Dinnen (research fellow, the Department of Political and Social Change, the Research School of Pacific and Asian Studies of the Australian National University) employs materialist, culturalist, and institutionalist perspectives in examining three case studies involving urban gangs, mining security, and election-related violence in Papua New Guinea, focusing on the interplay of Melanesian social practices with the disruptive forces of modernization. He draws on fieldwork, archival research, and current theoretical perspectives. There are 28 b&w photos from the 1980s and 1990s. Dinnen lived in Papua New Guinea between 1991 and 1994, where he was a senior researcher in the Crime Division of the National Research Institute. Annotation c.
