Opis:: This article concerns to the present process of globalization we can observe in Kenya - its political and socio-cultural aspects. Globalization in political dimension, which was beginning with coming colonial era, fructified an adaptation of British state structure too African realities. However, a very complex picture of these multi- ethnic society it wasn't without influence on the state functioning, fixed (strengthened) the traditional patterns of locality in power relation. 0n the other side, the state police tends to building social and political unity of Kenya. Parallel to this process, there become visible in the sphere of culture, specially connected with appearance the new patterns of social communication, consumptions and spending leisure time. Is it the beginning of new identities have emerged on the ground of modernizing society or the picture of "syncretistic society" which have reconciled tradition with the present? These are the questions which the author of this article put.

Opis:: One of the essential elements of Kenyan political history is the issue of constitutionalism. From 1963 until 2010, the so-called “Lancaster House Constitution” was in force. It was outdated, repeatedly amended and associated with Jomo Kenyatta’s and Daniel Arap Moi’s authoritarian regimes. In the 1990s, the newly formed and now legal political opposition, leading Kenyan figures and human rights organisations increasingly demanded a democratisation process, an important element of which was meant to be a new Kenyan constitution. The authors of the book discuss this subject matter, which is especially important for the process of Kenyan constitutional reform.

Opis:: This paper assesses the effects of the staff separation process on the employees of AMREF Kenya. The Survey Research Design was used to carry out this study with the aim of accurately reflecting the real figure in the wider population of AMREF Kenya employees and to find out the effects of AMREF Kenya’s Separation Process towards the employees. The study population consisted of men and women who are employees of AMREF Kenya Country Office. The Systematic Random Sampling technique was used to obtain a sample size of 50 employees, 42 of whom participated in the study. Approval was sort by the Principal Investigator from the management of AMREF Kenya Country Office; a brief introduction and purpose of the study was given, and a written /oral consent to take part in the study was then obtained. This was followed by data collection using questionnaires that had both quantitative and qualitative properties. The questionnaires were collected after a month from all the 42 participants and were stored, then the data analyzed. Data entry was done during analysis where the questionnaires’ serial numbers were cross checked to confirm if all questionnaires were returned. Data entry was carried out using the Microsoft Excel package. The data was then edited to correct errors and verification was done to eliminate any discrepancies in the numbers entered. The data was summarized appropriately using means and proportions, and it was analyzed using the IBM SPSS version 20.0 where the findings were presented in tables and figures for easy interpretation. The findings show that majority of the separated staff were stressed as a result of their job loss; this was followed by financial difficulties, depression, poor health and family problems. The paper further shows that the employees of AMREF Kenya experienced high levels of uncertainty after layoffs; their trust towards management reduced; they were angered by layoffs and their loyalty towards the organization slightly reduced. Employee productivity and participation, and their confidence towards the management of AMREF Kenya worsened. It was concluded that the effects of the staff separation at AMREF Kenya negatively impacted on both the separated and retained staff. The findings show that separated employees face a plethora of challenges as a result of the layoff which affects their morale and way of life. The layoffs are also detrimental to the retained staff as they negatively affect their productivity, loyalty and confidence towards AMREF Kenya’s management thus causing them to seek for employment opportunities with job security in mind. The study recommended that AMREF’s management should carry out employee engagement surveys on a regular basis to find out the various implications that both the separated and retained staff experience as a result of the layoffs and ways to mitigate them.

Opis:: The sociolinguistic context of prolonged language contact in contemporary Kenya should lead to a certain amount of influence of the languages on one another, e.g. through loanwords. The main aim of the present paper was to examine English in Kenya to show what kind of words are borrowed from African languages and their analysis within the framework of the borrowing theories formulated in Tappolet (1913–16), Haugen (1950), Weinreich (1953), Dardano – Trifone (1995), Hock – Joseph (1996), Krefeld (1999) and McColl-Millar (2007). The data for this study come from the International corpus of English for East Africa (ICE-EA).

Opis:: One of the most significant features of the modern countries in Africa is that an alien educational method was brought there from Europe and was combined with the indigenous African or Islamic educational structures and institutions. The new educational system, described as secular, conflicted especially with those existing systems which were religious in nature. Western education was, however, hard to resist because of all the advantages it contained in terms of preparing Africans for a new economic structure and technology, and the accompanying job opportunities. This led to the following dilemmas: Was it possible to combine the traditional and modern systems of education? Was it possible to modernise without eliminating the religious element of the educational system? These questions summarise the main problematic with which the Muslim scholars of the East African coast were confronted at the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth century’s. It was the time when the Arab Islamic civilisation provided the ideal model for Muslim practice and conduct as a new European model of life was emerging. And all this was taking place in a particular cultural context, Swahili. Some leaders of the Swahili Islamic community realized that there was no alternative to modifying their traditional system of education and opening it to the modern tendencies. One of these leaders was Sheikh al-Amin b. Ali al-Mazrui. Through his various activities, teaching and writings, he strongly influenced the educational development of Islam in East Africa. This paper presents some aspects of Islamic education in Kenya, where the traditional Islamic concept of education has encountered one of its greatest challenges: modern education. The clash between these two entirely different concepts created some problems and brought into question even fundamental elements of the previous system. Consequently, the mediaeval structure of the Quranic school was modernized and a new form, the madrasa, emerged, this also highlighted the problem of female education, so that, eventually, Muslim girls were allowed to acquire a proper education. The educational problems that arose on the East African coast at the beginning of the past century are reflected in the life activity of Sheikh al-Amin. His legacy and the clash between these two concepts had far-reaching consequences, which continue today. The particular focus of this work concerns aspects of the educational system of the East African coast at the beginning of the twentieth century. This is of great personal interest since the author has had the opportunity of working as a Catholic missionary in various Kenyan schools where he experienced the mission challenges of Islam in Kenya.

Opis:: Aim/purpose – The aim of this paper was to establish the nexus between a budget deficit and selected macroeconomic variables in Kenya. This adds to the existing literature while the methodology and choice of the econometric tools used improve the predictability of the link between a budget deficit and macroeconomic variables. The results are relevant to policy makers as they may help improve understanding of budget deficit management. Design/methodology/approach – The study used time series data for the period from 1976 to 2018 and employed the Vector Autoregression model reinforced by the Keynesian Mundell–Fleming framework. Findings – The impulse response function derived from the vector autoregression model revealed that shocks from both interest rate and exchange rate had a positive impact on budget deficit. External debt servicing and current account deficit shocks had a negative impact on the budget deficit. Research implications/limitations – Interest rate and exchange rate policies remain key in reducing the growth of the budget deficit. Policies on external debt servicing, such as timely payment of debts and prudent investment of borrowed funds, will also reduce the budget deficit. Originality/value/contribution – The study employed transmission mechanism which involves multiple equations to establish the nexus between a budget deficit and macroeconomic variables in Kenya.
