  • Emancipation in St. Croix; Its Antecedents and Immediate Aftermath
    N. Hall The victor vanquished: emancipation in St. Croix; its antecedents and immediate aftermath In: New West Indian Guide/ Nieuwe West-Indische Gids 58 (1984), no: 1/2, Leiden, 3-36 This PDF-file was downloaded from http://www.kitlv-journals.nl N. A. T. HALL THE VICTOR VANQUISHED EMANCIPATION IN ST. CROIXJ ITS ANTECEDENTS AND IMMEDIATE AFTERMATH INTRODUCTION The slave uprising of 2-3 July 1848 in St. Croix, Danish West Indies, belongs to that splendidly isolated category of Caribbean slave revolts which succeeded if, that is, one defines success in the narrow sense of the legal termination of servitude. The sequence of events can be briefly rehearsed. On the night of Sunday 2 July, signal fires were lit on the estates of western St. Croix, estate bells began to ring and conch shells blown, and by Monday morning, 3 July, some 8000 slaves had converged in front of Frederiksted fort demanding their freedom. In the early hours of Monday morning, the governor general Peter von Scholten, who had only hours before returned from a visit to neighbouring St. Thomas, sum- moned a meeting of his senior advisers in Christiansted (Bass End), the island's capital. Among them was Lt. Capt. Irminger, commander of the Danish West Indian naval station, who urged the use of force, including bombardment from the sea to disperse the insurgents, and the deployment of a detachment of soldiers and marines from his frigate (f)rnen. Von Scholten kept his own counsels. No troops were despatched along the arterial Centreline road and, although he gave Irminger permission to sail around the coast to beleaguered Frederiksted (West End), he went overland himself and arrived in town sometime around 4 p.m.

    MAPPING THE HAWAIIAN KINGDOM: A COLONIAL VENTURE? Kamanamaikalani Beamer and T. Ka'eo Duarte* I. INTRODUCTION II. THE USE OF "TOOLS OF THE OTHER" III. S.P. KALAMA'S 1938 MAP: ACCULTURATION OR TRANSCULTURATION? IV. POLITICS AND LAND IN THE MID-1800s V. PRINCE LOT KAPUAIWA AND THE BOUNDARY COMMISSION VI. (RE)MAPPING THE HAWAIIAN STATE VII. CONCLUSIONS I. INTRODUCTION The early to mid-1800s was an era of tremendous cultural and socio­ political change for Hawai'i and its native people. A wave of outside influences swept through the islands, inundating the ruling ali'i (chiefs) as well as the maka'ainana (commoners). In addition to many new technologies and materials, this wave introduced ideologies, cultural norms and worldviews foreign to Hawai'i. The establishment of the Kingdom of Hawai'i, with its adoption of and adaptation to "modem" forms of government and policy, represented a fundamental change to Hawaiian society. The ruling ali'i struggled to maintain the sovereignty of their islands in the midst of foreign attempts to gain control over the lands and resources of Hawai'i. Policies implemented during these difficult years may have been a mix of policies that the ali'i were pressured to implement and others ali'i strategically implemented in their attempts to secure their nation's political and cultural future. One of those policies -- the surveying and mapping of Kingdom lands -- not only had political and economic implications, but affected traditional Hawaiian concepts of land di vision and palena (place boundaries). Scholars have suggested that western surveys and maps are tools used to aid "colonizers" in the dispossession of native people from their native lands.

  • Small States and the Challenge of Sovereignty
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by OpenGrey Repository Small States and the Challenge of Sovereignty: Commonwealth Caribbean Offshore Financial Centers and Tax Competition William B. Vlcek Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in International Relations The London School of Economics and Political Science University of London 2006 ABSTRACT The dynamics of inter-state relations and state sovereignty have been disturbed by late-20th century globalisation. Yet the literature on the international system, globalisation and international political economy gives scant attention to the most vulnerable sovereign entities, the small and micro states. One significant exception has been the Commonwealth, with its many small state members. Another is the area of financial crime, and the role of the offshore financial centre (OFC) within global finance. This thesis analyses the efforts of several small Commonwealth states from the Caribbean to maintain their OFCs in the face of an OECD-directed campaign against tax competition. It demonstrates both the contribution made to economic development by an OFC and the successful assertion of sovereignty achieved by these small states. The case study focuses on Caribbean OFCs and the OECD campaign against harmful tax competition during 1998 - 2003. First, the argument that tax competition is a global problem is deconstructed. Three main points from the small states’ response to the OECD position are explored, along with the OECD’s rebuttal. Because the small states are individually at a disadvantage, the thesis provides an exposition of the collective response facilitated by the Commonwealth.

  • Missionaries to Government Service
    Missionaries to Government Service Over the course of a little over 40-years (1820-1863 - the “Missionary Period”), about 180-men and women in twelve Companies served in Hawaiʻi to carry out the mission of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM) in the Hawaiian Islands. A few of the missionaries left the mission and ultimately worked for the Hawaiian Government; for the most part, they left the mission because the King asked for their assistance working directly for the Kingdom. These included William Richards, Gerritt P Judd, Lorrin Andrews and Richard Armstrong. William Richards William Richards was the first to leave. King Kamehameha III and chiefs, who felt the need of reform in their government, asked Richards to become their teacher, chaplain and interpreter. With the consent of the ABCFM, he accepted this position and resigned his appointment as missionary and then spent his time urging the improvement of the political system. William Richards, the seventh child and third son of James and Lydia (Shaw) Richards, was born at Plainfield, Massachusetts, August 22, 1793. His grandparents were Joseph and Sarah (Whitmarsh) Richards, and Captain Ebenezer and Ann (Molson) Shaw. The Richards family is descended from William Richards, who came to Plymouth before 1633, and ultimately settled in Weymouth, Massachusetts. William was a younger brother of James Richards, Jr. In the summer of 1806, in a grove of trees, in what was then known as Sloan's Meadow at Williams College, James Richards, Samuel John Mills, Francis L Robbins, Harvey Loomis and Byram Green debated the theology of missionary service.

  • ICRP Calendar
    The notions of International Relations (IR) in capital letters and international relations (ir) in lowercase letters have two different meanings. The first refers to a scholarly discipline while the second one means a set of contemporary events with historical importance, which influences global-politics. In order to make observations, formulate theories and describe patterns within the framework of ‘IR’, one needs to fully comprehend specific events related to ‘ir’. It is why the Institute for Cultural Relations Policy (ICRP) believes that a timeline on which all the significant events of international relations are identified might be beneficial for students, scholars or professors who deal with International Relations. In the following document all the momentous wars, treaties, pacts and other happenings are enlisted with a monthly division, which had considerable impact on world-politics. January 1800 | Nationalisation of the Dutch East Indies The Dutch East Indies was a Dutch colony that became modern Indonesia following World War II. It was formed 01 from the nationalised colonies of the Dutch East India Company, which came under the administration of the Dutch government in 1800. 1801 | Establishment of the United Kingdom On 1 January 1801, the Kingdom of Great Britain and the Kingdom of Ireland united to form the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Most of Ireland left the union as the Irish Free State in 1922, leading to the remaining state being renamed as the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland in 1927. 1804 | Haiti independence declared The independence of Haiti was recognized by France on 17 April 1825.
