	Peter Fraser Summary
		Peter Fraser (1884-1950) was a prominent socialist and Labour party politician of New Zealand.
		Both New Zealand and Australia came to realize that the strategic and military role of the United States was as crucial in their area as it had been in Europe; and both accepted the challenge to participate in bringing about an improved postwar pattern in the Pacific.
		John A. Lee, a notable socialist within the Party, vehemently disapproved of the party's perceived drift towards the political centre, and strongly criticised Savage and Fraser.

	World Socialist Party - History
		It is a sad proof of the socialist contention that the Russian revolution put the clock back as far as the growth of the socialist movement is concerned that the Association ceased in 1922, and that it was not for another eight years that socialists in New Zealand organised themselves again.
		The new SPNZ tried to get workers to recognise that it was the private ownership of the means of production that was the cause of their problems, and that only Socialism was the solution.
		On the political field, the Party exposed the claims of Labour to be able to govern in the workers' interests, and of the Communist Party that socialism was being built in Russia, both of which were popular views at that time, but are now discredited.

	Socialist Party Archive - New Zelaand: False Left Hope - The Rise and Fall of the Alliance (Sept 02)
		Labour was seen as the party of the working class for decades; a social democratic party that was considered the chief author of the welfare state, one of the most extensive in the world.
		New Zealand was held up internationally as a model for the free market agenda, surpassing even the neo-liberal 'experiment' in Chile under the vicious right wing dictator, Agusto Pinochet.
		The party did at least oppose the sending of SAS troops to Afghanistan (the Labour/Alliance government and the Nationals were assured to pass the legislation), building its credit with young radical voters.

	Dealing with Wayward New Zealand
		New Zealand's antinuclear policies lend credibility to a wider South Pacific antinuclear movement that seeks to deny alternative military bases to the U.S. This movement is supported by pro-Soviet trade unions in Australia and New Zealand.
		New Zealand's small naval defense force of four aging Leander-class frigates and 6 P-3 O@ion antisubmarine aircraft would not be able to defeat the most modern Soviet attack submarines.
		New Zealand has not been able to compensate for the loss of access to U.S. intelligence, U.S. spare parts, ammunition stocks, and the knowledge of new developments in military doctrine that had been available in its ANZUS relationship.24 New Zealand military officers have strongly opposed Ubor's antinuclear policies.

	New Zealand: Alliance Party conference calls for âleft regroupmentâ (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Eighteen months after the left-wing Alliance Party in Aotearoa/New Zealand suffered a damaging split and the loss of all its remaining MPs in a snap general election, there are signs that the party is (somewhat belatedly) trying to reconnect with its working class support.
		In her speech to the conference, newly-elected party President, Jill Ovens, said that the Alliance was committed to becoming, “a broad inclusive party of the Left with policies based on socialist principles – democracy, equality and social ownership”.
		Socialist Alternative (CWI in Aotearoa/NZ), welcomes genuine attempts to create a new broad socialist party; this would make it possible for Marxist ideas to gain a hearing among new layers of the working class and oppressed.

	Rise and fall of the New Zealand Alliance Party
		The clear hostility to the establishment parties, however, means that no party has a solid base, with all having experienced sharp fluctuations in support.
		A post-election multi-party conference took place in 1991 and later that year the Alliance Party was established, with five constituent parties: the Democrats, Manu Motuhake, New Labour, the Green Party, and the Liberals, a splinter from the Nationals.
		For new left formations to succeed they must first and foremost put forward a socialist programme attractive to the poor, to those in work, to women, to youth and to the most oppressed, and also to the small business people and farmers who face ruin under capitalism.

		Such a situation would assist to develop a new set of politicians who would need to be tribunes of the people as opposed to being servants of capital.
		New measures needed New Zealand's whole political system needs urgent restructuring and the people on the worksites and in community organisations need more regular and direct control over MPs and also need to be able to require any MP to face a recall vote and elect a replacement MP.
		Although most New Zealanders are accountable daily or weekly to some form of authority a number of MPs will oppose this simply because they are beholden to private corporates; nor will they want to face the people and make themselves accountable.

		The concern is that readers of the article may have gained the impression that New Zealand's democratic socialist party, the Alliance, is dead and gone.
		The Alliance Party is running 12 candidates in key electorates in the 2005 election, and as a registered political party (requiring 500 or more financial) members, we are running a substantial number of candidates for the party-list vote in our MMP system.
		This new “broad left” party has not materialised, but McCarten's actions around forming this new party were widely reported in the mainstream New Zealand media, including an article from NZPA on February 24, 2005 which is currently still viewable at <http://www.stuff.co.nz/stuff/0,2106,3197428a6160,00.html>.

		His pivotal role in persuading the government to allow hemp cultivation to begin in New Zealand is one of the things of which he is most proud.
		Nandor took notice; he had been sympathetic to the Green Party of Aotearoa NZ for a long time, and this was heartening proof that involvement in representative politics did not preclude involvement in direct action politics.
		Nandor joined the party that day, but not before speaking at the conference that made that decision, and it was a challenging speech; he asked why the Green Party wasn't attracting young people.

		Both main electoral parties (the New Zealand Labour Party and the New Zealand National Party) feature significantly, with the most notable of the issues contested being the economy, especially from the 1970s as world events began to intrude upon New Zealand's previous policy of protectionism, and foreign affairs.
		That nuclear technology and other environmental issues were becoming significant political factors in New Zealand in the 1970s is shown by the rise of the Values Party.
		Outside the realm of electoral politics there are a variety of items produced by right-wing parties of various seriousness, including the National Front and the Imperial British Conservative Party, and a large collection of materials produced by various incarnations of the New Zealand Communist Party.

	These Marxist Principles Cannot be Destroyed
		The smears against the words "socialist" and "soviet" were designed to whittle away support for the achievements of the first workers' socialist state, to undermine the eternal and indestructible principle of proletarian internationalism.
		The news media of press and radio was strengthened by television "documentaries." Novelists, playwrights, artists and entertainers were handsomely rewarded for anti-communist smears.
		But to say that the proletariat of a developed capitalist nation like New Zealand must unite with local "patriotic" capitalists against foreign capitalists is a form of social-chauvinism that keeps the local bourgeoisie in power.

	New Zeal: Reds Taking Over Green Party?
		In choosing Russel Norman as their new male co-leader, over Nandor Tanczos, the Green Party has sent a clear signal that socialism, not environmentalism is top of their agenda.
		The Green Party is now dominated by socialists, several of whom have links with Australia's largest Marxist-Leninist group, the Democratic Socialist Party (now Democratic Socialist Perspective) or local Marxist groups such as the DSP's former New Zealand "sister" parties, the Workers Communist League and the Socialist Action League.
		Catherine Delahunty, a senior Green Party member, runs teaching at the school, while several other prominent Greens are on the board of trustees.
