Description: This report presents the results of intensive fieldwork which I have undertaken in the Ciskei and Transkei since 1961, with the generous support and co-operation of the Human Sciences Research Council (formerly National Council for Social Research), in conjunction with the Institute of Social and Economic Research at Rhodes University. The report has been divided into Part I, on the Red Xhosa, and Part II, on 'non-Red' and non-Xhosa peoples of the same region. The fieldwork was undertaken mainly during my academic vacation I spent many months altogether living in a caravan in the rural locations of Tshabo, Khalana, Shixini and Mabaleni, observing Red Xhosa youth activities at first hand. Later, the fieldwork for Part II was carried on largely by my assistants (who by then were well experienced), under my close supervision.
