Shadows of Violence : Tahitian Riddles
Contemporary tahitian community values the avoidance of conflict and the refusal of aggression between people. When facing situations appearing to be of «political» order, this model can sometimes seem to invert itself without being replaced by an explicit counter- model. These two possible models are briefly replaced in an historical context and confronted to the historical pattern generally adopted by the Tahitians themselves. This paper examines in what way the avoidance model, the ethic of consensus and gentleness are developped in the education and socialization of children, according to the observations of the ethno- psychiatrist R. I. Levy. And how they appear in the semantic logics of the adult world when dealing with conflict and hierarchy. It then describes three situations involving physical aggression.
