  abstract = {{M}idway in the the {S}enegal {R}iver {V}alley, most {H}aalpulaar villages are headed by chiefs chosen, in some cases for several centuries now, from within one or two families by certain other lineages. {V}illage and territory chiefs (respectively jom wuro and jom leydi) are not the only local office-holders. {O}ther "noble" families belonging to four ethnic status groups provide persons for other villages office (imam at the mosque, tax-collector, chief of fishermen) whose holders may be appointed, elected or chosen as a function of seniority. {P}ermutations make this pluralistic society work : no status group dominates all domains. {T}he anthropological model of the city-state (in the sense of the {A}ncient {G}reek polis) can help explain the political ingenuity if which the {H}aalpulaar have proven so capable.
