    • However, the stress on the individual's self-management in all this is consonant with the withdrawal of the welfare state in another way, as Edwards argues. While poverty is a major factor in what people can do, workers perceive problems to lie in their client's personal histories and disposition. It is not just lack of money which is 'the problem' but not knowing how to manage it. Improvement in the 1980s idiom can only be improvement in management skills. One Health Visitor: 'Poverty, poor housing, lack of education - when I use the word education, I mean in respect to bringing up a family, cooking, budgeting, child development. Lack of knowledge really.' As Edwards argues, this depoliticises the social conditions in which families find themselves.

Peevay's brother is taken off and educated, to be protected from the savagery of his upbringing, one of the impetuses of missions in Australia at the time. In the story that means that on his return he is in turn rejected by his mother, and this (unexpected) rejection leads him to suicide.

The father, who was killed by police, Koidam Willingal, was a Tangilka man; he was said to have been the bodyguard of a wanted man, a fact disputed by his kin. The aggrieved relatives came from his mother's clan in Konumbuka.

    • With a skull in the netbag: Prescriptive marriage and matrilateral relations in the new guinea highlands
    • With Peevay's mother's bagged bones in mind (he remarked on how inappropriately light the bag that contained his mother seemed), I note that the practice is called in Minj giving 'a skull in a netbag' (Michael O'Hanlon and Linda Frankland, 'With a Skull in the Netbag: Prescriptive Marriage and Matrilateral Relations in the New Guinea Highlands', Oceania, no. 56, 1986, pp. 181-98)

    • a reference to the male strength (bones) that the mother carries within her. When a clan sends out its women in marriage, it contributes to the prosperity of other clans; through these offshoots, maternal kin expand their own spheres of influence. Injury to these progeny is injury to something of theirs. In local idiom, the deceased's 'bones' or 'head', male wealth as appropriately given by the patriclan, should be sent back by the paternal clan to the maternal clan which had in its lifetime overseen his or her welfare (Dr John Muke, 'In the matter of an application under Section 57 of the Constitution: application by Individual and Community Rights Forum Inc. (ICRAF) in re: Miriam Willingal', National Court of Justice, Papua New Guinea Law Reports, Port Moresby, 1997, p. 132). When kin seek, as they sometimes did, an alternative to or augmentation of other forms of payment by requesting that a granddaughter of the woman be returned, they talked of returning the 'head' or 'skull' in a 'netbag', that is, in the form of a woman.

    • The metaphors that Wahgi (Minj) people use of body payments draw these various aspects together into one context. This referred to the strength or wealth (bones) of a woman's progeny in and within the form of another woman (the netbag), as Muke, Papua New Guinea Law Reports, p. 132

    • and O'Hanlon and Frankland, 'With a Skull in the Netbag', describe. The bones and the bag are reversed: here it is the mother who envelops the past and future strength of the males she will bear, the bones at once signifying male strength and the wealth that flows against it. People's 'bones' (omblom) strengthen their paternal kin, and these payments are offered in return for that strength. In the past, making such payments was once a regular part of clan intermarriage but did not necessarily accompany death compensation. 'Head pay' was the general name given to gifts that went to the mother's kin at death.

    • note
    • It is worth noting that the Papua New Guinea constitution provides for the recognition of customary law (which is what these compensation practices would have been perceived as) to the extent that it conflicts neither with constitutional law nor with general principles of humanity. Indeed, the judge paid considerable attention to unravelling the intricate background to the compensation settlement, and warned about quick judgements from outside bodies-including the 'modern courts'.

    • One reading of her affidavit (Papua New Guinea Law Reports, p. 141) is that it was the very fact that no one had been named as her future spouse, which made her feel she was being 'used' simply as a form of payment.

    • But are 'marriageable men' the social analogue of 'marriageable women'? In the past, the circumstances of 'initiable men' afforded a closer parallel. (It should be noted that her kin claimed that the obligation to provide a spouse for a particular clan was different from forcing a girl onto a marriage partner, and that if she did not care for anyone, then a later marriage by someone else could always be counted retrospectively in lieu.)
