I am interested in design of resource surveys, the development of long term data-sets and the strengthening of links between science and management. I also see an important role in better communicating science outcomes to the wider community.

  • Commercial Enterprise and the Trader's Dilemma on Wallis
    Between Gifts and Commodities: Commercial Enterprise and the Trader’s Dilemma on Wallis (‘Uvea) Paul van der Grijp Toa abandoned all forms of gardening, obtained a loan, and built a big shed to house six thousand infant chickens flown in from New Zealand. The chickens grew large and lovely, and Toa’s fame spread. Everyone knew he had six thousand chickens and everyone wanted to taste them. A well-bred tikong gives generously to his relatives and neighbours, especially one with thousands of earthly goods. But . Toa aimed to become a Modern Busi- nessman, forgetting that in Tiko if you give less you will lose more and if you give nothing you will lose all. epeli hau‘ofa, the tower of babel Recently, the model of the trader’s dilemma was developed as an ana- lytical perspective and applied to Southeast Asia. The present paper seeks to apply this model in Western Polynesia, where many Islanders, after earning wages in Australia, New Zealand, the United States, or New Cale- donia, return to open a small shop in their home village. Usually, after one or two years of generous sharing, such enterprises have to close down. I analyze this phenomenon through case studies of successful indigenous entrepreneurs on Wallis (‘Uvea), with special attention to strategies they have used to cope with this dilemma. The Paradigm of the Trader’s Dilemma The trader’s dilemma is the quandary between the moral obligation to share wealth with kinfolk and neighbors and the necessity to make a profit and accumulate capital. Western scholars have recognized this dilemma The Contemporary Pacific, Volume 15, Number 2, Fall 2003, 277–307 © 2003 by University of Hawai‘i Press 277 278 the contemporary pacific • fall 2003 since the first fieldwork in economic anthropology by Bronislaw Malinow- ski (1922), Raymond Firth (1929; 1939), and others.

[email protected] Résumé : De nouvelles acquisitions de données courantologiques obtenues dans le suivi océanologique du lagon de Wallis entrepris depuis 2006, ont permis de mieux définir le schéma de circulation général du lagon de Wallis. L’importance des entrées d’eau océaniques dues au déferlement des vagues par-dessus la barrière récifale, mesurées dans plusieurs situations météo-océanologiques, aboutissent à la définition du concept de bourrelet de surpression créé par le déferlement des vagues par-dessus la barrière récifale qui se développe du coté au vent de l’île. L’importance de ce bourrelet de surpression conditionne la circulation dans le lagon par le biais des échanges entre bassins lagonaires au travers des chenaux internes et des passes. En fonction des conditions météo-océanologiques, il se développe une circulation circulaire conduisant au déplacement des masses d’eau excédentaires dans les bassins situés du côté opposé de l’île, et à leur évacuation par les passes et par-dessus le récif.

    DENGUE I OUTBREAK / WALLIS & FUTUNA 2002 - 2003 SITUATION AS AT 15/06/2003 Dr J-F YVON, Sia Hospital, Wallis · Total cases seen (ADS): 2622 à Wallis : 2357 à Futuna : 265 · including probable cases : 1632 · including confirmed cases : 170 à 153 on Wallis and 17 on Futuna · Cases hospitalised since the beginning of the outbreak : 302 à hospitalisations on Wallis: 267 à hospitalisations on Futuna: 35 · Deaths : 2 (DSS) v On Wallis, only sporadic cases persist. For Week 23, 6 probable cases (out of 20 declared cases) were reported and only 3 probable cases (out of 9 declared cases) for Week 24. v On Futuna, the outbreak has taken a pause; the intensive control measures taken against larval breeding areas and spraying to kill adult mosquitoes seem to have confined the outbreak. However, this slowdown may just be temporary and the measures put into place must be continued (the beginning of week 25 tends to confirm this theory with an upsurge in cases seen in office visits). To date, no severe or grave forms have been reported.
