Country study : New Zealand Indigenous governance substantive paper document (2) / Tipene O'Regan.: Z1-1991/1-41-164E-PDF
The issue of indigenous governance in New Zealand has been fundamentally shaped by the outcomes of the Treaty of Waitangi which largely confirmed existing Aboriginal rights in English law. Those Aboriginal rights, however, were rapidly negated by the new settler government which evolved in the forty years after the Treaty signing in 1840. Argument remains over the extent to which the Treaty transformed those rights to legal rights.
