This work was done in a context where groups for
culture revitalization sprang all over Cameroon. By
focusing on the actors, means and challenges of
culture revival, it aims to describe the outcome of
a process of de-tribalisation during which ethnic
groups had to relinquish their traditions in order to subscribe to modernization. The revitalization of
the Gbaya Culture within the Sirta group, works
against this trend; tradition is made relevant and
used in the current context as a tool for
respectability, social element for identity
reconstruction and ethnic cohesion.
This study deals with the struggle for adaptation to
a changing environment and the (re) invention of
tradition. The book also highlights hindrances
pertained in that process.
By placing this debate in the global context of
encounters between civilizations, this book reveals
dilemmas that occur in people s lives, choices that
are to be made, and mainly the state of bewilderment
in which members of ethnic groups find themselves in
Africa and more specifically in Cameroon.
