- Résumé
- The islamized societies of subsaharan Africa combine ethnicity, Islam and modem political and économie factors into a variety of local situations, as demonstrated hère by the case-studies of three Moslem groups of the Western Sudan, the Hausa, Soninke and Wolof. While it is impossible to dissociate Islam from ethnicity, it would be a mistake to overstress the latter so as to draw an artificial distinction between 'real' or 'pure' Islam and 'déviant' local varieties. Arabicization is but one factor among many others and does not suffice by itself to characterize the depth and extent of islamization.
