  • Chinese New Zealanders: an Inventory of Records Held by Archives New Zealand © 2013 Wendy Harnett1
    Chinese Southern Diaspora Studies, Volume Six, 2013 南方華裔研究雜誌, 第六卷, 2013 Chinese New Zealanders: An Inventory of Records Held by Archives New Zealand © 2013 Wendy Harnett1 Background This inventory was created in response to an exciting discovery of records of early Chinese migrants to New Zealand. Records of a poll tax imposed on Chinese migrants arriving at Wellington were already held by Archives New Zealand (ANZ), Wellington Head Office. However, poll tax records of Chinese arriving in Auckland were believed to have been destroyed in a fire in the Hope Gibbons Building, Wellington in 1952. In 2012 ANZ Wellington’s Description & Discovery team, while accessioning unprocessed archives, discovered several boxes of Auckland poll tax records covering the period 1882 to 1928.2 The records were listed, repackaged and sent to ANZ Auckland Regional Office where they are being digitised to provide access via Archway, ANZ’s online archives finding aids system (www.archway.archives.govt.nz).3 As a substantial amount of records relating to Chinese New Zealanders is held by Archives New Zealand’s four offices, it was felt that an inventory would be a useful resource for genealogists and other researchers. The majority of records date from 1865 to the 1950s and they reflect the New Zealand government’s activities and policies towards Chinese migrants and provide evidence of the systemic discrimination experienced by them. Many of the records pertain to immigration matters, including the poll tax, and also to the alien status of Chinese immigrants. Other records relate to naturalisation, employment and miscellaneous subjects.

  • The Portability of Macro-Appraisal by a Comparative Analysis of Canada, South Africa, and New Zealand
    One Size Fits All? The Portability of Macro-Appraisal by a Comparative Analysis of Canada, South Africa, and New Zealand JOHN ROBERTS RÉSUMÉ Cet article analyse la méthodologie de la macro-évaluation ailleurs que dans le contexte canadien où cette approche a été développée et examine la pertinence du modèle pour les archives gouvernementales au Canada, en Afrique du Sud et en Nouvelle-Zélande. L’auteur étudie la macro-évaluation d’abord en tant que cadre théorique, puis comme une réponse aux difficultés d’ordre pratique qui découlent des autres approches d’évaluation archivistique. Il se penche ensuite sur les questions de gestion du changement entourant l’adoption de la macro-évaluation dans d’autres juridictions. L’article conclut que tant la théorie que la pratique doivent être prises en compte lorsqu’on envisage l’adoption de nouveaux modèles et que, bien que les condi- tions locales doivent être considérées, la valeur possible des innovations provenant de l’étranger ne doit pas être ignorée. ABSTRACT This article examines the methodology of macro-appraisal in environ- ments other than the Canadian context in which it was originally developed. It consid- ers the suitability of the model for government archives in Canada, South Africa, and New Zealand. Macro-appraisal is discussed first as a theoretical framework and then as a response to practical difficulties arising from other approaches to appraisal. The change management issues surrounding the possible adoption of macro-appraisal in other jurisdictions are explored. The article suggests that both theory and practice need to be addressed when considering the adoption of new models.

  • Māori and Pākehā Health Inequalities in Long-Term Perspective
    “Tall, active and well made”? Māori and Pākehā health inequalities in long-term perspective Kris Inwood, University of Guelph Les Oxley, University of Waikato Evan Roberts, University of Minnesota In this paper we review ethnic differences in physical well-being in New Zealand since the 18th century. The Māori were relatively tall at first contact with Europeans. They experienced little or no stature decline in the 19th century, in spite of a significant diminution of population during European colonization. In the early decades of the 20th century, however, Māori stature declined absolutely and relative to other New Zealanders. Other indicators point to the early 20th century as a period of severe physical stress. We argue that health inequality along ethnic lines is not genetic in origin, at any rate not in a simple sense. Neither is it an inevitable result of vulnerability to introduced European diseases. Rather, health inequality in New Zealand reflects the Māori experience of colonization as New Zealand industrialized and urbanized during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. “Tall, active and well made” 1? New insights into Māori stature and health2 Kris Inwood, University of Guelph Les Oxley, University of Waikato Evan Roberts, University of Minnesota Introduction Between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries the arrival of Europeans brought about a drastic decline of indigenous populations and a colonization of previously independent societies almost everywhere in the Americas and Australasia. Population declined because of military conflict, the epidemological shock of new disease, lost access to means of subsistence, and erosion of the will live leading to fertility decline and suicide.
