"This collection brings together over forty years of thought and comment by Dr. Whatarangi Winiata on Māori spirituality, social development, education and political affairs. Each chapter discusses the importance and impact of Māori management of Māori matters and the ongoing pursuit of tino rangatiratanga in all areas of life. Dr. Winiata has worked to achieve Māori development, well-being and attainment of aspirations over decades: driving the iwi development programme Whakatupuranga Rua Mano that led to the foundation of the first contemporary wānanga, Te Wānanga o Raukawa; being key in restructuring the working of Te Hāhi Mihingare; galvanising the New Zealand Māori Council to hold the Crown accountable over fisheries, forestry, language and broadcasting; and co-founding the Māori Party with Dame Tariana Turia and Sir Pita Sharples. These papers, curated by Dr. Winiata and Daphne Luke provide an analysis of recent Māori experience, pursuit of self-determination and history of Aotearoa"--Publisher information.
