Livelihood and Resistance
A Third World proletariat
The countries of the Third World are increasingly being drawn into the economic orbit of the Western World. Their manufacturing sectors are developing, often quite rapidly; so too are their public service sectors. Their metropolitian cities are growing at phenomenal rates. But two thirds of the population of these cities may be described as the 'urban poor

Sacred Kingship and Government among the Yoruba
Opening ParagraphInterest in African sacred kingship has for long been centred upon its ritual aspects; descriptions of highly colourful ceremonies have provided a convenient introduction to the study of a people's religious beliefs, yielding also examples of the ritual sanctions by which the ruler enforces obedience. As a result the constitutional aspects of kingship have been largely ignored

The Yoruba Lineage
Opening ParagraphThe Yoruba, a people numbering over 51⁄2 million, living in south-west Nigeria, need little introduction. They are almost unique among African peoples in that they live in large settlements, many of which were capitals of chiefdoms; 42 per cent, of them live in towns of over 20,000 people and there are nine towns with more than 50,000 inhabitants. Ibadan, now the capital of the Western Region of Nigeria, has a population of nearl…

The Itsekiri in the nineteenth century; an outline social history
In 1800 the Itsekiri kingdom of Warri in the north-western corner of the Niger delta had a highly centralized government. In 1848, the king died, followed shortly by his two principal heirs, and a state of anarchy developed in which order was maintained largely through the balance held between the two largest descent groups or ‘Houses’. The latter part of the century saw the rise, and defeat by the British of Nana Olomu, possibly the greatest of …

Some problems of tenancy in Yoruba land tenure
SYNOPSIS SYNOPSIS The traditional pattern of Yoruba land tenure differed little from other forms of tribal land tenure found in Africa. The lineage was the basic land holding unit, legends telling how an immigrant and his kinsmen, on arriving at a town, would be given by its ruler a block of land to be used by his descendants in perpetuity. This land became divided between the segments of the lineage to a degree determined largely by the local de…

Family Property among the Yoruba
“The land is family land—he may not sell it”; “the land is our family land—it does not belong to the chiefs”. How often such statements are heard in West African courts and how difficult it is to distinguish the rights claimed by the individual, the family and the community. To resolve this difficulty is the task which Dr. G. B. A. Coker has set himself in his recently published book Family Property among the Yorubas . 2 In this contribution to t…
Some Notes on the Yoruba Rules of Succession and on “Family Property”
“A social anthropological approach to property as a social institution leads us to the position where we look upon inheritance not as ‘the entrance of living persons into the possession of dead persons’ property’ (a) or even as ‘succession to all rights of the deceased’ (b) but rather as the transference of statuses from the dead to the living with respect to specific property objects.” 2 A man holds many statuses each of which probably gives rig…
