Description

Explore the complex social structures of the Swat Pathans with this Routledge Revivals reissue. Originally published in 1976, this critical essay in social anthropology provides a deep look into the people of the North-West Frontier Province of Pakistan. Despite their administrative ties to Pakistan, the Swat Pathans maintain a fiercely independent identity governed by their own unique codes and ways of life. Author Akbar S. Ahmed brings a unique perspective to this study through his personal family connections to the region. His work offers a clear and sophisticated analysis of their society, moving beyond simple descriptions to provide a critical re-examination of existing ethnography. This book is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the social anthropology of independent groups and the specific cultural dynamics of the Pathan people.
