Adihou, Alain-François. "Coopération et développement agricoles en milieu Aja-Fon (Bénin)." Paris 10, 1987. http://www.theses.fr/1987PA100201.
Full textThe co-operative experiments of the Aja-Fon populations (Benin), from 1930 to 1985, have not entailed the agricultural development of this circle. There, the strictly economical attitude is influenced by religious and cultural values. The agricultural development is considered as the modernization of the agriculture and as the transformation of the production's relations. It's necessary to exceed the polemic maintained about this question by they who assert that the collectivization must precede and entail the mechanization (ideological foundation of the co-operation) and they who affirm that only the mechanization can facilitate the assembling of the agricultural producers (technical foundation of the co-operation). The industrial revolution and the change in the production's relations are all necessary. But, a significant growth of the productivity of the agricultural work, then the growth of the production, from the transformation of the social relations on the base of a simple assembling of the peasants and their traditional tools is impossible. With the Fon, the familial and communautary mode of production set the agriculture out to be a big extent's agriculture, that will be the modernization and the mechanization profitable. For that, the institution of the individualism in the agriculture is a regression. Considering the alienation's right in the traditional practices of the right, it is possible to set up another model of development in Africa. The question is no more to follow Jean-Paul Sartre, "the hell is the others”, and to fall back all on the “others”. This way of doing doesn’t open, truly, each specific socio-cultural space on its own development
Hounton, Jean-Baptiste. "Le mythe de Sakpata au Bénin : approches littéraire, sémiotique et sociologique." Paris 4, 1995. http://www.theses.fr/1995PA040203.
Full textThis study is meant for young Beninese students as well as foreign readers, to help them to imagine the world of African mythology through a particular example. We have studied a cosmogonical myth, which is very well known in the whole region of Beninese coast. Its name is Sakpata: the god of earth. The mythical story: when the world was still in the shape of a gourd and it was not totally created, the creator send one of his ministers named Sakpata to achieve the making of the earth and to rule it. Sakpata founded the famous city of Ile-Ife. When he become very old, his sons deserted him and then he turned himself into a white ant-hill (termitarium) inhabited by a snake. Its meaning: these two elements together,- the white ant-hill and the snake-, go to make the god of earth, who is himself the symbolical representation of the original couple: the man and the woman. This myth constitutes the foundations of the societies and their economical and cultural realities, among the peoples in this area

Full textThe ethno-sociological study took place in the Ouémé valley, located in south east Benin. The population, whose rate of natural increase is 2,4%, is established in villages bordering on the Ouémé river and in villages bordering on the plateau of Sakete; the southernmost villages live by a lacustrine economy whereas the others have a mixed economy. The history of the wemenu is linked with the migrations of multifamilial groups belonging to the yoruba, aizo, adja-fon and tofinu. The adja-fon imposed their language, their gods, vodun, and refusal to be governed by a centralizing authority. These various groups never formed a homogeneous political unity; however, they created an original society, the wemenu society, where the chiefs of lineage, vodun cults and secret societies compete with one another for influence. Equality between individuals is recognized by the wemenu and is expressed in their submission to prohibitions their choice of sexual partner, the choice of a means of livelihood. All the young people of both sexes, the non-initiated as wells as the initiated into vodun cult, have learned to distinguish between the sexual activities aimed at erotic pleasure and those aimed at procreation. The eroticization of sexuality is a particular phenomenon of the socialization of the individual: such as the elongation of the clitoris and the labia minora for the girls. . .

Full textSituated a hundred kilometres or so from the atlantic coast, the plateau of Abomey has given birth to the kingdom of Danxome, which is one of the important kingdoms in the southern area of the present day republic of Benin. Its peoples have probably been constitued by successive movements of populations since the Xth century mainly from the east to the west and from the south to the north. The yorubas or the Gedevi and the Za seem to be the first socio-cultural groups to be established on that plateau. But it is, the Agasuvi-Aladaxonu, the last to be established there who succeed through tricks, matrimonial unions and violence in founding the danxome kingdom. The latter was to extend later beyond the confines of its geographical cradle. The controle of that area is ensured from Abomey the capital city by Agasuvi dynasty that associates the Wemenu to that power through the different responsabilities conferred upon them. The Yorubas and Za are systematically deprived of power
