Universi^ Micronlms Infcemationcil INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy. Requests can be made to our Dissertations Customer Services Department. 5. Some pages in any document may have indistinct print. In all cases we have filmed the best available copy.

CONCLUSION ............................ 335 BIBLIOGRAPHY ........................................ 345 iv THE NATIVE AMERICAN ESTATE: LAND AND RESOURCE DIVESTMENT AND RESTITUTION CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION In contact situations between a nation with superior technology and a nativistic community, principal conflict evolved from differing land tenure systems. This occurred when the imperial nations of Europe and later the United States encountered the aboriginal people of the American continent and the Hawaiian Islands. Colonists from the European nations claiming dominion over native peoples and their lands in the New World reflected the imperialistic mind set of their age. They were unremittingly committed to the exploitation of the aborigines and their lands. American justification for expropriating Indian land had its roots in European philosophy, theology, canon law, and international law, derived from the rhetoric of the antecedent imperial nations. The new American nation im­ plemented many aspects of Native American management prac- 1 2 ticed by Great Britain. American rhetoric which justified the expropriation of aborigines' land had been formulated prior to the expansion of the American frontier to the Hawaiian Islands. Thus, traders, settlers, and missionaries transferred this to native Hawaiiens and their lands. The future relationship between the Old World settlers and the native inhabitants of the Western Hemisphere was to a large degree already predetermined at the time of "discovery." Christianity and classical philosophy helped form preconceived views of the New World peoples and the relation of Christian nations to them. Religious, ethical, and commercial standards pro­ vided the European colonists justification for their con­ quest of native peoples and their territories in the New World. The basis for the various concepts promoting ex­ pansion lay in the European view of aborigines. Associated with the principles of discovery, just wars, and papal donations was the presumptive superiority of the Christian nations over heathen nations. In 1493 Pope Alexander VI assigned North American to Spain along with the directive to Christianize the natives. The Pope in 1497 reenforced his commission to Spain to con­ vert the New World aborigines. Other European nations did not accept their exclusion from North America. In order to justify the New World conquest European theologians and philosophers frequently referred to Aristo­ 3 telian thought to substantiate their varying interpretations. The Spaniard Juan de Quevedo cited Aristotle's statement that some men were inferior by nature to uphold the view that Indians were slaves by nature. Francisco de Vitoria denounced the idea that Indians were by nature subject to rule by others and incapable of self-rule. He thought they possessed sound minds and should not be slaves. Vitoria, however, interpreted Aristotle's teachings to mean that natives in their childish innocence required protection from superior Christian nations. Thus, he too justified conquest for the Indian's good. Juan Gines de Sepulveda agreed with Quevedo and added that the aborigines' customs and lack of individual ownership of land (title to Indian land was vested in the tribe) upheld the natural law of superiority of Christian nations over uncivilized non- Christian nations. Bartolomé de Las Casas disagreed and charged that Sepulveda did not understand Aristotle. Las Casas maintained that few individuals were by nature slaves and claimed that Indians were rational. Fernando Vazquez de Menchaca accused those using Aristotle's theory of slavery of applying it to "cover wars with a cloak of justice," but the imperialist view prevailed and it became accepted that a Christian nation had a natural right to conquer aborigines and use their labor and exploit their lands. Another area of debate among theologians and 4 philosophers centered on the moral and ethical responsi­ bility to Christianize the Indians. Inseparable from this controversy was the idea of just wars. This concept evolved as justification for conquest, expansion, and later dis­ placement of the natives from their lands. St. Augustine first developed the idea that wars could be just if the objective was good, including the intention to "avenge" wrongs. Adding to this Ambrose elaborated the moral obli­ gation to correct or prevent injustices. Medieval theolo­ gians claimed that conquest was legitimate only if the war had been just. The Crusades divided the world into an antithetical view of right and wrong as well as between the faithful and the infidel, and implanted the idea that wars of conquest waged in the name of Christianity were just. Later the doctrine evolved to justify world conquest. After Alexander VI assigned North America to Spain, debate ensued in the Spanish court over voluntary and forced conversion. The Spanish government directed its conquerors to read the Requerimiento to the Indians. If they refused to acknowledge the Pope and the rulers of Spain as

Farnham Signature iii He Mau Palapala Mai Kalipōnia Mai, Ka ʻĀina Malihini (Letters from California, the Foreign Land) Kānaka Hawai’i Agency and Identity in the Eastern Pacific (1820-1900) Thesis by April L. Farnham ABSTRACT The purpose of this thesis is to explore the ways in which working-class Kānaka Hawai’i (Hawaiian) immigrants in the nineteenth century repurposed and repackaged precontact Hawai’i strategies of accommodation and resistance in their migration towards North America and particularly within California. The arrival of European naturalists, American missionaries, and foreign merchants in the Hawaiian Islands is frequently attributed for triggering this diaspora. However, little has been written about why Hawaiian immigrants themselves chose to migrate eastward across the Pacific or their reasons for permanent settlement in California. Like the ali’i on the Islands, Hawaiian commoners in the diaspora exercised agency in their accommodation and resistance to Pacific imperialism and colonialism as well. Blending labor history, religious history, and anthropology, this thesis adopts an interdisciplinary and ethnohistorical approach that utilizes Hawaiian-language newspapers, American missionary letters, and oral histories from California’s indigenous peoples.

