Home Ground; Kaha Monty In ­, I found my way to Tanna Island in what was then the New Hebrides, and Vanuatu today. My proposal to study dierential success with economic development as informed by religious aliation soon morphed into a series of better conceived and more fruitful projects. Then and now, the generous people of Samaria village put me up and put up with me. Over the years, I have come to know Samaria and its neighboring villages located within southeast Tanna’s Nafe language area. Although I write of Tanna as a whole, this is shameless ethnographic license that commonly takes one particular place as representative of some encompassing culture, society, and history. Tanna is a remarkable and complex island, and stories from a single village or area never adequately capture its larger truths. Anthropologists like to tell other people’s stories but local experts tell them even better. Tanna oers a rich and profuse narrative archive and Islanders keep this vital with recurrent retellings of Tanna’s times. I draw on island narratives to present the life stories of a dozen island personalities, situating these exemplar heroes and heroines within their cultural and historical worlds. Personal names, on Tanna, are tricky economic and family resources. The stories presented here introduce Islanders with their given names until we reach the present day. I re- name people who share our own times, asking their forgiveness for thus partly shadowing their persons. In addition to the many island stories told to me over four decades on Tanna, to understand these lives and their times I draw on the writings of explorers, missionaries, traders, administrators, reporters, and anthropologists who found their way to the island, beginning in . For those who might want to pursue a particular life story or an ethnographic theme, I provide suggestions for further reading at the end of each chapter. This literature, selected from a larger canon that has informed my research and writing, oers additional, detailed ethno- graphic and historical information about Tanna and its people. xiii Passing years have decidedly lengthened the list of my benefactors and support- ers, on Tanna and elsewhere. This book draws upon years of island history and forty years of my own. As it may be my last, I must thank many friends and colleagues, some sadly missed. These include professional mentors including Margaret Mackenzie, Bob Tonkinson, and Roger Keesing; departmental col- leagues at the University of Tulsa; research hosts and island companions Ken and Anne Calvert, Gordon MacFarlane, Bob Paul, Cynthia Frazer; Kirk Human, Ralph Regenvanu, Marcellin Abong, Richard Shing, Jacob Kapere, Jean-Pascal Wahe, and Joel Iau from the Vanuatu Cultural Centre/National Museum; and fellow scholars of Vanuatu’s many cultures and languages whose research has in- formed mine and whose books ll my shelves, including Michael Allen, Lissant Bolton, Joël Bonnemaison, Terry Crowley, Annelin Eriksen, Ellen Facey, James Flexner, Haidy Geismar, Jean Guiart, James Gwero, Sabine Hess, Bergmans Iati, Margaret Jolly, Janet Dixon Keller, Thorgeir Kolshus, Daniela Kraemer, Joan Larcom, Vincent Lebot, Jeremy MacClancy, Carlos Mondragon, Anna Naupa, Ken Nehrbass, Mary Patterson, Jean-Marc Philibert, Knut Rio, Margaret and William Rodman, Benedicta Rousseau, Rachel Smith, Matthew Spriggs, Marc Tabani, John Taylor, Darrell Tryon, Chelsea Wentworth, and Alexandra Wid- mer, with much appreciation to Howard Van Trease, John Lynch, Robert Early, and Nettie Moerman for many entertaining and illuminating conversations in Port Vila’s kava bars. The University of Tulsa’s Oce of Research, the Henry Kendall College of Arts and Sciences Dean’s Oce, and the Department of Anthropology partly supported open access publication. I also thank University of Hawai‘i Press edi- tor Emma Ching and her colleagues at the Press for transforming text and pho- tos into a tangible book—a book I oer to my island friends in return for many years of welcome and hospitality. Samaria is propitiously named and I owe most gratitude to the families I rst met there in ­, extending now to the children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren of Rapi and Iati, Iau and Sakrai, Vani and Kasaia, Kieri and Jacobeth, Nakutan and Neiporo, Kamti Asori, Kauke Asori, and Sarei, generous and good Samaritans all. And I thank many other xv xvi Acknowledgments storytellers in neighboring villages. All are expert raconteurs of island lives and times, and I am much obliged that my own story has joined Tanna’s nar- rative ow. Ipare think that we live in a most hectic age, buf- feted by epic global ows of people, of things, of ideas. But our W times are not extraordinary. We might like to think we inhabit the world’s hub, the global core. But our place is not special. We might like to think we set the human standard, that everyone else desires naturally to emulate our ways. But we are not exemplary. Gaze out into the world and we can nd global networks established millennia before the Old World met the New World (or rst remembered so doing) in . These intensifying grids and channels have continued to proliferate. Globalization reaches us all. But within our intercon- nected world, despite this worldwide intercourse, we also nd myriad forms of local exceptionalism, going strong and underway. Global Island Come to Tanna, an island in the southern reaches of Vanuatu, a Y-shaped archi- pelago in the southwestern Pacic, miles west of Fiji and , miles east of Australia (map). Strangers from abroad found their way to Tanna in follow- ing the glow of its volcano, Iasur, which reddened the horizon. British explorer James Cook and his crew, on the sailing ship Resolution, were atypical visitors but not exceptional in that Islanders themselves sailed about Vanuatu’s south- ern islands and beyond to the Loyalties and New Caledonia. Their oceangoing ancestors had canoed in from the north about three thousand years previously. Cook needed to replenish his ship’s supplies of water and rewood and he also wanted to explore. Johann Forster, the expedition’s natural scientist, with his son Georg ventured forth into island hamlets located around a bay that Cook named Port Resolution, a er his ship. The Forsters reconnoitered and chatted with the locals whom they called Indians, a residue label from even earlier global encounters. They reported back to Cook that Resolution had landed on Tanna. This word, though, means ground or soil. An anthropologist in the s would Tanna map. Created by author. Ipare joke that Cook, searching for the island’s name, pointed downward: “What do you call this?” he asked. “Why, we call it dirt.” This may be just an amusing yarn as the Forsters provided few details of that linguistic encounter. Tanna might already have been the island’s estab- lished name, as it has since become. Some suggest that the island’s true name is Tanauta, which means something like “land of wealth,” and people on neigh- boring Futuna Island call Tanna Hgauta. Nomenclatural claims are muddled although Tanna is most recognized. The long archipelago has also shi ed iden- tity. Captain Pedro Fernandes de Queirós, in , landed on its largest island that he dubbed Austrialia del Espiritu Santo. A century and a half later, in , French explorer Louis Antoine de Bougainville sailed through northern Vanu- atu, pausing to rename the islands the Grand Cyclades, having in mind a smaller archipelago in the Aegean Sea. Cook, who was likewise inclined to bestow new place names, renamed these islands the New Hebrides a er some mostly tree- less islands o Scotland’s west coast. Leaving behind his newly identied Tanna and the New Hebrides, he sailed south next to nd a facsimile of Scotland, a long narrow island that he christened New Caledonia.

