		New Zealand is the only modern nation founded on a single treaty between one indigenous race and one metropolitan power.
		New Zealand women in the nineteenth century were very much in touch with the new ideas on women's rights that were becoming current in the northern hemisphere.
		Although twelve thousand miles separated the suffragists of New Zealand from the mainspring of their cause in the USA and Britain, they were nevertheless aware of being part of a world-wide movement.

	Neo-Liberalism Down-Under: Reflections on the 'New Zealand Experiment' by Pat Moloney (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		New Zealand's experience has mimicked certain trends in other countries, but is unique in the purity of the theory applied, and in the extent and speed of its economic, social and political adjustments.
		The 'New Right' has come to be seen as a new coalition of right-wing groups determined to rescue society not only from the economic and political malaise induced by the creeping collectivism of the post-war years, but just as importantly from moral and social decay arising from rampant 'permissiveness' and 'hedonism'.
		New Zealand did not imitate other nations, but set them an example'.[55] Around the turn of the century New Zealanders thought of themselves as 'leading the world' in social legislation: it was one of the many ways in New Zealand was 'distinguishing' itself as a nation.

	New Zealand: a Miracle Economy?
		New Zealand's simple political structure has made it remarkably easy for radical neo-liberal policies, supported by a small but focussed coalition of business and libertarian interests, to be implemented in the face of the will of the New Zealand public as expressed in the 1984, 1990 and 1993 general elections.
		New Zealand's GDP remains well short of its potential, given its benign natural environment and Pacific rim location, the skills of New Zealanders at home and abroad, and the skills of immigrants.
		New Zealand's 1990s' growth rate should be considerably higher than the post-war average, because growth was so slow in the late-1980s and because New Zealand manufacturing was able to profit from the development of advanced technological and business skills that characterised the 1960s and 1970s (the "learning curve" or "infant industry" decades).

		In New Zealand, the term "liberalism" has been used by a large variety of groups and organisations, but usually refers to a support for individual liberties and limited government.
		Unqualified liberalism is less common; in its extreme form it can be known as "libertarianism", although this term is used less in New Zealand than in some other countries.

	Basic Page
		After 1991, however, when the New Zealand Labour government had fallen to the more extreme economic rationalists of Jim Bolger's National government, the New Zealand GST and industrial legislation was used, with some success by Paul Keating in 1993, to show reluctant Labor voters in Australia the dire consequences of a local Liberal-Country Party government.
		New Zealand was an issue in the important New South Wales by-election at Hurstville in early 1939.
		In 1939 Australian observers were also correct in their insistence that New Zealand Labour, attempting import and exchange controls as an antidote to the flight of capital and the run down of overseas reserves, was in a parlous condition.

	ACT New Zealand - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Some critics claim that New Zealand's high crime rate is due to the economic structural reforms known as Rogernomics instituted by Labour and National during the 1980s and early 1990s, although supporters point out that the crime rate has been growing since the 1970s and peaked at the end of the reforms.
		It holds its annual general meetings during the annual general meetings of ACT New Zealand and the members of the Board of Trustees also serve as board members of the Association of Consumers and Taxpayers.

	The New Liberalism - Cambridge University Press
		The 'New Liberalism' of the late nineteenth/early twentieth century is an unjustifiably neglected strand of the liberal tradition.

	TCS Daily - A US-New Zealand FTA?
		For the New Zealand side, the Forum was a useful reminder that the differences we have had with the United States are akin to differnces within a family.
		The fact that New Zealand is fighting along side the US, but is not allowed to train with the US, is clearly absurd, and is increasingly seen as such by both sides.
		New Zealand is not a politically divisive issue in Washington.

	Why Freedom Allows Diversity And Fosters Tolerance (True, not bogus tolerance from conservatism!) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		New Zealand laws that treated Chinese as second-class citizens were repugnant.
		This is true liberalism - the term liberalism used in New Zealand context always means this meaning, not the bogus liberalism we see in the US that should be called social democratic thinking (aka socialism with Western European/Antipode characteristics, to paraphrase Deng Xiaoping's famous saying ;-)).
		By now of course the term "liberalism" is understood in America to mean socialist claptrap, and socialists try to "reject all labels" rather than accept the label of "liberal" here.

	Liberalism and Globalization by Jean-Pierre Lehmann - The Globalist > > Global Society
		But all across the globe, liberalism as such is perhaps the most important feature of successful societies.
		All of that is why I am convinced that liberalism is a universal doctrine, the most basic premise of which is to oppose dogmatism in any form.
		Whatever is bothersome about the “neo” part, liberalism as such appears to be nothing less than the key to allowing a society to operate successfully in the modern, globalized world.

	NZ gay law 'to make moral wasteland'
		Representatives of a new inter-religious dialogue centre at the Australian Catholic University has stressed the role of Pope Benedict as an apostle of dialogue and peace in a first visit for the centre to the Muslim-founded Australian Intercultural Society.
		Cardinal Thomas Williams of Wellington said New Zealand's Civil Union Bill, which aims to bolster the rights of same-sex couples, is part of the erosion of values that is turning New Zealand into a "moral wasteland".
		In an essay, The Spiritual Bankruptcy of Liberalism, in yesterday's New Zealand Herald newspaper, he also attacked reforms in the past two decades that had legalised prostitution and homosexuality, reshaped the economy and liberally amended abortion law.

		This move resulted in the New Zealand economy rebounding from near-collapse to the point where it is now rated by the Fraser Institute's Economic Freedom of the World Index as #2 in the world.
		He worked for the New Zealand Forest Service, on North Sea oil rigs, and drove a truck for his father's company, so he is no ivory-tower intellectual – having gotten his hands dirty with real work – and experienced first-hand the deadening hand of government regulation.
		Since New Zealand at this time had adopted a new election system that made it much easier for new parties to enter parliament, ACT was transformed into a new political party.

	New Zealand Sociology Journal Vol.18 (2)
		In New Zealand this took the form of the introduction of neo-liberal ideas and policies by the 1984-1990 Labour Government in a country hitherto rightly considered as a bastion of Keynesian Welfarism.
		He calls for a “new imperialism” – one compatible with human rights and cosmopolitan values – in order to sort out the problems of rogue states and the chaos of pre-modern states.
		It is widely accepted by scholars of intentional communities that conflict is a threat to group stability, and indeed, conflict exists within New Zealand’s intentional communities, however, many of them are remarkable for their longevity.

	Press release: 2001 AHA Book Awards & Awards for Scholarly Distinction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Placing Bridgman’s attainment of language in the context of the social, philosophical, and religious controversies of the mid-nineteenth century, Freeberg perceptively anatomizes a complex relationship at once exploitative and tender, in which Bridgman became not merely the product of Howe’s pedagogy but his full and sometimes recalcitrant partner in their remarkable accomplishments.
		Established in 1968 by friends of John K. Fairbank, an eminent historian of China and a president of the AHA in 1967, the prize is an annual award offered for an outstanding book in the history of China proper, Vietnam, Chinese Central Asia, Mongolia, Korea, or Japan since the year 1800.
		Based on a very extensive knowledge of primary and secondary sources and on a sophisticated understanding of the working of language and the importance of style, it convincingly argues that Italian humanism began as a secular movement well before Petrarch in a number of northern Italian cities in the 13th century.
