Though brief, this study has benefited from the intellectual and moral support of many individuals. I owe an enormous debt of gratitude to colleagues who have provided me with both their time and criticism in the preparation of this paper. I am particularly grateful to those who have been most intimately involved with this project: Jonathon Glassman, J. O. Hunwick, E. Monter, R. S. O=Fahey, and John Rowe. The realization of the study, however, could not have been possible without the critical insights of many others who read various drafts of the paper, including Edward Alpers, Mary Jo Arnoldi, C. Kusimba, R. Pouwels, and A. Sheriff, as well as Kianga Ford and my graduate colleagues at Northwestern University. Of course, this project owes much to the tireless effort of the editorial board of the Program for African Studies Working Papers series. I consider it a great fortune to have had Jane Guyer, Roseann Mark, and Akbar Virmani as editors of this paper, and credit for its completion is shared with them.
