Abstrakti

The year 2021 saw the open-access republication of Culture and History in the Pacific (ed. Jukka Siikala), an edited volume originally published by the Finnish Anthropological Society. Suomen antropologi: The Journal of the Finnish Anthropological Society marks the occasion with this special book forum. For a number of years, Culture and History in the Pacific was known as a book that was particularly hard to find. Now, 30 years after the original publication, the book is freely accessible with a new contextualizing introduction by Petra Autio (University of Helsinki). But what, if anything, is achieved by republishing this book now?
