Resumen


Aunque los estadounidenses habían estado considerando la anexión de Hawái desde 1851, la composición del conglomerado recial de Hawái siempre fue un obstáculo. Obviamente conscientes de la aprensión de los estadounidenses, los blancos hawaianos, o haoles, se preocuparon mucho por construirse como la raza indiscutiblemente dominante en las islas. Un medio para ese fin fue inventar y confrontar heroicamente la amenaza civilizatoria de los chinos, el mayor grupo de extranjeros en Hawái desde el tratado de reciprocidad de 1876 hasta mediados de la década de 1890. Al hacerlo, los haoles lograron demostrar que los blancos podían superar obstáculos formidables para lograr el florecimiento de su raza e instituciones en la nación insular. Esta maniobra desacreditó la lógica de los estadounidenses contra la anexión y coincidió con el énfasis de los anexionistas estadounidenses en la blancura de Hawái y su precariedad en la etapa final de los debates sobre la anexión. Por lo tanto, era una parte del esfuerzo transfronterizo entre Hawái y Estados Unidos para la incorporación del primero al segundo.
