149 Islam in New Zealand – a Mixed Reception: Historical Overview and Contemporary Challenges Abdullah Drury & Douglas Pratt
Journal of College of Sharia & Islamic Studies. Vol. 39 - No. 1 2021 Islam in New Zealand – A Mixed Reception: Historical Overview and Contemporary Challenges Abdullah Drury Doctoral candidate, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand [email protected] Douglas Pratt Hon. Professor, Theological and Religious Studies, The University of Auckland, New Zealand [email protected] Received: 12/9/2020 Revised: 24/1/2021 Accepted: 13/4/2021 Abstract Purpose: This research aims to discuss the history of Islam in New Zealand, together with some of the pressing issues and challenges Muslims have encountered along the way. Looking back at the history of early Muslim settlers and the emergence of Muslim organizations and allied enterprises, it is clear that the Muslim community in New Zealand has had a rather mixed reception in a land that, on the whole, is perceived to be benignly tolerant and accepting. Methodology: The research is based on a critical analysis of the available literature, both contem- porary and historical. This paper explores complicated community developments, conversions to Islam, the violence experienced with defacement and destruction of mosques in reaction to overseas events over recent decades, ongoing Islamophobia, and the infamous 2019 terrorist attack on two mosques in the city of Christchurch. Findings: The research highlights the status of the New Zealand Muslim community and the extent and nature of their influence in the country. It constitutes a social hierarchy with a complex past and multiple internal issues. Accordingly, this paper concludes with a brief discussion of the migrant experience of Muslims. It also elucidates the necessity of further research in the future and emphasizes the need to study the culture, faith and history of New Zealand from various angles. -
The Historical Legacy –Themes and Issues
China, New Zealand, and the Complexities of Globalization Asymmetry, Complementarity, and Competition Tim Beal and Kang Yuanfei Palgrave Macmillan, New York, 2016 Chapter 2: The Historical Legacy –Themes and Issues Tim Beal China has always been visible on the economic landscape of modern New Zealand, sometime quite prominently and at other times scarcely noticeable. Even when trade between the two countries was very small, suppressed by war or the post-1949 embargo, the potential was always there even if only recognized by a few visionaries such as Rewi Alley or Vic Percival. Moreover, the movement of people – Chinese gold diggers to New Zealand and later New Zealanders, often missionaries, to China – meant that there was always some awareness of China in New Zealand. On top of this, New Zealand as a product and part of Western expansion and imperialism, could scarcely be unaffected by the wider issues surrounding China. Two major interlocked themes become apparent as the historical narrative unfolds. Firstly, there has always been a tension between the Janus-like perception of China as Golden Fleece and as Yellow Peril, and this continues today. Secondly, partly a reflection of this, but with imperatives of its own, is the interplay between politics and economics. Politics may be on the grand scale, imperial policy emanating from London or Washington, or national; driven by concerns in Wellington or Beijing. On the other hand they may be very local – alarm about house prices in Auckland being perceived to being driven up by Chinese immigration – but politics provides a constant counterpoint to economic forces.1 ‘Economic’ may be considered to have many facets, from the technological – production, transportation, storage, communication, etc. -

TO: NZRL Staff, Districts and Affiliates and Board FROM: Cushla Dawson DATE: 14 April 2009 RE: Media Summary Tuesday 07 April to Tuesday 14 April 2009 Give us a chance: WITH France joining Australia, Great Britain and New Zealand to make up an international quad-nations series this year, Fiji Bati centre Darryl Millard has called on the Pacific Nations to be considered too. After the 2008 Rugby League World Cup shake up of the international calendar by the Rugby League International Federation, it has been proposed that a Pacific Cup be held this year. The winner of the tournament enters the 2010 Rugby League Four Nations tournament (consisting of Australia, New Zealand, England and a qualifying nation). A Pacific Cup is also proposed to be held in 2011. Jones not available for Kiwis: He still has that magic touch but little general Stacey Jones has ruled himself out of contention for New Zealand's clash with Australia next month at Lang Park. The scheming halfback said he would not be available for selection for the Brisbane match which takes place on May 8, the day after his 33rd birthday. After one year out of rugby league, Jones made a shock return to the NRL this season and has shown he still has a knack for creating tries. Linwood win 17-try see-saw: Former Warrior Kane Ferris scored a match-winning try on the stroke of fulltime as the Linwood Keas snuck home in a 94-point rugby league thriller against east-side arch rival Aranui. Linwood's Canterbury Bulls hooker Nathan Sherlock and Aranui Eagles back Tim Rangihuna both scored four tries as the Keas clung to a 48-46 victory at Rugby League Park on Saturday. -

