Writing of Ranongga Island, the author tracks engagements with strangers across many realms of life?pre-colonial warfare, Christian conversion, logging and conservation, even post-conflict state building. She describes startling reversals in which strangers become attached to local places, even as kinspeople are estranged from one another and from their homes. Against stereotypes of rural insularity, she argues that a distinctive cosmopolitan openness to others is evident in the rural Solomons in times of war and peace. 410 0$aASAO studies in Pacific anthropology ;$vVolume 6. 606 $aLove$zSolomon Islands 606 $aViolence$zSolomon Islands 606 $aStrangers$zSolomon Islands 606 $aIntimacy (Psychology) 610 $achristian conversion. 610 $acivil conflict in solomon islands. 610 $aculturally diverse and politically fragmented communities. 610 $adistinctive cosmopolitan openness. 610 $aengagements with strangers across life. 610 $ahistorical and anthropological narrative. 610 $akinspeople estranged from one another. 610 $alogging and conservation. 610 $apost conflict state building. 610 $apre colonial warfare. 610 $asolomon islands. 610 $astereotypes of rural insularity. 610 $astrangers attach to local places. 610 $astudy of solomon islands. 610 $athoughtful. 615 0$aLove 615 0$aViolence 615 0$aStrangers 615 0$aIntimacy (Psychology) 676 $a306.099593 700 $aMcDougall$b Debra L.$0848687 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811667403321 996 $aEngaging with strangers$94096830 997 $aUNINA
