Initiating Change in Highland Ethiopia: Causes and Consequences of Cultural Transformation Book

This book is about cultural change and transformation. In a rural community in Southern Ethiopia, there are two types of rituals performed by the same people. Historical evidence suggests that one has shown remarkable stability over the years, while the other has undergone massive transformations. Dena Freeman focusses on new ethnographical and historical data from the Gamo Highlands of Southern Ethiopia to analyse how this can occur. Her results provide a new theoretical framework for understanding cultural change and a fascinating insight into a little-known region of the world.Read More
