The Ik are a small group of hunters., isolated in the mountains separating Uganda, the Sudan and Kenya, who have been driven from their natural hunting grounds into these barren wastes by the creation of a National Game Reserve~forbidden to chase the animals that once fed them, asked, though bereft of the experience, the technology and the social organization that would make farming possible, to become farmers in a land without rain. In less than three generations, they have deteriorated from a group of prosperous and daring hunters to scattered bands of hostile people whose only goal is individual survival, and who have learned that the price of survival is to give up compassion, love, affection, kindness and concern~even for their own children. The Ik can and do steal food from the mouths of their parents, throw infants out to fend for themselves, abandon the old, the sick and crippled to die without a backward glance. Walled into their compounds, living in fear of each neighbor, indifferent to anything but their own individual welfare, the Ik have evolved a society whose ethics and beliefs derive from their predicament, and whose destructive qualities mirror the cold and lonely selfishness of our own ~though we do not have their excuse of starvation and exile. In The Mountain People, Colin M. Turnbull has written a book as original and profound as The Forest People, in which his love of Africa, his understanding of "primitive" peoples, his unique capacity for recreating the people and the world of a particular tribe are joined with a remorseless description of a social collapse and decoy unmatched since the publication of Oscar Lewis' La Vida. …
