Rethinks remittance motivations among work migrants by focusing on notions of sharing. An elaborate focus on practices of sharing and demand sharing in a Melanesian context. Focuses on those 'development projects' people initiate and conduct themselves in a country otherwise often subject to externally initiated (sometimes imposed) development. One of the few monograph length publications in recent years taking on the notion of value and the book provides an ethnographically driven understanding of value.

Paperback. Zustand: New. By adopting ideas like "development," members of a Papua New Guinean community find themselves continuously negotiating what can be expected of a relative or a community member. Nearly half the people born on the remote Mbuke Islands become teachers, businessmen, or bureaucrats in urban centers, while those who stay at home ask migrant relatives "What about me?" This detailed ethnography sheds light on remittance motivations and documents how terms like "community" can be useful in places otherwise permeated by kinship. As the state withdraws, Mbuke people explore what social ends might be reached through involvement with the cash economy. Artikel-Nr. LU-9781789208061
