These fascinating social phenomena undoubtedly have ongoing relevance for ethnographies of Melanesia. In this collection of papers, we learn about the history of the concept itself as well as how contemporary movements articulate world views, political awareness, material desires and even criticism of the now globalized concept of cargo cult itself. The chapters offer remarkable stories of cult activities and interesting arguments about the entanglement of Western desire for both cargo and cults with these Melanesian visions of how to create a prosperous future for themselves.Kago, Kastom and KaljaHistoryAnthropologyMelanesiaPacificCargo CultsKastompolitical movementspolitical movementsCargo CultsPacificMelanesiaKastomHistoryAnthropologyMelanesiaPacificCargo CultsKastompolitical movementsAbong Marcellin1300123Biersack Aletta1300124Dalton Doug1300125Hermann Elfriede938653Jolly Margaret801599Lindstrom Lamont674148Macintyre Martha1300126Tabani Marc1300127Abong Marcellin1300123Tabani Marc1300127FR-FrMaCLEBOOK9910275048903321Kago, Kastom and Kalja: The Study of Indigenous Movements in Melanesia Today3025419UNINA
