Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 561-576 pages with cited references. Quarto (11" x 8 1/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Current Anthropology Volume 20, Number 3 complete issue. First edition. This paper describes the extent to which at this time anthropology in Papua New Guinea, defined as studies of traditional cultures and societies and of changing social structures, is beginning to be conducted by Papua New Guineans. From a growing literature the writer selects the work of 12 Papua New Guineans for detailed discussion. They are selected because their approach is more analytical than that of many other writers and because in various ways they seem to offer a distinctively indigenous perspective in Papua New Guinean anthropology. Discussion of the work of these 12 writers is organized in terms of a number of themes. Each theme appears in the work of several if not most writers, but there are some points at which a writer is himself inconsistent and other points at which different writers disagree. The first theme is the attack on foreign research. The criticism is on a number of grounds. It relates to the behavior of overseas researchers in the field, the emphases of their work, and their underlying assumptions and attitudes. The second theme is a plea for insider research, for research conducted in the small rural communities of origin of the writers concerned. The third theme is an emphasis on cultural unity rather than diversity in the study of traditional cultures in Papua New Guinea. This is related to desires for national unity, national identity, and Melanesian forms of development. The fourth theme is a peculiarly Papua New Guinean view of social change that emphasizes the role of nationals and the significance of their institutions in accounts of postcontact social change. The fifth theme is an interest in contemporary as opposed to traditional or preserved cultural forms, especially insofar as contemporary culture is a manipulable factor anthropologist to be at the least relevant to contemporary issues and at the most politically active (in whatever direction) in his field of interest. The writer considers the fourth, fifth, and sixth themes likely to be of continuing significance in the development of Papua New Guinean anthropology.
