Her long-standing commitment to public history and Treaty education sets a standard to which most of us can only aspire. Books such as this will continue to influence how New Zealanders view and value the past for years to come.’ Aroha Harris, Associate Professor of History, University of Auckland ‘That it has taken so long for the moral force of the Treaty to change the course of events, as it is doing now, is a commentary not on the weakness of the Treaty itself but on the powerful ethos of colonialism. This book is commended to all who love their country.’ Ranginui Walker DCNZM, reviewing the first edition of The Treaty of Waitangi published in 1987 ‘Claudia Orange has made an extraordinary contribution to the important national conversation relating to the Treaty of Waitangi and to New Zealanders’ understanding of ourselves – our history and our identity. Her work remains a cornerstone of research related to the Treaty and it is difficult to overstate the impact it has had on scholarly and public understanding.’ Carwyn Jones, Associate Professor of Law, Victoria University of Wellington ‘Claudia Orange’s scholarship on the Treaty of Waitangi has been amongst the most influential contributions to New Zealand’s developing understanding of the agreement signed in 1840. I don’t know of any other work on the Treaty which has endured in this manner and engaged so many people. Her contribution to our development as a nation is vast and invaluable.’ Janine Hayward, Professor of Politics, University of Otago About the Author Dame Claudia Orange is one of New Zealand’s most distinguished historians. After publishing her first, award- winning history The Treaty of Waitangi in 1987, she became General Editor of the Dictionary of New Zealand Biography, released in five volumes with the Māori biographies also in te reo Māori (now online at www.dnzb. govt.nz).

  • The Formation of Policy on Treaty of Waitangi Claims in the Pioneering Years, 1988-1998
    Settling Treaty Claims: The Formation of Policy on Treaty of Waitangi Claims in the Pioneering Years, 1988-1998 Therese Suzanne Crocker A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2016 ABSTRACT For the past quarter-century the New Zealand government has negotiated with Māori groupings to find ways of compensating for the Crown’s historical breaches of the Treaty of Waitangi. The negotiations take place between mandated claimant negotiators and officials who represent the executive arm of government; the resultant settlements are then endorsed by legislation that declares them to be ‘full and final’ resolutions of historical grievances. This thesis analyses the way New Zealand governments conceived, introduced and implemented policies to address the claims during the pioneering years 1988–1998. The foundational policies worked out in this decade bedded-in the Treaty claims settlement processes which are now nearing their end. Through examining official archives, the thesis finds that these processes initially emerged as policy-driven responses to a combination of factors, such as the broad context of the ‘Māori Renaissance’, social shifts in understanding the past, legal cases and political pressure from iwi. The thesis goes on to explore several years of experimental negotiations and policy formulation which culminated in the Crown’s presentation in 1994 of both a suite of draft policies intended to offer a comprehensive approach to the negotiations process and a notional quantum of $1 billion to settle all historical claims (the ‘fiscal envelope’). It demonstrates that while this package was introduced to shape and contain the emergent settlement mechanisms and their outcomes, policies continued to be modified in highly significant ways.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. TE WAIRUA KŌMINGOMINGO O TE MĀORI THE SPIRITUAL WHIRLWIND OF THE MĀORI A thesis presented for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in Māori Studies Massey University Palmerston North, New Zealand Te Waaka Melbourne 2011 Abstract This thesis examines Māori spirituality reflected in the customary words Te Wairua Kōmingomingo o te Maori. Within these words Te Wairua Kōmingomingo o te Māori; the past and present creates the dialogue sources of Māori understandings of its spirituality formed as it were to the intellect of Māori land, language, and the universe. This is especially exemplified within the confinements of the marae, a place to create new ongoing spiritual synergies and evolving dialogues for Māori. The marae is the basis for meaningful cultural epistemological tikanga Māori customs and traditions which is revered. Marae throughout Aotearoa is of course the preservation of the cultural and intellectual rights of what Māori hold as mana (prestige), tapu (sacred), ihi (essence) and wehi (respect) – their tino rangatiratanga (sovereignty). This thesis therefore argues that while Christianity has taken a strong hold on Māori spirituality in the circumstances we find ourselves, never-the-less, the customary, and traditional sources of the marae continue to breath life into Māori. This thesis also points to the arrival of the Church Missionary Society which impacted greatly on Māori society and accelerated the advancement of colonisation.

