Stamps, Nationalism and Political Transition
This book explores how states in political transition use stamps to promote a new visual nationalism. Stamps as products of the state and provide small pieces of information about a state’s heritage, culture, economies and place in the world. These depictions change over time, reflecting political and cultural changes and developments. The volume explores the transition times in more than a dozen countries from Africa, Latin America, Asia and Europe. Specifically addressed are the stamp topics, issues and themes in the years before and after such major changes occurred, for example, from a European colony to political independence or from a dictatorship to democracy. The authors compare the personalities, histories, and cultural representations "before" the transition period and how the state used the "after" event to define or redefine its place on the world political map. The final three chapters consider international themes on many stamp issues, one being stamps with Disney cartoon characters, another on "themeless" Forever stamps, and the third on states celebrating women and their accomplishments. This volume has wide interdisciplinary relevance and should prove of particular interest to those studying geopolitics, political transition, visual nationalism, soft power and visual representations of decolonializing.

Essai d'Histoire locale fut crit par un acteur-cl de l'historiographie de l'Afrique de l'Ouest pourtant encore m connu: Djiguiba Camara. R dig en 1955, ce texte est centr sur l'histoire du Nord de la Guin e, avec une attention particuli re port e sur l'empire de Samori Tour et la r sistance anticoloniale. Ce texte, Essai d'histoire locale, illustre la fabrique de l'histoire locale et coloniale par un interm diaire colonial guin en et un intellectuel, partir du point de vue sp cifique de la famille Camara, qui fut engag e dans les arm es de Samori. Ce texte n'a t connu que parce qu'il est devenu l'une des sources majeures de l'historien fran ais Yves Person pour sa monumentale th se Samori, Une R volution Dyula (1968-1975). Avec cette dition annot e d'une source primaire, "Essai d'histoire locale" de Djiguiba Camara devient enfin accessible un lectorat plus vaste. Elara Bertho et Marie Rodet ont d montr gr ce cette publication que Essai d'histoire locale est une source essentielle pour la compr hension de l'histoire de la Guin e ainsi que de la fabrique de l'historiographie, en particulier du travail d'Yves Person. Although a key figure in West African historiography, Djiguiba Camara from Damaro has remained almost completely unknown. He wrote Essay on Local History over many years but finally finished it in 1955. His focus was the history of Northern Guinea with an emphasis on the Empire of Samori Tour and anticolonial resistance. Everywhere in Essay on Local History we can see not only the highly developed craft of the local and colonial historical writing of a Guinean colonial intermediary and scholar, but the view he gave is from the particular perspective of the Camara family, who had served in Samori's armies. Djiguiba Camara's own work had been known only by reputation as a source for the monumental thee-volume Samori - Une R volution Dyula (1968-1975) by the French historian Yves Person. Now however, in this fully annotated text edition, Djiguiba Camara's Essai d'Histoire Locale becomes available to a wider audience for the first time. Elara Bertho and Marie Rodet have demonstrated through this publication that Essay on Local History is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand both the history of Guinea and more especially Yves Person's modus operandi.
