Given the relatively recent introduction of biomedical ideas of alcoholism and addiction in Uganda, most of these people have used other therapeutic resources, including herbal aversion therapies, engagements with balubaale spirits, and forms of deliverance and spiritual warfare practiced in Pentecostal churches. While these methods are at times severe, they contain within them understandings of the self and practices of sociality that point away from models of addiction as a chronic relapsing brain disease and towards the possibility of release. Higher Powers offers a reconceptualization of addiction and recovery that may prove relevant well beyond Uganda. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aedd43c620b85a061f5ecf4/1541989052319-VZW92XEWFB8YP3KB9SEX/DSCF0145.JPG Home - Research Associate & publications Since 2007, I have contributed to and co-designed numerous doctoral and post-doctoral research projects. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aedd43c620b85a061f5ecf4/b0a57da2-579e-4d7a-b02e-184c4039a9f1/9780197267233.jpeg Home This source book of translated texts gives insight into the history of religious and social change in East Africa, from the 1890s until the 1930s, through the everyday concerns of African Christians. Originally in Luganda, the documents are written by, or about, an early Ugandan clergyman Apolo Kivebulaya who propagated a Protestant form of Christianity in Toro and Ituri (Congo). They show how a literate Christian identity was formed away from centres of power, and how African admirers responded to Kivebulaya and influenced their own societies. Kivebulaya was a forerunner of a piety propagated through the East African Revival that continues to infuse contemporary Christianity in the region and influences in the Great Lakes region.
