Traditional Institutions In Kembong Cameroon written by Hans-Joachim Koloss and has been published by Dietrich Reimer this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2008 with History categories.

Egalitarian societies belong to the most important political systems of old Africa. They could seldom claim that, however, as they were assessed as chaotic and backward by the colonial powers. Nevertheless, in south-west Cameroon, the Ejagham, in spite of all modern influences, have kept the significant elements of their old culture. The foundations of the egalitarian system, to which all hierarchical tendencies were suspect, were maintained by the Ejagham throughout the long colonial era. Hans-Joachim Koloss succeeded in studying, in Kembong, the capital of the region, the essential aspects of the society and world-view of this small and, until now, little-known race of people and in portraying them in an extensive series of photographs.

The Professionalisation Of African Medicine written by Murray Last and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2018-09-03 with Social Science categories.

Originally published in 1986, this book draws upon a range of authors to reflect wide interest in systematising traditional medicine, and to include material on significant instances of regulation or organisation. It was the first book to study the efforts of traditional healers and their newly formed professional associations and as such constitutes a pioneering collection of sources. Because of the changing position of traditional medicine it may well also be a unique record: before long what is described here will largely have disappeared.
