The Cambridge History of the Pacific Ocean
Volume II of The Cambridge History of the Pacific Ocean focuses on the latest era of Pacific history, examining the period from 1800 to the present day. This volume discusses advances and emerging trends in the historiography of the colonial era, before outlining the main themes of the twentieth century when the idea of a Pacific-centred century emerged. It concludes by exploring how history and the past inform preparations for the emerging chall…
The Cambridge History of the Pacific Ocean
Volume I of The Cambridge History of the Pacific Ocean provides a wide-ranging survey of Pacific history to 1800. It focuses on varied concepts of the Pacific environment and its impact on human history, as well as tracing the early exploration and colonization of the Pacific, the evolution of Indigenous maritime cultures after colonization, and the disruptive arrival of Europeans. Bringing together a diversity of subjects and viewpoints, this vo…

Peoples of the Pacific
The People of the Sea
Oceania is characterized by thousands of islands and archipelagoes amidst the vast expanse of the Pacific. Although it is one of the few truly oceanic habitats occupied permanently by humankind, surprisingly little research has been done on the maritime dimension of Pacific history. The People of the Sea attempts to fill this gap by combining neglected historical and scientific material to provide the first synthetic study of ocean-people interac…
The value of community-based tourism in Banteay Chhmar, Cambodia
In the era of mass tourism, phenomena such as sustainable tourism, \nresponsible tourism, rural tourism, eco-tourism, pro-poor tourism and \ncommunity-based tourism are now increasingly under the research \nmicroscope. If established and managed correctly, these alternative \nforms of tourism have the potential to contribute towards sustainable \ncommunity development and provide visitors with unique experiences. \nFew scholars have qualitatively…
The Chinese Pacifics
This survey reviews the growing role and presence of China in the Island Pacific. As the late Professor Ron Crocombe remarked, in the Pacific a major transition is under way from a range of European to Asian influences. Many Western observers have viewed this rise of Asian, and specifically Chinese, influence with alarm, but Crocombe saw it as offering Pacific Islanders new opportunities. This paper first analyses the diversity that can be masked…
China in Oceania
China in Oceania: reshaping the Pacific?." The Journal of Pacific History, 48(2), pp. 231–232
Introduction
This chapter introduces some of the more influential academic studies on Chinese investment abroad, including the existing quantitative literature on Chinese outbound direct invesfinent (ODI). It introduces a case study from Australia involving state-owned mining conglomerate Chinalco, and the fallout from its failed bid for a share in Rio Tinto. The study confounds many of the stereotypes about the behaviour of the Chinese central state. The cha…

The People of the Sea
Warfare and State Formation in Hawaii
Between 1782 and 1812, Kamehameha I conquered and unified the Hawaiian Islands. This process was unprecedented in Hawaii and coincided with increasing European contact, prompting many to attribute his success to European weapons and ideas. Those studying chiefly power in pre-unification Hawaii emphasise economic and ideological factors and fail to examine coercive capabilities in any detail, as well as the specifics of time and place. The approac…
Cultural Divisions and Island Environments since the Time of Dumont d'Urville
Pacific Islanders as Melanesians, Micronesians or Polynesians by the 1980s, although no clear alternative had emerged.This sentiment was voiced by scholars in a number of disciplines involved in the study of Pacific cultures. 1 The 19th-century French explorer J.-S.-C.Dumont d'Urville synthesised the terms Melanesia, Micronesia and Polynesia.Dumont d'Urville's association of four cultural regions (including Malaysia) with two racial types had a p…
Connected by the Sea
Few Pacific historians examine island communities as part of wider spheres of indigenous interaction. Indigenous relations with Europeans receive the lion's share of attention, while ongoing and new interactions between local communities tend to be neglected. As a result, European influence is perhaps exaggerated. This paper examines the Western Caroline Islands in the century prior to the imposition of modern colonial rule. It argues that the hi…
