Ports and Economic Integration in Madagascar
The port situation of Madagascar is characterised by a large number of poorly equipped lighterage installations and three ports with deep-water facilities, only one of which is modern and adequately equipped.

At that time, African studies in the United States were just beginning to reach hesitantly beyond the half-dozen pioneer university centers in this country. The movement toward African independence was in full swing, but the political future of Africa was still uncertain. A few African universities were already in operation, but the great increase in their numbers…

The Fishing Industry of the Outer Hebrides
T 3 HE chain of islands known as the Outer Hebrides lies off the northwest coast of Scotland from 15 to 40 miles west of the Isle of Skye and the Northwest Highlands shore. Only 29 of the thousands of islands and islets in the chain are inhabited. The more important ones, from the standpoint of both size and population, are, from south to north, Barra, South Uist, Benbecula, North Uist, and Lewis-with-Harris (Fig. 1). The last island is often ref…
Crofting in the Outer Hebrides
economy is crofting. Crofting is a system of hereditary tenure of small patches of cultivated land combined with rights on common grazing land. The physical conditions in the Hebrides are so restrictive and the density of population so great, that the crofts of the islands are incapable in themselves of supporting the population. The crofters normally engage, therefore, in some complementary activity such as fishing, spinning, weaving of Harris T…