  • Native Perspectives on Sustainability: Jeannette Armstrong (Syilx)
    NPS: Armstrong 1 Native Perspectives on Sustainability: Jeannette Armstrong (Syilx) Interviewee: Jeanette Armstrong Interviewer: David E. Hall Date: 10/21/07 Transcribed: Brianna Finney DH: Thank you for taking your time with us today. As you know from our other conversations this project is about sustainability from the perspective of indigenous leaders and our aim is to hear from you on the subject today. JA: Okay DH: To start can you just share a little bit about yourself in terms of your background, cultural heritage, and your work? JA: My name is Jeannette Armstrong. My Okanagan Syilx name means something like the light, rippling off of moving water. It’s an image name. I come from the Okanagan, but my mother is from Kettle Falls at the Columbia River. The Okanagan River is the most northern area that the salmon reach in their spawn. I come from a people that were people that respected and loved salmon on the way to the Columbia. DH: So you mentioned some of the geography and the area that you are connected with. How would you define your community in terms of geography and people? JA: We’re Salishan peoples of the interior plateau. There are quite a number of Salishan tribes in the interior Columbia River Basin area, and we’re simply one of them. One of the things about the Okanagan is that, the Okanagan Lake System of course is quite a large lake system, and empties into the Okanagan River and meets the Columbia River at Brewster, Washington. So my Nation, the Okanagan Nation, is actually larger than the Okanagan valley and it was simply a name attributed to us because I guess the population of people in the Okanagan Valley was significant.

  • Right to Self-Defence in National and International Law: the Role of the Imminence Requirement
    "I KNOW NOT WITH WHAT WEAPONS WORLD WAR Im WILL BE FOUGHT, BUT WORLD WAR IV WILL BE FOUGHT WITH SUCKS AND STONES." EINSTEIN1 THE RIGHT TO SELF-DEFENCE IN NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL LAW: THE ROLE OF THE IMMINENCE REQUIREMENT Onder Bakircioglu* This article explores the doctrine of self-defence within the context of the challenges directed at the imminence requirement, from the perspective of both national and international law. The article will attempt to illustrate that the requirement of imminence underlines the political character of the self-defence doctrine wherein private force may only be resorted to in the absence of institutional protection. This study will argue that the imminence rule can not merely be regarded as a "proxy" for establishing necessity; rather, the elements of imminence, necessity, and proportionality are inextricably connected to ensure that defensive force is only resorted to when national or international authorities are not in a position to prevent an illegal aggression, and that the defensive lethal force is not abused. INTRODUCTION The September 11 attacks aroused controversy as to whether anticipatory or pre-emptive self-defence 2 is allowed under customary international law, and if so, under what circumstances. Following the devastating attacks on New York and Washington, the 2002 National Security Strategy (NSS) made it clear that the United States would act unilaterally to protect its security against "emerging threats before they are fully formed."3 This approach signified a radical departure from the collective security system by the sole existing super power. Indeed, while the right to national self-defence has been recognized as an inherent right of states since the very emergence of international law, * Onder Bakircioglu, Lecturer in Law, Queen's University Belfast.

    Stewart Udall and the Politics of Beauty A documentary film We need your help to make a feature length film designed for Public Television broadcast profiling political leader Stewart Udall, who left a profound legacy of conservation and environmental justice as Secretary of the Interior during the Kennedy and Johnson administrations. More importantly perhaps, Udall called on all Americans to move away from our emphasis on economic growth and consumerism and toward quality of life, and a new politics centered on beauty, frugal living, appreciation of nature and the arts, and a recognition of the Earth’s limits. This film will be widely used by activists and in the classroom to inspire environmental stewardship, social justice and the less polarized approach to politics that Udall successfully pursued. We hope this power point will give you a sense of the film, and the quality of our advisors and production team. Udall’s story offers an example of courage and visionary thought that will move many Americans to reflection and action. Who Was Stewart Udall? Stewart Udall was America’s Interior Secretary during the Kennedy/Johnson administrations. He successfully advocated for the creation of many national parks and monuments. He led the way for most of the environmental legislation we now take for granted, including: • The Clean Air and Water and Wilderness Acts, Wild and Scenic Rivers and National Trails Acts • The Land and Water Conservation Fund • Pesticide Reduction, Mining Reclamation • Endangered Species protection, Gas Mileage requirements, rapid transit systems… Stewart Udall’s Fight for Racial Justice Fought successfully to end Jim Crow era segregation at the University of Arizona.
