Description

The Anthropology of Morality in Melanesia and Beyond explores how Melanesian communities navigate moral dilemmas and ethical challenges through detailed ethnographic study. Building on Kenelm Burridge's foundational work, this Routledge volume examines public situations and cultural figures such as big men and sorcerers that reveal key ethical contradictions within moral communities. The book combines classical anthropological concerns with contemporary theoretical perspectives, offering richly textured fieldwork analysis and scholarly reviews that illuminate the relationship between indigenous values and broader social practices. Ideal for researchers, students, and scholars of cultural anthropology, this work advances understanding of how morality functions across different social contexts and communities in the Indo-Pacific region.
