摘要

“八月会议”是尼日利亚东南部伊博妇女家乡协会的年度返校节或大会。对于尼日利亚东南部的当地社区来说，八月会议是推动发展、管理冲突和建设和平的真正平台。但八月会议也是酝酿和促进冲突的工具。尽管8月会议在解决冲突和建设和平方面的作用得到了承认和赞扬，但其制造冲突的能力在很大程度上被忽视了。本文借鉴诺莱坞电影《八月会议》和实证研究结果，揭示了八月会议在尼日利亚东南部促进人际和社区内部冲突的方式。

Rethinking ‘August Meeting’ in Southeastern Nigeria

‘August Meeting’ is the annual homecoming or convention of Igbo women hometown associations of Southeastern Nigeria. For local communities in Southeastern Nigeria, August Meeting is a veritable platform for driving development, managing conflicts and building peace. But August Meeting is also a tool for hatching and promoting conflicts. While the conflict resolution and peacebuilding role of August Meeting has been acknowledged and applauded, its capacity for producing conflicts has been largely ignored. Drawing on a Nollywood film, August Meeting, and empirical research findings, this article exposes the ways in which August Meeting promotes interpersonal and intracommunal conflicts in Southeastern Nigeria.
