ABSTRACTFor decades, the United States has administered compacts of free association with the Republic of Palau, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Federated States of Micronesia. Scholars have criticized the United States for using the compacts to limit the sovereignty of the compact states, but they have not determined how the compact states fit into the American empire in the Pacific Ocean. A review of the U.S. documentary record from the early twenty-first century indicates that the United States has ruled the compact states through its own particular form of neocolonialism, or ‘compact colonialism’. Under the compacts, the United States has exercised several powers, including military controls, political controls, economic controls, cultural influence and humanitarian indifference. With this neocolonial approach, the United States has exploited the compact states to maintain a large oceanic empire in the Pacific Ocean.KEYWORDS: Compact of free associationlarge ocean stateneocolonialismAmerican empireoceanic empire Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 U.S. Embassy Kolonia, ‘Farewell Reflections: A Special Relationship Requires Improved Aid Delivery; China Bids High’, 09KOLONIA123, 13 September 2009. https://wikileaks.org/plusd/cables/09KOLONIA123_a.html.2 U.S. Embassy Kolonia, ‘Farewell Reflections: A Special Relationship Requires Improved Aid Delivery; China Bids High’, 09KOLONIA123, 13 September, 2009, https://wikileaks.org/plusd/cables/09KOLONIA123_a.html.3 Thomas J McCormick, China Market: America’s Quest for Informal Empire, 1893–1901, Chicago: Quadrangle Books, 1967; Bruce Cumings, Dominion from Sea to Sea: Pacific Ascendancy and American Power, New Haven: Yale University Press, 2009.4 David Hanlon, ‘The ‘Sea of Little Lands’: Examining Micronesia’s Place in ‘Our Sea of Islands’’, The Contemporary Pacific, 21(1), 2009, pp 91–110. https://doi.org/10.1353/cp.0.0042.5 Ganeshwar Chand, ‘The United States and the Origins of the Trusteeship System’, Review, 14(2), Spring 1991, pp 171–230; Hal M Friedman, Creating an American Lake: United States Imperialism and Strategic Security in the Pacific Basin, 1945-1947, Contributions in Military Studies, no. 198, Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 2001; Hal M Friedman, Governing the American Lake: The US Defense and Administration of the Pacific, 1945–1947, East Lansing: Michigan State University Press, 2007; Hal M Friedman, Arguing over the American Lake: Bureaucracy and Rivalry in the U.S. Pacific, 1945-1947, Williams-Ford Texas A&M University Military History Series, no. 126, College Station: Texas A&M University Press, 2009; Kimie Hara, ‘Micronesia: ‘An American Lake,’’ in Cold War Frontiers in the Asia-Pacific: Divided Territories in the San Francisco System, London: Routledge, 2006, pp 100–123, https://doi.org/10.4324/9780203967003.6 U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, Trusteeship Agreement for the Territory of the Pacific Isla
摘要几十年来,美国与帕劳共和国、马绍尔群岛共和国和密克罗尼西亚联邦签订了自由联合协定。学者们批评美国利用协约来限制协约国的主权,但他们没有确定协约国如何融入太平洋上的美帝国。对21世纪初美国文献记录的回顾表明,美国通过自己特殊形式的新殖民主义或“契约殖民主义”统治了契约国家。根据这些条约,美国行使了几项权力,包括军事控制、政治控制、经济控制、文化影响和人道主义冷漠。通过这种新殖民主义方式,美国利用协约国在太平洋维持一个庞大的海洋帝国。关键词:自由联合契约;大洋国家;殖民主义;美帝国;大洋帝国披露声明作者未发现潜在的利益冲突。注1美国驻科洛尼亚大使馆,《告别反思:特殊关系需要改进援助交付》;《中国出价最高》,2009年9月13日。https://wikileaks.org/plusd/cables/09KOLONIA123_a.html.2美国驻科洛尼亚大使馆,“告别反思:特殊关系需要改善援助交付;《中国出价高》,2009年9月13日,https://wikileaks.org/plusd/cables/09KOLONIA123_a.html.3托马斯·J·麦考密克:《中国市场:美国对非正式帝国的追求,1893-1901》,芝加哥:四方书店,1967;Bruce Cumings,《从海到海的自治权:太平洋优势和美国力量》,纽黑文:耶鲁大学出版社,2009年。David Hanlon,《小陆地之海》:审视密克罗尼西亚在《我们的岛屿之海》中的地位》,《当代太平洋》,21(1),2009年,第91-110页。https://doi.org/10.1353/cp.0.0042.5 Ganeshwar Chand,“美国和托管制度的起源”,Review, 14(2), 1991年春季,第171-230页;《创建一个美国湖:1945-1947年太平洋盆地的美帝国主义与战略安全》,《军事研究贡献》第2期。198,西港,康涅狄格州:格林伍德出版社,2001;哈尔·M·弗里德曼,《治理美国湖:1945-1947年美国太平洋防务与管理》,东兰辛:密歇根州立大学出版社,2007年;哈尔·M·弗里德曼:《美国湖之争:1945-1947年美国太平洋地区的官僚主义与竞争》,威廉斯-福特德克萨斯农工大学军事史丛书,第2期。126,大学城:德州农工大学出版社,2009;原基美,“密克罗尼西亚:一个美国的湖”,载于《亚太地区的冷战边界:旧金山体系中的分裂领土》,伦敦:劳特利奇出版社,2006年,第100-123页,https://doi.org/10.4324/9780203967003.6美国参议院外交关系委员会,《太平洋岛屿领土托管协定》,第80届,第一次会议。, 1947年7月7日美国参议院外交关系委员会,《太平洋岛屿领土托管协定》,第80届会议,第一次会议。唐纳德·F·麦克亨利,密克罗尼西亚:背叛的信任:美国外交政策中的利他主义与自身利益,纽约:卡内基国际和平基金会,1975年;大卫·内文,《密克罗尼西亚的美国风情》,纽约:w.w.诺顿公司,1977年;哈罗德·F·努弗,《美国统治下的密克罗尼西亚:战略托管的评估(1947-77)》,希克斯维尔:博览会出版社,1978年;罗杰·W·盖尔:《密克罗尼西亚的美国化:美国在太平洋地区巩固统治的研究》,华盛顿特区;Thomas Lum,《自由结社国家与国会议题》,国会研究服务处,2020年10月7日,https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/details?prodcode=R46573.10 Thomas Lum,《自由结社国家与国会议题》,国会研究服务处,2020年10月7日,https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/details?prodcode=R46573.11 John C .

