PERIODIZATION III. PRE-NATIONAL HISTORIOGRAPHY IV. AN OCCUPIED HISTORIOGRAPHY V. KULEANA IN KAPU AND NOA VI. CONCLUSION I. CONTEXT AND CONCEPT This article applies the indigenous Hawaiian value and practice of kutleana (a received sense of ancestrally-based responsibility) as a basic theme to propose a historiography for a Hawaiian national consciousness in the contexts of several historically citable transformations of power that occurred in the country from 1780 c.a. to 2001. Some of these transformations have been subtle and others radical with their long-term effects continuing to directly impact people, places, and ideas here and abroad to this day. My work advocates a context-based approach for the development of a body of publishable research that gives life and structure to a Hawaiian national consciousness and connects thereby to the theory of State continuity. To begin to restore fully a sources-centered study of Kingdom law, governance, and politics for domestic affairs today, may better assure the physical reality of more situation-appropriate real world tests of sovereign Hawaiian Statehood tomorrow. A national restoration platform for Hawaiian intellectualism must include historiography as a key building block. The presumption here is that such a connection to the past as a most effective teacher is vital to the reestablishment of a historically authentic Hawaiian national identity. The Hawaiian government as the voice to speak again someday for the sovereign and independent international person or State first requires sequential stages of specific intellectual and broader community and institutional reformulation. One necessary piece of that intellectual support structure is this article as an initial blueprint for a more inclusive, intra-national and international, event-based Hawaiian historiography. To encourage others in such a quest from their own respective fields and sets of research interests is one Kanalu Young is an Associate Professor at the Kamakakuokalani Center for Hawaiian Studies, University of Hawai'i at Manoa.
