When sharing becomes shameful: atmospheres of class formation in Namibia Quand le partage devient honteux : ambiances de formation de classes en Namibie

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Anthropologists have long shown that asking for food in times of need is morally valued in rural Namibia.
