What ever happened to the Papua New Guinea Dictionary of Contemporary Biography
The 1980s were both troubling and exciting years for PNG and Papua New Guineans, not to mention scholars looking back at them.Pleasant memories of independence from Australia were still fresh, yet cracks in the postcolonial nation-arguably only held together by a bandaid in the lead-up to 1975-had begun to reveal themselves.The nation may have been independent, but were its people decolonised?As the poet and scholar Vincent Warakai evocatively wr…

He Wished We Did Not Look So Thoroughly English
The Compagnie française des Phosphates de l’Océanie mined phosphate rock on Makatea, a raised coral atoll in the Établissements français de l’Océanie (now French Polynesia) from 1908 to 1966. Despite its name, the company received critical early support from the more experienced Englishman John T. Arundel and his Pacific Phosphate Company. Having formed an informal entente cordiale to overcome rival challengers and local resistance from Marau Ta‘…

In doing so, this article sheds new light on the well-trodden histories of interwar resistance in Sāmoa (the Mau) and post-World War II agitation…

In addition to a principled adoption of militant socialism, he stood apart from the rest of the House of Representatives due to his pronounced interest in Samoan affairs. This interest was so acute that one of his Labour colleagues, John A. Lee, remarked that he possessed a ‘Samoan complex…
