The Culture Wars Within: an Examination of Marriage in the Context of Culture Conflict
Stella Nwokeji
This book addresses the impact of the conflict between the host (American) culture and the heritage (African) culture on marriages and relationships among immigrants, particulaly the Igbo of sutheastern Nigeria living in the United States. One such impact is rising incidence of domestic violence and failed marriages. Broadly speaking, the book addresses the influence of culture on relationships and how immigrants can enjoy their relationships, knowing what impact that their cultures of origin make on such relationships. A large part of the book is devoted to discussing what works in Igbo (African) marriages in the Diaspora. It is a book that has something for everyone, given the large amount of time devoted to discussing Igbo culture.
