Liberia, established in 1847 has no history of rule by a colonial power and is of perculiar sociological interest, having been governed until the first half of the twentieth century by a minority group of immigrants from America and their descendants. The bulk of the population, however, is made up of members of about 20 tribes, between whom and the American descendants a caste-like social system has developed. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46931429851287,"sku":"9781138594210","price":12266.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781138594210.webp?v=1771613354","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/tribe-and-class-in-monrovia-9781138594210","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
