NZUSA Supporting US Foreign Policy-Vol Kerl Registered for transmission by post as a newspaper. VOLUME 44, ISSUE NO. 2 Free to students NZUSA supporting US foreign policy-Vol kerl ing The US State Department student leader grants are of limited value to New Zealand student associations and NZUSA should consider withdrawing from local sponsorship of the scheme, according to Auckland Studass Publications Officer, Mike Volkerling. Volkerling, who spent two and a half months in America on such a grant over the holidays, said this in a report submitted to the recent Executive meet­ ing of NZUSA. “It is not true,” the report says, “to say that this trip is a specialist programme which provides an in-depth study of American student life and instituti­ ons. The significant word in the title is not student but leader.” The report quotes the director of the programme, Mr John Esteline, as saying last December, “Basically the programme is an instrument of US foreign policy. We realize that those students coming on the programme will become leaders in their If only we could find it own communities. We would like them to understand our country better, for we know that if we help them to do this they The pretensions of the Otago University Students’ will be able to help us in the future.” Association caused some amusement at last week’s meeting 15 DAYS of the Auckland Studass Executive. “Unless formal written Volkerling says that of the 70 criticised by the organizers on the He suggests that NZUSA this trip only since their agreements are received by March days spent in the States, onlly 15 grounds that we were intended to would be justified in liberalising governments committed troops to 15, 1970, from Auckland, were spent in universities. be relishing the joys of American its selection policies but adds that Vietnam,” he says.

Everywhere the waves created turbulence and activity but they only engulfed a few small islands; more substantial landmasses were hardly touched at all [and]…the high ground remained completely untouched. Ivor F. Goodson (1994, 17) iii Abstract This thesis examines the development of the New Zealand secondary school history curriculum in the late 20th century and is a case study of the transformation of an academic discipline into a senior secondary school subject. It is concerned with the nature of state control in the development of the history curriculum at this level as well as the extent to which dominant elites within the history teaching community influenced the process. This thesis provides a historical perspective on recent developments in the history curriculum (2005-2008) and argues New Zealand stands apart from international trends in regards to history education. Internationally, curriculum developers have typically prioritised a narrative of the nation-state but in New Zealand the history teaching community has, by and large, been reluctant to engage with a national past and chosen to prioritise English history.

  • Māori Equity in New Zealand's Polytechnics
    Māori Equity in New Zealand’s Polytechnics by Khalid Bakhshov A dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Auckland University of Technology 2020 Acknowledgements Without the support of colleagues, friends and family it is doubtful that I would have ever reached the end of this doctoral thesis. But, firstly, I must start my thanks with my main supervisor, Dr Georgina Stewart. She patiently guided me through this journey, encouraging me to fully explore my philosophical instincts. In supervision, session after session, she helped me develop a voice in the writing process that was my own. Her constant engagement with philosophy and tireless pursuit of expression led me through challenging self-scrutiny that a thesis inevitably demands. The patient structured support was invaluable to me. I hope she enjoyed the challenge as much as I did. I would also like to express my gratitude to Professor Nesta Devine for her wealth of experience and encouragement from a distance in supporting the supervision process. I would also like to acknowledge the initial support given to me through the University of Auckland, where I started my thesis. Thanks to all my friends in Whangarei, who all supported and encouraged me, as friends do, in pursuing the topic. They gave me, in their very different ways, their insider accounts that spurred me to undertake this study. Thank you, Hamish, Danny and George. At a personal level I will always be grateful for the support of my partner Johan Carvill and her family. Johan has provided me with personal support all the way through the process, putting up with ups and downs and in my final year financially supporting us.

    Reflections on Forty Years of Community Development by DAVID HAIGH Reflections on Forty Years of Community Development is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution- NonCommercial 4.0 International License. Founded at Unitec Institute of Technology, Auckland, New Zealand, in 2015 This publication may be cited as: Haigh, D. (2016). Reflections on forty years of community development,Whanake: the Pacific Journal of Community Development, 2(2), 25-29 ISSN 2423-009X 24 Practice Reflections on Forty Years of Community Development by DAVID HAIGH Abstract My involvement in community development in Auckland spans forty years. It began with community work for Manukau City when the state housing suburbs of Ōtara and Māngere were being created. There was little accommodation by the agencies that were creating these new suburbs for the wellbeing of new residents. Apart from schools and churches, few facilities existed and my time was spent within the community setting up new services and facilities. Local authorities in metropolitan areas were particularly concerned at the rate of change due to rural-to-urban migration exacerbating problems like housing, social service accessibility and unemployment. Community workers were busy trying to find resources to meet an expanding demand and at the same time fostering community engagement processes. The 1970s and 80s was a period of innovation, with the creation of new community development models such as Community Volunteers Inc. and community schools. Change came in the mid-1980s with neo-liberal policies, local authority restructuring and the shifting of power from elected councillors (key supporters of community development) to management. New public management placed pressures on community development staff and new ways of working had to be found.

  • Paradigm Lost? Lifelong Education in New Zealand in the 1970S and 1980S
    Benseman, J. (2005). Paradigm lost? Lifelong education in New Zealand in the 1970s and 1980s. New Zealand Journal of Adult Learning, 33 (1), 6-20. We remain convinced that the question of lifelong education, the decisions to take and the paths to follow in order to achieve it are the crucial issues of our time, in all countries of the world, even in those which have yet to become fully aware of this idea (Faure et al. 1972, p. 182) Introduction The concept of lifelong learning is very prominent in many New Zealand educational policies and writings at present. Although the concept can be traced back to many early educational writers, it first emerged as a tour de force in this country in the 1970s. This article reviews the development of adult and community education (ACE) in New Zealand from the early 1970s through to the early 1990s in terms of the ideals of lifelong education and the ensuing debates that surrounded it. A second article traces its more recent re-incarnation as lifelong learning. The first part of this article provides a brief review of the social and political contexts within which lifelong education emerged; the concept of lifelong education is then examined, especially in the seminal 1972 Faure report Learning to be and its subsequent influence on New Zealand ACE. The waning of lifelong education in New Zealand is then examined as a succession of New Right governments undermined many of the developments achieved in the 1970s following Faure. The historical context Like other Western countries, New Zealand in the late 1960s and 1970s was experiencing unprecedented social change and challenge.

Centre for Peace Studies University of Auckland Private Bag 92019 Auckland New Zealand iii ABSTRACT & ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A survey was carried out in 2006 of all political parties represented in the New Zealand Parliament asking for their positions on the 1987 New Zealand Nuclear Free Zone, Disarmament, and Arms Control Act referred to as the Act below, as the 20th anniversary of the signing of the Act into law approached on 8 June 2007. They were also asked for their views on Anzus, denoted in earlier working papers by the acronym ANZUS. The Anzus version seems to be more commonly used however. The findings show near universal support for the Act in its present form. The National Party now pledges it will retain the legislation unchanged should it become the government, a position that only became clear late in 2006.
