Abstract

Over the last twenty years the Colony of Fiji has probably received more attention from Geographers and workers in closely related disciplines than has any other south Pacific island group, though in view of its status as one of the largest and most populous of these groups, and also of its position on trans-Pacific air and sea routes, this is scarcely surprising. The resultant studies have tended to fall into two classes, of which the larger has been based on intensive studies of one or more small selected areas or communities; these contrast with the numerous works and official surveys in which the emphasis has been on an overall, but necessarily less detailed, view. Of the latter most have been economic or socio-economic in treatment, while in the former, more localised, studies anthropological interests have predominated.
