Abstract
- In I Killing Your Neighbors, i Jon D. Holtzman embarks on a multi-sited, multi-vocal, dialogical ethnography of intergroup relations - violent and otherwise - in Northern Kenya. In Chapter Three, for example, he compares discourses of the Mau Mau uprising in the 1950s offered by his long-time host community, the Samburu, and their then-enemy neighbors, the Kikuyu. The text draws from more than two decades of field research with Samburu pastoralists in the Northern Kenyan Rift Valley, complemented by fieldwork among various neighboring ethnic groups such as the Kikuyu, Somalis, and Pokot.
