Ethnicities and Tribes in Sub-Saharan Africa: Opening Old Wounds

S. N. Sangmpam, "Ethnicities and Tribes in Sub-Saharan Africa: Opening Old Wounds"
English | ISBN: 3319501992 | 2017 | 112 pages | EPUB | 3 MB

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.
