Sinopsis

"Western Samoa" explores the captivating story of this Pacific island nation, examining its transformation from a pre-colonial society through German and New Zealand administrations to its hard-won independence. The book illuminates Samoa's nation-building journey, focusing on the influences of colonialism, decolonization, and the forging of a sovereign nation.

 
Did you know that the Mau movement, a powerful Samoan independence movement, played a crucial role in challenging colonial rule? Or that the drafting of a constitution and the establishment of a parliamentary democracy marked a pivotal moment in Samoa's path to self-determination? This historical narrative showcases the agency of the Samoan people in shaping their own destiny, challenging simplistic views of colonial oppression.

 
Utilizing primary sources like colonial archives and oral histories, the book adopts a multi-faceted approach, blending historical analysis with insights from anthropology and political science. From examining German economic policies to analyzing New Zealand's governance approach, the book progresses chronologically, providing a nuanced and comprehensive view of Samoan history. It also connects Samoa's historical journey to broader themes in world history.

    On 25 December 1943 the German battlecruiser Scharnhorst slipped out Altenfjord in Norway to attack Arctic convoy JW55B which was carrying vital war supplies to the Soviet Union. But British naval intelligence knew of the Scharnhorst's mission before she sailed and the vulnerable convoy was protected by a large Royal Naval force including the battleship Duke of York. In effect the Scharnhorst was sailing into a trap.

    While there are plenty of books by men, for men, on the topic of “Christian masculinity,” these books generally fail to address men’s propensities for violence and the traditional inequity between men and women, often endorsing inequity and sanctioning aggressive behavior as an appropriate “manly” response to conflict. Peaceful at Heart cuts through this conversation by offering a uniquely Anabaptist Christian perspective on masculinity. The vision of masculinity presented in this book is more peaceful, just, caring, life-giving for men, and more sensitive to women and children than both traditional images of masculinity and the hypermasculine images promoted by contemporary popular culture and wider evangelical Christianity. Peaceful at Heart addresses men and masculinity using Anabaptist theological themes of discipleship, community, and peace. As a collaborative project by men, for men, this book demonstrates through personal narratives, theological reflection, and practical guidance the importance of collective discernment, accountability, and mutual encouragement regarding how to live as a peaceful man in a violent world.
