Unequal Lives deals with the particular dilemmas of inequality in the Western Pacific. The authors focus on four dimensions of inequality: the familiar triad of gender, race and class, and the often-neglected dimension of generation. Grounded in meticulous long-term ethnographic enquiry and deep awareness of the historical contingency of these configurations of inequality, this volume illustrates the multidimensional, multiscale and epistemic nature of contemporary inequality. This collection is a major contribution to academic and political debates about the perverse effects of inequality, which now ranks among the greatest challenges of our time. The inspiration for this volume derives from the breadth and depth of Martha Macintyre's remarkable scholarship. The contributors celebrate Macintyre?s groundbreaking work, which exemplifies the explanatory power, ethical force and pragmatism that ensures the relevance of anthropological research to the lives of others and to understanding the global condition. 410 0$aPacific 606 $aAustralasian & Pacific history$2bicssc 606 $aSocial issues & processes$2bicssc 606 $aEthical issues & debates$2bicssc 606 $aSocial groups$2bicssc 606 $aSocial & cultural anthropology, ethnography$2bicssc 607 $aPacific Area$xSocial conditions$y21st century 607 $aPacific Area$xSocial life and customs 610 $aInequality 610 $aMartha Macintyre 610 $aMelanesia 610 $aGender 610 $aRace 610 $aClass 610 $aWestern Pacific 615 7$aAustralasian & Pacific history 615 7$aSocial issues & processes 615 7$aEthical issues & debates 615 7$aSocial groups 615 7$aSocial & cultural anthropology, ethnography 700 $aBainton$b Nicholas A$0848686 701 $aMcDougall$b Debra$0848687 701 $aAlexeyeff$b Kalissa$0848688 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910440649203321 996 $aUnequal Lives$91895488 997 $aUNINA
