Whareraumarceller2015ma.Pdf (5.427Mb) “You Maaris get everything” Trequity Measures at the University of Otago A thesis submitted for the fulfilment of the requirements for a Master of Arts in Indigenous Development at the University of Otago, Dunedin Marcelle Rene Te Rangimarie Wharerau 2015 He mihi aroha tēnei ki tōku Māmā me tōku Nanny. Ko rāua e whakapau kaha ana ki te tautoko i a au me āku mahi. Ahakoa kua haumūmū te reo o tōku Nanny ki te ao, kei te ora tonu koe i aku whakaaro. Ki a koe tōku Māmā, ko koe te poutokomanawa o tōku whare. E kore rawa tēnei puna aroha e mimiti. Rozella Borell Te Haumiri Borell i Abstract ‘You Maaris get everything’, ‘it is easy for you to get a scholarship because you are Māori’, ‘you will get into Medicine easier because you are Māori’ and ‘Māori get special treatment’ are all phrases that are commonly heard within a competitive university environment such as the University of Otago. These phrases are associated with Māori-targeted support services, Māori-targeted scholarships and Māori-targeted admission schemes. The New Zealand media also promotes terminology such as preferential entry and special measures that perpetuate the negative stigma surrounding privilege. This thesis was undertaken to find out what can be done, at the University in particular, to eliminate this negative stigma. I used a whakapapa (genealogy, history) methodology to explain the purpose of Trequity Measures – the term I have developed – in relation to the importance the Treaty of Waitangi and highlighting educational inequities for Māori. Staff and students that were involved with, and recipients of Trequity Measures, were interviewed enabling them to share an important voice that had been hidden within the literature. Their experiences are the key to eliminating the negative stigma attached to Trequity Measures of the University. ii Mauao te maunga Tauranga te moana Mataatua me Tākitimu ngā waka Ngāti Ranginui me Ngaiterangi ngā iwi Pirirākau te hapu Paparoa te marae Ko Marcelle Wharerau ahau Prologue: the whakapapa of this thesis topic Above is my pepeha (acknowledgement of identity), and on my mother’s side I come from Tauranga, in the Bay of Plenty. So how did a young woman from Tauranga Moana come to study a Master of Arts in Indigenous Development at the University of Otago? Well, a lot of things happened in order for me to be sitting here typing this thesis. The following is the whakapapa of this topic. It is also how I have come to position myself within this thesis as both participant and researcher. In my Honours dissertation I first approached a similar topic and this thesis is an extension of that (Wharerau, 2013). This topic came about because of experiences I have had since the last year of high school. When everybody in my year group was preparing for university, I recall many of my Pākehā (European New Zealand) classmates insisting on things that at the time absolutely confused me. These included comments surrounding the notion that just because I was Māori; I would get a Māori scholarship: I would get into any university that I wanted to go to ‘because it is easier if you are Māori’. At the time, I had no real understanding of what it was that they were talking about, and had no response to their arguments. Just a short time after that conversation I applied for an On Campus Experience, OCE, at the University of Otago. When I received the phone call from the Māori Liaison Officer at the time, Tia Greenstreet, I was absolutely in awe. A group of 17 iii Māori Year 13 students from all around New Zealand were afforded an all-expenses paid trip to visit the University and see what it could offer us and what we could offer them. Of course we all fell in love with the University as soon as we saw how grown- up the Central Library was, how big the rooms were at Hayward College, how flash Arana College was, and how much each Department that we visited seemed to really want us to study with them. With my heart set on coming down to Otago the following year (2010), all of the OCE recipients were encouraged to apply for the Māori and Pacific Island Entrance Scholarship (MPIES). The scholarship was $10,000 and could go towards either your Halls of Residence or your course fees. Being awarded the MPIES was the only way I was able to afford to study at the University because it payed for my accommodation. In my first year of study at the University, I lived at one of the many Halls of Residence’s, Hayward College. While I was studying a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Indigenous Development, many of my friends in the Hall were studying Health Sciences First-Year (HSFY). This is the required course to get in to any of the Professional Health Sciences (Medicine, Pharmacy, Physio, Dentistry, and so on). I distinctively remember having a conversation with one of my friends who wanted to go into Second-Year Medicine. Amongst one of the most confusing and heated conversations I have ever had, he exclaimed, “if you were in Health Sci [Health Sciences First-Year], and you applied for Med [Medicine], you would get in on a lower grade than me, even if I got all A+’s and even then I’m unsure if I would get in…it’s so unfair, just because you’re Māori; I wish I was Māori”. By this time, I iv knew how idiotic he sounded but I could not piece the words together to respond because I was still uncertain that I knew that what he was saying was not true. Over the course of my five years – this is my sixth – at the University, I have regularly come across this attitude. Whether it has been in conversations with classmates, friends (non-Māori, and Māori), on Facebook or around election times, this attitude is common within the University of Otago, if not all New Zealand universities. It is surrounded by discourse such as: “you Maaris get everything”, “you get into Med easier”, “you do not have to try as hard as us”, “you get scholarships easier just because you are Māori” and “I wish I was Māori just so I could get that special treatment”. At this point in this thesis, this is all anecdotal. However, one of the aims of this thesis is to shed some light on these negative perceptions and attitudes and have a response when challenged with it. v Acknowledgements They say your Honours year is hard, and I say, “no way Jose, your Masters year is way harder”. I say year but I actually mean 13 months because there was no way I was going to submit this thesis on its original submission date, 24th February 2015. In saying all that, there are plenty of people I need to acknowledge for having my back along this very intense, soul-searching journey. The first words of extreme gratitude have to go to the participants of this research, the most important aspects of this thesis. Your experiences and feelings have shaped this thesis into something I am, and you all should be, very proud of. I am aware how sensitive this topic is and so I thank you all for how honest and open you have been. I know you all have read some of this thesis (the parts where I’ve used your quotes #famous), but I hope one day you take the time to read a little bit more to see why I chose you all to be interviewed. Ngā mihi mahana ki a koutou katoa! To my supervisors, Lyn and Paerau, I know that it’s part of your job to supervise students but I just want to take the time to thank the both of you for looking after me. Paerau, I’ve never told you this, but MAOR204 remains the only class in the history my university career, that I attended all of the lectures. Your class sparked my interest in finding out for myself how important the Treaty is for our people. I hope I did that justice in my thesis. Lynny girl, this is our second year now and even though you decided to take a month off work two months before my thesis was due (LOL) to write your own book, I still know that I’m the favourite out of all of your students. On a serious note though, you probably aren’t aware of how much you’ve taught me, but the list is honestly endless. To have written this thesis under your guidance and vi for you to be able to share your wisdom with me is something that I will cherish for the rest of my life. P.S. Bring me back something cool from London ! A round of applause has to go to my flatmates and all of our overstayers lol. Tys, Emma, Mari and Chels, I miss you guys and we should have a paati soon, in Thailand, or wherever. Deinda and Leana, there were times when I would think, “man, go home and mess up your own house” lol but at the end of the day I do appreciate all of the lovely words of kindness you all shared with me. Also, to all my Ngāti Scarfies, being a part of a family so tight has definitely contributed to the person I am, this research, and the loyalty I feel towards you all. He mihi nunui ki a koutou ōku hoa, tōku whānau ki Ōtepoti.