A Critical Narrative Review of Research About the Experiences of Being Muslim in New Zealand
Being Muslim in New Zealand A Critical Narrative Review of Research about the Experiences of being Muslim in New Zealand Colleen Ward1, Jaimee Stuart2 & Zeenah M. Adam1 1 Centre for Applied Cross-Cultural Research, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand, 2 Griffith University, Australia. The paper reviews and integrates findings from our programme of research on acculturation and intercultural relations with, for and about members of New Zealand’s Muslim community. Our objectives are to act as a conduit for Muslim voices, sharing findings about their experiences, aspirations and challenges, while increasing overall awareness about diversity-receptiveness in New Zealand. We describe how New Zealand Muslims see themselves in terms of their religious, ethnic and national identities; the challenges they face, including coping with discrimination and cultural change; the resources they access, particularly religion, family and community; and their pathways to positive psychological and social outcomes. We also examine how New Zealanders perceive and receive Muslims in the wider community. Keywords: Muslim; acculturation; identity; discrimination; adaptation; immigrant; attitudes The recent tragedy in Christchurch, the smaller proportion of the population than identities as Muslims and as New brutal slaying of 50 Muslim New is generally found in Europe (e.g., 6.1% Zealanders; the challenges they face, Zealanders at prayer, has led not only to in Germany, 6.3% in the United including discrimination and coping with a national outpouring of grief, but also to Kingdom, and 8.8% in France), but is cultural change; the resources they sombre reflection about who we are as a similar to the United States (1.1%; Pew access, particularly religion, family and nation and if we should have anticipated Research Center, 2017, 2018). -

Australia and the Pacific
AUSTRALIA AND THE PACIFIC: THE AMBIVALENT PLACE OF PACIFIC PEOPLES WITHIN CONTEMPORARY AUSTRALIA Scott William Mackay, BA (Hons), BSc July 2018 Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Australian Indigenous Studies Program School of Culture and Communication The University of Melbourne 0000-0002-5889 – Abstract – My thesis examines the places (real and symbolic) accorded to Pacific peoples within the historical production of an Australian nation and in the imaginary of Australian nationalism. It demonstrates how these places reflect and inform the ways in which Australia engages with the Pacific region, and the extent to which Australia considers itself a part of or apart from the Pacific. While acknowledging the important historical and contemporary differences between the New Zealand and Australian contexts, I deploy theoretical concepts and methods developed within the established field of New Zealand- centred Pacific Studies to identify and analyse what is occurring in the much less studied Australian-Pacific context. In contrast to official Australian discourse, the experiences of Pacific people in Australia are differentiated from those of other migrant communities because of: first, Australia’s colonial and neo-colonial histories of control over Pacific land and people; and second, Pacific peoples' important and unique kinships with Aboriginal Australians. Crucially the thesis emphasises the significant diversity (both cultural and national) of the Pacific experience in Australia. My argument is advanced first by a historicisation of Australia’s formal engagements with Pacific people, detailing intersecting narratives of their migration to Australia and Australia’s colonial and neo- colonial engagements within the Pacific region. -

Australia will face the Kiwis at Twickenham's Stoop Stadium, with captain Darren Lockyer declaring the Kangaroos ready to re-establish themselves as rugby league's premier nation. Roos seek revenge over New Zealand in rugby league clash: AUSTRALIA cannot regain rugby league's World Cup until the next tournament in 2013, but in the meantime they're determined to show title holders New Zealand who really is No. 1. The Kangaroos' quest for trans-Tasman supremacy began with a 38-10 win over the Kiwis in Brisbane on May 8 and will continue in England in the upcoming Four Nations tournament. Parramatta Eels' prop Fuifui Moimoi will be rested ahead of the Four-Nations because of his rib and knee injuries: Kiwis' coach Stephen Kearney has decided to rest Parramatta Eels' prop Fuifui Moimoi ahead of the Four-Nations. Moimoi carried knee and rib injuries through the NRL playoffs and has not been selected in the Kiwis' side for Wednesday night's one-off test against Tonga in Rotorua. Kearney says apart from Moimoi's absence, he has picked a full-strength side. He says they want to get this campaign off to the right start and Tonga will pick a strong side.
