Abstract

Starting from the question whether our daily and political usage of the term revenge really hits or rather obscures the core of the problem (I), the paper outlines a small phenomenology of the (blood) revenge of segmentary societies (II), to interpret vengeance in a second step theoretically as the negative of gift exchange as a reciprocal relationship of respect (III). The last section discusses the perverting effects of a failing institutionalizing of violence on archaic revenge (IV).
