It is with great pleasure that the National Park Service presents this comprehensive management plan. It is based on specialized input and community consultation and will serve as the guide for the management of the Ala Kahakai National Historic Trail for the next fi fteen years. This document is more than just a ‘plan’. It refl ects the collective vision and dreams of the hundreds of individuals who took part in the consultations or who shared their personal feelings and thoughts about this amazing and culturally signifi cant trail. Their thoughts and stories have provided meaningful insights that guided us to select the descendant-led, community-based alternative to trail management referred to in the plan as the Ahupua‘a Trails System. In many respects, it is a model plan and an example of collaboration since the now adopted Ahupua‘a Trails System alternative was created in direct response to the concerns and issues identifi ed through a rigorous public planning process. It is a model for Hawaii in that it will bring together county, state, federal agencies, private landowners and businesses, as well as community groups in partnership to manage shoreline trails and their associated cultural and natural resources. Since the Ala Kahakai National Historic Tail was designated in 2000, the National Park Service has learned much about how different historic and cultural trails are in that they have been in continuous use since the arrival of the fi rst Polynesians to the Hawaiian Islands. We understand how important trails are to Hawaiian people and to others whose ancestors arrived in historic times. Trails have always contributed to building and connecting communities and in the management of an abundant economy able to sustain thousands of islanders with no dependency on off-shore sources. The hundreds of stories that we have heard during the planning process have been truly remarkable and inspirational, and I am certain that this document captures both the local and national signifi cance of the trail. I am equally confi dent that the management strategy we have developed through this collaborative effort can achieve our long term goals to provide a means to integrate modern management sciences into traditional knowledge and practices and to provide a way for local communities to be engaged in the preservation and management of their ancient and historical trails and routes. I am often asked, “How can we accomplish all of the things that are in the comprehensive management plan?” The simple answer is that we must all continue to remain engaged with each other and dedicate the time and effort it will take. Through groups such as the Ala Kahakai Trail Association and Ē Mau Na Ala Hele, the public and private sectors, and other partners, it is possible to accomplish together what is not possible alone. It is through the power of deep-rooted, personal commitments of individuals and families that we will continue the forward movement to fulfi ll their “kuleana”—their ancestral responsibility—to care for the trails and the places along the trail in a manner that is inclusive of all members of our island communities. I want to sincerely thank each of you for sharing your time, your stories and for working with us and teaching us that, “the trails are the people and the people are the trails”. I look forward to seeing you soon and implementing this important plan together. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or comments.

  • AMERICA's ANNEXATION of HAWAII by BECKY L. BRUCE
    A LUSCIOUS FRUIT: AMERICA’S ANNEXATION OF HAWAII by BECKY L. BRUCE HOWARD JONES, COMMITTEE CHAIR JOSEPH A. FRY KARI FREDERICKSON LISA LIDQUIST-DORR STEVEN BUNKER A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2012 Copyright Becky L. Bruce 2012 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This dissertation argues that the annexation of Hawaii was not the result of an aggressive move by the United States to gain coaling stations or foreign markets, nor was it a means of preempting other foreign nations from acquiring the island or mending a psychic wound in the United States. Rather, the acquisition was the result of a seventy-year relationship brokered by Americans living on the islands and entered into by two nations attempting to find their place in the international system. Foreign policy decisions by both nations led to an increasingly dependent relationship linking Hawaii’s stability to the U.S. economy and the United States’ world power status to its access to Hawaiian ports. Analysis of this seventy-year relationship changed over time as the two nations evolved within the world system. In an attempt to maintain independence, the Hawaiian monarchy had introduced a westernized political and economic system to the islands to gain international recognition as a nation-state. This new system created a highly partisan atmosphere between natives and foreign residents who overthrew the monarchy to preserve their personal status against a rising native political challenge. These men then applied for annexation to the United States, forcing Washington to confront the final obstacle in its rise to first-tier status: its own reluctance to assume the burdens and responsibilities of an imperial policy abroad.

  • The Dread Taboo, Human Sacrifice, and Pearl Harbor
    The Dread Taboo, Human Sacrifice, and Pearl Harbor RDKHennan The word taboo, or tabu, is well known to everyone, but it is especially interesting that it is one of but two or possibly three words from the Polynesian language to have been adopted by the English-speaking world. While the original meaning of the taboo was "Sacred" or "Set apart," usage has given it a decidedly secular meaning, and it has become a part of everyday speech all over the world. In the Hawaiian lan­ guage the word is "kapu," and in Honolulu we often see a sign on a newly planted lawn or in a park that reads, not, "Keep off the Grass," but, "Kapu." And to understand the history and character of the Hawaiian people, and be able to interpret many things in our modern life in these islands, one must have some knowledge of the story of the taboo in Hawaii. ANTOINETTE WITHINGTON, "The Dread Taboo," in Hawaiian Tapestry Captain Cook's arrival in the Hawaiian Islands signaled more than just the arrival of western geographical and scientific order; it was the arrival of British social and political order, of British law and order as well. From Cook onward, westerners coming to the islands used their own social­ civil codes as a basis to judge, interpret, describe, and almost uniformly condemn Hawaiian social and civil codes. With this condemnation, west­ erners justified the imposition of their own order on the Hawaiians, lead­ ing to a justification of colonialism and the loss of land and power for the indigenous peoples.

The statements contained within the summarized recommendations and before the indicated FAA approval, disapproval, or other determination do not represent the opinions or decisions of the FAA.
