{"product_id":"fame-of-gawa","title":"Fame of Gawa","description":"This new edition of the critically acclaimed \u003ci\u003eThe Fame of Gawa\u003c\/i\u003e-originally published in 1986-makes available for the first time this important work in paperback.  \u003ci\u003eThe Fame of Gawa\u003c\/i\u003e is concerned with fundamental practices of value creation on Gawa, a small island off the southeast coast of mainland Papua New Guinea, the inhabitants of which participate in the long-distance kula shell exchange ring.  Integrating various aspects of the study of society and culture--including the sociocultural construction of space and time, self-other relations and the body, and moral and political problems of hierarchy and equality-Nancy D. Munn shows that it is through achieving fame in the wider inter-island world that the Gawan community asserts its own internal viablity.","brand":"Duke University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54259544031576,"sku":"9780822312703","price":27.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780822312703.jpg?v=1781005548","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/fame-of-gawa","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
