More about the book
The book explores the interactions between Melanesian societies and European explorers, traders, and missionaries over two centuries. It delves into the perceptions of New Ireland's inhabitants and examines the impact of long-standing European stereotypes on these encounters. Through anthropological history and original fieldwork, the authors uncover how New Irelanders understood their experiences with Europeans, highlighting the complexities of power dynamics and the eventual transformations brought by capitalism and colonialism in their society.
