The comparative typological classification of African witchcraft and societies proposed by Mary Douglas will be revisited. This paper also reconsiders the issue on witchcraft and social equalization,therefore points out in more general terms certain risks and violence that are derived from strict beliefs about "justice" related to "morality". Through these descriptions and analyses, I would like to suggest one of the approaches which enable us to translate and interpret African witchcraft as the something common to all human societies in present-day world, while reevaluating certain advantages of social functionalistic interpretations which have been routinely criticized by some recent anthropological discourses.}, pages = {69--91}, title = {アフリカにおける「妖術告白」をめぐって - クロス・リヴァー諸社会の事例から -}, volume = {53}, year = {2007} }