  • 16. Māori Political and Economic Recognition in a Diverse Economy
    16 Māori political and economic recognition in a diverse economy Maria Bargh Introduction The relationship between Māori and the state in Aotearoa/New Zealand has been radically reshaped in the past 20 years. In some respects, Māori tribal (iwi) enterprises now have more recognition from the Crown, primarily as economic actors, and more access to decision-making power than they have had since the 1820s, when iwi had complete tino rangatiratanga (sovereignty) in Aotearoa/New Zealand. In particular, many iwi enterprises that have completed Treaty of Waitangi settlements1 and have re-established a strong economic base are receiving greater recognition from Crown agencies. The Māori Party, formed in 2004, has been instrumental in assisting the Iwi Chairs’ Forum (a national grouping of the leaders of tribal enterprises) access ministers and key policymakers, symbolic of the manner in which economic recognition has also led to forms of political recognition. In other respects, however, the Crown persists with policies, predominantly neoliberal policies, that continue to restrict and marginalise Māori political and economic organisational forms and rights. In this chapter, 1 These are negotiated settlements between Māori and the Crown in part as reparation for Crown breaches of Te Tiriti o Waitangi 1840. 293 THE NEOLIBERAL state, RECOGNITION AND INDIGENOUS RIGHTS I am defining neoliberal policies as those that include reducing the size of the state, promoting forms of trade that have few barriers to the movement of goods and finance, and are premised on the belief that the market is the best mechanism to regulate all forms of human behaviour as people are predominantly self-maximising and selfish individuals (Bargh 2007).

