Thesis (M.A.)--California State University, Dominguez Hills, 2007.

This thesis asks, what are Marshallese who have been displaced from their traditional lands being taught about their land rights and culture? In an oral culture this information is an integral part of identity. This study argues many changes resulting from the intercession of outsiders and Marshallese entering the world and bringing back new ideas that affect traditional mores and identity. It uses cornerstone writings from voices of historical and sociological studies from the region to build a foundation. It includes interviews from Marshallese living inside and outside the Marshall Islands to identify problems facing a growing and migrating population. The results recognize Marshallese forming communities around the world maintaining language and connections to islands far from their daily lives. These people continue identifying themselves through their clan and land connections in the Marshalls. Also uncovered were questions and scholarship necessary to follow these issues into the future.
