They have been engaged in numerous, often violent, strikes for improvements in their deteriorating living and study conditions and the introduction of a democratic culture in the universities and society as a whole, including the right to express their views, organise in student unions and participate in university management. This book focuses on a recent violent strike action in Cameroons state universities, with special attention to the University of Buea the only English-speaking university in the country between 1993 and 2011. Such a detailed study on student strikes is still rare in African studies, and maybe even more important, this book pays special attention to certain elements that have been of great significance to the strike but are often overlooked in narratives of other student actions in Africa, namely the use of cell phones, differences in gender roles of student activists, the religious dimensions of the strike, the central role of some public spaces like bars and cafs for the planning and execution of student strikes, and the power of the photocopier. The book goes far beyond simply documenting the various protest actions of students against the state and university authorities. It also provides ample room for comments from journalists and other civil-society members and groups on various aspects of the strike. 606 $aStudent movements$zCameroon 606 $aStudent protesters$zCameroon 615 0$aStudent movements 615 0$aStudent protesters 676 $a372.35 701 $aNyamnjoh$b Francis B.$f1961-$0858938 701 $aNkwi$b Walter Gam$01795583 701 $aKonings$b Piet$0301034 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910964477703321 996 $aUniversity crisis and student protest in Africa$94339878 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02756nam 22006971 450 001 9910953230403321 005 20251116194006.0 010 $a9783110814927 010 $a3110814927 024 7 $a10.1515/9783110814927 035 $a(CKB)2550000001178598 035 $a(OCoLC)868973796 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebrary10789507 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000849236 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11517270 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000849236 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10809811 035 $a(PQKB)10542899 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3044477 035 $a(DE-B1597)41240 035 $a(OCoLC)979638614 035 $a(DE-B1597)9783110814927 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3044477 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10789507 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL558786 035 $a(OCoLC)922947757 035 $a(Perlego)653515 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000001178598 100 $a19950822d1995 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aDefending Zion $eEdom's desolation and Jacob's restoration (Isaiah 34-35) in context /$fClaire R.
