Offers a theoretical perspective on the study of social change in the Pacific islands, covering: Hawaii, French Polynesia, American and Western Samoa, Tonga, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea, Fiji, Kiribati, the Marshall and Caroline islands, Guam and the northern Marianas islands.
First published in 1992. The Pacific Ocean is the largest geographical feature on the face of the earth, covering about one third of its entire surface. Occupying part of that large expanse are the far-flung islands of the Pacific. As the papers of this volume clearly indicate, the post-world war II era and decolonization have brought unprecedented change, and the Pacific is now experiencing problems that were formerly associated with other Third World nations. Most Pacific countries have rapidly expanding populations, and over half of all Pacific Islanders are now in their teenage years or younger. Education and modern communications have served to increase aspirations and attracted by hopes of employment and the distractions of urban life, islanders are gravitating to urban centers.
