Abstract:
Introduction -- Objects, Exchange, Anthropology -- The Permutations of Debt: Exchange Systems in the Pacific -- The Indigenous Appropriation of European Things -- The European Appropriation of Indigenous Things -- The Discovery of the Gift: Exchange and Identity in the Contemporary Pacific.
Abstract:
The author takes up issues central to modern anthropology. In so doing he raises doubts about any simple "us / them" dichotomy between Westerners and Pacific Islanders, challenging the preoccupation of anthropology with cultural differences by stressing the shared history of colonial entanglement
