Gambling in Papua New Guinea, despite being completely absent prior
to the Colonial era, has come to supersede storytelling as the
region's main nighttime activity. Money Games is an ethnographic
monograph which reveals the contemporary importance of gambling in
urban Papua New Guinea. Rich ethnographic detail is coupled with
cross-cultural comparison which span the globe. This
anthropological study of everyday economics in Melanesia thereby
intersects with theories of money, value, play, informal economy,
social change and leadership.
