Accepted Paper:

Promises and prevarications  
Rosita Henry (James Cook University)

Paper short abstract:

In my contribution I will discuss value dissonances that can arise in everyday communication in the context of fieldwork. Drawing on my fieldwork experiences in the Western Highlands of PNG and in North Queensland, I will focus on what it means ‘to promise’ something, and on the complexities of meeting promissory expectations and obligations.
