Abstract

A paradox in the making of nation‐states is that the writing of history is often historically linked to claims of a primordial identity. Focusing on the Solomon Islands, this analysis examines the creation of a national narrative in the context of the encompassment of the Solomons, especially by capitalism and colonialism. Examination of the national museum, the revival of chiefdomship, and development programs reveals how the Solomons has sought to construct a national history based on the notion of an original primordial identity masked by subsequent linguistic and cultural differentiation.

历史、认同与包容:所罗门群岛的民族建构

民族国家形成过程中的一个悖论是，历史的书写往往在历史上与原始身份的主张联系在一起。本分析以所罗门群岛为重点，考察了在所罗门群岛被包围的背景下，特别是在资本主义和殖民主义的包围下，国家叙事的创造。对国家博物馆的考察、对酋长统治的复兴和发展计划揭示了所罗门人是如何试图在被随后的语言和文化差异掩盖的原始身份概念的基础上构建国家历史的。

期刊介绍： Identities explores the relationship of racial, ethnic and national identities and power hierarchies within national and global arenas. It examines the collective representations of social, political, economic and cultural boundaries as aspects of processes of domination, struggle and resistance, and it probes the unidentified and unarticulated class structures and gender relations that remain integral to both maintaining and challenging subordination. Identities responds to the paradox of our time: the growth of a global economy and transnational movements of populations produce or perpetuate distinctive cultural practices and differentiated identities.
