Focusing on interpersonal communication in East Greenland, the author explores how social relationships emphasize respect for personal autonomy. The concept of the self is presented as fluid and interconnected, transcending traditional boundaries of the body and humanity. This innovative approach contributes to anthropological studies of communication, making it relevant for scholars of the Arctic, anthropology, and human geography, as well as those examining the self within the broader humanities and social sciences.
