| Research Abstract |
After the end of 6 years' "Ethnic Tension" between Guadalcanal and Malaita islanders in Solomon Islands, the life in suburban villages, which has been backward to subsistence economy during the tension, rapidly re-modernized and involved in market economy. In the present study, based on biannual surveys on health status, dietary habits and lifestyle of people in one such village, we clarified in which aspects such rapid change tended to appear and which aspects tended to be unchangeable, and we suggested the health transition model in the Solomon Islands.
