WiSe 13/14: Representing Resistance in Africa: New Media, Civil Disobedience and the Chance for Democratic Change

Stefanie Hirsbrunner; Omojuwa, Japheth

Comments

Most of Africa like Nigeria has democratised. Therefore the next challenge is to make these democracies truly representative of the people's wishes. Starting with discussing central questions asked along the momentous events of the Black emancipation struggle in the 1960s, this seminar aims to take a closer look on the practice of civil disobedience in Africa today and its chances as well as its challenges. What has changed since Rosa Parks, Mahatma Ghandi and Martin Luther King when it comes to so called People Power Movements? What forms and practices of civil disobedience are used to express moral discontent, outrage and political interest nowadays? With the example of the Occupy Movement in Nigeria this seminar will also examine what role new forms of media can play in African uprisings. Dieses Seminar wird unterstützt vom Goethe-Institut Nigeria. www.goethe.de/nigeria close
