Studies on post-slavery in East Africa often concentrate on the aftermath of slavery for the formerly enslaved. By contrast, former owners’ experiences after abolition and during emancipation are rarely explored. This article examines the trajectories of Omani Arabs in western Tanzania during and after the end of slavery, ca. 1910 to the late twentieth century. Having settled and built slavelabour plantations along the central caravan route in the nineteenth century, they relocated to rural areas between the 1920s and 1930s following the legal abolition of slavery and great economic depression. To tell their story in postslavery Tanzania, we drew examples from primary sources deposited in the archives of Tanzania and the United Kingdom, and oral interviews collected from the many villages in rural western Tanzania where the Omanis’ descendants now live. We show that the history of the Omani Arabs and their identity in twentieth-century western Tanzania was shaped by economic dispossession and uncertainty about citizenship, but also by evolving cultural identities and sustained social networking.

On October 15, 1912, a little over twenty years after Zanzibar was declared a British protectorate, Theodore Burtt, a Christian missionary in Pemba, a sister island to Zanzibar, sent a letter to the British consul general in Stone Town, Zanzibar’s capital. The letter addressed two concerns: how to manage marriage among “native” Christian converts and whether the marriages conducted by the mission were valid under “Mohammedan law” (ZNA AB 30/7). But the main concern of the mission, according to the letter writer, was that the “present lawless promiscuous cohabitation between the sexes, and separation again, often for trifling causes and...

In Oman, Bangladeshis are now the most important community of migrants among South Asians. Among them are fishermen who represent a paradigmatic example of the difficult situation most low skilled workers have to face in the Gulf countries. Based on fieldworks in Hatiya, a small island of the Bay of Bengal from where these fishermen are originating, and in several harbours of Oman, I intend to highlight the different mechanisms which make migration a very risky gamble for these men. From the recruitment process through local networks, the conditions of work and salaries, the unavoidable path to an irregular status and eventually the arrest and deportation of most of these workers, I propose to show how, structurally, their migratory experience almost always leads to failure and increased poverty.

Aux premières heures de la révolution libyenne, pendant que le monde entier a les yeux rivés sur Benghazi, un petit groupe d’insurgés défie la dictature à l’autre bout du pays, dans les montagnes du Nefoussa. Coupés du reste du monde, assiégés par l’armée de Kadhafi, les montagnards vont, contre toute attente, infliger une série de revers aux troupes du régime et parvenir aux portes de Tripoli. De la guérilla du djebel jusqu’au rivage de la Méditerranée, Tomorrow Tripoli relate le combat de ces hommes simples et généreux, emportés par le tourbillon révolutionnaire.
