ABSTRACTThis essay approaches ethnic process through a description and analysis of the struggle to build a Maorimaraeat The University of Auckland, New Zealand. One goal is simply to document certain events 1976–1988. This specific history is then examined in terms of the artworks of themarae, and the particular ways in which stuggles to control these works became focused on the issue of authentic Maori culture. Resistance and opportunism among university authorities, uses of the relationship between Maori culture and academic culture, and the ambiguous relationship between tribal affiliations and more mundane political economic interests are briefly examined. A closer look is then taken at struggles to control the bearing oftapu, or taboo restrictions, on the artworks. A central theoretical consideration is the relationship of these struggles over meaning to political economic interests, especially efforts to control the production and work processes of the artworks and thus the meanings, values and opportunities arising from the

摘要:

ABSTRACTTo understand more fully contemporary forms of colonialism in PNG I argue we need to move our analysis beyond local narratives of encounters with Europeans to include narratives about non‐Europeans. Through a consideration of Kamula accounts of Europeans, especially missionaries, and Chinese I show how the Kamula model two quite different experiences of colonialism. In one, local people are able to transform Europeans into analogues of themselves and in the other, currently more associated with the Chinese, the emphasis is on difference, rather than on commonalities. These interrelated representations of two distinct kinds of colonialists are, in part, complex signifiers of national, and especially local, concerns about ‘development’ based on logging. I outline how these accounts of Europeans and Chinese express the different forms of power which are currently deployed to transform space in the Western Province. I conclude by speculating that to understand these powers adequately we may need to follow Latour and Callon and extend our analysis of colonialism to include non‐human

摘要:

ABSTRACTThe process of modernisation coupled with division of labour and leisure have had an enormous impact on tribal people. This group of people have responded to the bewildering environment with the consolidation of their existing network on ethnic and tribal solidarity. This paper looks at one group of people, the Enga people of Papua New Guinea (PNG) while they sought employment in the now abandoned Bougainville copper mine. The paper explains that the Enga workers maintained their own identity through utilisation of leisure activities amid the diverse presence of other workers in the mining town. It concludes that if ethnic and tribal solidarity were to be superseded by other forms of social alliance, would the latter eventually perform the role of protecting, recruiting, and reciprocating not only in Bougainville but in other PNG town settings? These are some of the questions that need to be addressed in the context of socioeconomic development and change in PNG and in other similiar developing countries.
