@Udadisi How about the main point of the blog? -
@Calestous They are connected given that the main point is the battle between 'tradition' and innovation,#Hobsbawm is employed as a referee -
@Udadisi He pioneered important fields of scholarship. You're missing his relevance to contemporary debates. -
@Calestous I'm just reading between the lines-it's an extension of your argument "Those seeking to maintain the status quo" i.e. "tradition" -
@Udadisi Read the lines themselves. Even better his own work. -
@Calestous Haya prof, sasa hutaki mada/makala ichambuliwe?Isomwe tu bila uchambuzi?Anyway,that is my reading of it,you don't have to buy it. -
@Udadisi You're reading it upside down with preconceptions. Better read EJH himself. I provided the links.
