Authenticity of the Congolese Traditional Law in Bandundu Province (Le Munsong Tribe) is flawless. Oral traditions are based on the integrity, justice, and honoring of their "Nzambi-Mpungu," (The Great Being). Impunity is an unknown fact to African traditional judges. In this regard, a trial verdict is to be announced fairly due to the fear of their "Nzambi-Mpungu," who could strike on them out of anger, should they act inappropriately. This actually shows the difference between contemporary and traditional law in the Bantu/Congolese society.

Ethnic American Food Today introduces readers to the myriad ethnic food cultures in the U.S. today. Entries are organized alphabetically by nation and present the background and history of each food culture along with explorations of the place of that food in mainstream American society today. Many of the entries draw upon ethnographic research and personal experience, giving insights into the meanings of various ethnic food traditions as well as into what, how, and why people of different ethnicities are actually eating today. The entries look at foodways—the network of activities surrounding food itself—as well as the beliefs and aesthetics surrounding that food, and the changes that have occurred over time and place. They also address stereotypes of that food culture and the culture’s influence on American eating habits and menus, describing foodways practices in both private and public contexts, such as restaurants, groceries, social organizations, and the contemporary world of culinary arts. Recipes of representative or iconic dishes are included. This timely two-volume encyclopedia addresses the complexity—and richness—of both ethnicity and food in America today.
