Peasants and politics in the western Transvaal, 1920-1940Simpson, Graeme Neil 05 August 1986 (has links)
This thesis examines the political and ideological struggles within Tswana chiefdoms in the Rustenburg district of the Western Transvaal in the period 1920 - 1940. This period was characterized by a spate of struggles against tribal chiefs which took on similar forms in most of the chiefdoms of the district. These challenges to chiefly political authority reflected a variety of underlying material interests which were rooted in the process of class formation resulting from the development of capitalist relations of production within the wider society. Despite the variations in material conditions in the different chiefdoms of the district, the forms of political and ideological resistance were very similar. The thesis examines the extent of the influences of Christian missions and national political organizations in these localized struggles, and also explores the relationship between chiefs, Native Affairs Department officials and the rural African population in the context of developing segregationist ideology during the inter-war period.

A Study on the Feasibility of the Official Appointment of Sub-ward (Li) Chiefs¡X A Case of Kaohsiung CityLee, Hai-Yu 10 September 2004 (has links)
A Study on the Feasibility of the Official Appointment of Sub-ward (Li) Chiefs
¡X A Case of Kaohsiung City
The purpose of this study was to propose the results of the empirical investigation utilizing the SWOT analysis of the official appointment of sub-ward (Li) chiefs, which revealed the high feasibility of the official appointment. The data germane to this study were disposed through documentary analysis research along with questionnaire survey research and observation research. The subjects of this exploration were categorized into two major groups. One is the public surveyed by telephone resulting in 1017 successful samples; the other is the local officials surveyed by questionnaires including 463 sub-ward (Li) chiefs with a return rate of 74.3% (310), and 271 sub-ward (Li) clerks with a high return rate of 88.2% (239). The results of the survey reveal high credibility which can be seen in chapter three.
The results of official appointment were depicted as follows:
1. The advantages of the official appointment:
(a) downsizing the administrative organizations, simplifying the administrative procedures, and increasing the effectiveness;
(b) slimming down the manpower and cutting down the spending;
(c) improving the relationships between the sub-ward (Li) administrative organizations and the community development associations;
(d) reducing the expenditures for election and rectifying the vicious election practices; and ;
(e) promoting the administrative efficiency without violating democracy.
2. The disadvantages of the official appointment:
(a) violating the principles of democracy;
(b) violating the principles of local self-governing;
(c) increasing the workload after merging the positions of sub-ward (Li) chiefs and clerks;
(d) diminishing sub-ward (Li) chiefs¡¦ enthusiasm towards their work; and
(e) lowering the functions of community development associations.
3. The reflection of the official appointment:
(a) enhancing the local harmony;
(b) incurring criticism from the self-benefiting of without-pay elected sub-ward (Li) chiefs¡¦;
(c) requesting the government to examine the overlapping functions of sub-ward (Li) chiefs and clerks; and
(d) the official appointment of township chiefs becomes the best paradigm of that of sub-ward (Li) chiefs.
4. The threat of the official appointment:
(a) accumulating resentment;
(b) damaging people¡¦s rights by failing to precisely respond to local situations.
Finally, the findings and recommendations of this study were as follows:
1. The author suggests that the government should be more determined to reasonably adjust the boroughs for sub-ward (Li) and village chiefs¡¦ ¡§equal pay for equal work;¡¨ meanwhile, as the number of boroughs decreases, the resistance for official appointment could be reduced and the workload of appointed sub-ward (Li) chiefs would be more even as well.
2. Not only does the official appointment of township chiefs promote administrative efficiency and economizes enormous expenditures, but whose successful experience in reform can be the example for the reform of sub-ward (Li) and village offices.
3. It is believed that appointed sub-ward (Li) chiefs will perform better than elected sub-ward (Li) chiefs. Although there are no existing rules about disciplining elected sub-ward (Li) chiefs, appointed sub-ward (Li) chiefs will be subjected to administrative disciplinary measures or even removed from positions for not fulfilling their duty. Hence, it would be easier to carry out the official appointment of sub-ward (Li) chiefs if borough offices can strengthen sub-ward (Li) chiefs¡¦ functions of reflecting people¡¦s opinions before the cancellation of the sub-ward (Li) chief elections.

Homeland Security Roles and Responsibilities: an Examination of Texas Police Chiefs’ PerceptionsThimamontri, Apinya 08 1900 (has links)
Research has shown that the police industry has entered into an era of homeland security. However, whether the core functions of policing have significantly changed since September 11, 2001, has been the topic of considerable debate. Using secondary data, the research identifies variables that are most influential in predicting whether Texas police chiefs understand their departments’ homeland security roles and responsibilities. The data was originally obtained in 2007 through self-administered surveys of police chiefs attending the Texas Chief Leadership Series (TPCLS) and the New Chief Development Program (NCDP).

Imagining the Marshalls: Chiefs, tradition, and the state on the fringes of United States empireWalsh, Julianne Marie 08 1900 (has links)
Understandings of the Marshall Islands require attention to the interplay of multiple discourses of tradition, modernity, chiefs, development, and democracy from
multiple sources that critically interact and mutually construct the Marshall Islands. This multi-sited, multi-vocal ethnography explores the reproduction and transformation of historic power relationships between Marshallese chiefs and commoners who incorporate and "indigenize" foreign discourses and resources into culturally informed models and practices of authority. In relationships of unequal power, such as that defined by the Compact of Free Association between the United States and the Republic of the Marshall Islands, dominant global discourses about culture and progress enable both local and transnational
hegemonies. These discourses are contextually analyzed as they are invoked and challenged in Nitijela [parliament] debates, in evaluations of the Compact of Free Association, in elites' autobiographical reflections on Marshallese-American relationships, and in foreign media representations. Historical shifts in the political and economic powers of Marshallese chiefs through three colonial administrations, and the growth of a commoner elite class since World War II further highlight the ways foreign resources are appropriated for specific local purposes that transform understandings of power and authority. With discourse as both object and method of analysis, the agency of local actors is both foregrounded and contextualized. Simplistic characterizations of chiefs, elites, commoners, and foreigners' are complicated through close attention to the ways local loyalties, colonial histories, political rivalries, and global discourses inform and frame expressions of Marshallese identities.
