For many women and men, poor and wealthy alike, these institutions have been economic and social lifelines. Among many African peoples, they provide the main source of rural and u…

The Comparative Study of Rotating Credit Associations
THE TERM 'rotating credit association', as used by Geertz (i 962), seems to be the most apt so far devised for institutions which have previously been called esusu or contribution clubs, or have been included in the wider groups of thrift, loan, and benevolent associations. A satisfactory definition is still lacking. For example, Geertz writes: 'The basic principle upon which the rotating credit association is founded is everywhere the same: a lu…

This article attempts to examine certain manifestations of female militancy in Africa, not only for their own interest, but also to see whether they can throw any light upon the completely independent modern women's liberation movements with which we are now familiar in the West. The African ethnographical material, which is set out first, refers mainly to the Bakweri, the Balong and the Kom of West Cameroon. Besides oral reports collected from C…

The Social Anthropology of Women and Feminist Anthropology
The author is Director of the Centre for CrossCultural Research on Women, Queen Elizabeth House, Oxford. Social anthropologists have tended modestly to avoid the subjective anecdote but this is more respectable nowadays due to various trends, for example: the notion of 'personal anthropology' (following Pocock), techniques favoured by some feminist scholars, and the renewed interest in reflexive anthropology and 'anthropology at home'. Perhaps, t…
