Traditional Hawai'i was governed by complex social and ritual systems, bound by the concept of kapu, or taboo. The class analyzes the process by which Hawai'i went from being a united kingdom to missionary outpost and target of pineapple plantations; to a U.S. territory which specifically disenfranchised native Hawai'ians; to the near suppression of surfing. The resulting Hawai'ian Renaissance reshaped images of Hawai'i and surfing and surfing found willing converts in California. Other topics include the history of surfing styles and competition; comparative surf breaks and shore cultures; California dreamin', the feeling you get when you hear the Eagles; beach bums; professional surf competitions and O'ahu North Shore culture; spam and plate lunch; the broader Pacific world; castaways; fur traders; tuna and canning industry; fishermen.
