Overview
Bringing together some of the most prominent scholars working in the anthropology of morality, this volume examines how Melanesians experience and deal with moral dilemmas and challenges. While returning to some classical concerns, the book opens new territory with studies exploring the interface between values associated with indigenous village life and ethical orientations associated with Christianity, the state, the marketplace, and other facets of 'modernity'.
