Explaining Investment Policies in Microstates: The Case of the Fiji Islands By Sudarsan Kant A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Missouri-St. Louis In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy In Political Science November 15, 2011 Advisory Committee Kenneth Thomas, PhD., (Chair) Nancy Kinney, Ph.D. Eduardo Silva, Ph.D. Daniel Hellinger, Ph.D. Abstract . Prevailing theories have failed to take into account the development of policy and institutions in microstates that are engineered to attract investments in areas of comparative advantage as these small islands confront the challenges of globalization and instead have emphasized migration, remittances and foreign aid (MIRAB) as an explanation for the survival of microstates in the global economy. This dissertation challenges the MIRAB model as an adequate explanation of investment strategy in microstates and argues that comparative advantage is a better theory to explain policy behavior of microstates.

  • Agricultural Terracing at Nakauvadra, Viti Levu: a Late Prehistoric Irrigated Agrosystem in Fiji
    Agricultural Terracing at Nakauvadra, Viti Levu: A Late Prehistoric Irrigated Agrosystem in Fiji ROBERT KUHLKEN AND ANDREW CROSBY ROOT CROPS FORMED THE BASIS OF SUBSISTENCE in the majority of prehistoric Pacific Island agrosystems. Besides yams (Dioscorea spp.), the most important do­ mesticate was taro (Colocasia esculenta), an ancient cultigen, and one inextricably linked with the development of Oceanian societies (Greenwell 1947; Spier 1951). This starchy tuber was the staple food in the diet of many Islanders, and was fur­ ther infused with ceremonial and ritual significance. In Fiji, root crops such as taro are categorized in dietary typology as kakana dina (true food), and no meal is deemed complete without them (Pollock 1986: 108). Also, the presentation of huge amounts of food by subservient local groups in customary tribute to more powerful polities was commonplace and expected. Yams and taro, along with turtles, were the standard components of these mandatory contributions. As po­ litical integration and social stratification proceeded, tributary requirements in­ creased, thereby exerting pressure on food-production capabilities. Agricultural intensification-the increase of labor inputs to a given area of land-was generally induced by some combination of social and environmental factors. The process may have occurred on Pacific Islands for various reasons, including the necessity for greater yields to support growing populations; the cul­ turally determined requirement for surplus production; or simply the need to overcome micro climatic and agronomic constraints (Brookfield 1972). Whatever the impetus behind it, increased agricultural intensity often resulted in dramatic and durable modifications to the environment. Yam mounds became a distinctive feature of agricultural landscapes in certain parts of Oceania; and intensive taro production typically assumed several forms: raised beds or drained fields in coastal plains and wetland areas, and irrigated terracing along streams and on hillsides.

  • MEDIA RELEASE No.9 3Pm Saturday 20 February 2016
    MEDIA RELEASE No.9 th 3pm Saturday 20 February 2016 SEVERE TROPICAL CYCLONE – WINSTON (CAT5) Severe Tropical Cyclone Winston continues to move westward as a Category 5 system and expected to further intensify. It was located between Koro Island and Vanua-Levu at midday today. Destructive winds have started to affect parts of the country and are expected to spread to the other parts of the country later today. As such, the following warnings remain current: A Hurricane Warning remains in force for Vanua-Levu, Taveuni and nearby smaller islands, Northern half of Viti-Levu, Ovalau, Gau, Batiki, Nairai, Koro, Vanuabalavu, Yacata, Mago,Cicia, Tuvuca, Nayau and Vanuavatu. A Storm Warning remains in force for Lakeba, Oneata, Moce, Komo,Namuka, Ogea, Moala, Southern half of Viti Levu, Yasawa and Mamanuca Group. A Gale Warning remains in force for the rest of Fiji. A Damaging Heavy Swell Warning remains in force for low lying coastal areas of Fiji. A Heavy Rain Warning remains in force for Fiji. At 1pm today, Severe Tropical Cyclone Winston (917hPa) Category 5 was located near 17.1 degree South latitude and 179.7 degree East longitude or about 50km southwest of Taveuni or about 175km northeast of Suva at 1pm today. It is currently moving west at 25km/hr (about 14knots). Close to its centre, the cyclone is estimated to have average winds of 230 km/hr (about 125 knots) with momentary gusts up to 325 km/hr (about 175 knots). On its projected track, Severe TC Winston is expected to maintain its Category 5 intensity and anticipated to take a southward turn when located west of Nadi on Monday.

