| This study is a case study of Senegal and Guinea-Bissau. Its aim was to contribute to the current debate on male circumcision through an analysis of the cultural concepts, practices and social relations associated with male circumcision in two West African countries, Senegal and Guinea-Bissau. The findings highlight the complex conceptualisation of male circumcision present among a wide variety of ethnic groups, which cover religious, spiritual and biomedical aspects.Author: Cheikh Ibrahima Niang, Hamadou BoiroOwner: SAHARA |
