Becoming Aotearoa | Book Launch
Scorpio Books and Massey University Press warmly invite you to the launch of Becoming Aotearoa by Michael Belgrave. All are welcome, and refreshments are provided. Please send in your RSVP and pre-order your book today!
In the first major national history of Aotearoa New Zealand to be published in 20 years, Professor Michael Belgrave advances the notion that New Zealand’s two peoples — tangata whenua and subsequent migrants — have together built an open, liberal society based on a series of social contracts.
Frayed though they may sometimes be, these contracts have created a country that is distinct. This engaging new look at our history examines how.
