Have you had a look at Clojure namespaces?
http://clojure.org/reference/namespaces

Thanks for the ref!

Did anyone else find it odd that Clojure’s namespace-related functions use all three namespace affix conventions? For example, name-: (ns-unmap, ns-name), -name: (all-ns, find-ns), and neither: (import, intern). That caught my clojure-ignorant eye.

Thanks,
