Scope and Contents
Summary
The third book in a compelling new series that offers leading international thinking on conflict and peace-building. In many societies, particularly in the highlands of Papua New Guinea, peace and violence are linked intrinsically because peace-making follows on the principle of compensation for killings, as a means of averting acts of revenge.
