Cultural Dynamics of Religious Change in Oceania (Verhandelingen van het Koninklijk Instituut voor Taal-, Land- en Volkenkunde)

Developed from papers presented at the first European Colloquium on Pacific Studies this volume addresses the dynamics of contemporary Oceanic religions. In particular, the contributors investigate how indigenous populations have come to terms with the enormous impact of colonization and missionization while maintaining a distinct cultural and religious identity.
