Question

Who are tribal people

Answer 1

In anthropology, a tribe is a human social group. Exact definitions of what constitutes a tribe vary among anthropologists, and the term is itself considered controversial in academic circles in part due to its association with colonialism. In general use, the term may refer to people perceived by a population to be primitive and may have negative connotation…

Answer 2

Heya.......

Here is your answer.....

Everybody, basically.

We all have the “tribal” impulse hard-wired into our human psychology.

“Tribalism,” in theory, is simply the tendency we have to congregate in groups, and accordingly to categorize fellow humans as either part of our “in” group, or as “outsiders,” whom we treat differently than our fellow “members of the tribe.”

And lest we be distracted by popular conceptions of “tribal” people as those who live in pre-industrial societies and wear odd indigenous clothing and engage in “exotic” rituals and such, I do mean everybody.

The pattern of seating at high school cafeteria tables, and the formation of popularity cliques as well as the division into “jocks,” “nerds,” “socialites,” “metalheads,” “greasers,” “hip-hoppers,” etc., is tribal.

The affection of sports fans for “their” team is tribal.

The sense of community (or animosity) that adherents of a religion feel toward their co-religionists (or members of other religions) is tribal. And I don’t just mean, say, Christians versus Muslims; I mean Methodists versus Presbyterians, too.

The alliances, enemies, and backstabbing that go on in the average corporate, academic, or governmental working environment, are also tribal in nature.

That said, if we are using “tribal” as a label for a level of social organization as applied to a whole society, it refers to those world societies who have not developed anything more complex than tribal affiliation, to govern their society. In such a society, there is no over-arching sense of belonging to a pluralistic community with shared interests and values, but rather, just tribe against tribe.

And, again, lest anyone think this label only applies in the “ooga-booga” parts of the world, this kind of fractured society run by tribalist principles is a pretty close description of the identity politics which have been seeping into, and poisoning, US-style representative democracy in a united republic, for some decades now. When the only political capital is based on “my tribe” versus “your tribe,” however “tribe” is defined, everybody loses.
