen of the New Millennium

When the Sanctuary Becomes a Ghost, We Should All Be Firefighters

By: Mohamed Diallo

Rising above expectations is one thing and moving on is another. With great achievement comes great responsibility. In a century where automation is rapidly taking place, millions of people are losing their jobs, and human effort is being replaced by computers, and the stress level has dramatically increased. It has caused many families to relocate because of the inability of the household to financially sustain itself. Sadly, human beings within the first two decades of the twenty-first century have failed to act or rather implemented theories of past centuries inadequate to the current challenges of the world. We have seen policies designed or actions taken that genuinely undermine the dignity of other human beings. The truth is that despite all the technical and technological revolutions, machines or computers will never have the human emotion. That feeling of common humanity, self-respect, and for others, love for one another is something inherent and particular to the human nature. We need to elevate our standards and uphold our core values more than ever. We must refine our thinking and actions when the sanctuary becomes a ghost, about to burn. There is a need to redefine the citizen of the millennium. This second volume aims to aid in preventing conflicts and resolving them when they arise. It is designed to help each one of us find peace with ourselves and start a conversation with the other across the aisle. It goes from the spiritual to the physical world—the freedom to speak our minds, grow from fear, and turn challenges into opportunities for growth and inclusive progress.

Geoenvironmental Engineering

By: A.M.O. Mohamed,H.E. Antia

The new social and economic era calls for integration of ecology and economy in a system of cause and effect. The central element in this shift is sustainable development. Fundamental to the achievement of sustainable development is the requirement for environmentally responsible waste management and restoration of the environment. Solutions to the complex problems confronted by waste management and environmental restoration industry are currently handled by the geoenvironmental engineering profession that needs a good background in soil biology, chemistry, mechanics, mineralogy, and physics. In recognition of this need, this book summarizes relevant aspects of various soil physics, mineralogy, and chemistry as well as the chemistry of pollutants. This treatment will provide sufficient background to students and practicing engineers to enable them to think about how to approach waste management and environmental restoration problems.

This Side of Nothingness

By: Sesay, Mohamed Gibril

The book tells the story of Momodu, a tale teller, and unpublished poet with a banana heart and flabby waist, weaves the interlocking stories of his younger brother, father, mother, cousin and slum friends into a tapestry that sometimes looks like a shroud, other times like a priest's holy hermit, and plenty times like the sparkling attire of a blaspheming fornicator.

Redefining The Citizen of The New Millennium

Growing Up in Guinea

By: Mohamed Diallo

During the 2017 celebration of the day of the African Child, I was invited at the end of the event to share my story to a group of children. I was asked by my friends to begin with my story, but I am rather a private man. And most importantly, I believe there are more important stories to begin with. These are the stories of those who can’t write, who can’t speak up for themselves, who are left at the mercy of society, but also the stories of the brave, the courageous, the dreamers, and most importantly, the decisive actors, the action takers, the positive change makers, and the doers. As important as the story of each person is, the stories of those disenfranchised matter the most to me. There are more interesting stories to begin this conversation with than mine. Volume one of Redefining the citizen of the new millennium explores the gritty details of growing up into an environment where almost every odd is against us and how in the midst of chaos one could rise above expectations.
