Research Abstract |
Most of the Oceanian societies, which had long been ruled by external colonial power, obtained political independence during the past thirty years while becoming part of the global economic and political system. In the process to promote development, the modernization and Westernization of their economy, society and culture has been progressed. The purpose of our project is to study the people's experiences of the colonialism in Oceania, together with its economic, social, and cultural influences on islands society, from a comparative anthropological perspective. We selected mainly nine countries as the subject for research and conducted fieldwork in the academic year 1996-98 : the Kingdom of Tonga, Samoa, Fiji, Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea, the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of Palau, Hawaii, and French Polynesia. Research focused primarily on : 1)the traditional land tenure system and colonial land reform policy in Micronesia ; 2)the educational proceses of traditional dancing and its performance as new social identity in Hawaii and Tahiti ; 3)the processes of christianization and colonization to pacify indigenous people in fiji ; 4)the discourses of anti-colonialism movement and the Samoan political leaders in the proceses of formation of the nation building ; 5)the relationship between traditional culture and colonization in Vanuatu and Melanesian societies ; 6)Tongan consciousness of subalternity in the colonial and post-colonial situation ; 7)the relationship between the native people and NGO on development activities in the colonial and present time.
