dc.description.abstractThis chapter focuses on the three major types of associations among the Yorùbá ethnic group of Nigeria: cultural, cooperative, and religious associations.

An association is an organized group of persons associated together for religious, benevolent, cultural, scientific, political, patriotic, or other purposes. In this chapter, the sociological perspective is appropriate and germane.en_US
