A transcendental phenomenological study on Hawai`i tourism's impact on N? Kumu
description <p>This dissertation provides a coherent and an in-depth analysis of Hawai&rsquo;i tourism&rsquo;s impact on N&amacr; Kumu, who are considered to be the fabric of Hawai&rsquo;i society. N&amacr; Kumu was identified to be the teachers of the Kanka Maoli or the Native Hawai&rsquo;ian culture, which was embedded into community connectivity. The varying perspectives of these teaching practices were examined through transcendental phenomenology and transcription data analyzed according to proximal expressions of invariant elements. Eight N&amacr; Kumu participated in this study, ranging in their degree of practice, community role, how they conceptualized the role of kumu, and what the lived experience of Hawai&rsquo;i tourism meant to them.
