Zanzibar prior to independence in January 1964. They give an
excellent portrayal of the events leading up to the conflict, as
well as lending pertinent insights into the increasingly hostile

time) accurate, the Ethnographic Survey contains sections as
follows: Physical Environment Linguistic Data Demography History
& Traditions of Origin Nomenclature Grouping Cultural Features:
Religion, Witchcraft, Birth, Initiation, Burial Social &
Political Organization: Kinship, Marriage, Inheritance, Slavery,
Land Tenure, Warfare & Justice Economy & Trade Domestic
Architecture Each of the 50 volumes will be available to buy

East Central Africa, North-Eastern Africa, Southern Africa, West
Central Africa, Western Africa, and Central Africa Belgian Congo.
The volumes are supplemented with maps, available to view on
routledge.com or available as a pdf from the publishers.
Recent research in Africa has shown a wide range of political
systems, from small societies of wandering hunters to large states
of several million people comparable with mediaeval European feudal
kingdoms. In between are many societies in which a central
government is lacking; the political system is based upon a balance
of power between many small groups, which with their lack of
classes or specialized political offices, have been called 'ordered
anarchies'. First published in 1958.
