As a once-colonized people now living primarily in transnational family groups, Marshall Islanders have gone through rapid cultural changes. To better understand these changes, I present three ethnographic perspectives. The first is an analysis of Majuro's transformation from a small village to the contemporary capital of the Republic of the Marshall Islands. The second is a rich description of the Marshallese first birthday party, a vibrant tradition. The third investigates movement, communication, and change within Marshallese families. The dissertation explores experience as the meeting of historical trajectories, structural incentives and constraints, cultural models, and individual agency.
