It consists of ten sections: an introduction, a conclusion and eight ethnographic chapters, each dealing with a separate way of life. I chose this presentation since I wanted to make clear the individuality of each of them. In the book I attempt to trace the changes in these ways of life as they were occurring just previous to the settlement of colonial outsiders. This attempt proved feasible since for seven of them first contact accounts are available.AnthropologySocial anthropologyWest Papuasocio-cultural changessweet potato revolutionmigrationsbigmanisation?wealth itemscowry revolutionexogenous culture changessocial anthropologyexogenous culture changesbigmanisation?socio-cultural changesWest Papuamigrationswealth itemscowry revolutionsweet potato revolutionSocial anthropologyAnthropologySocial anthropologyWest Papuasocio-cultural changessweet potato revolutionmigrationsbigmanisation?wealth itemscowry revolutionexogenous culture changessocial anthropologyPloeg Anton905062FR-FrMaCLEBOOK9910416502903321Pathways of change3040998UNINA
