With an emphasis on the discussion of governance and local community involvement in development processes, this paper uses a systematic literature review combined with bibliometric analysis to identify and explore the trajectories of key themes in research in the field of alternative governance of small island ecotourism from 1980-2021. Initially, we identified 572 papers that matched the selection criteria. After filtering, we found 22 articles that revolved around the governance of (community-based) ecotourism on small islands. Building on the review, we then examined the potential theoretical contributions to guide future research regarding the building of bottom-linked socially innovative governance of ecotourism on small islands in general, and the role of participation, community capacity building, (socio-political) emancipation and (political) bargaining power in particular.","PeriodicalId":51674,"journal":{"name":"Island Studies Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42016028","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given the rise in real estate demand under such contexts, this must have entailed a rise in land demand, and subsequently, land prices could have been affected. This study assesses if the rise in land demand caused by domestic and/or foreign land demand has been influencing residential land prices in Mauritius. To undertake the research, annual data was collected from the year 2000 to 2019 and a structural time series approach was used. It was found that unobserved components, namely the trend level and slope, as well as the cycles were significant in explaining land prices. It was concluded that fluctuations in land prices are significantly explained through latent variables, such as regulations in the land market, fiscal policies concerning mortgage loans, and speculative land buying among others. It was also found that foreign real estate investment (FREI) used as a measure of foreign land demand did not significantly influence land prices. To further probe the factors affecting land prices in Mauritius, domestic demand-side factors were considered and it was found that income, population, unemployment, and real construction costs were significant in explaining land prices.","PeriodicalId":51674,"journal":{"name":"Island Studies Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46510432","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This conceptualization of bribery rests upon recent value negotiations concerning the moral economy of corruption within the context of the ‘China threat’ debate in Oceania. A decolonial methodology is necessary to prevent this superimposition of colonial interests upon indigenous views in journalistic reports, social media outlets, and academic publications. It is, therefore, necessary to interrogate the position from which reporters, journalists, and scholars speak or write about corruption in diplomatic relations in an increasingly Sinicized Pacific. This approach appreciates localized forms of theorizing indigenous ideas about appropriate economic behaviors in the context of new geopolitical relations. In the absence of a decolonial methodology, such ideas might become invisible, along with the intrinsic features of new Sino-Pacific relations.","PeriodicalId":51674,"journal":{"name":"Island Studies Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43485571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Little was known of this region until a few decades ago. The first surveys were carried out in the 1970s and were resumed by the present author in the 2010s. They have shown the great potential of the area for the interpretation of sea-level rise and its related human settlement between the beginning of the Holocene and the Hellenistic period. In this territory, several limestone terraces rise from the alluvial plain of the River Indus, which were islands in prehistoric and early historic times. Many archaeological artefacts, along with marine and mangrove shells, have been recovered from their surface and radiocarbon dated. These discoveries help us to follow the events that took place in the region in well-defined periods and interpret some aspects of the prehistoric coastal settlement in relation to the advance of the Indus Fan and the retreat of the Arabian Sea. The following questions are addressed in this paper: who settled these islands, when and why? During which prehistoric periods were mangrove and marine environments exploited? And what were the cultural characteristics of the communities that seasonally or permanently settled some of the present ‘rocky outcrops’?","PeriodicalId":51674,"journal":{"name":"Island Studies Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41672157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The concepts of police use of excessive force and police brutality are often used synonymously. However, they can be distinguished by examining police brutality through an island studies lens. Hence this study aims to improve how police brutality can be understood and distinguished from police use of excessive force by applying an island studies theoretical framework. Additionally, because there is a dearth of academic literature on how colonialism has influenced police brutality in contemporary TT, and because little is known about how victims experience police brutality, the study also addresses those gaps. The current study bridges these gaps by conducting a phenomenological study to generate an understanding of the lived experiences of victims of police use of excessive force in low-income communities in Trinidad. Based on the analysis of the data collected from in-depth interviews with 18 research participants, six themes emerged. The findings were then analyzed through the lens of island studies and the implications of those findings were discussed. The study ends by making several recommendations.","PeriodicalId":51674,"journal":{"name":"Island Studies Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45099817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, available research on policing and justice systems in island contexts is usually conducted by non-island scholars using a limited frame of reference on ‘islandness’. Instructively, conventional wisdom suggest that it is academically imprecise and improper to universalise scholarship from countries with large land masses onto islands with unique topographies and challenges. This thematic section, highlights the inherent qualities of policing and justice systems in island communities by way of engagement with the existing body of island and ocean studies literature as well as by way of theoretically informed and methodologically appropriate research conducted by a judicial mix of early, mid- and established career scholars. The authors of the article in this thematic section present their scholarly efforts from diverse perspectives and contributes to decolonization efforts in island studies. Ultimately, the articles advance the call for a move away from colonial epistemology and hegemony in knowledge production and transference to situating island scholars and scholarship within island studies. In sum, this thematic section contributes to the emergent body of literature on both policing and the justice systems and studies on island communities.","PeriodicalId":51674,"journal":{"name":"Island Studies Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44746921","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It aims to show how SIDS’ engagement in the Security Council debate can provide an innovative approach to explain and overcome some of the conceptual and policy challenges for climate securitisation at the international level. Big and small actors in the climate security debate have formed multiple perceptions about threats and solutions concerning climate security. Military-based framings of security have taken a dominant place in the Security Council debate; this has created challenges for security actors seeking to include multiple threat factors related to climate change in the security space. SIDS have illustrated the challenges in highlighting the diverse range of vulnerabilities, impacts, and solutions uniquely inherent to many security speakers and audiences involved in the climate security debate. Using a qualitative analysis of constructivist literature on securitisation, this article develops a conceptual framework to help incorporate SIDS’ broader aspects of climate security into the securitising move at the international level. It asserts that SIDS make a compelling case to explain the impacts of multilevel threat factors and security provisions on climate security formation.","PeriodicalId":51674,"journal":{"name":"Island Studies Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48734589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
