The Modernity of Witchcraft

Politics and the Occult in Postcolonial Africa

Omschrijving

This study suggests that the balance in Africa, between the prevalence of witchcraft and the forces of modernity, stems both from obsession with power and from the increasing feeling of powerlessness among the people. It also gives a parallel with aspects of politics in Western democracies.
