All the other Polynesian islands in the Pacific were populated by the same stock of farming Polynesian people.

But the islands all have different geographies, sizes, amounts of isolation, and food and mineral resources.

Therefore, the societies that developed had varied population sizes, levels of organization, economies, and social complexity as a function of differing geography.

How does Jared diamond challenges the transition from hunter gatherers to farming?

Jared Diamond challenges the idea that the transition from hunter-gatherer societies to farming was a straightforward progression leading to a more advanced civilization. He highlights the negative consequences of agriculture, such as increased social inequality, disease, and environmental degradation, suggesting that the transition was not uniformly positive for all societies. Diamond argues that some hunter-gatherer societies may have been better off before adopting agriculture.


What are the other commonly exposed answers to yali's question and how does Jared Diamond address and refute each of them?

Other commonly accepted answers to "Yali's question" are either "assumed biological differences"(Diamond 18), "changes in geographical climate" (Diamond 22), or "European guns, infectious diseases, steel tools and manufactured products"(Diamond 23). Diamond writes off the explanation of assumed biological differences as an underlying feeling of genetic superiority by European peoples. Diamond says that explanation of changes in geographical climate, too, fails to survive scrutiny because "…complex irrigation systems did not accompany the rise of centralized bureaucracies but followed after a considerable lag." (Diamond 23). Diamond says that the explanation about guns germs and steel is on the right track but incomplete because it only offers a proximate explanation. You're welcome freshmen
