Te Ohaki Tapu : John Stuart Mill & Ngati Maniapoto
Paperback Edition: 1
This book outlines the impact on New Zealand public policy of the teachings and economic theories of the 19th-century Utilitarian philosopher and economist John Stuart Mill. The Utilitarian basis of public policy in New Zealand, which is still apparent today, explains the marked difference in approaches to lawmaking between New Zealand and countries such as Australia and the United States.
Te Ohaki Tapu is the agreement made between the five tribes of the Rohe Potae, led by Ngati Maniapoto, and the New Zealand government in 1885, and is far more elaborate than the Treaty of Waitangi. It is a detailed agreement made between a colonial government seeking land for the main trunk railway line, and iwi who sought access to employment, technology and development finance.
