THE ROLE OF ARCHIVES IN THE DOCUMENTATION OF ORAL TRADITIONS, A CASE OF THE SAN PEOPLE IN TSHOLOTSHO AND PLUMTREE
Authors: Bhebhe Sindiso , Chirume Anele 
Published: January 2018

The Tshwao or San people, formally known as Bushmen, are believed to have been the first people to settle in what is known as Zimbabwe today. The migration of the agriculturalist ethnic groups, especially the Ndebele and Kalanga kingdoms, into their territory has affected their social way of life. It has led to forced assimilation, marginalization and dispossession of their land, including their rock paintings and denial of land rights. This has meant that they have lost most of their cultural values and identity, most notably their language, land and religion. There is therefore an urgent need to document the activities of the San people in order to salvage their cultural activities. Various cultural activities of the San people are connected to their land. Their religion is connected toÂ articular land, for example Matopo and Njelele. This land has been taken away from their control, meaning their religion has been compromised. The San are generally nomadic and more inclined to a gathering and hunting life style. The fact that they can no longer move around because of resettlements of the Kalanga and Ndebele people on their land has disturbed this way of life. This article is based on the use of oral history interviews in collecting data. Purposive sampling will be done so that specifically targeted San people will be interviewed in such a way that they tell their life histories. Literature regarding the San people will also be reviewed.
IS STIGMA RECEDING? STORIES OF AIDS SUPPORT GROUP MEMBERS IN PIETERMARITZBURG, SOUTH AFRICA
Authors: Denis Philippe , Longwe Molly , Zitha Ntokozo 
Published: January 2018

The paper describes the experience of people living with HIV in KwaZulu-Natal. It is based on oral history interviews with members of two support groups in the Pietermaritzburg area that were conducted in 2009 and 2011, respectively. The interviews show that, if stigma and discrimination remain a key component of the experience of people living with HIV in KwaZulu-Natal, certain evolutions are taking place. Nearly all theÂ nterviewees were on antiretroviral treatment and their health conditions had improved. They deeply appreciated the solidarity they found in their support groups. In most cases their families, friends and neighbours responded positively when they disclosed their status. Yes, obstacles remained. The interviewees, most of whom were women, saw gender stereotypes and menâ€™s resistance to testing, treatment and care as one of their biggest challenges.
GENDER AND LAND DISPOSSESSION IN ZIMBABWE: A CASE OF THE NDEBELE AT ESIGODINI AREA, 1893â€“2003
Authors: Makwanise Ndakaitei , Masuku Mehluli 
Published: January 2018

Â The Ndebele tribe in Zimbabwe has probably experienced more land dispossessions than any other tribe, beginning the 1890s with the arrival of the whites. Most of this history, unfortunately, is not well documented. Based on an oral history approach, this article focuses on the gendered dimensions of land dispossession. It seeks to answer questions such as: Do men and women view land ownership and land issues in the same way? Did the land dispossessions that took place for more than one hundred years in Zimbabwe, particularly in the Ndebele tribe, affect the way land is viewed in terms of gender? The research further sought to find out how women have been historically marginalised or emancipated in the community. Given the importance of land in any culture, the research also seeks to find out how a shift in the way land is viewed, in terms of gender, can improve the lives of many in the Ndebele tribe. The research was conducted in Esikhoveni Village in Esigodini, Matabeleland South. It was based on oral history, targeting the headmen and other elders noted for their wisdom and knowledge of the area. A total of sixteen (16) informants were interviewed using judgemental and snowball strategies. The study revealed that land was considered an important resource in the area. Women had limited opportunities for land ownership in the village. Culture and tradition were still dominant over legal provisions when it came to land and gender issues. The study recommends a new and more rigorous approach by the government and other stakeholders to change the cultural and traditional perceptions of the rural communities in order to achieve a gender balance regarding land ownership and allocation.
CISG AND REGIONAL SALES LAW: FRIENDS OR FOES?
Authors: Coetzee Juana 
Published: January 2018

