Maasai Women in Transition Gender in the Transformation of a Vastoral Society European capitalism and colonialism penetrated many parts of the world, with profound effects on pre-capitalist social formations in the affected societies. It is against this backdrop, that the pastoralist Maasai of East Africa found themselves transformed and deformed as they encountered the new system. Unlike many other societies, however, the Maasai have been represented as “conservative” and impervious to the transformational process. This book provides a historical analysis of gender relations in the Maasai society; It identifies the transformational processes that have contributed to the changed position of pastoralists in general and that of Maasai women in particular, and assesses the implications of these transformations for the development of pastoral women and men. Dr. Naomi N. Kipuri holds a B.Ed. degree from the University of Nairobi and Ph.D. in anthropology from Temple University, USA. She worked at the Kenya National Archives as an educationist and was later, a Lecturer at the Institute of African Studies, University of Nairobi. Dr. Kipuri has a wealth of experience in research on policy, pastoral development and environmental concerns. She has worked as Coordinator, Arid Lands Resource Management (ALARM) and is founder, Society for Indigenous Culture and Knowledge Systems (SOIC).
