The Fijian Colonial Experience
Author: Timothy J. MacNaught
Publisher: ANU Press
ISBN: 1921934360
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
Indigenous Fijians were singularly fortunate in having a colonial administration that halted the alienation of communally owned land to foreign settlers and that, almost for a century, administered their affairs in their own language and through culturally congenial authority structures and institutions. From the outset, the Fijian Administration was criticised as paternalistic and stifling of individualism. But for all its problems it sustained, at least until World War II, a vigorously autonomous and peaceful social and political world in quite affluent subsistence — underpinning the celebrated exuberance of the culture exploited by the travel industry ever since.

Entangled Objects
Author: Nicholas Thomas
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 9780674044326
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
Entangled Objects threatens to dislodge the cornerstone of Western anthropology by rendering permanently problematic the idea of reciprocity. All traffic, and commerce, whether economic or intellectual, between Western anthropologists and the rest of the world, is predicated upon the possibility of establishing reciprocal relations between the West and the indigenous peoples it has colonized for centuries.
