Intentionalism, anti-intentionalism, and aesthetic inquiry: implications for the teaching of choreography

Article Abstract:

One of the most controversial debates in modern literary and artistic theory is the relevance of the artist's intention to the creation of a specific work. This is termed the intentionalist or anti-intentionalist debate. The question is whether an artist should have a specific plan before beginning a work or whether this plan and meaning will emerge from the work process itself, whether a critic should analyze the artist's intentions or deal with the immediacy of the work. A model of aesthetic inquiry taking from both approaches to be used in choreography class is presented.

Multipartyism and democratization in Cameroon

Article Abstract:

The transformation from a one party to a multiparty system in Cameroon failed to democratize the country. The failure is mainly attributed to the weakness and inefficiency of opposition parties to force Pres Paul Biya's regime into a democratic transition. Other contributing factors include the autocratic attitude of Pres Biya and the lack of national support for the opposition's pro-democracy campaign.
