David's reliable and efficient management of reviews and reviewers, together with his contributions to the deliberations of the Editorial Committee, have appreciably lessened the burdens on successive editors and helped to raise the profile of the journal. He will be difficult to replace. His colleagues on the Committee, together with Council, members, and no less the journal's wider readership, wish to place on record their appreciation of his efforts, and to extend to David, Philippa, and now Kate, their best wishes for the future. Editorial The Archives Case: Where to Now? In a 'further judgement' in the case ARANZ and NZSG ν R.W. Blakeley and the Attorney-General, released in Wellington's High Court on 23 June 1999, Justice A.A.T. Ellis ruled that monies voted to National Archives by Parliament in 1997 had been illegally diverted to other departmental purposes by Internal Affairs' Chief Executive Roger Blakeley. It had been alleged that $300,000 had been removed from the Archives' depreciation fund and spent on Internal Affairs restructuring initiatives. Yet, while the judgement vindicated the plaintiffs' decision to launch legal proceedings, there was acute awareness that a number of key issues, issues perhaps even more critical than those relating to funding, remained unresolved. In an earlier judgement (31 July 1998), while expressing concern over the proposals, Justice Ellis had ruled that it was 'too early' to determine whether or not incorporation of the National Archives within Internal Affairs' new Heritage Group significantly affected the Chief Archivist's statutory sole responsibility for the 'custody, care, control and administration of all public archives'. Hence, in early July, upon the advice of counsel, the plaintiffs sought leave to have aspects of the case reheard in the Court of Appeal. Soon after, the Crown gave notice of its intention to cross- appeal Justice Ellis' June 1999 judgement. Official reaction to the judgement had been initially muted, but consternation followed realisation in higher government circles that it placed in question wider Crown financial transfers encompassing many millions of dollars. What has become known as 'the Archives Case' is now scheduled to come before the Court of Appeal on 1-2 November, Dr D.L. Matheson QC appearing for the stakeholder organisations and the Solicitor-General 0J. McGrath QC) for the Crown. Archives and recordkeeping have traditionally been low-profile professions. Practitioners have tended to just get on with their jobs, out of the public view, doing the best they can within the limited resources provided. The recent court hearings represent the culmination of five years of unprecedented publicity for archives-related issues in this country. Just a few years ago it would have been inconceivable that archives stories might regularly feature in national ν press pages, be the subject of television programmes, be the focus of ongoing questioning in the House of Representatives, or that New Zealand archives matters would be central to professional debates in locations as far spaced as Brisbane and Sardinia. It would have been equally inconceivable that the probity of the Crown's stewardship of public archives and recordkeeping might be legally challenged. It would have been beyond belief that a Secretary for Internal Affairs, the official legislatively charged with 'general administration' of the Archives Act, could be found to have acted in contravention of the Public Finance Act.The determined attempts by officials to 'reform' National Archives, to force the institution to conform more closely to the revenue- generating commercial model favoured by bureaucratic ideologues and an influential (yet perhaps shrinking) group of politicians, has arguably, and perhaps ironically, done more to raise public archives-consciousness than decades of dedicated service to the community. This is not to argue that heightened public consciousness means that the principal issues in contention are necessarily widely understood. Indeed, it is highly likely that the details of the controversy have passed most New Zealanders by. That the contested restructurings have caused so much fuss doubtless remains a matter of surprise even to many individuals expressing an interest in, and support for, archives. There is superficial appeal in the case for National Archives having a heritage identity, as put by Internal Affairs Acting Heritage General Manager Jock Phillips in the present issue; at least until his case is subjected to informed scrutiny. It is even possible that some ARANZ and NZSG members have questioned why so much energy, so much in the way of organisational resources has been poured into the defence of a single custodial institution. The critical point, of course, is that National Archives is not just one among many such institutions. It is New Zealand's paramount public records repository, the guardian of the public memory. With the constitutional and administrative arguments for a strong and independent national archives having been frequently rehearsed, there is no need for their reiteration. They are powerful in themselves. But an almost equally powerful argument, one that has tended to be overlooked, is that the health of the nation's leading repository has the power to dramatically influence the standing of institutions at all levels of the national archives and recordkeeping hierarchy. This was clearly discerned over 20 years ago by the late Dr

    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).

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.

It also widely associated with the whakataukī ‘Ko te pae tawhiti, whāia kia tata. Ko te pae tata, whakamaua kia tīna.’ – ‘Seek out the distant horizons, while cherishing those achievements at hand.’ Its use conveys a sense of acting to take hold of the pae tata, those goals within our reach, as well as working to secure pae ora, healthy futures for Māori – that is the vision of He Korowai Oranga: Māori Health Strategy, which Whakamaua will help give effect to. Whakamaua also alludes to the idea that a korowai is intended to be worn. Whakamaua will bring completion and form to He Korowai Oranga so that all whānau, hapū, iwi and Māori communities can experience health and vitality under its covering.

    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.
