Addressing Criminal Legal System Health Inequities Through Redirection
The criminal legal system and youth delinquent systems (CL/DS) are increasingly recognized as a primary sources of racial/ethnic inequity (REI) in health. Research funding institutions are beginning to focus on the CL/DS as a social determinant of health, some CL/DS officials are centering equity as a core concern, and some problematic CL/DS practices are being rolled back. However, the impact of such efforts may be limited because they typically…
A parallel universe – competing interpretations of Zimbabwe's crisis
This article examines competing interpretations of the nature and cause of Zimbabwe’s contemporary crisis. It finds that while neoliberal macroeconomic policies promoted by international financial institutions helped to provide a structural basis for the crisis, arguments attributing blame to Britain and to wider Western sanctions are overblown and inaccurate. Similarly, although Western reactions to Zimbabwe’s land reform have had a racist tinge…

South Africa's Zimbabwe Policy
The Ambiguous Champion
The Ambiguous Champion is the First Comprehensive and critical study of Canadian foreign policy towards South Africa. Freeman challenges the conventional belief that successive Canadian governments took the high road, leading the international struggle against apartheid.

Neglected victims of homicide
Fifteen children, aged 7-18 years, were interviewed an average of five months after the murder of an older sibling. Although most showed significant symptoms of depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and psychosocial impairment, few had received any community or mental health system support or services for these symptoms. Specific problems and needs are identified, and implications for research and practice are discussed
Toward Peace and Security in Southern Africa
The Contradictions of Independence
Almost 30 years after other African countries, Namibia finally became free of colonial rule in March 1990. The attainment of formal independence was a momentous occasion, particularly for those who had suffered from the harshness of first German then South African control and who had taken part in the bitter struggle for liberation. For a time, Namibia's independence regenerated the momentum stalled after the liberation of Angola and Mozambique i…

Constructively' Supporting Aggression and Repression - Reagan's South Africa Policy
Although overshadowed by the nature of its activities in other parts of the world, the changes which the Reagan administration has initiated in U.S. relations with South Africa have had profound consequences both for the African people of South Africa and for neighbouring countries. The premise of Reagan's approach has been that cordial relations with South Africa would achieve more in terms of resolving the problems of Southern Africa and in sec…

Cida, Wheat, and Rural Development in Tanzania
Dans le but d'évaluer la contribution canadienne à l'amélioration de la production vivrière tanzanienne, l'auteur étudie un important programme du CRDI cité comme exemple de transfert réussi de la technologie et du capital canadiens. À long terme, cependant, il accroîtra la dépendance des exploitations tanzaniennes aux importations et à la coopération internationale. Dans les domaines de la production et de la commercialisation, le programme ne s…
Power to the People
Canada and Africa in the 1970s
The nature of Canada's role in Africa in the 1970s has been sufficiently obscure that Flora MacDonald, during her short-lived tenure as Canada's secretary of state for external affairs, publicly wondered what we were doing there.1 Her musings were a product of the fact that, although Canada has consolidated and extended the initiatives undertaken in the previous decade, it is still a marginal actor in Africa and Africa's importance in Canada rema…
