Once Intrepid Warriors : Gender, Ethnicity, and the Cultural Politics of Maasai Development Paperback / softback
by Dorothy L. Hodgson
Paperback / softback
Description
"Once Intrepid Warriors advances a brilliantly persuasive critique of development among the Maasai. . . . This historical ethnography is a tour de force, counter-balancing the analysis of cultural, political, and socio-economic transformation over the longue duree with intimate and memorable portraits of representative individuals." —Richard Werbner"In a series of chapters on the interrelationships of ethnicity, gender, and 'modernity,' Hodgson concludes that it is not the Maasai who have remained static, but rather the external images of them." —Choice". . . meticulous and well-documented . . . a valuable resource. . . ." —Africa
