Everywhere the waves created turbulence and activity but they only engulfed a few small islands; more substantial landmasses were hardly touched at all [and]…the high ground remained completely untouched. Ivor F. Goodson (1994, 17) iii Abstract This thesis examines the development of the New Zealand secondary school history curriculum in the late 20th century and is a case study of the transformation of an academic discipline into a senior secondary school subject. It is concerned with the nature of state control in the development of the history curriculum at this level as well as the extent to which dominant elites within the history teaching community influenced the process. This thesis provides a historical perspective on recent developments in the history curriculum (2005-2008) and argues New Zealand stands apart from international trends in regards to history education. Internationally, curriculum developers have typically prioritised a narrative of the nation-state but in New Zealand the history teaching community has, by and large, been reluctant to engage with a national past and chosen to prioritise English history.

  • Nationalist Rhetoric in Australia and New Zealand in the Twentieth Century: the Limits of Divergence
    Nationalist Rhetoric in Australia and New Zealand in the Twentieth Century: The limits of divergence Jack Alexander Henry Doig Bachelor of Arts Post-Graduate Diploma History Graduate Diploma Education Masters in International Studies A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2013 History, Philosophy, Religious Studies and Classics i Abstract This thesis analyses the nationalist rhetoric of successive Australian and New Zealand governments over the twentieth century. It uses political rhetoric to analyse the way that ideas about race, Empire and geopolitical identities were invoked, transformed and discarded in Australia and New Zealand. Each chapter in this thesis is a case study of an event that caused the two governments to articulate visions of Australia and New Zealand and their place in the world. It draws upon transnational and comparative historiography dealing with Australia and New Zealand, as well as scholarship seeking to understand nationalism and geopolitics. It uses these theoretical frameworks to explain the resilience and then rapid decline of British settler nationalism in Australia and New Zealand and analyse the post-British nationalisms that took its place. This thesis begins at a time when Britishness pervaded most aspects of nationalist rhetoric in Australia and New Zealand, and it ends in 1990 where governments adopted explicitly post- British post-racial national identities. It explains this transformation by analysing a series of case studies through the twentieth century that illustrate the decline of the British Empire and the attempts by governments in Australia and New Zealand to define a new place for themselves within the world.

  • Keith Sinclair and the History of Humanitarianism*
    New Zealand Journal of History, 54, 2 (2020) Keith Sinclair and the History of Humanitarianism* IN 1968 KEITH SINCLAIR was studying at St John’s College, Cambridge University,1 where he presented a paper that was later published under the title, ‘Why are Race Relations in New Zealand Better than in South Africa, South Australia or South Dakota?’.2 Sinclair took it for granted that the statement implied in the question was correct. While he understood that race relations were not perfect – the high preponderance of Māori in negative statistics was evidence enough of that – he believed they were demonstrably better than elsewhere because there was ‘no apartheid, no social colour bar, no segregation in public transport or in living areas’ in New Zealand and no difference in pay for Māori or Pākehā. There was also a high degree of intermarriage and ‘relatively little social prejudice against Maoris and even less open expression of prejudice’.3 The reason for New Zealand’s exceptionalism lay, according to Sinclair, in British ‘attitudes at the time New Zealand was annexed’. Specifically, it lay in the ‘humanitarian imperial ideology’ that then governed official British thinking. Humanitarianism had emerged as a force at the end of the eighteenth century driven by what was a renewed Christianity and a determination to see British society and the empire as a whole governed by moral politics. It was based in particular on the Christian belief in equality – that God ‘hath made of one blood all nations of men’ – and by the 1830s its greatest success was the abolition of the slave trade and the establishment of missions.

IMAGES OF PAKEHA-MAORI A Study of the Representation of Pakeha-Maori by Historians of New Zealand From Arthur Thomson (1859) to James Belich (1996) A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History at The University of Waikato Trevor William Bentley University of Waikato 2007 Abstract This thesis investigates how Pakeha-Maori have been represented in New Zealand non-fiction writing during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The chronological and textual boundaries range from Arthur Thomson’s seminal history The Story of New Zealand (1859) to James Belich’s Making Peoples (1996). It examines the discursive inventions and reinventions of Pakeha-Maori from the stereotypical images of the Victorian era to modern times when the contact zone has become a subject of critical investigation and a sign of changing intellectual dynamics in New Zealand and elsewhere.

  • Keith Sinclair, 1922-1993
    Keith Sinclair, 1922-1993 KEITH SINCLAIR died on 20 June 1993. He was the founding editor of the New Zealand Journal of History in 1967, and he remained its editor for twenty years. In the April 1987 issue of the Journal, on the occasion of his retirement, we published a festchrift in his honour. The essays written at that time reflected the extensive range of his historical abilities, for they were all chosen to represent areas of historical analysis in which he had been personally involved, as well as providing an opportunity for colleagues and former students to express their affection and respect for him. Keith continued to write after his retirement, and his last major historical work, Kinds of Peace, Maori People after the Wars, 1870-1885, was published in 1991. This issue of the Journal is devoted to women's history. It is not inappropriate that we include within it the obituaries for Keith, for he was a woman's man too. It was he who ensured that women were appointed as historians at Auckland University, long before it became an issue of equity at that institution. It was he who ensured that women run the New Zealand Journal of History, along with the men, as co-equals. This issue is edited by his wife. It seems therefore, while it is a sad occasion, also proper that Keith be here too. JUDITH BINNEY M.P.K. SORRENSON There is a kowhai in the blood, Which knows no autumn where it thrives.

Carpenter 2008 HISTORY, LAW AND LAND: The Languages of Native Policy in New Zealand’s General Assembly, 1858-62 A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History at Massey University, Auckland, New Zealand. Samuel D. Carpenter 2008 ii to J. H. Wright iii Abstract _________________________________________________ This thesis explores the languages of Native policy in New Zealand’s General Assembly from 1858 to 1862. It argues, aligning with the scholarship of Peter Mandler and Duncan Bell, that a stadial discourse, which understood history as a progression from savage or barbarian states to those of civility, was the main paradigm in this period. Other discourses have received attention in New Zealand historiography, namely Locke and Vattel’s labour theory of land and Wakefield’s theory of systematic colonization; but some traditions have not been closely examined, including mid-Victorian Saxonism, the Burkean common law tradition, and the French discourse concerning national character. This thesis seeks to delineate these intellectual contexts that were both European and British, with reference to Imperial and colonial contexts. The thesis comprises a close reading of parliamentary addresses by C. W. Richmond, J. E. FitzGerald and Henry Sewell.
