Abandoned Narcotic

- Kava and Cultural Instability in Melanesia

af Ron Brunton

indgår i Cambridge Studies in Social and Cultural Anthropology serien

Abandoned Narcotic af Ron Brunton
Bag om Abandoned Narcotic

Ron Brunton revives a problem posed by the great anthropologist W. H. R. Rivers in History of Melanesian Society (1914): how to explain the strange geographical distribution of kava, a narcotic drink once widely consumed by south-west Pacific islanders. He suggests that kava's abandonment can best be explained in terms of its association with unstable religious cults.