Â Economic co-operation and integration brings with it a need to harmonise mechanisms for the regulation of international trade, not only at a public-law level between states but also at a private-law level between traders inter partes. It is often forgotten that differences in the substantive law applicable to a contract function as a non-tariff barrier to trade. Because international trade facilitates economic development, the focus in this article is on the harmonisation of sales laws. Traditionally, private law harmonisation has been conducted by international private or inter-state organisations that specialise in the harmonising of law at a global level. Today, private organisations and groups devoted to harmonising business laws, as well as regional economic integration organisations, are also pursuing legal harmonisation. Global, regional and domestic laws now all exist in the same area of the law, which can give rise to duplication of efforts and problems with the co-existence of global and regional sales law. This article will discuss these issues with reference to the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) and selected regional laws in considering whether regional harmonisation can act as a stepping stone towards increased harmonisation at a global level or whether it is to be viewed as a threat to global integration and harmonisation.
THE MODERN TRAVELLING MERCHANT: MOBILE COMMUNICATION IN INTERNATIONAL CONTRACT LAW
Authors: Schroeter Ulrich G 
Published: January 2018

The use of mobile communication devices such as mobile phones, smartphones, tablet computers or notebooks with access to the internet has become an everyday phenomenon in today's business world. However, whenever mobile communications are used for the purposes of contract formation, that is, the mobile dispatch of offers or acceptances, the mobility of the communicating parties raises important difficulties for the application of traditional legal rules: The fact that messages transmitted via phone, email or SMS can be dispatched and received Â at virtually any Â place on Â earth challenges the categories of private international law and international contract law, which are based on the (unspoken) assumption that parties communicate from their home country. The existing legal framework for cross-border contracts therefore hardly takes into account the possibility that parties may move across borders, and that the place of their communications may accordingly vary.The present article addresses the legal difficulties and uncertainties that crossÂ­ border Â mobile communication Â raises under international rules of law. It elaborates on the traditional role of the site of communication in this context before scrutinising how 'mobility friendly' the provisions Â of the relevant Â conventions Â developed Â by the United Nations, the Hague Conference for Private International Law and other organisations Â are. In doing Â so, Â it critically Â discusses Â in particular Â article Â 10(3) Â of the UN Electronic Communications Convention of 2005, the most recent attempt at regulating mobile communications. Finally, it identifies a number of problems that have hitherto been overlooked (as notably the interaction of article 10(3) of the UN Electronic Communications Convention with traditional private international law rules on the formal validity of contracts) and proposes appropriate solutions.
The Right to Housing: Challenges Associated with the '˜Waiting List System' Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality v Various Occupiers, Eden Park Extension 5 2014 3 SA 23 (SCA)
Authors: Ebrahim Shamier 
Published: January 2018

The right to adequate housing is a constitutional imperative which is contained in section 26 of the Constitution. The state is tasked with the progressive realisation of this right. The allocation of housing has been plagued with challenges which impact negatively on the allocation process. This note analyses Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality v Various Occupiers, Eden Park Extension 5 which dealt with a situation where one of the main reasons provided by the Supreme Court of Appeal for refusing the eviction order was because the appellants subjected the unlawful occupiers to defective waiting lists and failed to engage with the community regarding the compilation of the lists and the criteria used to identify beneficiaries. This case brings to the fore the importance of a coherent (reasonable) waiting list in eviction proceedings. This note further analyses the impact of the waiting list system in eviction proceedings and makes recommendations regarding what would constitute a coherent (reasonable) waiting list for the purpose of section 26(2) of the Constitution.
Can Estoppel be Raised Against an Eviction in Terms of PIE?
Authors: Du Plessis Elmien WJ 
Published: January 2018

Estoppel is a well-known defence against (or limitation on) the rei vindicatio. This would be the case for example where the owner by some representation creates the impression that a third party is the owner of a thing and that the third party has the capacity to alienate the property. The bona fide third party can, when the owner then institutes the rei vindication to recover his property, raise estoppel and preclude the real owner from claiming his property.Â Before 2002, if one wanted to evict an unlawful occupier from certain residential premises, one would institute the rei vindicatio. In Ndlovu v Ngcobo; Bekker v Jika [2002] 4 All SA 384 (SCA) the court, however, ruled that the Prevention of Illegal Eviction from and Unlawful Occupation of Land Act 19 of 1998 (PIE) must be used in all instances of evicting people from urban residential premises. The question is: does estoppel serve as a defence/limit in the application of PIE? Surprisingly few cases deal with this issue. The court in Joe Slovo made a few remarks about the possibility of using estoppel as a defence against the rei vindicatio by looking at the interpretation of â€˜tacit consentâ€™ required by PIE. This article will interpret provisions of PIE and look at case law that deals with the use of estoppel in lease cases. It will conclude by remarking on the feasibility of using estoppel as a defence in PIE eviction cases.
Introducing graphic medicine: care and comics
Authors: Graham Robert 
Published: January 2018

