   Publisher = {The Rockefeller Foundation},
   Year = {2013},
   Abstract = {Shared Journey: The Rockefeller Foundation, Human Capital
             and Development in Africa is one of six produced by the
             Foundation for our Centennial celebration—together, they
             tell the story of the Foundation’s work in the United
             States, Africa and Asia, and in the fields of health and
             agriculture over the last 100 years. In every society,
             development depends on investment in institutions and
             individuals. Wickliffe Rose, an early leader in The
             Rockefeller Foundation, called this “backing brains.”
             But developing human capital is a risky proposition. This
             intriguing history explores the challenges and triumphs in
             The Rockefeller Foundation’s efforts to invest in the
             people of Africa over the course of a century.},

   Abstract = {Ethnographic research on the everyday lives of those who are
             privileged to travel as vacationers or on study abroad
             programs offers important insights into assumptions about
             global connections in the 21st century. This article tells
             the stories of two journeys between Cape Town and
             California. Through these narratives I explore the
             challenges and rewards of ethnographic work with travelers
             especially when this work takes seriously their lives when
             they are not tourists. Ethnographers of tourists face many
             challenges, some practical — tourists deliberately
             seek experiences that are independent of their everyday
             lives and ethnography is at its best focusing on the
             everyday. Others are due to the anthropologist's own
             uncertainty about her position as a tourist, making the
             anthropology of tourism a kind of native anthropology. ©

   Abstract = {South Africa wants to be the African destination for
             tourists from the continent and elsewhere in the world. Its
             ambitions rely on an amorphous 'African' brand that
             simultaneously positions itself as quintessentially African
             and 'not African'. Examining this tension reveals at least
             three contradictions implicit in South Africa's current
             tourist strategies. The first is a schizophrenic response to
             Africans from elsewhere on the continent who are at once a
             critical component of South Africa's Africanness, mighty
             consumers, widely touted as criminals, seen as burdens on
             the state, and deported by the tens of thousands. The second
             is the tourist industry's empowering previously
             disadvantaged South Africans as its raison d'être, while
             relying heavily on colonial imagery that is inherently (if
             implicitly) racist. The third is the way it profits from the
             country's democratic transformation but to a large degree
             remains symbolically and financially inaccessible to most of
             its citizens. This article argues that as long as South
             African tourism is about an African brand while denying its
             African spaces and people, it will struggle to become a
             sustainable and ethical industry.},
