Abstract: This paper is an attempt to comprehend the transformation that has been brought among the women of Manipur by their active involvement in the Self Help Groups.

Abstract: Katika makala hiitumejadili usemezano katika tamthilia ya Kilio Cha Haki(Mazrui, 1981). Hii ni kutokana na kauli ya Bakhtin (1981) kwamba usemezano haupatikani katika tamthilia bali hupatikana katika riwaya. Tunalenga kuangazia ni kwa namna gani usemezano umewasilishwa katika tamthilia ya Kilio Cha Haki. Tutaangazia vile ambavyo Mazrui ametumia Sajili mbalimbali,mivutano baina ya "mimi" na "yeye", lugha ya wahusika, utumizi wa matini zingine na masimulizi ya urejeleaji ya moja kwa moja ya kifasihi katika uwasilishaji wa ujumbe wake. Sifa hizi ndizo Bakhtin(1981) anasema kwamba hazipatikani katika tamthilia na kwa hivyo hakuna usemezano katika tamthilia.......

Abstract: La culture de l'anacarde connait une forte croissance dans les régions de savane en Côte d'Ivoire. Elle est produite dans 19 régions du pays et s'impose désormais comme la principale source de revenus pour les populations locales et participe de facto à la constitution du PIB national. Cependant, le développement de cette économie arbustive, consommatrice de terres, n'est pas sans conséquences sur les rapports socio-communautaires dans une zone traditionnellement dédiée aux cultures annuelles. A partir d'enquêtes quantitatives et qualitatives conduites dans quatre (4) sous-préfectures de la région du Béré (Kounahiri, Bouandougou, Dianra et Mankono), cet article décrit les rapports fonciers en cours de recompositions dans le bassin anacardier et analyse...........

However, scholars have not assessed its impact on professionalism among nurses. This paper investigates its impact on the professional practices of nurses in Enugu state of Nigeria public health institutions. The study adopts survey methods wherein 270 respondents were selected as study sample. The data generated was analyzed using tables, percentage, and SPSS version 20.0 tools.
