Guidelines for Researchers in the Pacific

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  07 March 2019

Extract

In the late 1960s and early 1970s many Pacific nations became independent or self-governing. In seeking an expression for their new nationalism, Pacific peoples began to re-examine their cultural and historical heritage. Since that time, we have seen what is now referred to as a 'cultural revival' in the Pacific and this has emerged gradually alongside developments in national politics and government. Following this, the resurgence of research interest in Pacific cultures has led, in turn, to the formulation of policies by Pacific governments in order to regulate research undertaken in Pacific countries by outsiders.