Since around 2000, there has been a growing body of work which tells medical stories using the form of comics. This genre has come to be called “Graphic Medicine” and has been organized and supported with annual (since 2007) global “Comics & Medicine” conferences and a publication series at The Pennsylvania State University Press. The seminal "Graphic Medicine Manifesto" was published by that press in 2015. In my presentation I would like to begin with a survey of the genre’s history and to transmit a sense of its scope. Graphic Medicine publications are composed and illustrated by physicians, nurse practitioners, patients, patients’ family members and other creator/observers. Sometimes they are testimonies of actual cases and other times they are imagined and constructed. The perspectives offered and illustrative styles are wildly variable. The scope of vision might be broad and sociologically dense, displaying the patient’s lifeworld or only show the experience of an isolated figure. I believe that Graphic Medicine can make claims to offer a unique instrument of mediation. As such, it can be used to facilitate the relation between doctors, students, patients and families. Comics can illustrate the imaginative and symbolic representations of figures and their dynamic relationships.Furthermore, I propose that its features are sympathetic to and supportive of the goals and methods of Whole Person Care. Graphic Medicine is holistic as it presents a contextualizing situation, while subjective draughtsmanship enhances the affective dimension. And they are also anxiety reducing - for after all, they are still comics.
Where did everybody go? Working with anxiety when cancer treatment ends
Authors: Pitman Anne , Wilcox Rabia 
Published: January 2018

Anticipating the end of cancer treatment, we think we will be nothing but relieved. In most cases, there is significant relief, but also significant fear. To add to the difficulty, when cancer treatment finishes, so do most supportive programs. People expect us to be “back to normal” now that we “have our life back”, even though our perspective on life may well have changed during the process of cancer treatment. Ultimately, we can feel quite alone, worried about the cancer coming back and not being sure how to live this new reality.This workshop invites practicing psychosocial clinicians and allied health professionals to learn to integrate a host of effective holistic techniques to patients and caregivers at this uniquely stressful time. In this experiential workshop learn body-centered tools to soften the fear of recurrence, re-balance the nervous system and help people both settle and thrive into this “new normal” life.
Playing jeopardy by not treating the whole person with arthritis
Authors: Dobkin Patricia Lynn , Boire Gilles 
Published: January 2018

Availability of potent medications, earlier diagnosis and use of drug combinations should have made rheumatoid arthritis yesterday’s disease. Unfortunately the majority of patients never reach remission. The focus of treatment has been based on the biomedical model aiming to reduce inflammation, regulate the immune system, and prevent joint damage – all worthy outcomes. A whole person care approach would add to patient care by including attention to the psychosocial aspects of illness that contribute to clinical outcomes. Two studies using data from a longitudinal cohort followed out to four years with early arthritis patients will be highlighted. The first identified predictors of pain one year after baseline in 211 patients. While overall pain decreased over time, emotion-oriented coping contributed to pain intensity and affective pain. The second study examined the link between depression and clinical outcomes four years later using data from 275 patients. It was found that when depression persisted into the first year it was the most potent predictor of disease activity at each follow-up visit. Moreover, the proportion of patients who ever reached remission decreased from 84.3% to 31.3% for patients with depressive symptoms at 12 months. vailability of potent medications, earlier diagnosis and use of drug combinations should have made rheumatoid arthritis yesterday’s disease.

