Abstract
G. Salem—From Senegal's Bush-Country to the Latin Quarter : The ' Murid' Trade System in France. In most French cities West African small traders of various origins peddle curios, cheap souvenirs and mock antiques. These peddlers are organized in networks with rear bases in their home countries. One of these networks is made up of members of the murid brotherhood, originally a rural movement which has been able, from an agrarian first stage, to adapt to economie and social conditions in Senegalese cities, and from then on to migrate to Western Europe and build up a commercial System using as its framework the structures and practices of the brotherhood.
