Description

Drawing on the latest scholarship, this course offers a broad overview of New Zealand history from first Polynesian settlement until the present. People occupied New Zealand late by world standards, and we ask why this is significant. The course examines this small country in its global and regional context, as a settler state and society within the British world, immersed in the Pacific and art of Australasia. It considers different Pakeha and Maori perspectives and worlds of thought and the effects of global shifts, from the British Empire's decline to links with America, the Pacific Rim and Asia.
