The most up-to-date multi-authored revisionist history of Aotearoa New Zealand. This book tests the idea that New Zealand history can be explained as a quest for 'national identity' and considers whether narratives that rely on the 'colony-to-nation' storyline are still relevant today. Featuring previously unpublished research, this book proposes that history and identity have been shaped by culture, community, class, region and gender, and that these have been (and remain) more important than ideas of evolving nationhood.
