Abstract
The continent of Africa, in common with other tropical areas which have come under the relentless expansionism of Western civilization, is experiencing widespread and revolutionary changes in every aspect of human behavior. The intensity of culture impacts has swept the bewildered African from his once sheltered shamba and kraal (i.e., farm and hut) to labor for the white man in gold mine, factory, or farm; it has acquainted him with the delights and temptations of a money economy, and introduced him to new religions which, while destroying all credence in his tribal beliefs, does not always immediately give an understandable and completely satisfying substitute in return.' A gulf often develops between the old generation, too oldfashioned to catch one, and the young men and women who have acquired a smattering of Western ideas and pooh-pooh the traditional sanctions and customs of their tribal society.
