In Possessing Polynesians Maile Arvin analyzes this racializing history within the context of settler colonialism across Polynesia, especially in Hawai'i. Arvin argues that a logic of possession through whiteness animates settler colonialism, through which both Polynesia (the place) and Polynesians (the people) become exotic, feminized belongings of whiteness. Seeing whiteness as indigenous to Polynesia provided white settlers with the justification needed to claim Polynesian lands and resources. Understood as possessions, Polynesians were and continue to be denied the privileges of whiteness. Yet, Polynesians have long contested these classifications, claims, and cultural representations, and Arvin shows how their resistance to and refusal of white settler logic have regenerated Indigenous forms of recognition."--Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Introduction: Polynesia is a project, not a place -- The Polynesian problem: scientific production of the 'almost white' Polynesian race -- Heirlooms of the Aryan race: nineteenth-century studies of Polynesian origins -- Conditionally Caucasian: Polynesian racial classification in early twentieth-century eugenics and physical anthropology -- Hating Hawaiians, celebrating hybrid Hawaiian girls: sociology and the fictions of racial mixture -- Regenerative refusals: confronting contemporary legacies of the Polynesian problem in Hawaii and Oceania -- Still in the blood: blood quantum and self-determination in Day V.
