Examples of the emergence of an “alternative discourse” by Pacific Ilanders on social change would have to include the writing of Samoan novelist Albert Wendt, Tongan sociologist and novelist Epeli Hau'ofa, and Fijian anthropologist Asesela Ravuvu.
This concept is not new to scholars of the “New Pacific History” as represented by K. R. Howe in his insightful book, Where the Waves Fall (1988), Honolulu, HI: University of Hawaii Press.
