Australia and Indonesia provide contrasting case studies for exploring the diverse and changing nature of fisheries governance. In the final chapter, “Fishing Livelihoods and Wellbeing,” Fabinyi and Barclay provide an outline for adopting a relational approach to fishing livelihoods to improve social and ecological outcomes in fisheries governance, noting the ways in which this approach can be utilized by academics, activists, and policy makers. They also advocate for a well-being approach that, while not a panacea, brings together diverse knowledge systems as it addresses a shared higher-level goal: the well-being of human communities, an aim typically stated in fisheries legislation. This approach is also attractive across disciplines, as it provides an adaptable framework rather than prescribing specific methods for research. These are crucial recommendations in the context of fisheries management development in the Asia-Pacific region, which is home to the largest number of fishers and the most diverse marine ecosystems on the planet. fiona mccormack Te Whare Wānanga o Waikato, University of Waikato
澳大利亚和印度尼西亚为探索渔业治理的多样性和不断变化的性质提供了对比的案例研究。在最后一章“渔业生计与福祉”中,Fabinyi和Barclay概述了采用关系方法来改善渔业治理的社会和生态成果,并指出了学者、活动家和政策制定者可以利用这种方法的方式。他们还倡导福祉方针,虽然不是万灵药,但它汇集了不同的知识体系,以解决一个共同的更高层次的目标:人类社区的福祉,这是渔业立法中通常提出的目标。这种方法在跨学科领域也很有吸引力,因为它提供了一个适应性强的框架,而不是规定具体的研究方法。这些都是亚太区域渔业管理发展背景下的重要建议,该区域拥有世界上最多的渔民和最多样化的海洋生态系统。fiona mccormack the Whare Wānanga o怀卡托,怀卡托大学

Abstract:In many cultures of the Pacific region, the self is relational, inevitably and permanently connected to other people and entities as a fact of existence. Among the articulations of Pacific relationality is the sacred relational space of connection and separation: vā. Differences in relational thinking around vā in the region should be celebrated, but in an increasingly mobile world, Pacific wisdom can also be honored by paying attention to commonalities. In his essay, we offer a dialogue between friends who seek mutual learning across our various fields in relation to the concept of vā: Samoan village life, Tongan leadership in the New Zealand Public Service, and Pacific education. Through an informed and critical conversation across established and emerging social spaces, we hope to provide navigation points for others who value the vā in research and other pursuits.

Abstract:In Papua New Guinea (PNG), news media frequently report on events in which groups exchange gifts as compensation for alleged harms. In news narratives of this type, compensation is a metaphor for the contact between liberal and relational social orders. In this way, news media in PNG produce knowledge of what it means to be a citizen in a society defined by vast and profound diversity. Different versions of the basic formula for compensation stories offer different models for how liberal and relational orders should interact, one stressing the logic of reciprocal debt and interdependence and the other emphasizing the gift as a dematerialized symbol of commitment to civic order. Yet each variant implicates the other, and hence the status of the Indigenous subject as a citizen of a postcolonial nation remains fundamentally ambiguous. Stories of a new type of compensation in national newspapers reveal that PNG society and its media continue to work through the dilemmas of ethnographic citizenship in ever newer ways.

Abstract:As a site of performance, the aloha shirt has been adopted by different social groups and functions as a contested site of meaning and memory, concealing and calling out histories of racial hierarchy, white supremacy, and conquest. This article uses the boogaloo movement's "aloha shirt uniform" as an opportunity to reengage with a discussion about the role the attire plays in popular imagination. An analysis of different uses of aloha wear by Hawaiians, Hawai'i residents, and boogaloo members demonstrates that location and context impact the shirt's distinct visibility and dictate how its contested meanings are understood. It also contends that the distinction between the aloha shirt as a signifier of a multicultural tropical paradise and the boogaloo movement's use of it as a symbol of white nationalism is not as disconnected as some make it out to be.

Abstract:Pacific Island peoples have a long-standing history in Australia, but throughout that history, their experiences on arrival have unfortunately been marked by racism and prejudice. The racism is extensive, ranging from negative stereotypes to official government statements. In this essay, we explore previous research and our own lived experiences to disrupt and dismantle these narratives. Through this process, we have discovered a shared resilience and pride among Pacific Island peoples in Australia, as evident in their use of cultural imagery, family, and knowledge to guide their individual and collective journeys. In this essay, we provide a strengths-based perspective on Pacific Islanders and their cultures in hopes of informing both local and national government policies. Our voices—as two Pacific Island academics raised in Australia—unite to tell our story.
