First, I would like to thank each of my committee members- Eirik Saethre, Geoff White, and Noelani Arista- for consistently finding time and energy to commit to my project. I would like to thank the staff and curators of the Asia Pacific collection at the Hamilton Library for their expertise University of Hawai`i at Mānoa. I would also like to thank my friend and office mate Aashish Hemrajani for consistently providing thought provoking conversation and excellent reading suggestions, both of which have in no small way influenced this thesis. Finally, I would like to extend my greatest gratitude to my parents, whose investment in me over the course this thesis project is nothing short of extraordinary. ii Abstract In 1865, the Hawai`i Board of Health adopted quarantine as the primary means to arrest the spread of leprosy in the Kingdom of Hawai`i. In Practice, preventing infection entailed the dramatic expansion of medical authority during the 19th century and included the establishment of state surveillance networks, the condemnation by physicians of a number of Hawaiian practices thought to spread disease, and the forced internment of mainly culturally Hawaiian individuals.

  • Interrogating Leprosy 'Stigma'
    Lepr Rev (2011) 82, 91–97 EDITORIAL Interrogating leprosy ‘stigma’: why qualitative insights are vital JAMES STAPLES Brunel University, Uxbridge, Middlesex UB8 3PH Accepted for publication 24 April 2011 I was initially in two minds about editing a special issue on ‘stigma’. The term, it seemed to me, was one too often applied uncritically to bodily conditions – especially in relation to leprosy – as a vague gloss for a qualitatively diverse range of negative social reactions and attitudes, as well as a description of how they might be experienced. As such, ‘stigma’ can become a lazy shortcut for the multiple ‘social aspects’ of leprosy, preventing deeper scrutiny of the complex and sometimes contradictory experiences that are characteristic of living with the disease. At the same time, however, devoting a special issue to the topic also offers a valuable opportunity to address precisely those issues: to interrogate how, if at all, ‘stigma’ might remain a conceptually useful notion through which to analyse the experience of those whose lives are touched by leprosy, whether as sufferers, family members or those working in the leprosy field. It also provides a chance to showcase alternative approaches to understanding attitudes towards the disease that go beyond the conventional, taken for granted wisdom which states, a) that leprosy is a uniformly stigmatised disease, and b) that education about its causes and treatments is necessarily the appropriate response to managing that stigma. A critical focus on stigma allows us to ask, for example, questions about the socio-cultural, historical, economic and political contexts in which stigma is produced.

In nessun caso l'Istituto di Pagamento potrà essere considerato responsabile per pretese del Cliente relative ai servizi erogati dai Soggetti Beneficiari dei Bollettini: pertanto, una volta completata l'operazione di pagamento, qualsiasi problematica non inerente alla corretta prestazione del Servizio dovrà essere sottoposta esclusivamente all'attenzione del Soggetto Beneficiario del Bollettino. Hanno efficacia solutoria (pro soluto) i pagamenti di bollettini a favore di Soggetti Beneficiari con i quali l’Istituto di Pagamento ha sottoscritto specifici mandati all’incasso e il cui elenco viene riportato su drop-pay.com – sezione Trasparenza ed esposto presso i luoghi ove è offerto il Servizio. In tutte le altre ipotesi, il Pagamento dei Bollettini deve considerarsi pro solvendo: ciò significa che il pagamento effettuato dal Cliente attraverso il Servizio DropPay non estingue automaticamente il debito nei confronti dei Soggetti Beneficiari dei Bollettini. In questi casi, il pagamento di un bollettino eseguito nel giorno di scadenza espone il Cliente al rischio dell’applicazione di interessi di mora, in quanto i fondi potranno essere accreditati sul conto del Beneficiario il giorno lavorativo successivo.
