No MÄkou ka Mana: Liberating the Nation
March 12, 12:00pm - 1:15pmMānoa Campus, Kuykendall 410
No MÄkou ka Mana: Liberating the Nation asserts that the founders of the Hawaiian Kingdom exercised their own agency and were not just acted upon by foreign powers. The ruling aliÊ»i selectively appropriated tools and ideas from the West to create a hybrid system based on an enduring tradition of Hawaiian governance and intended to preserve, strengthen, and maintain the lÄhui. Using rare primary documents and “Ōiwi optics,†Kamanamaikalani Beamer offers a new point of reference for understanding the motivations, methods, and accomplishments of Hawai‘i’s great leaders.
Dr. Kamanamaikalani Beamer is an Assistant Professor in the Hui ʻĀina Momona program split between the School of Hawaiian Knowledge and the School of Law. In the Richardson School of Law he is based with the Ka Huli Ao, Center for Excellence in Native Hawaiian Law. He is a former ʻŌiwi Ake Akamai doctoral fellow as well as Mellon-Hawaii post-doctoral Fellow, and a co-director of the First Nations’ Futures Fellowship Program. His research publications and interest focus on indigenous agency, Native Hawaiian land tenure, and the land and resource law of the Hawaiian Kingdom. Dr. Beamer was recently appointed to be the next President and CEO of the Kohala Center.
