Freedom in Fulani Social Life
Paul Riesman\'s Freedom in Fulani Social Life is based upon his two years of residence among the Jelgobe, a group of semi-nomadic Fulani of the Sahel in Upper Volta, western Africa. Since its original publication, this classic study has profoundly influenced the field of anthropology through its re-examination of the enthnographer\'s personal input on his research. \"Freedom in Fulani Social Life richly documents how the ethnographer\'s own personal and cultural background is implicated in the research process. . . . For this reason, [Riesman\'s] book will be of paramount interest to all ethnographers.\"&;Philip L. Kilbride, Reviews in Anthropology \"A remarkably well-written and insightful account of Fulani life. . . . In addition to using the conventional approaches of participating in and observing the daily activities of the Jelgobe . . . Riesman enriches his account by examining his personal feelings about particular incidents.\"&;Library Journal \"An interesting and provocative study.\"&;Choice At the time of his death in 1988, Paul Riesman was an anthropologist who taught at Carleton College.
