What Gifts Engender: Social Relations and Politics in Mendi, Highland Papua New Guinea

This book reveals how considerable light can be shed on Mendi society, particularly on its political economy, by examining both the well-known ceremonial exchange festivals and the hitherto relatively little-studied everyday gift-giving practices.
