dc.descriptionRural Africa is important in its own right. For scholars, it is important as well in that it poses problems which offer opportunities for intellectual progress. Until recently, most observers behaved as if the urban and industrial areas were determining the fundamental character of the African continent. For some, the cities embodied and instilled new cultural values. For others, they propagated new forms of social organization. And, for most, the urban and industrial sectors contained the forces of change; the rural areas, the forces of inertia. Certainly, for political scientists, the cities represented the critical political arena; for it was in the towns of Africa that political movements were organized, voters mobilized, riots fomented, and coups set in motion.-
