Although Fiji held a successful election in September 2014, the country still faces problems related to the completion of its democratic transition following its emergence from a difficult period of regional and international isolation. Fiji continues to find itself pushing against the political order in the South Pacific, while maintaining a balance between established powers like Australia and New Zealand, and new partners including China. The case of Fiji as a small state which, by virtue of its perceived ‘centrality’ in the region, can shape diplomacy and regime development on a larger scale, is examined
