Luso-Goan sources of the 16th–17th centuries mentioned such gifts as boca (‘mouth’). The article examines some examples of “mouth” in the sources (the letter of André Fernandes, the report of Francisco de Moncl…
The 1969 Strike in Curacao (“Trinta di Mei”)
The article examines the events of 1969 in Curacao, known as “Trinta di Mei” (“30th May”). “Thirtieth of May”. In the 20th century strikes repeatedly occurred on this “paradise island,” which escalated into mass unrest, accompanied by acts of violence. Among them, a special place is occupied by the “Trinta di Mei” in Willemstad, the capital of Curacao and all the Netherlands Antilles, in late May — early June 1969. A brief overview of these event…
Un sueño renacido
The article tackles the concept of "self-determination until separation" for the Afro-descendants as "oppressed nationality" in Latin America. The theme is studied on the base of the documents of the Communist International, demonstrating how a thesis developed in Europe and Asia collided with Latin American realities. Then a more recent concept of "plurinationality" in the region and the unique case of autonomies in Nicaragua are discussed. The …

Anton de Kom (Anton, Antoine, Adek, Papa de Com, 1898—1945), closely associated with the Communist Party of the Netherlands, became the “Father of Suriname’s Independence”. The article pays a parti…
The Comintern, “Negro Self-Determination” and Black Revolutions in the Caribbean
The article discusses the slogan of “Negro self-determination” adopted by the Communist International and the traces of its influence on post-Comintern political transformations in the Caribbean. Particular attention is paid to the establishment of Afro-centric regimes in Haiti and Grenada. It is argued that the events in these two countries after the Second World War bear visible traces of the influence of the pre-war Comintern propaganda. Haiti…

‘Classical Hausa’ Glosses in a Nineteenth-Century Qur'anic Manuscript
This article presents an analysis of Hausa glosses in a nineteenth-century Qur'anic manuscript (C1688) from the library of the Institute of Oriental Manuscripts in St Petersburg, and argues that a systematic study of Arabic manuscripts with Hausa glosses is needed for a re-interpretation of early Hausa writings in Arabic script. The origins of the Hausa written tradition in Arabic script and the evolution of the concept ‘Ajami’ in the nineteenth …
