Download or read book Introduction to Tokelau written by Gilad James, PhD and published by Gilad James Mystery School. This book was released on with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tokelau is a group of three small coral atolls located in the South Pacific. The population of this tiny island nation is just under 1,500 and has been isolated from the rest of the world for centuries. The people of Tokelau have a unique Polynesian identity and are connected to the ocean through their traditional ways of life, including fishing and navigating the waters. Due to their remote location and small population, the people of Tokelau face challenges such as limited economic opportunities and a lack of access to resources and infrastructure. However, the government of Tokelau has been working to improve the lives of its citizens through sustainable development projects and partnerships with neighboring countries. Tokelau is also a leader in renewable energy, with plans to transition to 100% solar power. Despite its challenges, Tokelau remains a proud and vibrant community with a rich cultural heritage and close ties to the ocean.

Book excerpt: Tokelau: A Historical Ethnography is the outcome of more than two decades of intensive and wide-ranging research in and about the three tiny Polynesian atolls known as Tokelau.

Throughout, the differences and interrelationships between the three places are highlighted.

Book Synopsis Te Kauhiva Tokelau by : Candice Steiner
Download or read book Te Kauhiva Tokelau written by Candice Steiner and published by . This book was released on 2015-05-15 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A snapshot in time with an eye to the past of a school named "the future," this book moves from Tokelau to the diaspora, the classroom, and then the stage in order to understand the role of Tokelauan pehe ma fatele (songs and dances) in the culture and language efforts of Te Lumanaki o Tokelau i Amelika, a Tokelau culture and language school based in Central O'ahu in Hawai'i. Through both Pacific Islands studies and ethnomusicological approaches, this book presents a rigorous yet sensitive analysis of Pacific Island ways of knowing and learning in the diasporic classroom. As increased migration continues in the Pacific Islands region and around the world, and as the negative effects of climate change intensify and raise questions of population displacement, research such as this documents and makes available existing models for cultural sustainability in the diaspora.Te Kauhiva Tokelau is part of a family of works documenting the school's history and activities, and readers are encouraged to experience them together. For a detailed history of the Tokelau community in Hawai'i, including the development of the school, see Betty Ickes's PhD dissertation "Expanding the Tokelau Archipelago: Tokelau's Decolonization and Olohega's Penu Tafea in the Hawai'i Diaspora" (2009). For a careful look at the community's linguistic practices and experiences, see Akiemi Glenn's PhD dissertation "Wayfinding in Pacific Linguascapes: Negotiating Tokelau Linguistic Identities in Hawai'i" (2012). Both works are available through the University of Hawai'i's Hamilton Library.

Book Synopsis The Future of Tokelau by : Judith Huntsman
Download or read book The Future of Tokelau written by Judith Huntsman and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Future of Tokelau is a sequel to Judith Huntsman and Antony Hooper's Tokelau: A Historical Ethnography (1997), and follows the history of that small Pacific nation from the 1970s up to the recent referendum in which Tokelauans decisively voted against independence. This is an extraordinary story - a dramatic narrative - sometimes taking place under the palm trees of far-away Tokelau, sometimes in the bland offices of New Zealand's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, sometimes in the monumental UN building in New York. Officials and politicians and Tokelau elders all play their role and the repeated clash of cultures leads to comic, bizarre and often disturbing outcomes. A superbly researched study of the politics of a small state in a modern world, The Future of Tokelau is also an illuminating picture of MFAT, its operations and relationships, and a brilliant critique of the United Nations and the way it conducts its affairs.
Book Synopsis Migration and Health in a Small Society by : Albert F. Wessen
Download or read book Migration and Health in a Small Society written by Albert F. Wessen and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1965 and 1975, a large proportion of the population of Tokelau, a group of three tiny isolated atolls in the tropical South Pacific, migrated to New Zealand, where they became part of a cosmopolitan urban society. By 1985, two-thirds of all Tokelauans lived in New Zealand. This book traces the experience of the Tokelauans, both migrant and non-migrant, during the period 1965-85. The analysis is interdisciplinary, drawing upon historical, ethnographic, sociological, and epidemiological materials. Topics discussed include the ecology and history of Tokelau, the nature of Tokelauan culture and society, the problems of adaptation faced by migrants to New Zealand and their efforts to develop a viable Tokelauan community there, the impact of modernizing influences upon atoll society, changes in the health status of both migrant and non-migrant Tokelauans, and the relationship of social change to the health of the population. Special attention is paid to the hypothesis that the migrants' adaptation to modern urban society would lead to increased incidence of such chronic conditions as hypertension, coronary heart disease, asthma, and diabetes. The work serves as a valuable and in many ways unique source of information for public health professionals, medical anthropologists, sociologists and specialists in development policy.