It is recommended that both curing and healing be considered when treating arthritis patients given the importance of psychosocial factors to the trajectory of the disease. This could be done by screening for and treating depression in arthritis patients. Antidepressant medications and/or psychological interventions such as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction or Cognitive Behavioural Therapy are options to be considered.
Implementation of an Iraqi women’s behavioral health support group: Lessons learned in a pre and post US election climate
Authors: Hunter Winnie , Dasgupta Shruti , Alsharea Enas , Williams Emma 
Published: January 2018

The Colorado Refugee Wellness center is an integrated primary and behavioral health care provider for newly arrived refugees resettling in the City of Aurora, CO. In the Spring of 2016, behavioral health staff responded to a need identified by Iraqi Muslim women clients to come together to share experiences and get support in light of the rise in anti-Muslim and anti-refugee rhetoric, and so a therapy group for Iraqi women was created.Topics addressed in group included cultural considerations related to communication styles, generational hierarchy, respect of authority, religious values, physical health and building community as well as psychological issues of losses, cultural conflicts, fear and safety, and achieving health goals in the face of adversity. The Iraqi patient navigator served as an invaluable cultural broker in the recruitment and retention of clients, as well as provided cultural insight into conducting ongoing program evaluation to revise the goals and purpose of the group.In this presentation, we share clinical and cross-cultural experiences, as well as lessons learned on the creation, implementation, and adaption of an Iraqi women’s behavioral health support group in the political climate of the 2016 US election year and approaches to flexible program development and evaluation. We discuss the limitations of applicability of Western core group therapy interventions and recovery models based on the insights from the Iraqi women’s group. In particular, we focus on the crisis debrief session with group members on the day following the election via a process of reciprocal healing.
Building resilience: an innovative reflective writing method for clinical palliative care – the 55 word story
Authors: Ingram Cory , Marchand Lucille , Wild Ellen 
Published: January 2018

Finding innovative reflective self-care techniques reduces the potential for burnout and the stress associated with attending to the needs of the very ill and the dying. Time is often a barrier to self care; and narrative methodologies often seem to require too much time or writing ability. We offer a novel, time efficient, practical approach for debut at AAHPM/HPNA that is useful to almost everyone.The 55 word medical narrative about clinical encounters from the perspective of the clinician is the self care therapeutic tool offered during this session. Participants will experience and leave empowered to approach the medical narrative in a brief but meaningful way. In this workshop session, participants will be introduced to pertinent research and content on narrative medicine, and will participate in writing a 55 word story about a personal or professional encounter in hospice and palliative care, or about a topic that they want to explore in palliative care such as hope, compassion, doubt, or guilt.Participants will share their 55 word story in dyads, give feedback on this method and its impact on resilience and reflection.Objectives:1. Describe a novel, effective yet brief framework for the use of medical narrative as a reflective exercise for increasing resilience within the larger literature of narrative medicine methods.2. Demonstrate and experience the 55 word medical narrative as a brief but effective reflective exercise.3. Integrate the 55 word story narrative method into various clinical care and teaching settings in palliative care.

Published: January 2018

Theatre of the Oppressed (TO) created by the Brazilian theatre personality, Augusto Boal helps individuals deal with both external and internal sources of oppression. TO workshops are now held in many educational institutions and other settings. TO enables participants to step beyond the walls of the classroom, explore various life situations, improves the skill of both verbal and non-verbal communication, enables participants to experience various oppressors and oppressed situations and formulate strategies to deal with them. The authors describe a three day TO workshop conducted at KIST Medical College, Lalitpur, Nepal from 6th to 8th April 2012. Janaki Medical College Journal of Medical Sciences (2017) Vol. 5(2): 41-45

Published: January 2018

Background and Objectives: Gorlin-Goltz syndrome is an uncommon autosomal dominant inherited disorder, which is characterized by multiple odontogenickeratocysts (OKC) and basal cell carcinomas, skeletal, dental, ophthalmic and neurological abnormalities.Material and Methods: Thirteen years old male patient came with swelling of left maxilla obliterating buccal vestibule with pus discharge for 1 month. The orthopantomograph and computed tomography scan demonstrated multiple lytic lesions in maxilla and mandible. Incisional biopsy was suggestive of odontogenickeratocyst (OKC). Besides multiple OKCs; bifid ribs, palmer pits and hypertelorism were present supporting for the diagnosis as Gorlin-Goltz Syndrome.Results: The classical treatment of KCOT with enucleation with curettage or resection would have resulted in significant morbidity. Therefore we first decompressed and then enucleated the cysts.Conclusion: Gorlin-Goltz syndrome is a rare entity and the multiple KCOT can be managed with decompression followed by enucleation.Janaki Medical College Journal of Medical Sciences (2017) Vol. 5(2): 46-50
