Abstract

Nach der Unabhängigkeit Tansanias und Ugandas verhandelten lokale Akteure Staatsbürgerschaft neu. Als Außenseiter mussten die asiatischen Minderheiten Ostafrikas ihre Rolle in einer neuen Welt finden. Doch während der 1960er verengten sich die sozialen und ökonomischen Räume für sie, was letztlich in der Ausweisung der Asiaten aus Uganda gipfelte.

Abstract

In Idi Amin's Shadow is a rich social history examining Ugandan women's complex and sometimes paradoxical relationship to Amin's military state.

Abstract

Between 2012 and 2016 several Muslim clerics were murdered in Uganda: there is still no consensus as to who was responsible. In this book Joseph Kasule seeks to explain this by examining the colonial and postcolonial history of the Muslim minority and questions of Muslim identity within a non-Muslim state. Challenging prevalent scholarship that has homogenized Muslims' political identity, Kasule demonstrates that Muslim responses to power have been varied and multiple. Beginning with the pre-colonial political community in Buganda, and Muteesa I's attempted Islamization of the country using Islam as a centralizing ideology, the author discusses how the political status of Islam and Muslims in Uganda has been defined under successive regimes.
