Rashiid Sheekh Cabdillaahi

Qaran iyo Qabiil Rashiid Sheekh Cabdillaahi

Qaran iyo Qabiil by Rashid Sh. Abdillahi is a profound study of how clannism is anathema to modern Somali State development. The author examines how Somali traditional norms and values are directly antagonistic to the process of state building, which is one of the overriding issues facing the Somali nation in this critical juncture of its national history.

This is a well researched study of the state versus clannism and constitutes a major contribution to the field of Somali politics in these testing and turbulent times. The book is highly recommended for all those interested in the current Somali political thought in the Horn of Africa.
