The Illusion of Tribe
A. Southall 35. In 1983 in their book
The Invention of Tradition
Eric Hobsbawm and Terence Ranger argued that Britain’s indirect rule (mainly exercised through existing chiefs) required nothing less than ‘the invention of tradition’ by the colonial masters who needed Africans to believe that these arrangements were founded on ancient African custom. Ten years later Ranger would backtrack in favour of ‘the imagination of tradition’: the new concept implying equal cooperation between white and black in tradition-making.
