Aloha Betrayed by Noenoe K. Silva Pdf

In 1897, as a white oligarchy made plans to allow the United States to annex Hawai'i, native Hawaiians organized a massive petition drive to protest. Ninety-five percent of the native population signed the petition, causing the annexation treaty to fail in the U.S. Senate. This event was unknown to many contemporary Hawaiians until Noenoe K. Silva rediscovered the petition in the process of researching this book. With few exceptions, histories of Hawai'i have been based exclusively on English-language sources. They have not taken into account the thousands of pages of newspapers, books, and letters written in the mother tongue of native Hawaiians. By rigorously analyzing many of these documents, Silva fills a crucial gap in the historical record. In so doing, she refutes the long-held idea that native Hawaiians passively accepted the erosion of their culture and loss of their nation, showing that they actively resisted political, economic, linguistic, and cultural domination. Drawing on Hawaiian-language texts, primarily newspapers produced in the nineteenth century and early twentieth, Silva demonstrates that print media was central to social communication, political organizing, and the perpetuation of Hawaiian language and culture. A powerful critique of colonial historiography, Aloha Betrayed provides a much-needed history of native Hawaiian resistance to American imperialism.

The Hawaiian Kingdom—Volume 2 by Ralph S. Kuykendall Pdf

The colorful history of the Hawaiian Islands, since their discovery in 1778 by the great British navigator Captain James Cook, falls naturally into three periods. During the first, Hawaii was a monarchy ruled by native kings and queens. Then came the perilous transition period when new leaders, after failing to secure annexation to the United States, set up a miniature republic. The third period began in 1898 when Hawaii by annexation became American territory. The Hawaiian Kingdom, by Ralph S. Kuykendall, is the detailed story of the island monarchy. In the first volume, "Foundation and Transformation," the author gives a brief sketch of old Hawaii before the coming of the Europeans, based on the known and accepted accounts of this early period. He then shows how the arrival of sea rovers, traders, soldiers of forture, whalers, scoundrels, missionaries, and statesmen transformed the native kingdom, and how the foundations of modern Hawaii were laid. In the second volume, "Twenty Critical Years," the author deals with the middle period of the kingdom's history, when Hawaii was trying to insure her independence while world powers maneuvered for dominance in the Pacific. It was an important period with distinct and well-marked characteristics, but the noteworthy changes and advances which occurred have received less attention from students of history than they deserve. Much of the material is taken from manuscript sources and appears in print for the first time in the second volume. The third and final volume of this distinguished trilogy, "The Kalakaua Dynasty," covers the colorful reign of King Kalakaua, the Merry Monarch, and the brief and tragic rule of his successor, Queen Liliuokalani. This volume is enlivened by such controversial personages as Claus Spreckels, Walter Murray Gibson, and Celso Caesar Moreno. Through it runs the thread of the reciprocity treaty with the United States, its stimulating effect upon the island economy, and the far-reaching consequences of immigration from the Orient to supply plantation labor. The trilogy closes with the events leading to the downfall of the Hawaiian monarchy and the establishment of the Provisional Government in 1893.

Last Among Equals by Roger Bell Pdf

Last Among Equals is the first detailed account of Hawaii's quest for statehood. It is a story of struggle and accommodation, of how Hawaii was gradually absorbed into the politcal, economic, and ideological structures of American life. It also recounts the complex process that came into play when the states of the Union were confronted with the difficulty of granting admission to a non-contiguous territory with an overwhelmingly non-Caucasian population. More than any previous study of modern Hawaii, this book explains why Hawaii's legitimate claims to equality and autonomy as a state were frustrated for more than half a century. Last Among Equals is sure to remain a standard reference for modern Hawaiian and American political historians. As important, it will require a reevaluation of two commonly held myths: that of racial harmony in Hawaii and that of automatic equality under the Constitution of the United States.

Overthrow by Stephen Kinzer Pdf

Stephen Kinzer's Overthrow provides a fast-paced narrative history of the coups, revolutions, and invasions by which the United States has toppled fourteen foreign governments -- not always to its own benefit "Regime change" did not begin with the administration of George W. Bush, but has been an integral part of U.S. foreign policy for more than one hundred years. Starting with the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy in 1893 and continuing through the Spanish-American War and the Cold War and into our own time, the United States has not hesitated to overthrow governments that stood in the way of its political and economic goals. The invasion of Iraq in 2003 is the latest, though perhaps not the last, example of the dangers inherent in these operations. In Overthrow, Stephen Kinzer tells the stories of the audacious politicians, spies, military commanders, and business executives who took it upon themselves to depose monarchs, presidents, and prime ministers. He also shows that the U.S. government has often pursued these operations without understanding the countries involved; as a result, many of them have had disastrous long-term consequences. In a compelling and provocative history that takes readers to fourteen countries, including Cuba, Iran, South Vietnam, Chile, and Iraq, Kinzer surveys modern American history from a new and often surprising perspective. "Detailed, passionate and convincing . . . [with] the pace and grip of a good thriller." -- Anatol Lieven, The New York Times Book Review

The Hawaiian Republic (1894-98) by William Adam Russ Pdf

"In this second volume of his study, William Adam Russ, Jr. follows up on the story of the turn-of-the-century revolution that abrogated the monarchy and ended the sovereignty of the Kingdom of the Hawaiian Islands. The Hawaiian Republic (1894-98) chronicles how the Hawaiian government leaders had to establish and preserve a stable nation with themselves in power while representing only a small minority of the citizenry - and at the same time maintain a semblance of democratic principles to convince the United States Congress and the American people that Hawaii was worthy of joining the Union." "In January of 1893 a small group of businessmen primarily of American background launched a revolution in the Hawaiian Kingdom. Their objective was to abrogate monarchy, declare a provisional government, and seek annexation to the United States. They ultimately succeeded in the first two objectives but failed in the third." "In his earlier study, The Hawaiian Revolution (1893-94), Russ made it clear that annexation to the United States, rather than the establishment of an independent state, was the primary aim of the revolutionists. Their failure to achieve annexation from the Cleveland administration forced the leadership to form a permanent government until union could be reached." "In the present study, Russ discusses the problems faced by the revolutionary Hawaiian government leading up to annexation. While most of the native Hawaiians and others refused to support or cooperate with that government, the government had to appear to be a popular institution with the citizenry in order to appeal to the Americans. To make matters worse, the population included a large majority of immigrants who were not allowed to participate in civic affairs - and at the same time Japan was making demands on the government to give rights to Japanese immigrants equal to all other foreigners on the Islands." "This work on the Hawaiian Republic is unique as there are no comparable detailed accounts of the period in Hawaii's political history and in the history of the relations between the Islands and the United States. The author uses sources rich in detailed information on the period as it was viewed from the leading players in Honolulu and Washington and in newspapers in Honolulu, New York, and San Francisco. His use of government documents of the Republic and the United States covers the official approach to policies, giving readers the substance of the attitudes, beliefs, and ideas of the leaders so quoted. For this reason The Hawaiian Republic (1894-98) remains a valuable asset for those who study Hawaiian history."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
