Race Relations: Australia and New Zealand : a Comparative Survey 1770's-1970's"Since European colonisation Australia and New Zealand have shared much in common, historically and culturally, yet Aboriginal-European and Maori-European relations have been different in many ways. This is the first comparative survey of racial interaction within the two countries covering the period from the 1770s to the present day. Some novel, and perhaps controversial, suggestions are advanced as to why racial prejudice, discrimination and violence were, and are, more manifest in Australia than in New Zealand"--Back cover. |
