The Japanese, and other Asians, are increasingly taking over some
of the roles previously played by Europeans in the Pacific islands,
which is giving rise to interesting new economic relationships, and
interesting new interactions between nationalities. This book
considers the role of the Japanese in the Solomon Islands, focusing
in particular on a joint venture between the Japanese multinational
Maruha Corporation and the Solomon Islands government, which
managed a tuna fishing and processing enterprise which was a
mainstay of the Solomon Islands economy from the 1970s to 2000. It
considers a range of important themes including the changing nature
of colonialism, the degree to which people's ethnic sense of self,
and therefore their relationship with others, is affected by how
modern (or primitive) their nation is perceived to be, and how all
this relates to the development of capitalism, nationalism, and
modernity.
