This chapter challenges the progressive narrative of Hawaiʻi's boosters. It does so by analyzing the rise of opposition movements in Hawaiʻi. In particular, groups advocating for ethnic studies programs at the University of Hawaiʻi and related, nascent movements for native rights are considered. While the liberal multiculturalism of state boosters went largely uncontested in Hawaiʻi in the years before and after statehood, by the late 1960s Hawaiʻi's colonial history and its consequences would be reawakened as excitement over statehood gave way to widespread discontent among those excluded from statehood's rewards. Like the architects of Hawaiʻi's cultural exchange institutions, radicals in Hawaiʻi were also responding to Third World movements for cultural nationalism—as movements not to counteract, but to emulate.

Abstract:The state of the art is summarized showing many efforts but only few results which can serve as demonstration examples for developing countries. Education in health informatics in developing countries is still mainly dealing with the type of health informatics known from the industrialized world. Educational tools or curricula geared to the matter of development are rarely to be found. Some WHO activities suggest that it is time for a collaboration network to derive tools and curricula within the next decade.

The article discusses the future of mobility in the light of energy resources. Fossil fuel will not be available for a long time - not to mention its growing environmental and political conflicts. In analysing the potential of biofuel it is argued that the high demands of modern mobility can hardly be fulfilled in the future. Furthermore, the change into using biofuel will probably lead to increasing conflicts between the fuel market and the food market, as well as to conflicts with regional agricultural networks in the third world. Petrol imperialism might be replaced by bio imperialism. Therefore, mobility on a solar base pursues a double strategy of raising efficiency on the one hand and strongly reducing mobility itself on the other.
