 | Carved Flesh / Cast Selves : Gendered Symbols and Social Practices All the papers in this volume deal with the central theme of gender. The social contexts they examine range widely from Melanesia and Southeast Asia to Africa, Europe and America; yet in each case of these very diverse cases the concern is to analyse the ways in which gender is constructed.
