Seller's Description:
Fine in Very Good jacket. 320pp, 10 plates, 12 maps, 4 figures. Fine in VG dust-jacket. This classic study of Somali social organisation by a social anthropologist describes the political system of the northern Somali where, in a situation of pastoral nomadism, competition for access to water and pasture is acute and leads to frequent and long-drawn-out feuds. Loyalties based on kinship are organised through a form of social contract which distinguishes the Somali political system from otherwise similar tribal political structures.
