The Fighting Man as Tourist - Hawaii History Reopened!

2007-12-26T01:28:00.004-08:00

“During World War II, roughly a million soldiers, sailors and war workers spent time in the territory of Hawaii. In order to mediate the potentially explosive tensions produced by this influx of homesick and battle weary men into an unfamiliar and highly diverse society, the US military command and Hawaii’s ruling elites tried to cast wartime visitors in a carefully constructed role – that of tourists. Tourists, as sociologist Dean MacCannell has pointed out, see difference as pleasurable, rather than threatening, and the unusual affirming their own way of life rather than challenging it. The paradigm of the fighting-man-as-tourist enabled wartime visitors to consume the “Otherness” of Hawaii without risking loss of primary identity and without needing to directly confront or reject the “Other.” At least this was what military and civilian authorities hoped would occur. As they and the soldiers themselves discovered, the role of tourist was a contested one. While elites might proffer a certain model of tourist behavior, it could be rejected or adapted to other purposes. During World War II, the paradigm of “tourism” in Hawaii has hotly contested and carried and carried surprising political import.”

The Paragraph is quoted from David Farber and Beth Bailey’s article “The Fighting Man as Tourist: The Politics of Tourist Culture in Hawaii during World War II” in The Pacific Historical Review, Vol. 65, No. 4, Tourism and the American West (Nov., 1996), pp. 641-660. The paragraph really carries an important message, especially in recent global scenario. We should learn something from this paragraph.

Maui Weddings Secrets Unveiled

2007-12-24T01:06:00.000-08:00

Whatever your religious affiliation or whatever you’d like to experience, there is a Maui wedding ceremony that will suit you. A lot of people prefer the traditional Hawaiian wedding ceremony and there is an interesting tale to tell about that.

Since the early Hawaiians had no written language, a traditional Hawaiian wedding is nothing more than speculation. Some of the traditions have been handed down, from generation to generation, in stories and songs from the past. But other features are simply guesswork. It is believed that the wedding ceremony was reserved for royalty but is now available for anyone who cares to use it. On Maui there are houses of worship for almost every religion on earth, churches, temples, etc. that can be adapted by lesser-known sects for an appropriate service. In addition, by bringing in your own religious person to perform the ceremony, you can be assured that your wedding vows will conform to whatever specifics your religion requires.

For others, there are a variety of settings in which Maui wedding ceremonies can be performed. There are numerous garden weddings with some of the most lovely flowers and plants you’ll ever see as the background for your service. You can be married underneath a beautiful waterfall called the Wall of Tears, or on a private estate with its own smaller waterfall. And if the Gods of the Islands smile down on you, they may send you a rainbow as an extra feature. In addition to numerous beach settings, both private and public, there are other natural features of the island that you can take advantage of. Fly your guests by helicopter to the top of a volcano and take your vows at the setting where thousands of native ceremonies took place in ancient times. Let your imagination run wild thinking about the natural settings available on Maui and take comfort in the knowledge that whatever your religious affiliations, they can be easily accommodated on Maui.
