Description for Ethnicities and Tribes in Sub-Saharan Africa
Hardback. Num Pages: 108 pages, biography. BIC Classification: 1HFM; HBL; JFSL. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 210 x 148. .
This book proposes new avenues for understanding tribal allegiance in Sub-Saharan Africa. Much research on ethnicity and cultural pluralism in Sub-Saharan Africa falsely equates the term "tribe" with "ethnicity" and obscures the differences between Sub-Saharan Africa and other regions. It also puts too much emphasis on the role of the colonial state in fostering tribal allegiance. This book challenges these claims and offers an alternate way of understanding tribal allegiance in Sub-Saharan Africa.
