Bücher von James Leach

What constitutes a resource, and how do people make claims on them? Contributions from social anthropology and law in this major research project offer conceptual clarification in the context of material, intellectual, and cultural resources in Papua, New Guinea. (Anthropology)

What is creative in kinship? How are people connected to places? James Leach answers these questions by examining the making of people and the emergence of places in a particular context. He develops a powerful idea: the formulation of "creativity" as an ongoing and integral part of kinship as environmental engagement.
