In a rural community in southern Ethiopia, there are two types of

rituals performed by the same people. Historical evidence suggests that

one has shown remarkable stability over the years, while the other has

undergone massive transformations. External factors are the same, so

how is this to be explained?Dena Freeman focuses on new ethnographical

and historical data from the Gamo Highlands of southern Ethiopia

to tackle the question of cultural change and transformation. She uses a

comparative perspective and contrasts the continuity in sacrificial rituals

with the rapid divergence and differentiation in initiations. Freeman

argues that although external change drives internal cultural transformation,

the way in which it does is greatly influenced by the structural

organisation of the cultural systems themselves. This insight leads to a

rethinking of the analytic tension between structure and agency that is

at the heart of contemporary anthropological theory.
