In Securing Paradise, Vernadette Vicuña Gonzalez shows how tourism and militarism have functioned together in Hawai`i and the Philippines, jointly empowering the United States to assert its geostrategic and economic interests in the Pacific. She does so by interpreting fiction, closely examining colonial and military construction projects, and delving into present-day tourist practices, spaces, and narratives. For instance, in both Hawai`i and the Philippines, U.S. military modes of mobility, control, and surveillance enable scenic tourist byways. Past and present U.S. military posts, such as the Clark and Subic Bases and the Pearl Harbor complex, have been reincarnated as destinations for tourists interested in World War II. The history of the U.S. military is foundational to tourist itineraries and imaginations in such sites. At the same time, U.S. military dominance is reinforced by the logics and practices of mobility and consumption underlying modern tourism. Working in tandem, militarism and tourism produce gendered structures of feeling and formations of knowledge. These become routinized into everyday life in Hawai`i and the Philippines, inculcating U.S. imperialism in the Pacific.

Eine Pionierstudie: die umfassende Analyse der populären monarchisch-nationalen Militärmalerei des 19. Jahrhunderts, die noch heute das Bild vom Krieg mit prägt. An weit über 100 Gemälden arbeitet die Autorin ein symbolisches Archiv des medialisierten Krieges heraus. Welche Ziele verfolgten die Maler, welche Bildstrategien benutzten sie? Wie weit gaben sie Realität wieder? Wie konstruierten sie den Krieg neu? Und wie stark prägten ihre Bilder die Einstellung der Gesellschaft zum Krieg mit?
