Opis

Atlanticization-or interaction between regional processes and Atlantic forces such as the slave trade and Christianization-from 1750 to 1920 transformed gender into a primary mode of social differentiation in the Bight of Biafra. Mbah examines this process to fill a major gap in our understanding of gender's role in precolonial Africa.
