A spring course at UH-Manoa that folks might be interested in:

HWST 691
Seminar on the History of Hawaiian Kingdom Law
Kanalu Young, Graduate Chair/Associate Professor
Kamakakūokalani Center for Hawaiian Studies 209C
Seminar will meet on Thursdays -- 4:30 p.m.-7 p.m.
Contact: kanalu72 @ aol.com or 973-0985

The primary focus of the seminar is domestic and international law as it relates to the history of the Hawaiian Kingdom. The routine method applied is systematic evaluation of primary sources through writing and discussion using advanced critical thinking skills. Also, discussions germane to the claim of Hawaiian State continuity asserted by the Acting Council of Regency on behalf of the Hawaiian Kingdom, 1999-2001 (Larsen Case) will be examined in detail. The Permanent Court of Arbitration's various rulings will be used as a contemporary context from which to cover important law and society issues. Some of these include the meaning of supreme authority, jurisdiction, occupation, and public education rooted in tenets of American hegemony and subsequent assimilation policies here, 1898-2006.
