Book Synopsis


Trade Review

"This anthology serves as a cornerstone of indigenous anthropological research, reclaiming Pasifika identity not just for the youth of today, but for those of future generations."

* New Zealand Journal of Educational Studies *

"In a field of literature currently so lacking, this book adds valuable nuance and complexity, demonstrating the desire and practices of Pacific and Pasifika youth to positively connect to and represent their cultures."

* Pacific Affairs *

"There are significant highlights to [this] volume. Not least, the number of Pacific and Pasifika authors, whose voices are not always centred in Pacific texts...In a field of literature currently so lacking, this book adds valuable nuance and complexity, demonstrating the desire and practices of Pacific and Pasifika youth to positively connect to and represent their cultures."