  • Epochality, Temporality and Media-Communication Ownership in Aotearoa-New Zealand
    MEDIANZ VOL 17 NO 1 • 2017 https://DOI.org/10.11157/medianz-vol17iss1id179 - ARTICLE - Epochality, Temporality and Media-Communication Ownership in Aotearoa-New Zealand Wayne Hope Abstract Amidst academic policy debates over the proposed Fairfax-NZME and Sky-Vodafone mergers, the historical patterns of media-communication ownership received little mention. The purpose of this article is to explain, firstly, how the very possibility of such mergers eventuated and, secondly, why associated epochal reconfigurations in the political economy of New Zealand capitalism eluded public depiction. Initially I examine the repercussions which arose from: the restructuring of Radio New Zealand and Television New Zealand into State-Owned Enterprises (1987); the arrival of TV3 (1989); the formation of pay-subscription Sky Television (1990); and the abolition of all legal restrictions on foreign media ownership (1991). Together these events signalled the hollowing out of New Zealand’s media-communication system and the unfolding ownership patterns of conglomeration, transnationalisation and financialisation. Behind this critical narrative, I explore how the simultaneous restructuring of the national political economy, mediated public life and the vocabulary of economics obfuscated the epochal shift that was taking place. An ongoing lack of public awareness about this shift has debilitated normatively-grounded critiques of the contemporary media landscape and the ownership patterns which came to prevail. Prologue: From National to Transnational Media Ownership in Epochal Context In simple terms, an epoch is an identifiable period of history marked by special events. Natural-scientific conceptions of evolutionary epochal change can be distinguished from the idea that epochs are brought into historical being by manifestations of collective self- consciousness.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Formation, Durability and Susceptibility Coalition Traits that Affected New Zealand’s MMP Governments of 1996-2002 A dissertation presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Public Policy Massey University Albany Campus, North Shore City, New Zealand Grant Marc Gillon 2007 Abstract This thesis explores the relevant impact of three influences - policy, personality and opportunity - on New Zealand governments since 1996. The Mixed Member Proportional electoral system (MMP) was adopted by New Zealand for the 1996 general election. The various coalition government arrangements since then have been analysed using a series of case studies of identified events during coalitions’ crucial pre-election, formation, duration and termination stages. The roles assumed by, or perceived of, small parties have been important as have the actions of the pivotal party in each government. My interest in this topic springs from my service as an Alliance MP. I was an Alliance party list Member of Parliament during the 45th and 46th Parliaments (1996-2002). Systems theory was relied upon as the methodology with which to study relevant political processes. Key informant interviews and participant observation were the main research methods. This research investigates the traits, apparent in the coalitions formed from 1996 until 2002, which contributed to each government’s continuation or termination. Each stage reflected the parties’ competing interests as argued by theorists such as Muller and Strøm.

  • Class, Neoliberalism and New Zealand
    Class, neoliberalism and New Zealand Bruce Curtis University of Auckland Private Bag 92019, Auckland 1142, New Zealand [email protected] Funding This article is published with assistance from the University of Auckland, Faculty Research and Development Fund, for the project “The Squeezed Middle: A Pilot Study” Abstract This article contends that ‘neoliberal’ New Zealand is primarily a neo-colonial social-space, and that sociological, human geographic and policy-centric accounts have tended to miss this vital aspect of what Jane Kelsey calls the ‘New Zealand experiment’ (Kelsey 1995). New Zealand was an early adopter of neoliberalism and as such has enjoyed a relatively high profile as a case study of restructur- ing, specifically in international debates critical of neoliberal policies and consequences. New Zealand scholars have contributed to developing international debates in part because of this early adopter status. Overall, the critique of neoliberalism has been a fruitful site for interdisciplinarity, however the neo-colonial aspects of neoliberalism in New Zealand, and internationally, is underplayed, it is ar- gued, largely because of an underdeveloped conception of class. On the one hand, the contingency of class reflects a more generalised rejection of the agency of the working class; on the other, Marxist conceptions of class, or at least their operationalisation, are problematic. It is argued that a way for- ward is to vivify class analysis, to chart a path between a theoretically-rich but empirically frustrated Marxism, and a data driven nominalism. Recent developments by M. Savage, et al. (2013) and earlier by P. Bourdieu (1984) are illuminating. Austerity presents as the latest phase of neoliberalism.