    10 Bird, mammal and reptile remains Trevor H. Worthy School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences, The University of New South Wales Geoffrey Clark Department of Archaeology and Natural History, The Australian National University Introduction This chapter reports the non-fish remains from 10 archaeological excavations on Viti Levu and the Lau Group, including the reanalysis of a bird-bone assemblage from Lakeba Island excavated previously by Simon Best (1984). Bone remains from Natunuku and Ugaga were uncommon and the small assemblages were misplaced during collection relocation after bushfires destroyed the ANU archaeological storage facility in 2003, and these assemblages are not considered further. Three of the non-fish faunal assemblages are from the Lau Group (Qaranipuqa, Votua, Sovanibeka), one is from the north coast of Viti Levu (Navatu 17A), and the remainder are from the southwest Viti Levu region (Malaqereqere, Tuvu, Volivoli II, Volivoli III, Qaraninoso II) and Beqa Island (Kulu). This chapter presents the non-fish fauna from the Lau Group, followed by that from Viti Levu and Beqa Island. Faunal analysis began early in Fiji, with bone remains identified at Navatu and Vuda on Viti Levu by Gifford (1951:208–213). Gifford’s excavations demonstrated that pig, dog, chicken, turtle, fruit bat and humans were consumed during the ‘early period’ of Fiji. The study of archaeofauna declined after this promising start due to the absence of prehistoric fauna in sites such as Sigatoka and Karobo (Palmer 1965; Birks 1973), and the cursory identification of bone remains at sites like Yanuca and Natunuku (Birks and Birks 1978; Davidson et al.

  • Vuda and Waya Qoliqoli
    Community initiative to create employment stability: Vuda and Waya Qoliqoli The communities of Vuda and Waya are the traditional resource owners of a large section of the Mamanuca and lower Yasawa islands, north of Lautoka town, predominant tourism development areas of Fiji. In the 1990s, community leaders, working in partnership with early local tourism pioneers such as Mr Dan Costello (Beachcomber Island), decided that in order to support sustainable development and employment in the area, they would declare no-fishing areas around resorts. Initially, in 1996, three islands were declared no-fishing areas by the traditional leader, the Tui Vuda, Ratu Sir Tavaiqia, who wrote an open letter saying "I confirm that the waters around the islands of Tai, Eluvuka and Kadavu Lailai in Nadi Bay are now either Fisheries Reserves or are to be designated Fisheries Reserves and therefore no fish, shell fish or octopus (sasala ni waitui) are to be taken from those waters in that area of sea being 400 m from the shoreline of those islands." These islands are now known as Beachcomber (Tai), Treasure (Eluvuka) and Bounty (Kadavu Lailai) Island Resorts. Aerial photograph of the protected reef within the Marine Protected Area at Treasure Island Resort. © Treasure Island Resort These first reserves were later joined by no-fishing areas fronting newer resorts at South Sea Island Resort (Vunivadra Island), Tivua Island Resort, and Vomo Island Resort. To the north, on Wayalailai and Kuata Islands, similar protected areas were formed at Wayalailai Ecohaven, Naqalia Lodge and Kuata Barefoot Island Resort (Fig. 1). Most of these reserves only cover shallow fringing reefs from beach to the deepwater drop off, but a new, larger area including an expanse of open sea and dolphin habitat was declared in February 2017.
