Effective Exclusion?

Geoff Park, Effective Exclusion - An Exploratory Overview of Crown Actions and Maori Responses Concerning the Indigenous Flora and Fauna, 1912 – 1983.

The report is divided into three parts:

Part One traces Crown actions in relation to a series of indigenous ecosystem themes: swamp ecosystems; coastal ecosystems; and lake and river ecosystems.

Part Two focuses on Crown actions concerning what has variously been termed the preservation, protection or conservation of the indigenous flora and fauna. It covers three themes: scenery preservation; national parks; and animals and plant protection.

Part Three addresses two areas where the Crown, in its actions to preserve the indigenous flora and fauna and exercise its authority over them, recruited support services: the acclimatisation societies for animal protection; and the Crown’s own scientific research agencies for determining the value of the indigenous flora and fauna in the conservation estate (14-15).

Report commissioned by the Waitangi Tribunal, released 2001. Dr Park was an ecologist by training, and author of the books Nga Uruora, the Groves of Life: History and Ecology in a New Zealand Landscape and Theatre Country: Essays on Landscape and Whenua.
