Editorial Reviews

Review

The papers on district officers in the Solomons, mediators and middlemen in Vanuatu, elected officials in Ponape, local government officers and big-men in Papua New Guinea, village-government interaction in Fiji, and the role of village mayors in Western Samoa are all readable interpretations not straitjacketed by a simplistic paradigm.>>> (Weiner, Annette Journal Of The Polynesian Society )

...it should help to revitalize the study of Pacific middlemen....>>>> (Weiner, Annette The Canadian Review Of Sociology And Anthropology )

The editors...are to be congratulated for moving into an area of investigation that must account for the complexity in the links between national and local encounters.>>>> (Weiner, Annette )
