Journal of New Zealand & Pacific Studies 10.2 is out now!

Intellect is pleased to announce that Journal of New Zealand & Pacific Studies 10.2 is out now!

 

This issue of the Journal of New Zealand & Pacific Studies brings together four articles and one report. These are a foretaste of the types of discussions expected at the 27th annual conference of the New Zealand Studies Association, which will take place in June 2023 and will be co-hosted by Stockholm University and the University of Turku. The conference theme, Between Nations/Across Seas: The Transnational and Transcultural Pacific, is reflected in the contributions to this issue which explore questions of voyaging, navigation and exploration, early Indigenous encounters and colonial powers, Pacific activism and decolonization and the contemporary geopolitical situation in the Pacific.

Aims & Scope

 

This trans-disciplinary peer reviewed publication focuses on the range of issues and subjects which are relevant to New Zealand and Pacific studies, with a priority for the latter given to Polynesia and the South Pacific. Disciplines covered include the humanities and the social sciences and subjects such as cultural studies, history, literature, film, anthropology, politics and sociology. Each issue of this publication aims to establish a balance between papers on New Zealand and papers on the South Pacific with a reports and book reviews section included.

 

Journal of New Zealand & Pacific Studies is sponsored by the New Zealand Studies Association and hosted by the University of Vienna. It has replaced the key publication NZSA Bulletin of New Zealand Studies.
