Book excerpt: "In 1865 a trading captain called at the tiny atoll of Nukulaelae in Tuvalu and obtained a 25-year lease to the estern islet of Niuoku on behalf of the German firm of J.C. Godeffroy & Sohn. The firm then developed a coconut plantation which was never free of controversy. There were quarrels between the people of Nukulaelae and the imported labourers and endless disagreements betwen Godeffroys and the people over the terms of the lease. The alienation of their largest islet caused considerable suffering to the people of Nukulaelae, whose numbers had been decimated by Peruvian slave raids a few years earlier, but the Germans refused to leave until the lease expired in 1890. Today, the events surrounding the German plantation at Niuoku is a tale of note in Nukulaelae recollection, and every year the community commemorates the day of rejoicing when the lease finally expired."--Back cover

Download or read book Languages of Governance in Conflict written by Ingjerd Hoëm and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2015-03-20 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through an ethnographically based study of local communicative practices in the Pacific atoll society of Tokelau, the book adds to our understanding of how systems of governance are constituted by minute acts of social interaction, and are informed by our conceptions of the nature of sociality. It combines a social anthropological approach to postcolonial studies in which local and trans-national communicative practices related to governance and conflict management are analysed as different language games. The book offers an experience-near approach to local modes of conflict management and patterns of leadership, and documents how micro-level communicative practices have an impact on macro-political processes.
