Download or read book Rugby League in New Zealand written by Ryan Bodman and published by Bridget Williams Books. This book was released on 2023-09-29 with total page 996 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of a sport told through its communities. Rugby League in New Zealand: A People’s History unveils the compelling journey of a game flourishing against the odds. Beginning with the game’s introduction to the country in 1907, Ryan Bodman reveals the deep-rooted connections between rugby league’s development and the evolving cultural fabric of New Zealand. By questioning the mythic status of rugby union in the nation’s identity, this history highlights how power, politics and people have collectively shaped the country’s sporting scene. Drawing on first-hand interviews and a wide range of illustrations and archival material, Bodman locates rugby league history in working-class suburbs, and among Kiingitanga Māori, Pasifika migrants, and clubs and communities across the country. The people behind the game share accounts of change, triumph and resilience, while emphasising rugby league’s lasting influence on New Zealanders’ lives.

Download or read book Changing Places written by Richard B. Le Heron and published by Longman Publishing Group. This book was released on 1996 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the nineties New Zealand entered a period of rapid and comprehensive change which has become widely known outside the country as the "New Zealand experiment". "Changing places: New Zealand in the nineties" captures the dramatic changes over the last decade, and provides a map to help interpret the complexity. How are we connected to other places? In what ways are we (re)discovering our own places? How, and through whose agency, is change being regulated, particularly in view of the common understanding that "de"regulation is the order of the day? To what extent is change in localities a result of global influences? "Changing places: New Zealand in the nineties" is the successor to "Changing places in New Zealand: a geography of restructuring". In this new book the authors have concentrated on issues of the mid-1990s: globalisation, corporate strategies, labour flexibility, social policy, sustainability, urban and regional futures, patterns of consumption and how all these are affecting people's senses of place. Using the Geographic Restructuring model which was developed in the first book, the authors simultaneously give an outside and an inside view of the past ten years of change, allowing the rstructuring of the 1980s and 1990s to be seen as a fusion of both th country's participation in global restructuring and particular interactions arising from local and national initiatives. The model raises fundamental changes in New Zealand society and how agents in different social spheres are behaving in the new economic and institutional milieu. We come closer to establishing why, and by what means, particular interests have been able to influence directions of change ..."--Back cover.

Download or read book Introducing Intercultural Communication written by Shuang Liu and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2010-11-09 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Books on intercultural communication are rarely written with an intercultural readership in mind. In contrast, this multinational team of authors has put together an introduction to communicating across cultures that uses examples and case studies from around the world. The book further covers essential new topics, including international conflict, social networking, migration, and the effects technology and mass media play in the globalization of communication. Written to be accessible for international students too, this text situates communication theory in a truly global perspective. Each chapter brings to life the links between theory and practice and between the global and the local, introducing key theories and their practical applications. Along the way, you will be supported with first-rate learning resources, including: • theory corners with concise, boxed-out digests of key theoretical concepts • case illustrations putting the main points of each chapter into context • learning objectives, discussion questions, key terms and further reading framing each chapter and stimulating further discussion • a companion website containing resources for instructors, including multiple choice questions, presentation slides, exercises and activities, and teaching notes. This book will not merely guide you to success in your studies, but will teach you to become a more critical consumer of information and understand the influence of your own culture on how you view yourself and others.

Download or read book Rugby A New Zealand History written by Ron Palenski and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2015-08-24 with total page 912 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rugby is New Zealand's national sport. From the grand tour by the 1888 Natives to the upcoming 2015 World Cup, from games in the North African desert in the Second World War to matches behind barbed wire during the 1981 Springbok tour, from grassroots club rugby to heaving crowds outside Eden Park, Lancaster Park, Athletic Park or Carisbrook, New Zealanders have made rugby their game. In this book, historian and former journalist Ron Palenski tells the full story of rugby in New Zealand for the first time. It is a story of how the game travelled from England and settled in the colony, how Maori and later Pacific players made rugby their own, how battles over amateurism and apartheid threatened the sport, how national teams, provinces and local clubs shaped it. The story of rugby is New Zealand's story. Rooted in extensive research in public and private archives and newspapers, and highly illustrated with many rare photographs and ephemera, this book is the defining history of rugby in a land that has made the game its own.

Download or read book The Story of Te Kuiti written by Russell Young and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Founded and developed on a tunnel and a viaduct, Te Kuiti owes its position and its growth to its placement on the Main Trunk railway line that was so many decades in the making. It was the construction of the first Poro-o-torao tunnel in 1885 that brought the first Europeans to the area that had only recently been the capital of the rebel Kingite movement. The incredible difficulties faced by the hapless Irishman who had the contract for digging this challenging tunnel is one of this country's most interesting but least known stories. The author has drawn on many archival sources and newspaper reports to build a picture of how the town developed beyond this point. Mr. Young has woven together a series of highly interesting cameos to present a picture of how and why things were so different in Te Kuiti from other places. It is this uniqueness that has made Te Kuiti a town of such great character."--Back cover.

Download or read book Rugby League in Twentieth Century Britain written by Tony Collins and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-09-27 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Called ‘the greatest game of all’ by its supporters but often overlooked by the cultural mainstream, no sport is more identified with England’s northern working class than rugby league. This book traces the story of the sport from the Northern Union of the 1900s to the formation of the Super League in the 1990s, through war, depression, boom and deindustrialisation, into a new economic and social age. Using a range of previously unexplored archival sources, this extremely readable and deeply researched book considers the impact of two world wars, the significance of the game’s expansion to Australasia and the momentous decision to take rugby league to Wembley. It investigates the history of rugby union’s long-running war against league, and the sport’s troubled relationship with the national media. Most importantly, this book sheds new light on issues of social class and working-class masculinity, regional identity and the profound impact of the decline of Britain’s traditional industries. For all those interested in the history of sport and working-class culture, this is essential reading.