  • Waikato-Tainui and Ngāi Tahu's Treaty Settlement Negotiations With
    Balancing rangatiratanga and kawanatanga: Waikato-Tainui and Ngāi Tahu’s Treaty settlement negotiations with the Crown Martin Fisher A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Victoria University of Wellington 2015 i ii Abstract Waikato-Tainui and Ngāi Tahu’s negotiations with the Crown produced the first two major iwi-based agreements of the modern era of Treaty settlements in New Zealand/Aotearoa. While the existing historiography has previously addressed the general parameters of each agreement, and some key players have briefly written about their involvement in the process, an analysis of both negotiations through the lens of the iwi (tribe) pursuit of rangatiratanga (or self-determination) and the Crown’s defence of its sovereignty and kawanatanga (or governance) increases our understanding of these precedent-setting Treaty settlements. Māori rangatiratanga and Crown sovereignty and governance were not the only factors that drove all parties in their negotiations, but they represented the dominant motivating force in terms of reaching agreements on very difficult issues. Through an investigation of Ngāi Tahu, Waikato-Tainui, Crown and public sources, this thesis identifies the balancing of iwi rangatiratanga and the Crown’s sovereignty and kawanatanga in four major areas of the process: the development of iwi governance systems post-settlement, the negotiation of the financial aspects of the settlement, the parameters surrounding the return of land, and the formulation of the historical accounts and Crown apologies. The political structures set by the Crown to govern the process influenced all aspects of the negotiation.

  • Locating Biographies Within a National Encyclopedia Jock Phillips
    2 INDIVIDUAL LIVES AND NATIONAL TRUTHS: LOCATING BIOGRAPHIES WITHIN A NATIONAL ENCYCLOPEDIA JOCK PHILLIPS I must begin with an admission. As a historian I have long held a scepticism about the place of biography in historical studies. My sense of the role of the historian is to present the larger patterns, to paint and explain the huge social forces, the determinative cultural and political ideas, and the economic developments which forged the world of the past. Individual lives are simply the flotsam and jetsam floating above these massive historical waves. Even major political leaders or seminal thinkers need to be explained against wider social and cultural currents. In this view of the historian’s mission, dictionaries of national biography become extremely useful reference works, to check the details of particular lives. They are useful for case studies, for providing the telling example. They do not contribute in themselves to the larger generalisations about nations or eras. That is what I firmly believed until I became involved in the project to digitise the Dictionary of New Zealand Biography (DNZB). This opened up new ways of using the dictionary and its database, and created the possibility of using the individual biographies in the dictionary to inform the history of the nation itself. What had been a purely reference work, used only by historians to check biographical details, could become a tool for answering new questions central to understanding a national history. A dictionary of biography might become the biography of a nation. This discovery is the major focus of this chapter. 21 ‘TRUE Biographies of Nations?’ Although a two-volume Dictionary of New Zealand Biography had been published in 1940 under the editorship of the journalist and librarian G.

  • A Study of the MĆOri and the Legal
    THE FIGHT FOR ANCESTRAL RIVERS: A STUDY OF THE MĀORI AND THE LEGAL PERSONHOOD STATUS OF THE WHANGANUI RIVER AND WHETHER MĀORI STRATEGIES CAN BE USED TO PRESERVE THE MENOMINEE RIVER Tia Rowe In early 2017, the New Zealand government and the Māori passed a law that formally recognized the Whanganui River as a living entity that was inseparable from the Māori themselves, a concept known as Te Awa Tupua. Te Awa Tupua was given legal personhood status and the government ceded its rights to the Whanganui River to Te Awa Tupua. Comparatively, the Menominee River in the United States of America is involved in a legal battle between the Menominee Tribe, who want to protect it, and a mining company that is trying to build a mine on it. This note briefly looks at the history of the Māori and the history of the Menominee and their ties to their ancestral Rivers. Finally, this note will examine the feasibility of applying the strategies the Māori used to the struggle for protecting the Menominee River. This note concludes that the large-scale social movements and political lobbying that the Māori utilized would likely not be as successful in a U.S. framework because of political differences and the limited timeframe the Menominee are working within. J.D. Candidate, May 2019 at Michigan State University College of Law. I would like to thank Professor Kate Fort and Dr. Kyle Whyte for their guidance and support while writing this note. I would also like to thank my family and friends for supporting me through this process, as well as Ashley Martin with the Michigan State International Law Review for her careful editing and helpful suggestions.

    New Zealand (NZ): Understanding Maori World Views, Perspectives and Culture NZ/Ref Processes of Pakeha change in response to the Treaty of Waitangi This is a popular, readable PhD thesis about how Pakeha respond when they learn about the Treaty of Waitangi. It covers Maori protest about the Treaty and efforts by Treaty educators to help Pakeha through “head and heart” responses towards being “a group that is changing”. Described by Emeritus Professor Ranginui Walker as a “sound and tightly written piece of work”, the book includes colourful visual theories of change and research into discourse and praxis in NZ organisations. It concludes with a social psychological theory of transformation in the Aotearoa New Zealand context. Useful appendices include a timeline of Maori and Pakeha actions for and against the Treaty from 1840 – 2000.
