Item type: Item , Pentagon stalks Micronesia: strategic interests vs. self-determination(1982) Johnson, GiffIf forward military bases are the achilles heel of United States foreign policy, then the Micronesian islands are destined to be a region of increasing struggle in the 1980's and 1990's. With major U.S. military installations in Guam and the Marshall Is1ands, and bases planned for Tinian, other parts of the Mariana Islands and Palau, Micronesia may become one of the most densely militarized regions in the Pacific. These bases, strategically located along the Asian periphery, will provide the U.S. with staging grounds for future intervention into Asia. But stepped up campaigns by Micronesians and other Pacific Islanders in support of nuclear free zones and demilitarization are putting U.S. military plans in jeopardy.Item type: Item , Pacific bulletin - volume 3, number 7(1984-03) Pacific Concerns Resource CenterItem type: Item , Pacific bulletin - volume 3, number 6(Pacific Concerns Resource Center, 1984-01) Pacific Concerns Resource CenterItem type: Item , Pacific bulletin - volume 4, number 5 & 6(1984-10) Pacific Concerns Resource CenterItem type: Item , Pacific bulletin - volume 4, number 2(1984-07) Pacific Concerns Resource CenterItem type: Item , Pacific bulletin - volume 5, number 1(Pacific Concerns Resource Center, 1985-02) Pacific Concerns Resource CenterItem type: Item , Pacific bulletin - volume 4, number 3 & 4(Pacific Concerns Resource Center, 1984-08) Pacific Concerns Resource CenterItem type: Item , Enewetak fact book : a resume of pre-cleanup information(United States Department of Engery, Nevada Operations Office, Las Vegas Nevada, 1982) Bliss, Wayne; United States Department of Energy; Environmental Monitoring Systems Laboratory (Las Vegas, Nev.); United States Environmental Protection AgencyItem type: Item , Palau : self-determination vs. U.S. military plans(Honolulu, Hawaii : Micronesia Support Committee, 1983)Includes history of Palau's vote to ban nuclear weapons and nuclear waste.Item type: Item , Micronesia Support Committee bulletin(Honolulu, Hawaii : The Committee, 1976-1983, 1982)Includes various articles on nuclear testing, nuclear fallout and nuclear waste storage in Micronesia.Item type: Item , From trusteeship to ... ? : Micronesia and its future, 2nd ed.([Honolulu, Hawaii] : Micronesia Support Committee : Pacific Concerns Resource Center, 1982)"Federated States of Micronesia and the Marshall Islands face a referendum on the Compact, what choices are available to them?

They came from British, French and American- dominated territories, newly independent countries, and independent countries committed to the 'nuclear umbrella' of the U. S. by military alliances. They shared Case Studies of island groups and reports of present installations and imminent military and nuclear expansion of the powers which manipulate and control the Pacific." quoted from introduction.
