| 520 | _a"What makes a Samoan villager buy a Chinese polypropylene mat rather than weave their own pandanus mat? When do Pacific emigrants stop sending money back home? Do villagers stop giving away fish when they get a refrigerator? These are the sorts of everyday issues that Cluny and La'avasa Macpherson examine in this accessible sociological study of the influence of globalisation on Pacific societies. Global culture has had a powerful impact on the flora and fauna, people, languages and cultures of the Pacific for many centuries. While earlier changes were largely controlled and managed by Pacific societies as new people, ideas and things were incorporated into traditional culture, the Macphersons suggest that recent changes are presenting a more profound challenge to tradition. Illustrating the effects of globalisation from the perspective of a typical Samoan village, the authors document the shift in Pacific societies from baskets to buckets, from chiefly and religious authority to a questioning democracy and from in-kind work to a cash economy."--Publisher's website. | ||
