  • Development,Environmental Management and Taranaki
    DEVELOPMENT, ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT AND TARANAKI his thesis explores how Māori, the Indigenous people of New Zealand, engage in environmental management processes in Taranaki in the context of postcolonial iwi [tribal] 1 development and negotiated settlements with the T government. Situating collaborative relationships in environmental management within the wider context of iwi development and postcolonial reconciliation reveals the complex interweaving of tensions, limitations and optimism that characterises this historical moment. Although ideas of settlement, reconciliation, partnership and collaboration invoke fixed and stable arrangements between Indigenous and government organisations, postcolonial coexistence is an ongoing process and remains profoundly unsettled. Drawing on postdevelopment and postcolonial theories I argue that (Indigenous) negotiations of collaborative environmental management and development can be read as unsettling openings that clear space for postcolonial mutuality and plurality. Government-led environmental management is a fundamentally cultural, spatial and political act that asserts and maintains the government’s prerogative to control the use and construction of places. Colonial appropriations of Indigenous land are stabilised 1 Throughout the thesis Maori words will be italicised and translated into English at their first usage. Maori words and their translations can also be found in the glossary. 1 CHAPTER ONE: Development, Environmental Management and Taranaki through the state’s environmental management;

  • Ch 8, Clearing the Water – Industry, Sept 15, 2014 – by Jim Tucker
    Chapter 8 Taking care of business The fragile relationship between water and industry hen I was a kid, granddad drilled a water bore at the bottom of our New Plymouth garden. W A dab hand with a divining rod, well-driller Henry Warner was about 80 when he used one to locate a likely spot, attached a garden hose to one end of a length of galvanised pipe and a drilling bit to the other, and tamped down, adding lengths of pipe as he went. At 29 feet, he struck an underground stream. He clamped a hand pump on top, and with some vigorous pumping was able to produce a trickle of murky water. None of us was game to drink it, so granddad's well was declared "for emergencies only". There never was an emergency, so the well's main benefit lay in its skite value around our neighbourhood. What granddad Henry demonstrated was not all water is found in rivers, the sea and the kitchen tap. Some exists mysteriously underground. He had spent a lifetime making a living from finding it and drilling for it. It's a practice others continue to this day - except most bores are located through more sophisticated means than a bent bit of number-8 wire. And some bores aren't for water. Ch 8, Clearing the Water – Industry, Sept 15, 2014 – By Jim Tucker While Taranaki enjoys obvious economic benefits rilling for oil began in Taranaki 13 from being the country’s energy province, that has years before Henry Warner was born.

  • Doctoral Thesis Proposal: Overview
    Doctoral Thesis Proposal: Overview Developing Cultural Heritage Management Practice By Understanding Community Relationships to the Preservation of Submerged Cultural Heritage in Taranaki, Aotearoa New Zealand Submitted to: Dr. Lee Davidson and Dr. Conal McCarthy Museum and Heritage Studies Programme Stout Research Institute for New Zealand Studies Prepared By: Susanne Grieve Rawson Originally Submitted: May 10, 2018 1 .0 INTRODUCTION Taranaki has a rich and diverse history related to maritime culture. Located on the lower west coast of the North Island, this region was most notable historically for the Taranaki Land Wars and the peaceful resistance at Parihaka (Houston 2006; Lambert and Lambert 1983; McAlister 1976; Moorhead 2005; Prickett 1990; Sole 2005; Tullet 1981). However, there are also important heritage sites that are located within submerged environments. Referred to as submerged cultural heritage (SCH) to represent the large range and type of sites, these have been identified as numbering more than 180 and are found in completely submerged environments, intertidal zones, swampy areas and rivers (Dodd 2012). SCH sites can represent varied significance to the communities that surround and utilize them as resources. For this proposal, communities are defined as a group of individuals that make up a larger body of people with a vested interest in SCH and include local residents and landowners, local business owners, local iwi, heritage professionals, avocational groups, tourists and the sport recreation community. Additionally, the local district councils (South Taranaki District Council, Stratford District Council and New Plymouth District Council) and regional council of Taranaki hold responsibility for the identification and management of these sites.

  • Drink and the Historians
    New Zealand Journal of History, 44, 1 (2010) Drink and the Historians SOBER REFLECTIONS ON ALCOHOL IN NEW ZEALAND 1840–1914* WHERE ALCOHOL HAS APPEARED in the writing of New Zealand social history, aside from its influence on some of the practitioners, the accounts almost entirely concentrate on its negative effects and the sustained campaigns for its suppression. As Caroline Daley observed, ‘New Zealand social historians have tended to focus on the wowsers of our past, the prescribers who preached a message of personal temperance if not prohibition’.1 Indeed, the prohibition movement, at its peak from the mid 1880s to the late 1920s, tends to be portrayed as an inevitable and justifiable response to a colonial society that was marred by widespread drunkenness and related instability. The rising tide of prohibition agitation fits seamlessly into what James Belich has described as the ‘Great Tightening’, a series of interlocking campaigns designed to create order, discipline and a strong nation.2 In many respects there is a ‘Clayton’s historiography’ of alcohol in nineteenth- century New Zealand; the casual observer is deceived by the historiography’s supposed complexity, but ultimately it lacks depth, balance or a sense of conviviality. It would be foolish to deny that significant numbers of people in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries drank more than was good for them or those around them. Reliable evidence of drink-induced financial, physical and psychological damage is substantial and inescapable. Nor can the fact be ignored that 25–30% of all convictions during the last third of the nineteenth century were for drunkenness.3 But an account of alcohol-induced catastrophe need not dominate to the exclusion of all other historiographical possibilities.
