Requests:  0 Summary:  "In 2019, Solomon Islands made international headlines when the country severed its decades-old alliance with Taiwan in exchange for a partnership with Beijing. The decision prompted international condemnation and terrified Australian security experts, who feared Australia's historical Pacific advantage would come unstuck. This development is often framed as another example of China's inevitable capture of the region -- but this misrepresents how and why the decision was made, and how Solomon Islanders have skilfully leveraged global angst over China to their own ends. Edward Cavanough explains how the switch played out on the ground and its extraordinary potential consequences. He speaks with the dissidents and politicians who shape Solomon Islands' politics, and to the ordinary people whose lives have been upended by a decision that has changed the country -- and the region -- forever."-- Publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Hawaiian & Pacific H 327.9593 Ca Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library R -- Hawaiian & Pacific H 327.9593 Ca Non Circulating   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 327.9593 Cavanough Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction H 327.9593 Ca Checked out 06/04/2024 Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Hawaiian Nonfiction H 327.9593 Ca Checked out 05/30/2024 Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Bookmobile Floating Collection H 327.9593 Ca Checked In   Add Copy to MyList           Add Copy to MyList
