Poblete explains how U.S. federal fishing programs in the post-World War II period encouraged labor based out of American Sa?moa to catch and can one-third of all tuna for United States consumption until 2009. Labeled "Made in the USA," this commodity was sometimes caught by non-U.S. regulated ships, produced under labor standards far below continental U.S. minimum wage and maximum work hours, entered U.S. jurisdiction tax free, and was sometimes caught by non-U.S. regulated ships. The second half of the book explores the tensions between indigenous and U.S. federal government environmental goals and ecology programs. Whether creating the largest National Marine Sanctuary under U.S. jurisdiction or collecting basic data on local fishing, initiatives that balanced western-based and native expectations for respectful community relationships and appropriate government programs fared better than those that did not acknowledge the positionality of all groups involved. Balancing the Tides demonstrates how western-style economics, policymaking, and knowledge building imposed by the U.S. federal government have been infused into the daily lives of American Sa?moans. American colonial efforts to protect natural resources intersect with indigenous insistence on adhering to customary principles of respect, reciprocity, and native rights in complicated ways. Experiences and lessons learned from these case studies provide insight into other tensions between colonial governments and indigenous peoples engaging in environmental and marine-based policymaking across the Pacific and the globe. Poblete's study connects the U.S.-American Sa?moa colonial relationship to global overfishing, world consumption patterns, the for-profit fishing industry, international environmental movements and studies, as well as native experiences and indigenous rights"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aTuna canning industry$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01158821 606 $aMarine resources$xManagement$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01009897 606 $aFishery policy$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00926264 606 $aFishery management$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00926228 606 $aMarine resources$zAmerican Samoa$xManagement 606 $aTuna canning industry$zAmerican Samoa 606 $aFishery policy$zAmerican Samoa 606 $aFishery management$zAmerican Samoa 607 $aAmerican Samoa$2fast 610 $aAustralasian & Pacific history 610 $aPolitics & government 610 $aIndigenous peoples 610 $aJurisprudence & general issues 610 $aAgriculture, agribusiness & food production industries 610 $aMicroeconomics 610 $aInternational economics 615 0$aTuna canning industry. 615 0$aMarine resources$xManagement. 615 0$aFishery policy. 615 0$aFishery management. 615 0$aMarine resources$xManagement. 615 0$aTuna canning industry 615 0$aFishery policy 615 0$aFishery management 676 $a338.3/727099613 700 $aPoblete$b JoAnna$f1974-$0901358 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910360253903321 996 $aBalancing the Tides$92252774 997 $aUNINA
