Poling -- Conclusion : Political Institutions in the Pacific Islands / Jon Fraenkel. 520 $a "The first edition of Pacific Ways helped to redress this balance by providing the kind of information for the Pacific that is readily available for nations in other parts of the globe: their politics, historical background and colonial experience, constitutional frameworks, political institutions, political parties, elections and electoral systems, and problems and prospects. It covered all regions - Polynesia, Melanesia and Micronesia - and all countries, irrespective of their size or political status. The second edition updates the information on all of the countries and territories in the first edition, and adds two more: West Papua, administered as part of Indonesia, and East Timor/Timor-Leste. Many of the chapters have been written by new authors, providing new perspectives on the Pacific's diverse approaches to the fundamental problems of power and political choice common to all societies"--Publisher information. 651 0 $a Islands of the Pacific $x Politics and government. 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 651 7 $a Pacific Ocean $z Islands of the Pacific. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01244201 700 1 $a Levine, Stephen I., $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80109486 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213022806.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0C5D37BA026811E89DEE1C1997128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
