  • Left Out? the Extra-Parliamentary Left in NZ
    LEFT OUT? The Extra-Parliamentary Left in Aotearoa/NZ from 1999 to 2008 Tyler West Department of Politics University of Otago February 2018 Word Count: 19,964 Dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Master of Politics Left Out? The Extra-Parliamentary Left during the Fifth Labour Government Abstract The Fifth Labour Government of Helen Clark entered parliament to assumptions that after the period of neoliberal restructuring from 1984 to 1999, the political left in New Zealand had recaptured not only power in parliament but a genuine widespread public support. The scholarly literature that focuses on the period of the Fifth Labour Government generally ignores political developments and events to the left of Labour. Yet social and economic struggles which occurred beyond the bounds of parliament throughout this period. Critical research, or even just documentation, on the extra-parliamentary left is scarce in New Zealand and the available sources of information remain highly fragmented. The first purpose of this study is to establish a coherent narrative of the activities of the extra-parliamentary left over the period from 1999 to 2008, to help fill a major gap in the existing literature. This is to be done in the context of an overall analysis of the socio- economic context of the period. This study examines the interactions these movements and organisations had with the parties in government; parties that were both the focus of their political campaigning and supposedly on ‘their side’ of New Zealand politics. This study also explores issues from the debate on the left over whether a reformist or revolutionary strategy should be adopted to promote progressive political change.
