Book excerpt: "In six chapters James Rolfe analyses the defence policy system in detail. He describes the organisation of defence, discusses the evolution of the policy-setting parts of the organisation, and then concentrates on the processes used to make policy decisions and the factors which policy makers consider to be important. The book employs examples from a wide range of issues and events of the last 20 years and includes details on alliance relationships and how they are managed, troop deployments and the background to equipment decisions. This is the first study of New Zealand's defence policy system. It is completely up to date and the arugments in it are pertinent to current debates about the necessity for defence and defence capabilties." -- Back cover.

Download or read book New Zealand Prepares for War written by William David McIntyre and published by University of Canterbury, Canterbury University Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does a small country prepare for war? How well prepared was New Zealand in 1939? ... this is the first comprehensive study of defence policy in peace-time. It considers everything from the grand strategy of alliances to military organisation and 'nuts and bolts". It poses vital questions which all Governments have to face. What must we defend? What can be threatened? Who might have the motive and the capacity to pose a threat? What circumstances might permit an attack? How could an enemy be deterred? If deterrence fails, how can an attack be countered? What allies will assist? David McIntyre shows, from files in the National Archives and surviving private papers, that between 1919 and 1939 successive New Zealand governments identified the Dominion's security with that of the British Empire by planning to send land and air expeditionary forces to help the British and by building a small navy as a "Division of the Royal Navy". New Zealand even helped to pay for the Singapore Naval Base. Yet German rearmament in the 1930s and aggressive acts by Japan and Italy cast doubts on imperial strategy. At the same time New Zealand was increasingly pre-occupied with the strategic position of the Pacific Islands. Not only were the Dominion's forces called on in four "police actions" in the islands, but there was an extraordinary dispute with the USA over the possession of numerous small islands, and New Zealand accepted responsibility for the defence of some of Britain's island colonies. Included in this study are fascinating glimpses of some great personalities -- such as Carl Berendsen, who was a one man ministry of foreign affairs, General Sinclair Burgess, who modernised the army, and Group-Captain Cochrane, the first Chief of Air Staff. We follow the running debate over compulsory military training ; observe the role of the armed services during civil disturbances; and see Bill Jordan's dramatic contributions in the League of Nations in the late 1930s. A concluding survey of the war effort, 1939-45, considers whether New Zealand prepared for the "right" war."--Inside front cover.

Download or read book Defense and Security in New Zealand written by Kevin Riordan and published by . This book was released on 2018-12-31 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legal aspects of New Zealands defence and security are too easily taken for granted. A cursory review of this countrys history reveals, however, that protecting this nation from threats to its security has had a significant impact on New Zealand and on its people from the earliest times until now. The law now impinges every aspect of this important subject, both at the domestic and international level. This is a unique and unparalleled work condensing the myriad facets and aspects of the New Zealand Defence Force, military discipline, peace support operations, cyber warfare/security and veterans with New Zealands experience and responsibilities in the international arena including protection of victims of war, war crimes, and crimes against humanity. Defence, Security and the Law will be an indispensable resource for practitioners with an interest in intelligence and security, the law relating to the armed forces, as well as international law and its subtopics, academics in both areas and of course defence forces, agencies and NGOs in New Zealand and abroad.

Download or read book New Zealand s First World War Heritage written by Imelda Bargas and published by Exisle Publishing. This book was released on 2015-04-01 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rediscover New Zealand’s hidden First World War history through the places where it happened. No battles were fought here, yet the First World War intruded into the daily life of every New Zealander who remained at home. This ground-breaking book provides vivid new insights into their experiences through exploring the places where they lived, worked, coped and mourned: army camps, fortifications, soldier-settler farms, town halls, wharves, convalescent homes and hospitals, cemeteries and war memorials, dairy factories and woollen mills. From Northland to Stewart Island, our landscape is signposted with thousands of poignant memorials, and behind the façades of old buildings, beneath scrub and behind farm fences lies a less visible landscape of war and hundreds of hidden stories waiting to be told: a soldier’s name carved on a remote railway station, a once bustling uniform factory in the heart of a city, a long abandoned gun battery … This unique book will be a revelation to all New Zealanders. Extensively illustrated with new and period photographs and fascinating maps, it contains original research and information that will open the eyes of every reader to places and stories in their community hidden in plain sight. The impact of the First World War on New Zealanders was immense; its legacy can be seen all around us today.
