The Social Context of the Mau Mau Movement in Kenya (1952-1960)
explores the social aspects of the Mau Mau Movement, which have
been relatively unexamined in scholarly studies of the movement.
This work situates the Mau Mau in the context of "Social Movement"
literature; and more importantly, blends theory and practice
through the use of first-hand narrative from Muigai Kanyua, a
fighter in the Mau Mau forest for at least three years. Muigai
Kanyua describes the need for strong social networks, trust, faith,
and determination in the community and how the Mau Mau provided
this courage and perseverance. Through detailed research and
Kanyua's narrative, author Kinuthia Macharia explores the social
climate that united different clans and ethnic groups and sustained
the Mau Mau Movement. The work also examines the role of women in
the movement and combat, and the enduring relevance of the Mau Mau
movement in Kenya's politics and economic development.
