Drawing on her fieldwork in Zanzibar during the 1990s, Larsen (social anthropology and African studies, U. of Oslo) explores spirit possession in Zanzibar Town, the capital of the country on the Swahili Coast of East Africa. The relationship between humans and spirits is a window through which she looks at Zanzibari discourses on difference and sameness, discourses that also apply to distinctions between women and men and between what the people call makabila.