  • Appendix 3: Finding Aid for Vanuatu Material in Scotland
    ReviewReview ofof PacificPacific Collections in Scottish Museums Appendix 3: Finding Aid for Vanuatu Material in Scotland Produced as part of Pacific Collections in Scottish Museums: Unlocking their knowledge and potential project 2013-2014. For full information and resources visit www.nms.ac.uk/pacific Artefacts and Archives relating to Vanuatu in public repositories in Scotland (United Kingdom) This finding aid has been compiled as a result of a preliminary survey of Pacific Collections in Scottish Museums undertaken between April 2013 and December 2014. The review scoped the extent of Pacific collections in Scotland and identified key strengths and resources for future research. It also compiled Collections Level Descriptions for each regional island group and to highlight significance. The review was undertaken as a partnership across four museums in Scotland with significant or extensive collections from the Pacific region. These partners were National Museums Scotland (Edinburgh); Glasgow Museums; Perth Museum and Art Gallery and Aberdeen University Museums. Each of these museums hold collections from Vanuatu that have clear associations with islands or regions in Vanuatu and relate to well known Scottish missionaries. How to use this finding aid This finding aid provides an overview of Ni-Vanuatu artefact collections in Scotland and where possible related archives or photographs. The following list provides the names of key individuals through which the collections were acquired. The finding aid enables an initial overview of collections and resources and provides contact details for each of the major museums and libraries so that requests for further information can be made. The finding aid should also be used in conjunction with Excel spreadsheets and photographs of artefacts also deposited with the National Archives of Vanuatu.

    December 2019 Mapping the Information Environment in the Pacific Island Countries: Disruptors, Deficits, and Decisions Lauren Dickey, Erica Downs, Andrew Taffer, and Heidi Holz with Drew Thompson, S. Bilal Hyder, Ryan Loomis, and Anthony Miller Maps and graphics created by Sue N. Mercer, Sharay Bennett, and Michele Deisbeck Approved for Public Release: distribution unlimited. IRM-2019-U-019755-Final Abstract This report provides a general map of the information environment of the Pacific Island Countries (PICs). The focus of the report is on the information environment—that is, the aggregate of individuals, organizations, and systems that shape public opinion through the dissemination of news and information—in the PICs. In this report, we provide a current understanding of how these countries and their respective populaces consume information. We map the general characteristics of the information environment in the region, highlighting trends that make the dissemination and consumption of information in the PICs particularly dynamic. We identify three factors that contribute to the dynamism of the regional information environment: disruptors, deficits, and domestic decisions. Collectively, these factors also create new opportunities for foreign actors to influence or shape the domestic information space in the PICs. This report concludes with recommendations for traditional partners and the PICs to support the positive evolution of the information environment.

