Prince Charles of England, on an open Land Rover, salutes spectators at the Sir Hubert Murray stadium in Port Moresby on September 16, 1975, during the Independence celebrations for Papua New Guinea.

An exchange occasion among the Kawelka at Kuk, early 1980s. The Papua New Guinea flag is being carried in a display on the local ceremonial ground.

These conflicts marked the tensions involved in the painful processes of transition toward political independence. They revealed also some of the basic contradictions implied in these processes, for example the strain between the act of creating larger political units and the incompatibility of these with local allegiances. In the next part of the book we consider these contradictions further.
