ABSTRACT

I argue that Colonial rule in Central Tivland affected the people in such a manner that it was responsible for the transformation of these people from producing for societal use to production for colonial consumption and export, an activity that emphasised cash crop production, lb facilitate this colonial economy, the super structure had to be affected. It was consequently transformed to provide and legitimise colonial exploitation. This was done by a marginalization of the existing class structure in leadership during precolonial times and the emergence of a new class alignment suited to the new scheme of things. However the kind of class arrangement that now emerged was not a logical development of the peoples history and a dependency culture was therefore erected, This resulted, at the granting flag of independence.in the emergence of petty bourgeois politicians who were notable to organize society along lines that could avert the disasters of the Tiv crisis of 1960 and 1964. For, the conflict of interests that arose between and among the emergent social classes during colonial rule,were moderated by the colonial state. The state had contained such revolts and the extended tradition of revolt by cruel suppression. By 1960 however, the new class that controlled the state was • incapable either at the regional level or the local level to moderate these social affairs because of the ahistorical and illogicality of its emergence. This study covers the whole epoch of colonial rule in central Tiv land. Chapters One and Two are concerned with defining the area and scope of study and an examination of the debate on colonial rule at the theoretical and conceptual levels. Chapter Three attempts to examine the extent and depth of the transformation in terras of land, economy and labour up to 1935. This chapter shows the kind of class forces that were in existence before colonial rule came to marginalise them. Chapter Four treats a general overview of the impact of colonial rule on the political system and the establishment of colonial administrative apparatus- which heralded the creation of new class conjectures while Chapter Five is interested in how the family and household in Central Tivland were themselves affected with the result that colonial over rule wrecked havoc on the values and attributes that had remained tradition, thus preparing the ground for petty-bourgeois party politics, treated in Chapter Six, which is also the concluding chapter. The Post Colonial violence which, shook Central Tivland and echoed all over Tivland in 1960 and 1964. were themselves a logical development derived from the illegitimacy of colonial rule on the people
