Modernity and Its Malcontents: Ritual and Power in Postcolonial Africa 2nd edition

What role does ritual play in the lives of modern Africans? How are "traditional" cultural forms deployed by people seeking empowerment in a world where "modernity" has failed to deliver. In this collection of essays, the authors address such concepts as modernity, ritual, power and history.
