Inalienable Possessions by Annette B Weiner
Tests anthropology's traditional assumptions about kinship, economics, power, and gender. Focusing on Oceania societies from Polynesia to Papua New Guinea and including Australian Aborigine groups, this title investigates the category of possessions that must not be given or, if they are circulated, must return finally to the giver.
Annette B. Weiner is Kriser Distinguished Professor of Anthropology and Dean of the Graduate School of Arts and Science at New York University. She currently serves as President of the American Anthropological Association.
