Description

This course introduces students to concepts, theories, policies, and practices of multilingual language use (spoken and written), supported by multicultural orientations and practices, within the contemporary context of Hawaiʻi as a society with substantial linguistic and cultural diversity, including indigenous populations, homegrown Pidgin speakers, sojourners and tourists, the results of successive waves of migration, colonization, and globalization. Through recognizing Hawaiʻiʻs unique features, the course also locates Hawai’i within a world in which multilingualism and multiculturalism have become (or always were) the norm in many communities.

The course will be of interest to graduate students with professional interests in language, arising from professional schools or areas such as education, law, social work, medicine, or business as well as those primarily interested in languages, multilingualism, multiculturalism, and applied linguistics.

Detailed interaction between Hawaiians and navigators from other countries around the world such as Cook and Vancouver open up an investigation through the reign of Kamehameha I and II. Kamehameha III’s decision to establish a constitutional monarchy, achieve State recognition and develop a modern nation State are examined further through the eighty-eight year period of Hawaiian governance. The course will then examine, through political science and law, the continuity of the Hawaiian State despite the illegal overthrow of its government by the United States on January 17, 1893, and the significance of the Larsen v. Hawaiian Kingdom arbitration held at the Permanent Court of Arbitration, The Hague, Netherlands from 1999-2001.
