520 |a Drawing on archival research, this article interprets the initial interactions between American Congregational missionaries and Hawaiian Islanders in relation to basic value conflicts surrounding the abolition of the kapu (taboo) system within the Hawaiian society of the 1820s.

This emancipatory dimension of missionary praxis is suggestive of social ethical implications for cross-cultural ministry today.
