Summary

Buddy Mikaere provides a highly readable historical overview of early settlement in New Zealand, and examines the impact of colonisation and later a developing urban world on Maori and their traditional way of life. Today, the importance of marae and community remains strong, as do many time-honoured rituals. The renaissance of Maori culture has included the revival of the language and the flourishing of creative arts, including: whakairo - carving kapa haka and haka - performing arts waka ama - outrigger canoe racing ta moko - tattooing music, arts and crafts. Maori in Aotearoa New Zealand introduces visitors and locals alike to the culture and customs of Maori in contemporary New Zealand.