  • The Ground Shifting Beneath Us: Collective Memory of New Zealand’S Neoliberal Revolution
    THE GROUND SHIFTING BENEATH US: COLLECTIVE MEMORY OF NEW ZEALAND’S NEOLIBERAL REVOLUTION BY BRENT JOHN NEILSON A thesis Submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Victoria University of Wellington 2016 The ground was shifting on you, without you even really understanding or knowing it. The kind of way society was structured was shifting, without you really understanding that that was what was happening. (‘James’, community and voluntary representative). Abstract This paper explores the collective memory of the neoliberalisation of New Zealand and drastic structural adjustments beginning in 1984 with the election of New Zealand’s Fourth Labour government. Through a cultural sociological analysis of narrative, collected through interviews with both community and voluntary and trade union representatives, use of a cultural sociological understanding of thick description and maximal interpretation reveals how seemingly personal accounts and evaluations take on collective significance. In tracing a path from a collective need for change in New Zealand, to a realisation of the impact of structural adjustment and the collapse of New Zealand’s Labour tradition, this research concludes that the collective memory of this time in New Zealand’s recent history is an ongoing and culturally complex negotiation of collective meaning-making and interpretation. Through an understanding of the collective memory of those who were, and continue to be deeply affected by this period in history, we can begin to understand both the collective impact of neoliberalisation, and the ongoing repair-work needed in New Zealand’s Labour Party, and the Left more broadly.

  • The Power Elite: the Treasure and New Zealand Business Roundtable's
    THE POWER ELITE: The Treasmy and New Zealand Business Roundtable's Power in the Formation of the Privatisation Programme (1984 - 1987) : A Theoretical Analysis A Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Political Science in the University of Canterbury by Andrew W. Mansfield, -~----~- - ¢ -- University of Canterbury 1990 Abstract This thesis has two primary aims. The first is to more fully understand the power that the Treasury and New Zealand Business Roundtable (NZBRT) had in the formation of the privatisation programme. The second aim is to test the bureaucratic, rational-actor and economic elite models to see how effectively each can identify and explain the nature and degree of power that these groups possessed. To do this, the bureaucratic and bounded rationality models are first applied to the Treasury's relationship with the Minister of Finance. The economic elite model is then applied to the NZBRT's relationship with the Minister. This thesis concludes with four significant findings. First, in light of the evidence presented, the power that the Treasury and NZBRT had in the formation of the privatisation programme is argued to have been less dominant than conventional wisdom has suggested. Second, the models are only of limited use in analysing the power held by both organisations. Third, significant analytical difficulties exist when attempting to view the concept of power in non-conflicting situations. Finally, power is found to be both an elusive and multi-dimensional concept; it can operate in a non­ conflictual, covert and impersonal context. The political resources used by groups can be used not only to dominate and control, but also to facilitate and reinforce the status quo.

Machinations and Maneuverings: Pre-Election Utterances in the New Zealand MMP Elections. Grant Gillon1 School Cultural and Social Studies Massey University, Albany Email: [email protected] Telephone +64 9 480 1835 Abstract New Zealand has not yet experienced the type of pre-election coalition formations that have been practiced in some other parliamentary democracies. Yet, there have been occasions where individual parties have signalled their unambiguous preference for a coalition partner based on a desired electoral result. Some parties have also clearly stated that they will not form a coalition with a particular party or parties. It would be expected that pre-election signals could be safely relied upon to predict post-election arrangements. A selection of pre-election events, indicators, arrangements and manoeuvrings of the post-MMP elections have been chosen to demonstrate the impact each case study had upon government formations. The position taken by NZ First, in 1996, is contrasted with those taken by the Alliance and Labour parties. Important lessons were learnt, by both Labour and the Alliance, in time for the 1999 election and both parties engaged in a manner which saw them successfully form a new government. During the 2002 and 2005 elections, most parties communicated strong messages indicating their most and their least preferred post-election partners. This paper is part of a wider PhD study on NZ coalitions that is being undertaken by the author.

Joseph, Dan Davin and James K. Baxter. These three writers have been selected because of their status within Kai Jensen's conception of “a literary tradition of excitement about masculinity”;1 in other words, the masculine tradition in New Zealand literature which provides fictional representations of factual events and tensions. This literary approach is also utilised in the tradition of British university fiction, in which the behaviour of students and faculty are often deliberately exaggerated in order to provide a representation of campus
