Reviews
The volume contributes to our understanding of the formal genius of age systems ... - John G. Galaty in JRAI ...East Africa is the single most important area of the world in which age-systems survive, ...This welcome volume is a substantial contribution to our knowledge of age-systems. - P.T.W. Baxter in SOAS BULLETIN If previously anthropologists had focused on a particular society and had suggested that age-systems were autonomous structures of control and sociability this volume considers age-systems as political means for competitions, violence and trans-national association transcending the isolation of social ritual, though using ritual as a political model of competition. ...an interesting and highly significant volume, particularly within the ongoing discussions of ethnicity, identity and globalisation. It provides a new theoretical framework for East African ethnography and a challenge for anthropologists of politics, religion and nationalism. - Mario I. Aguilar in CAMBRIDGE ANTHROPOLOGY
