Description
"...what does the Treaty actually say? What are its guarantees? And have they been honoured by the Crown? this collection of essays attempts to answer these questions. Those in Part One discuss aspects of the legal and historical significance of the gaining of sovereignty over New Zealand by the Crown. Those in Part Two, on the other hand, are studies of Māori reaction to the guarantees given by the Crown to protect their rangatiratanga - their tribally based heritage and identity."
