Pacific Editorial Board

The Pacific Editorial Board recommends books for publication by ANU Press in two series: the Pacific Series, and the Pacific Affairs Series. Board publications embrace a wide range of Pacific scholarship from history to biography, anthropology, contemporary politics, literature and theory. Among our recent publications have been a history of British nuclear tests in the Pacific Islands, a collection on Pacific migration, a Solomon Islander’s perspective on World War II in her country, a history of the transition of Hawai’i from chiefly kingdoms to a state in the late eighteenth century, and an examination of the mutiny on the Bounty in literature, Polynesian material culture and film.
