Description

Originally published in 1949, this book takes the analysis of Tale social structure further.

It shows how the patriarchal principle regulates domestic life and thus moulds individual development among the Tallensi.

The analysis of the inter-connexion of Legal, econoic and personal relationships sheds new light on the general problems of social organization in patriarchal societies, both in Africa and elsewhere.
