We will study traditional Hawaiian forms of law and also trace the evolution of law in Hawai`i following American and European contact. The course will include an examination of the ways that international law, as well as US federal and state legislation and judicial decisions have affected and continue to affect Native Hawaiian identity, rights, and entitlements in the modern era.
