Inalienable Possessions
This book tests anthropology's traditional assumptions about kinship, economics, power, and gender in an exciting challenge to accepted theories of reciprocity and marriage exchange. Focusing on Oceania societies from Polynesia to Papua New Guinea and including Australian Aborigine groups, it investigates the category of possessions that must not be given, or, if they are circulated, must return finally to the giver. Reciprocity, the book says, i…

Inalienable Wealth
This essay departs from traditional anthropological views of exchange by focusing on the importance of wealth objects kept out of circulation by their owners. I examine the implications of such wealth through an analysis of New Zealand Maori valued objects, notably, woven cloaks and nephrite weapons and ornaments. Drawing on Marcel Mauss's notions of inalienable wealth, I enter the debates surrounding the meaning of the Maori hau, the spirit embe…

Reproduction
An overemphasis on equivalences in exchange procedures forces us to continue to depend upon theories and models based on "norms of reciprocity." This "reciprocity approach" disregards the significance of time and analyzes reciprocal equivalences for what, in fact, may be a process of replacement. Significant wealth objects, originally given in exchange, may be reclaimed years or generations later and in this way the replacement process gives an e…

Plus précieux que l'or
Cet essai est la suite et le résultat de mes expériences de terrain dans un des lieux saints de l'anthropologie, les îles Trobriand, et de ma découverte, quasi accidentelle, de l'importance des femmes dans cette société. L'étude des relations entre hommes et femmes m'a conduit à réviser plusieurs des postulats fondamentaux formulés initialement par Malinovski sur la société des Trobriand. Il en est résulté plus qu'une réévaluation de l'ethnograph…
