CHIEFS & COUNCILS IN RHODESIA
Transition from Patriarchal to Bureaucratic Power

The author examines the changing position of African Chiefs in Rhodesia from 1890 to 1969, especially during the 1960's.  She gives an account of social organization and community structure in a society that was rapidly changing from patriarchalism to bureaucracy.  She analyses the relationship of modern chiefs with their own people and with the European controlled government, as well as the images which the chiefs have of themselves.
