Oxford: O.U.P.. 320pp, 10 plates, 12 maps, 4 figures. Unmarked and tight. VG++ in VG++ dust-jacket.. This study of Somali social organisation by a social anthropologist and leading expert on the Somalis 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. First Edition, a nice copy. CB31 . Very Good. Hardback. 1st. Edition. 1961.
