Abstract

The brilliant series of Waigani seminars ran for two decades spanning the pre and post-independence periods Ppapua New Guinea, but this paper argues that the seminars, and other symposia, conferences, workshops and forums in the Pacific, have remained an academic exrecise and not achieved real outcomes.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.
