This micro-credential sets out models and examines the experience of the Pacific island economies. It links both models and experience to economic theory. It asks which models do a better job of explaining economic performance in the Pacific, and which provide a better guide to the future. It is designed to be useful both for those with an economics background, and for those without. It should be of interest to those who work or will work on the Pacific, but also for those with an interest in development economics, and its application to this region of the world.
