In the Absence of the Gift: New Forms of Value and Personhood in a Papua New Guinea Community - Pacific Perspectives: Studies of the European Society for Oceanists

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.
