"One" but Divided: Tribalism and Grouping among Secondary School Students in South Sudan
Sano, Koji
Anthropology & Education Quarterly, v50 n2 p189-204 Jun 2019
This ethnographic study reconsiders the concept of tribe and its influence on group boundary-making practices in South Sudan. The findings revealed ways in which students manipulated their group boundaries by giving different meanings to nominal category of tribe. Further, the study unveiled that, moving in and out from those boundaries, students live in a complex social reality in a postcolonial, conflict-affected country of South Sudan.
