520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "The effects of colonisation and the introduced economy have been profound in terms of social, political and economic consequences. The ways in which the indigenous population have been affected or have reacted to this influence, are considered. One effect of the struggle for and achievement of independence, has been a rise in the expectations of the people in terms of material goods and services. These services, within the inherited economic system and the limitations imposed by the character of small islands, while maintaining a viable economy. The sources of revenue are limited to exported commodities upon which taxation is levied. Imports particularly of food, run at a high level depleting the foreign exchange earnings. There is a common policy of food production for import substitution. Nearly all of the Pacific Island Groups operate on a deficit balance of payments that is covered in part of "invisible" earnings (tourism) and by foreign aid"--Introduction.
