Mortgaging the Ancestors: Ideologies of Attachment in Africa - Yale Agrarian Studies (YUP)

Drawing on years of ethnographic observation, this book discusses how people in Africa's interior feel about their attachment to family, to clan land, and to ancestral graves on the land. It explains why systems of property, finance, and mortgaging imposed by outsiders threaten Africa's rural people.
