In this dissertation I examine the history and musical culture related to the Kawuugulu royal drums of the Baganda people. I argue that the royal drums and their use articulate principles of social organization through symbolic performances of history, which performers reenact in ways that suit contemporary cultural needs. I analyze historical narratives regarding the royal drums in order to decipher what they reveal about the process of Kawuugulu's origin, establishment, and historical development. My analysis reveals that this process drew on the two related domains of kinship and kingship, both of which have long served as the backbone of the Baganda's social organization. Furthermore, I examine how the Kawuugulu royal drums articulate principles of Ganda social organization by acting as symbols and objects of history. To this end, I investigate the cultural importance of drum names and statuses, tuning and maintenance, storage and transportation, performance rules and positions, and a number of historical customs including pairing and dressing drums, placing them on bark cloth, and smearing them with ghee and beer. I also discuss how texts associated with Kawuugulu royal drum bisoko (motifs) articulate principles of Ganda social organization by serving as poetic frameworks for reenacting history. I then look at how Kawuugulu royal performances (via history) articulate consanguinity, a domain whose logic I analyze by focusing on how the consanguinal ties that Butiko Clan members have with some non-Clan members enable the latter to participate in Kawuugulu royal performances. I examine the relationship between consanguinity and the belief that the Kawuugulu royal drum set may exact revenge upon Butiko Clan consanguines who refuse to participate in its performances and upon ineligible non-consanguines of the Clan who do perform. My analysis demonstrates that Butiko Clan consanguinity revolves around a number of principles (including ancestry, history, affinity, and blood brotherhood) and that its multifaceted nature makes it possible for the various clans of Baganda to participate in Kawuugulu royal performances, which in turn foster unity across the kingdom of Buganda.

Originally published in 1957, this is an account of the Chiga, a Bantu tribe of Western Uganda. The Chiga are an independent farming people who have no tribal organization, and unlike the neighbouring East African peoples of a similar culture, no caste system. For this reason they are of particular comparative and historical interest. Full accounts are given of their social system, indigenous legal procedure, land and property rights, domestic and economic life and religious beliefs, with particular reference to the powerful Nyabingi cult, which, until its suppression by the British, was of vital social and political importance.

Based on eleven months of field work (2009-2011), this book analyzes the situation of youth in urban Gulu, Northern Uganda, in the aftermath of the war between the Lord’s Resistance Army and the Ugandan Government (1986-2006). Specifically, it focuses on the generation that was born and grew up during the 20-year war: How do members of this generation perceive and evaluate socio-cultural changes which occurred in Acholi society throughout the war years? How do they imagine their future society? And how do they react to the expectations directed at them by their elders? In order to answer these questions, the book draws on rich ethnographic material. It provides an in-depth analysis of how imaginations of the post-war society are contested and negotiated between different groups of social actors – youth and elders, men and women as well as local, national and international actors. While some try to re-establish former cultural practices and conventions and call for a ‘retraditionalization’ of Acholi society, others lobby for ‘modernization’ and attempt to establish ‘new’ social structures, values and norms which are strongly influenced by local understandings of ‘the Western culture’. The book presents numerous examples of the multiple and complex ways young people strategically position themselves in these debates and make use of the various discourses on culture, tradition and modernity in their negotiations of generational, gender, family, and peer-to-peer relations.
