Abstract:

À la suite d'une large présentation du système social, économique, politique et religieux des îles Tonga, la thèse est axée sur l'étude de l'exploitation traditionnelle des ressources halieutiques tant dans ses aspects pratiques que rituels. L’étude des techniques de pêche liées à l'imaginaire montre que certaines espèces ichtyologiques, en certains lieux de l'archipel, sont traitées comme des partenaires sociaux et assimilées à des chefs ou à des dieux. Il s'agit là d'un fait social total mettant en jeu les institutions économiques, sociales et religieuses de la société tongienne. Les rituels

Abstract:

This thesis is written in the format of a three act play. The author has elected this structure to frame the ethnographic data and analysis because it seemed befitting for telling my own life story alongside the memories of three generations of my matrilateral and patrilateral Tongan family residing in Auckland New Zealand. Thus, actors and scenes play out the thesis storyline in three parts where each act is titled Prologue, Dialogue and Epilogue. The Prologue, part one of this three act play, is three chapters which sets in motion the main actors - the research participants, and the scenes -

Abstract:

Cette étude d'anthropologie propose d'appréhender l'ensemble des relations unissant les gens de Niuafo'ou (Tonga, Polynésie Occidentale) à leur île-volcan. La démarche théorique adoptée consiste à ne pas présupposer que l'homme se distingue ontologiquement des autres composants de l'environnement. Au quotidien, le volcan représente une terre natale, ancestrale et pourvoyeuse de ressources investie de sens social. La mémoire et l'expérience de ses éruptions ont abouti à l'élaboration de représentations et de savoirs indigènes qui sont au fondement de la création de moyens symboliques ou pratiqu

Abstract:

This study has the principle goal of showing that Christian institutions and practices are powerful forces for social management within the Tongan community, and, more precisely, that congregations are a primary means for facilitating social control, cooperation, competition, and conflict management. My ethnographic research, including discourse analysis, reveals the distinct nature of conflict management in a range of situations within the congregation and community. Comparison of a number of congregations of different denominational affiliation exposes the factionalization as well as the uni

Comme d'autres phénomènes liés à la mondialisation, les pratiques touristiques sont ainsi traversées de tendances contradictoires, entre uniformisation et particularisation culturelle.

Abstract:

Youth in Tonga occupy a particularly fraught social position due to their symbolic status as both the "purveyors of global modernity" and "the future of the nation and tradition." This precarious standing provides the basis for my analysis of the ways in which youth engage in the negotiation of moral frameworks in everyday life. I employ both sociocultural and linguistic anthropological methods and theory to examine how morality is construed across multiple domains of daily life, including language, aesthetic self-fashioning, and social action.

Abstract:

The Louisville Ridge (LRSC) is an ~4000 km-long SW Pacific seamount chain currently being subducted at the Tonga-Kermadec Trench (TKT). Both the trend of the LRSC and the subduction of the Pacific plate are oblique to the trench, resulting in southward migration of the intersection point at a rate of 120-180 mm yr-1, and producing significant along-strike variation in forearc structure and seismicity. The LRSC-TKT intersection was investigated by a multi-disciplinary geophysical experiment aboard the R/V Sonne in 2011, acquiring multichannel and wide-angle seismic, gravity, and bathymetry data

Subducting plate characteristics are recorded as temporal variations in overriding plate deformation. Downgoing bathymetric anomalies superimpose enhanced tectonic erosion on pre-existing forearc crustal and sedimentary structural variations. Existing models of inherited forearc crustal structure along the Tonga-Kermadec subduction system are simplistic and neglect along-strike variability, which has resulted in a limited understanding of margin evolution and Louisville Ridge seamount chain (LRSC) subduction.

This dissertation examines the impact of ‘Tongan culture’ as represented by those with power in the Free Wesleyan Church of Tonga (FWC). The word “free” in the name of a church usually denotes the desire to be independent of the State or any other outside control but in this context it was often the contrary. From the outset of the Wesleyan Mission in 1826, the chiefs who embodied and controlled Tonga, welcomed the early European explorers yet with the twin underlying aims of gaining benefits while simultaneously maintaining their supremacy.

Abstract:

This paper aims to explore a Tongan notion of development –'fakalakalaka' – in light of Western notions of development. Two case studies of international development aid schemes illustrate the impact of Tongan development ideas in practice. Drawing on a number of ethnographers' work on Tonga, 'fakalakalaka' appears broader than the Western notion of development. The latter is characterised by influential ideals of controllability and industrialisation. The notion of development among Tongans, on the other hand, tends to be directed by an underlying persistence that, for instance, reflects Ton

The largest earthquakes occur along the subduction thrust interface known as the seismogenic zone. Until recently, erosive margins like Tonga and Honshu have been thought to be unable to support earthquakes with magnitudes higher than 8.5. However, Mw 9, 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake in Honshu requires a reevaluation of this notion. The seismic potential of Tonga is likely affected by the vertical spatial extent of the up-dip and down-dip limits, which confines the seismogenic zone. The larger the area of the seismogenic zone, the higher the potential for larger earthquakes. Some models suggest t
