Body of Power, Spirit of Resistance
- Binding: Paperback

Description:
In this sophisticated study of power and resistance, Jean Comaroff analyzes the changing predicament of the Barolog boo Ratshidi, a people on the margins of the South African state. Like others on the fringes of the modern world system, the Tshidi struggle to construct a viable order of signs and practices through which they act upon the forces the engulf them. Their practices through which they act upon the forces that engulf them. Their dissenting Churches of Zion have provided an effective medium for reconstructing a sense of history and identity, one that protests the terms of colonial and post-colonial society and culture.
