内容説明

This text explores the strengths and weaknesses of insularity as a factor which encourages and constrains the development of island societies and economies. It looks at the ambiguities inherent in the concept of insularity and provides a variety of integrated and illustrative case studies. The text also concentrates on methodological issues and introduces the concept of "degrees of insularity" as a means to a better understanding of the phenomena.
