This book examines the attitudes of tertiary students in Melanesia and Timor-Leste to national identity and key issues of nation-building. Their views are pivotal to understanding the challenges of building a more cohesive sense of national identity and political community in these states. Melanesian countries show a relatively high degree of similarity in their responses to the surveys on national identity carried out by the authors, but with key differences attributable to particular historical, regional or linguistic legacies of colonial rule. The ongoing importance of traditional authority and kastom/adat in conceptions of political community and identity is evident in all four case study sites, and in each case matches indicators of respect for modern state authority. Although different for each site, the authors' findings also illustrate the importance of students' geographical region of origin, language orientation and gender in explaining key differences in attitudes towards national identity. The book demonstrates that strong levels of national identification and pride persist among the future leaders of the countries surveyed, even in the face of ongoing regional and linguistic divisions and weak state capacity, suggesting a strong potential basis for nation-building agendas if wider challenges of democratic performance, service provision and regional development can be addressed over time.

Heather Wallace has been channeling information for more than a decade. To use her word, "translator" is a more accurate term for what she does when she connects with spiritually aware entities from the spirit plane. She only connects and collaborates with beings working toward the greater good with love and integrity; she protects herself from malevolent beings and does not allow them to break through her psychic barriers. For her collaboration on "Shift: New Paradigms for a New Earth," she connected with a being called "Holly" from the Pleiadian star system and it is through Holly that she presents transformational information accessible to anyone interested to evolve to a more enlightened existence. In "Shift: New Paradigms for a New Earth" Holly reveals outmoded programs that do not support self-empowerment or self-love and introduces ways in which the reader can shift these outmoded paradigms, embracing new ideas and concepts that align with our divine being. Holly explains our evolution from a mental-driven culture into a heart-centered species and how our previous patterns of behavior are no longer serving us. She covers the nature of time as not being linear, reincarnation, our nature as multidimensional beings, why we are here, vibrational frequency and other dimensions. As we move into a new age of expanded spiritual awareness, these subjects are becoming part of our accepted knowledge base and reality. Our vibration has shifted, and continues to shift, bringing us into an unprecedented era of expansion. It reasonably follows that new knowledge will now be available to us that is in resonance with our new vibration.
