Description

Explore a unique sociological study of Liberia with Tribe and Class in Monrovia. Originally published in 1964, this volume from the African Ethnographic Studies of the 20th Century series examines the distinct social stratification found in Liberia's capital city. Unlike many African nations, Liberia has no history of rule by a colonial power. This book provides a deep look at how the country has been governed by a minority group of descendants from American immigrants. It analyzes the complex social structures that emerged between this group and the larger population, which consists of members from approximately 20 different tribes. This text is a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in anthropology, sociology, and West African history. It examines the development of a caste-like social system and how social class functions in a unique political environment. Whether you are studying historical social structures or African ethnographic studies, this Routledge publication offers significant academic insight into the social dynamics of Monrovia.
