Abstract
Conflict between village peasants and the modern state is associated with increased concern with witchcraft. Villagers accuse one another of witchcraft and do not accuse the state bureaucrats with whom they have many unresolved grievances. The argument is that in accusing one another of witchcraft the village peasants are displacing conflicts with more powerful outsiders. [Senegal, religion, witchcraft, social change, symbolism]
