Focusing upon the Maori tribes of New Zealand, topics include the historical origins of the Ngati Apa decision—one of the most controversial modern decisions on Maori rights—how the Foreshore and Seabed Act (FSA) compares with schemes created in other countries with indigenous inhabitants, how the FSA has led to major changes in the country's political landscape, and how it stacks up against international human rights and environmental laws. This detailed study also explores New Zealand’s legislation and how it has undermined the rights of Maori tribes, tipping the reconciliation process too far in favor of the state.
