岛屿太平洋①环境史研究概述 [内容提要]岛屿太平洋环境史尚处初创阶段。相关研究主要从西方“他者”研究、殖民扩张需求，及二战后本土学者对西方“发展战略”反思的知识与现实基础中产生而来。20世纪90年代后，西方学者逐渐摆脱“他者研究”倾向。随着二战后，太平洋研究机构的建立，本土学者异军突起，在发觉自身历史独特性的同时，深刻反思西方“进步观念”、“发展战略”为岛屿未来的可持续发展提供借鉴。然而，初创中的研究仍存在“零散混乱”、欠缺对现实社会环境不公正的关注等问题。综上，未来的岛屿太平洋环境史有必要向中观综合区域性研究发展。 [关键词]岛屿太平洋 波利尼西亚 环境史学史 区域研究 本土研究 一、岛屿环境史研究的兴起 著名环境史学家约翰·麦克尼尔，在2001年出版的《太平洋世界环境史》论文集中曾用“正在形成中的领域”来形容当前的太平洋环境史研究。他亦坦诚指出：“当前，太平洋区域环境史其实并没有真正形成。”[1]( pxiii)尽管，其所谓“太平洋区域”是指包含东亚、澳洲、北美等更为广阔的区域，但仅就小范围的岛屿太平洋区域来说，能将环境史研究与日益博兴的太平洋区域研究相结合的岛屿太平洋环境史尚在草创之中。

She writes again, “The confluence of all these, coupled with the fear and hysteria exacerbated by severe United States losses in the Pacific war, eventually combined to make the evacuation a tragic reality for us.” This was a horrible event for the Japanese Americans.

It was projected that “the debris plume likely will reach […] California beaches and the beaches of British Columbia, Alaska, and Baja California within three years” (Eugene, Upton 2014) of the incident. Not surprisingly, three years later the state of the Pacific Ocean is of much more concern to both consumers and fishermen, as more and more fish that are caught off the Pacific Coast in the United States are turning up radioactive
