  • Ho'omalimali and the Succession Model of Political Inheritance In
    Ho'omalimali and the Succession Model of Political Inheritance in Hawai'i: A Study of the Electoral Dominance of Americans of Japanese Ancestry in State and Congressional Politics Skyler Allyn Korgel ANS 678H Departmental Honors in Asian Studies The University of Texas at Austin May 2018 Dr. Chiu-Mi Lai Department of Asian Studies Thesis Supervisor Dr. Patricia Maclachlan Department of Government Second Reader Abstract “Ho’omalimali” and the Succession Model of Political Inheritance in Hawai'i: A Study of the Electoral Dominance of Americans of Japanese Ancestry in State and Congressional Politics Author: Skyler Korgel Thesis Supervisor: Dr. Chiu-Mi Lai Second Reader: Dr. Patricia Maclachlan This thesis seeks to discover the underlying causes and factors for the unique political situation in Hawai'i where a minority demographic has been historically dominant. In researching historical and political contexts, as well as institutional and electoral factors, analysis of all these findings has shown a constructed “succession model” behind the dominance of Americans of Japanese Ancestry (AJA) through the Democratic Party. The thesis also examines the implications of the disrupted and further divisive political climate of the Hawai'i Democratic Party since the death of universally respected and revered Senator Daniel Inouye (1924-2012). Senator Inouye’s death brought to an end a political career that spanned nearly six decades, and commenced a new era for Hawai'i political leadership. Quite possibly, this new era has also fractured the succession model. In a 75% minority state, throughout the past 65 years, Americans of Japanese ancestry have managed to gain a stranglehold over the Hawai'i Democratic Party, and therefore the Hawai’i state government itself.

    NEWS Western Legislative Academy Western Legislative Academy From Campaigning to Governing at WLA 2010 Why is governing so much harder than campaigning? According to Western Legislative Academy faculty member Phil Boyle, it’s because you can campaign on single-value solutions to problems. But in the real world of public decision making, single-value solutions are rare. Once elected, legislators face complicated problems with as many as four core values that must be considered and integrated. • Community is the “we” value that places the good of the whole at the center of policy decisions. • Liberty is the “me” or individual dimension that says personal freedoms and responsibilities Graduation night at WLA 2010 matter most in any solution. • Prosperity is the value that says policies must be market- training was the half-day spent at the U.S. Air Force Academy based to maximize economic gain and standard of living. engaged in personal style assessments and team building. • Equality places fairness, justice and tolerance at the Each year in a highly competitive process, the Western forefront of public policy.
