Opis

This text examines the ethnicity/nationality debate in Africa through a detailed study of the historical sources and modern transformations of inter-ethnic social relations in the culturally-diverse northern region of Cameroon. Loss of control by the centre and inter-communal violence is a recurring theme in the recent histories of Africa, and Cameroon is no exception.
