Description

This academic work examines the profound impact of colonialism, ethnicity and armed conflict on Angola's Ovimbundu people, the nation's largest ethnic group. Drawing on extensive fieldwork including oral testimonies, life stories, participant observation and archival research, the author shifts focus from colonial institutions and international politics to centre African experiences and perspectives. The book analyses transformations sparked by Christianity and colonialisation, offering fresh insights into Angola's complex social, political and economic history. Published by Routledge as part of their Studies in the Modern History of Africa series, this scholarly study provides nuanced understanding of how external forces reshaped local communities and identities across generations.

Key Features

Based on extensive fieldwork in Angola including oral testimonies, life stories and archival materials that ground the analysis in primary sources.

Shifts analytical focus from colonial enterprise and international politics to prioritise African experiences and local responses throughout.

Analyses transformations introduced by Christianity and colonialisation on Ovimbundu society and ethnic identity.

Part of Routledge's Studies in the Modern History of Africa series, providing peer-reviewed scholarship on modern African history.

Incorporates participant-observation methodology alongside historical research to develop comprehensive understanding of Angolan communities.