  • Pacific Study (Focusing on Fiji, Tonga and Vanuatu
    1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 Hazard exposure 1.1. Pacific island countries (PICs) are vulnerable to a broad range of natural disasters stemming from hydro-meteorological (such as cyclones, droughts, landslide and floods) and geo-physical hazards (volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and tsunamis). In any given year, it is likely that Fiji, Tonga and Vanuatu are either hit by, or recovering from, a major natural disaster. 1.2. The impact of natural disasters is estimated by the Pacific Catastrophe Risk Assessment and Financing Initiative as equivalent to an annualized loss of 6.6% of GDP in Vanuatu, and 4.3% in Tonga. For Fiji, the average asset losses due to tropical cyclones and floods are estimated at more than 5%. 1.3. In 2014, Tropical Cyclone (TC) Ian caused damage equivalent to 11% to Tonga's GDP. It was followed in 2018 by damage close to 38% of GDP from TC Gita. In 2015, category five TC Pam displaced 25% of Vanuatu's population and provoked damage estimated at 64% of GDP. In Fiji, Tropical Cyclone Winston affected 62% of the population and wrought damage amounting to 31% of GDP, only some three and a half years after the passage of Tropical Cyclone Evan. 1.4. Vanuatu and Tonga rank number one and two in global indices of natural disaster risk. Seismic hazard is an ever-present danger for both, together with secondary risks arising from tsunamis and landslides. Some 240 earthquakes, ranging in magnitude between 3.3 and 7.1 on the Richter Scale, struck Vanuatu and its surrounding region in the first ten months of 2018.

Reconciling Kastom and Modernity in Contemporary Vanuatu A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Social Sciences at The University of Waikato by Lavinia Gael Lea Mahit 2016 Abstract Drawing on fieldwork data and relevant anthropological literature, this thesis examines how potential tensions between the categories of modernity and kastom are reconciled in contemporary Vanuatu. Following an outline of how the category of kastom emerged through colonial encounters, the contemporary ‘mix’ between the indigenous and non-indigenous categories is considered. This research further considers the breakdown of an ‘indigenous/exogenous’, ‘old/new’, or ‘past/present’ dichotomy, and shows how the juxtaposition of these concepts offers a new way of understanding the world - not necessarily in opposition, but not always in agreement. The analysis is presented in four stages.

  • Bislama Into Kwamera: Code-Mixing and Language Change on Tanna (Vanuatu)
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by ScholarSpace at University of Hawai'i at Manoa Vol. 1, No. 2 (December 2007), pp. 216–239 http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc/ Bislama into Kwamera: Code-mixing and Language Change on Tanna (Vanuatu) Lamont Lindstrom University of Tulsa People throughout Vanuatu frequently mix Bislama (that country’s national Pidgin) into their vernaculars. Extensive code-mixing is an obvious indicator, and sometime cause, of language change or even language replacement. This paper discusses several sorts of Bislama code-mixing on Tanna among speakers of that island’s Kwamera language. It assesses levels and kinds of Bislama use in four village debates, tape-recorded in 1982 and 1983. Among other uses, Kwamera speakers mix Bislama when interjecting, reiterating, reporting speech, neutralizing marked vernacular terms, and qualifying what they say. The paper concludes with some remarks on the phonological, morphological/syntactic, and lexical/semantic consequences of recurrent language mixing—on how Islanders’ insertions of Bislama into their oratorical and everyday talk may or may not be effecting linguistic change in Kwamera. Bislama, so far at least, has enriched more than it has impoverished Tanna’s linguistic ecology. Speakers’ frequent Bislama mixes have not yet seriously undermined their vernacular. 1. INTRODUCTION. On the island of Tanna, Vanuatu, many people say that they don’t speak their language the way they used to. This language is Kwamera—or, to give it its local name, Nɨninɨfe1 or Nɨfe (Lindstrom 1986; Lindstrom and Lynch 1994). Around 3,500 people living along Tanna’s southeastern coasts speak Kwamera.

  • Arthur Grimes**
    Monetary Policy and Economic Imbalances: An Ethnographic Examination of the Arbee Rituals* Arthur Grimes** Introduction In his “Life Among the Econ” Axel Leijonhufvud (1973) took an ethnographic approach to describing the Econ tribe and, especially, two of its components: the Macro and the Micro. My purpose is to delve further into the life of the Macro, specifically examining the Arbee sub-tribe. Like Leijonhufvud, I take an ethnographic approach, having lived amongst the Arbee for two lengthy periods totalling twenty-four years. The Arbee sub-tribe that I have lived within, and will examine here, is situated in a small set of islands in the southern Pacific Ocean, that some call Aotearoa and others call New Zealand. They are related to Arbee sub-tribes elsewhere in the world through tight kinship connections.1 In ethnographic research,2 it is common to collect data through direct, first-hand observation of participants’ activities. Interviews may be used, varying from formal interviews to frequent casual small talk. Suffice to say, that no formal interviews have been adopted for this research. However there has been much first hand observation both of the Arbee people and of their relationships with other tribes and sub-tribes both in Aotearoa and beyond. The Imbalance The task of our research is to examine the nature of the Arbee reaction to claims by other tribes and sub-tribes that the Arbee rituals have caused The Imbalance in The Economy.3 Specifically, their highly formalised OC Ritual (OCR) has been blamed for creating The * I wish to thank Professor David Bettison who, in teaching me economic anthropology, taught me more about the subject of economics than did any economist before or since.
