    Pioneering History

    New Zealand Journal of History, 36, 1 (2002) Chris Hilliard Pioneering History NEGOTIATING PAKEHA COLLECTIVE MEMORY IN THE LATE NINETEENTH AND EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURIES* IN APRIL 1884 Thomas Hocken stood before a group of nearly 40 men who had gathered to establish the Early History Society of Otago. Hocken was known by his contemporaries as a 'gentleman who had always taken a great interest' in New Zealand's history.1 On this occasion he gave a speech designed to rouse interest in the foundation of Pakeha New Zealand: 'Whatever his nationality, the pioneer delights to record, and his successors to hand down, the minutest incidents of early history'. He hoped that the story of Pakeha origins, symbolized by the arrival of the immigrant ships Tory, Cuba, Wild Watcli, John Wicklijfe, Randolph and Cressy, would become 'as complete and full of interest' as the accounts of Maori or white American origins (with their well-known immigrant vessels the Arawa and Tainui or the Mayflower). He urged his audience to emulate the Historic Society of New York in 'raising from oblivion a thousand interesting details connected with the settlement... which but for such timely efforts must have been irrevocably lost.'2 Another founding member, the Rev. Dr D.M. Stuart, also spoke with a sense of urgency: 'For years he had advocated the formation of such a society'. His friend — old settler Mr Cutten — had recently died, taking much information on early Otago with him. However, J. Hyde Harris outdid both Hocken and Stuart with a remarkably long-standing intention to gather Otago's foundational history.

    Inventory for John Logan Campbell Papers MS-51 Auckland Museum

    Inventory for John Logan Campbell Papers MS‐51 Auckland Museum Library Prepared by: Christina Troup, 1966/7; reconfigured by Mary Donald, 2005‐2013; amended and edited by Bruce Ralston, 2014‐ Date prepared: 26 May 2018. The collection currently known as the John Logan Campbell Papers (MS‐51) consists of five separate collections: 1. John Logan Campbell’s personal papers and his business enterprises ‐ these reflect both business and social history from the 1840s to 1910. There is also a section containing papers of wife Emma and daughter Winifred. 2. Cornwall Park Trust Board. Records. Cornwall Park management covering the period 1902 ‐ 1930s. 3. Winifred Humphreys (nee Campbell). Papers, 1910 ‐ 1930s. 4. Russell Stone. Photocopies of documents, a single original letter and donated from other sources. 5. Sir Colin Campbell. Includes JLC’s bible. Size 6.5 linear metres Date range 1806‐1975, primarily 1840s‐1930s Physical description Holograph Printed Plans Architectural drawings Photographs Provenance The Cornwall Park Trust Board deposited the first two collections in 1957. Winifred Humphrey’s papers were gifted from the Alexander Turnbull Library in the early 1960s. May 26, 2018 Professor Russell Stone and Sir Colin Campbell gifted the remainder in 1975. Earlier archival practice clumped like material; hence the collections are catalogued under the one manuscript number – MS‐51. One of the advantages of this ‘clumping’ was to facilitate use; it was easy to add to existing inventories. However, it is current archival practice to maintain the integrity of individual collections through provenance. Today collections are held in their own right and linked through catalogues, indices and finding aids.

    2.5 Tourism and Ecosystem Services in New Zealand

    TOURISM 2.5 TOURISM AND ECOSYSTEM SERVICES IN NEW ZEALAND David G. Simmons Lincoln University, PO Box 85084, Lincoln University, Lincoln, New Zealand ABSTRACT: Tourism is an important and growing economic activity in New Zealand. While promotional activities highlight New Zealand’s biodiversity and ‘clean green’ image under a 100% pure brand, relatively little is known of its draw on ecosystem functions and services. Preliminary analyses of the sector’s eco-effi ciency highlight both the complexity of the sector and its relatively-polluting nature. Tourism is, however, a two-edged sword in that it also provides an economic initiative for the designation and management of protected natural areas. Given the size, activity volumes and growth trajectory of the sector, non-market and resource-use and effi ciency evidence to support tourism policy and planning is now urgently required. Key words: clean green image, co-effi ciency, recreation, tourism. NATURE OF ECOSYSTEM SERVICES AND THEIR RELATIONͳ (both physical and psychological), and social components (cultur- SHIPS TO TOURISM al identity, social networks, and so on). New Zealand’s biophysical resources and functions (includ- Even in their simplest forms descriptions of ecosystem ing indigenous biodiversity), wherever they are found – from the services and their human benefi ts provide overt links to the mountains to the sea – are the cornerstone of the New Zealand role and functions of leisure, recreation and tourism in the life tourism ‘product’. The tourism sector depends on the biophysical of New Zealanders. These three human spheres of activity are environment and ecosystem functions for land (accommodation, commonly linked and are argued to fulfi l the same set of basic roads), water, energy inputs, minerals, biodiversity, and a whole human social, psychological and physiological needs (Moore host of ecosystem services such as climate and greenhouse gas et al.

Southland 2 A CONSERVATION LEGACY A nationwide planting project of the scale of Living Legends will benefit New Zealanders for years to come. Living Legends plantings will enhance some of our most special parks and reserves, these are places where we reflect, refresh and can escape the hustle and bustle of our daily lives. Trees play an important role in moderating our climate, improving our air quality, providing homes for native wildlife and landscapes for us to enjoy. The idea for Living Legends was birthed in 2009, when The Tindall Foundation asked conservation organisation Project Crimson to lead a project that would create a green legacy during Rugby World Cup 2011. Meridian and the Department of Conservation then joined the project to give New Zealanders and international visitors the opportunity to enjoy and contribute to the environment. The Department of Conservation helped the Living Legends project team to select appropriate public spaces for these plantings to ensure that all “Living Legends was an amazing achievement.

    Fighting to Choose: the Abortion Rights Struggle in New Zealand. by Alison Mcculloch

    REVIEWS (BOOKS) 165 Fighting to Choose: The Abortion Rights Struggle in New Zealand. By Alison McCulloch. Victoria University Press, Wellington, 2013. 339pp. NZ price: $50.00. ISBN: 9780864738868. This is a partisan and passionate account of abortion politics in New Zealand, but it is also a scholarly, extensively footnoted, well-researched and fascinating history of pro- choice struggles, anti-abortion politics and the ongoing anomalies in this country’s abortion laws and regulatory processes. Acknowledgements start with McCulloch’s account of her need to present herself as ‘mentally unstable’ in order to secure her access to an abortion in her twenties and her anger at having to run the gauntlet of anti- abortion protesters as she entered Wellington’s Parkview Clinic for the procedure. Her research on the project was initiated in 2007 with a grant from the Women’s National Abortion Action Campaign (WONAAC). The book is illustrated by a range of photos assembled from the archives of the Alexander Turnbull Library and various activist organizations. McCulloch’s pro-choice position is articulated in the opening pages of the introduction. The first question that the book addresses is why the women’s movement in New Zealand failed to achieve control by women over their fertility – in particular, the right to abortion. Conservative thinking and the power of the Catholic Church, combined with what McCulloch identifies as the problematic reformist strategies of the Abortion Law Reform Association (ALRANZ), are identified as the reasons for New Zealand’s relatively restrictive abortion legislation, which nevertheless provides the framework within which 15,000 abortions are approved each year.
