  • Missing or Misdiagnosed? General Paralysis of the Insane, Yaws, and Syphilis in Fiji, 1884–1940

    Jacqueline LeckieARTICLEJournal of Pacific History2020

    General Paralysis of the Insane (GPI) was a deadly disease, once common in Fiji’s lunatic asylum and, by the early 20th century, thought to be caused by syphilis.

    These youths were prepared to engage in senseless violence that brought little material gain. They were Maori while the direct victims were New Zealand Gujaratis; Navin who had emigrated to New Zealand at the age of ten years, Sanjay and Ceilla, his New Zealand born children, and their mother Joshna who had emigrated as a young bride to New Zealand. Many other Indians readily knew they could have been subjected to such a tragedy. Public sympathy …

PREAMBLE Jacqueline LeckieLabour and work is such an essential aspect of people's lives, yet in the Pacific, it has escaped attention as a focus of academic interest.

The neglect has bee…
