Resistance : an indigenous response to neoliberalism

Bargh, Maria, 1977- (Added Author).

Summary: New Zealand is one of the world leaders of neoliberalism, and since 1984 its government has pursued neoliberal policies with a confidence that few other governments possess. Resistance is a collection by New Zealand indigenous Mā ori academics, activists, and leaders on resistance to neoliberalism. This unique book features a range of views that are often invisible to current debates on globalization.
