Interviews on the History of Ethnographic Description (Transcripts)
This collection of interviews provides an overall image of the setting for ethnographic descriptions of Papua New Guinea (PNG) between 1945 and 1975. Between 1993 and 1996, the editor of this collection conducted a series of thirty-four interviews related to the interviewees’ involvement in describing the indigenous population of PNG, during the last decades of Australian colonial rule over the area. The objective of this collection is to make the implicit explicit: It describes how ethnographic data regarding PNG were collected, interpreted and analyzed between 1945 and 1975.
