This book is a collection of articles from scholars and development practitioners with varying academic background and professional training. It is essentially about ethnicity, how it relates to and produces conflict as well as the establishment of consensus through an effective management of ethnic and other forms of conflicts in Ghana. The book explores the nature of ethnicity in its various dimensions. It defines and elaborates on the concept of ethnicity and explains how the term has since the 1960s replaced the more pejorative term, "tribe." The papers presented in this book do not remain at the analytical level but also provide concrete examples of the different forms of conflicts in Ghana, including those resulting from disagreements over religious practices, competition for resources, ethnic animosities, as well as chieftaincy and land-related issues.
