For philosophers, the gift fascinates because it demands disinterested generosity. Yet anthropology offers another view. Reciprocity, rather than disinterestedness, HÃ naff shows, is central to ceremonial giving, alliance, and the social bond. From actual gift practices, HÃ naff develops an original and profound theory of symbolism, the social, and the relationship between self and other.
