Description

Originally published in 1953, this scholarly work examines how social change reshaped African domestic organization and marriage practices across the continent. The study analyses the profound effects of increased Western contact on traditional African social structures, documenting how colonial administrations and missionary efforts responded to these transformations. Contributing authors include lawyers, missionaries, anthropologists and sociologists from Africa, Europe and the USA, offering diverse professional perspectives on one of the 20th century's most significant periods of cultural change. This volume forms part of the African Ethnographic Studies of the 20th Century series and remains an essential historical reference for understanding the intersection of tradition and modernization in African societies during the mid-20th century.
