Prelude to the Mahdiyya: Peasants and Traders in the Shendi Region, 1821–1885 - African Studies
Anders Bjørkelo
During the first colonial period (the Turkiyya, 1821–85), the Shendi region of the Northern Sudan was inhabited by peasants, traders and nomads. This book analyses socio-economic change among the peasants and traders during this formative period of Sudanese history. Administration, agriculture and trade in transition from a pre-colonial to a colonial economy are also discussed.