Mit den jugoslawischen Nachfolgekriegen beherrschten in den 1990ern Narrative von ewigem Hass und interethnischer Gewalt auf dem »Balkan« die westlichen Medien. Doch bereits Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts war dieser als imaginierter »europäischer Orient« in den geopolitischen und medialen Fokus angrenzender und weit(er) entfernter Länder gerückt. Wie wurden Bilder vom »Balkan« mit orientalisierten Vorstellungen angereichert oder davon abgegrenzt? Am Beispiel der Encounter Felix Kanitz und Edith Durham sowie der serbischen US-Migrationsgemeinschaft um Mihajlo Pupin beleuchtet Eva Tamara Asboth, wie Geschichtsbilder räumlich transferiert und übersetzt wurden. Sie zeigt: Die regionale Geschichte war und ist von zahlreichen Begegnungen, Widersprüchen und politischen Verwicklungen geprägt.

Mediale Diskurse über Asyl sind häufig emotional, polarisiert und erzeugen Bedrohungsgefühle. Außerdem bilden sie einen wesentlichen Raum für die Aushandlung des eigenen Selbstverständnisses und berühren Fragen von Humanität, Solidarität und Zugehörigkeit. Aus einer postkolonialen Perspektive sagen die meist binären Konstruktionen über die echten und unechten Flüchtlinge mehr über das Eigene als über die Ankommenden aus. Über den Zeitraum von 1977-1999 betrachtet Nadine Sylla, wie der Asyldiskurs der Bundesrepublik Konstruktionen des Eigenen hervorbringt. Sie untersucht, welche Beziehungsverhältnisse, Deutungsmuster und Wissensordnungen über Migration vorherrschen und wie sich diese über die Zeit verändern.

This paper contributes to recent debates about memorials and the persistence of outmoded forms that commemorate figures associated with slavery and colonial depredations. The focus is on John Batman, often considered to be the founder of Melbourne, and a subject that has been commemorated in numerous forms. We explore the ways in which reified understandings of Batman were consolidated by these memorials. We argue that they provided a basis for the rampant settler colonialism that was initiated by his arrival in what became Melbourne. While the power of the Batman myth has endured for many years, we show how more recently it has been challenged by a range of art-inspired memorials that provide oppositional and alternative meanings and forms. We especially focus on the potency of counter-memorials, forms that directly address these older modes of commemoration, and anti-memorials, inventive installations that seek to dissolve singular meanings and continue the work of decentring outmoded commemorative forms and narratives.

ABSTRACT Derrida’s work on ‘archive fever’ has prompted a great deal of academic reflection about the archive and what a critical ‘archiving’ of the past can imply for our understanding of the present. And yet, if the object of historical study is musical sound, what can a ‘fevered’ approach to the archive tell us through the silence of its dusty materials? When adding in the further complexity of a colonial context, the archiving of what Stoler has termed the ‘imperial debris’ of empire brings up a further conundrum: that of what I call here the ‘audible debris’ of empire: i.e. the sonic traces of power and resistance through musical sound that are otherwise absent from traditional historical narratives. In this article, I examine nineteenth-century British attitudes about music at the South African mission station of Lovedale in order to interrogate what a ‘destabilised’ archival awareness can bring to postcolonial musical scholarship. I ask how the structures of colonial archiving that created the imperial historiography of Lovedale (the ‘archival imaginary’) have influenced and reinforced the ‘disciplining strains’ of Lovedale’s musical activities. In turn, I also consider how these ‘disciplining strains’ have created audible legacies that are themselves musical archives of imperial processes.
