This book analyses how and why people in Mount Hagen have incorporated the state into their local megacycle. By analysing political competition at the local level where such nationally prominent leaders as Paias Wingti, Robert Lak, Michael Mel, and Paul Pora operate, this study facilitates understanding the behaviour of politicians who interact within and between two separate moral realms. It analyses how and why people in Hagen compete for prestige, power and influence through ceremonial exchange, group warfare, and compensation payment, elections, and business and enterprise.
Includes index and Bibliography: p. [394]-411.
