En savoir plus sur le livre

Exploring the Rainmakers of the Nilotic Sudan, this revised and illustrated edition presents a groundbreaking anthropological perspective on African political systems. Drawing on René Girard's theory of consensual scapegoating, it challenges the traditional distinction between centralized and stateless societies. The author argues that both systems differ mainly in the emphasis placed on the king's victim role versus that of the enemy, offering a novel approach to the complex issue of regicide.
