Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
One of the unique characteristics of life in Tokelau is the strong traditional institutional structure and the many customary practices that people still practice. Gender roles are still strictly followed and, in spite of modern influences and entertainment, tasks and obligations are still organised traditionally. Fishing in particular is still highly influenced by tradition, customary practices, fishing lore and skills. The inati, a communal fishing and distribution practice, is an example of such a system. This fishing ritual, as will be described in detail later, is well known to Tokelauans, even though there is no written rule that defines the activity.
