En savoir plus sur le livre

Focusing on the themes of revenge and restitution, this book explores how communities can manage violent conflicts through compensation. It highlights practices such as wealth disbursement, oath-taking, sacrifice, and formal apologies, particularly referencing the Highlands of Papua New Guinea and drawing comparisons with tribal societies in Africa and Pakistan. By examining the interplay between vengeance and compensation during peace-making, it offers innovative insights that could aid various conflict-affected communities globally.
