This was the time when whalers, traders and missionaries made the first contact with the country and its people. In the second part the author shows that settlement was generally unorganised until the Maori Wars, when the Provincial and Central Governments took a greater part in encouraging immigration and settlement. Part 3 describes how Auckland grew and how settlement was extended to the more accessible areas of the Province. Mr Horsman deals with the twentieth century and the steady progress on both the rural and urban scene in Part 4. The highlight of the latter part of this period is the growth of Auckland City itself.

Download or read book Reinventing Capitalism in New Zealand written by Christopher Wilkes and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-02 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the nineteenth century, Britain bestrode the world. Its domination depended in part on it exporting its social and economic problems to the farthest reaches of the globe. In Aotearoa/New Zealand, Britain’s élite thought they had found a ready-made country in which to re-establish their way of life. This invasion might ease their problems at home, and extend their influence to the edge of the earth. White settlers began to arrive in New Zealand in numbers during the 1840s, and sought to reinvent capitalism in a new land. This book traces the shape of this reinvention, and the slow emergence of New Zealand’s particular form of class structure. The book will be of interest to anyone concerned with the history of capitalism, and its colonial ambitions. It sheds light on the enduring nature of inequality in New Zealand, and where it might originate. Students of political science, sociology, history and cultural studies will find its arguments of interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a city that has forgotten and erased much of its history, there are still places where traces of the past can be found. Deep histories, both natural and human, have been woven together over hundreds of years in places across Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, forming potent sites of national significance. This stunning book unearths these histories in three iconic landscapes: Pukekawa/Auckland Domain, Maungakiekie/One Tree Hill and the Ōtuataua Stonefields at Ihumātao. Approaching landscapes as an archive, Lucy Mackintosh delves deeply into specific places, allowing us to understand histories that have not been written into books or inscribed upon memorials, but which still resonate through Auckland and beyond.

Book excerpt: Between 1500 and 1900 there was a constant growth in the numbers of large cities and networks of smaller towns throughout the Pacific world in which traders and primary producers did business. The essays in Urbanization and the Pacific World explore the increasingly complex economic relationships that connected cities in and around the Pacific world to each other, and pay particular attention to the impact that growing cities had on the economies of their hinterlands. The volume also contains articles that examine the problems that city growth created and the ways in which people were able to cope with them.

Download or read book Colonization and Development in New Zealand between 1769 and 1900 written by Ian Pool and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-09-03 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book details the interactions between the Seeds of Rangiatea, New Zealand’s Maori people of Polynesian origin, and Europe from 1769 to 1900. It provides a case-study of the way Imperial era contact and colonization negatively affected naturally evolving demographic/epidemiologic transitions and imposed economic conditions that thwarted development by precursor peoples, wherever European expansion occurred. In doing so, it questions the applicability of conventional models for analyses of colonial histories of population/health and of development. The book focuses on, and synthesizes, the most critical parts of the story, the health and population trends, and the economic and social development of Maori. It adopts demographic methodologies, most typically used in developing countries, which allow the mapping of broad changes in Maori society, particularly their survival as a people. The book raises general theoretical questions about how populations react to the introduction of diseases to which they have no natural immunity. Another more general theoretical issue is what happens when one society’s development processes are superseded by those of some more powerful force, whether an imperial power or a modern-day agency, which has ingrained ideas about objectives and strategies for development. Finally, it explores how health and development interact. The Maori experience of contact and colonization, lasting from 1769 to circa 1900, narrated here, is an all too familiar story for many other territories and populations, Natives and former colonists. This book provides a case-study with wider ramifications for theory in colonial history, development studies, demography, anthropology and other fields.
