Somalia and the Dissolution of the Nation‐State 818–824

Abstract

Anthropologists appear less interested in examining the dissolution of the nation‐state than other social scientists. This is curious. Theoretically we may already possess tools for understanding conditions of dissolution. More significantly, we often are inadvertently caught within such situations. The ongoing dissolution of nation‐states such as Somalia should thus raise questions about structure, perspective, and the role of anthropologists.
