How did the Azande use witchcraft accusations as a mean of social control?
The Azande people utilized witchcraft accusations as a form of social control by reinforcing communal values and norms. When individuals were accused of witchcraft, it often reflected underlying tensions or conflicts within the community, allowing for the resolution of disputes and the reinforcement of social hierarchies. Accusations served as a deterrent against behaviors deemed unacceptable, fostering conformity and cohesion among group members. This mechanism also provided an outlet for expressing grievances and resolving interpersonal conflicts without resorting to violence.
