Abstract:

<p>With a history now stretching back four decades, <span class="highlight customHighlight">Pacific festivals of Aotearoa</span> assert a multicultural identity <span class="highlight customHighlight">of</span> New Zealand and situate <span class="highlight customHighlight">the</span> country squarely within a sea <span class="highlight customHighlight">of</span> islands. In this volume, Jared Mackley-Crump gives a provocative look at <span class="highlight customHighlight">the</span> changing demographics and cultural landscape <span class="highlight customHighlight">of</span> a place frequently viewed through a bicultural lens, Pākehā and Māori.</p>
