Although a trend to the lifestyle of the Western world can be found everywhere on the islands, traditional customs, a gendered division of labour and subsistence techniques prevail. Kerstin Werle carried out her research according to classical anthropological methods, supplementing the available specialist literature on the widespread Micronesian atolls with a valuable overview. Her book shows how the ideal of an old and wise woman, contained in the cultural symbol lavalava, is faced with a young society. Due to the extremely limited space on the small atolls, individual plots of land have become historically, culturally and emotionally significant places, all of which have been ascribed their own individual character. With the help of these personalized places, people on Lamotrek pursue local politics. | 出版日期 | Book 2014 | 关键词 | Amerikanisierung; Katholizismus; Landrechte; Lavalava; Mikronesien | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-658-05832-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-658-05831-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-658-05832-6 | copyright | Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden 2014 |
