s:Due to historical reasons and British colonial rule of“divide and rule”,the ethnic conflict be-tween indigenous Fijians and Indo-Fijians has been very sharp,which led to the coup in 1987.In the midst of the reasons,the surge of nationalism after the World War II and the contradictions and conflicts be-tween two major ethnic groups in Fiji was the essential factor.Fiji should abandon the prerogative of indige-nous Fijians and the simple dichotomy,accelerate its democratization,and redefine “Fijians”to ease the political tensions.%由于历史原因和英国殖民统治时期的“分而治之”政策,斐济国内两大种族之间的矛盾和冲突十分尖锐,最终导致了1987年的两次军事政变。个中缘由众多,但在笔者看来,“二战”后民族主义的勃兴以及两大种族之间长期以来的矛盾与冲突,是造成该国政治冲突的根本原因。斐济应摒弃对土著斐济人优越地位的维护,放弃简单的二分法,加快民主进程,重新定义“斐济人”的概念,以缓解政治冲突。
