Ulithi Atoll, Micronesia

About this book

Ulithi Atoll, Micronesia draws together rich and varied sources of information on this important Pacific Island community. Representing multi-disciplinary research and literary traditions, the 12 authors report on various aspects of life, culture, economics, human development, island challenges, and the ecology of Ulithi. Experiences of Ulithians are traced through successive periods of competitive explorers and traders; the Spanish, German, Japanese, and US colonial periods; and finally, Ulithi's emergence into its self-governing status within Yap State of the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM). Each author of this book has had significant experience within Ulithi Atoll and among Ulithian people. Three of the writers– Eulalia Harui-Walsh, Joliene Hasugulayag, and Joshua Walsh– bring their own indigenous experiences and wisdom to their chapters. Each chapter is enriched by information about or provided by contemporary Ulithians.
