Softcover. Condition: Near Fine. No Dust Jacket. Second (revised) edition, November 2015, of a title first published in October 2015. 314, [2 (blank)] pages + illustrations on 10 plate leaves. Page dimensions: 210 x 147mm. "This book has been written by eight well-qualified New Zealanders from a variety of political backgrounds…- National, Labour, NZ First, Greens, ACT and Libertarians. They share a concern at the way that democracy and equality of citizenship are being undermined by the ever-increasing demands of some tribalist groups - part-Maoris - for special rights and privileges over and above other New Zealanders. The Maori people who ceded sovereignty to Queen Victoria in 1840 no longer exist. Their descendants, usually with more European blood than Maori, are one of numerous ethnic groups in modern New Zealand society in which we participate with rights based on citizenship, not ethnicity. In such a society no single group should be entitled to rights, privileges, or special funding that is not available to others." - from blurb on rear cover.
