Samoan Village Economy
Author: Brian Albert LockwoodPublisher: Melbourne, Oxford U. P
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
"This book describes the extent to which four village communities have participated in the market sector introduced by the Europeans ; the ways in which they have responded to the various incentives provided by the trade stores ; the manner in which they have accommodated an increasing need for money. The traditional and trade sectors of the village economies are described, measured and related to the levels of incentive for participation in the market sector offered in each vilage. The Samoans adopted a dual economy in which the old subsistence-based socially motivated system continues to dominate the new market system of the foreigners."--Jacket
The Making of Modern Samoa
Author: Malama MeleiseaPublisher: [email protected]
ISBN: 9789820200319
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
"Since independence in January 1962, several constitutional court cases have exposed the dilemma which the Western Samoa Government is facing balancing fa'a Samoa (Samoan customs and traditions) with Western legal systems of authority. This book traces the clash between Samoan and Western notions of government and law from the 1830s to the 1980s emphasizing the hitherto neglected interpretation of events from a Samoan perspective. As a critical reinterpretation of the literature on Western Samoa, drawing on oral sources and material from the archives of the Land and Titles Court of Western Samoa, the book provides important new insights into pre-colonial regimes, racial issues and the contemporary political problems of the independent state of Western Samoa."--Back cover.
