Asians and the New Multiculturalism in Aotearoa New Zealand
presents thought-provoking new research on New Zealand’s
fastest-growing demographic: the geographically, nationally, and
historically diverse Asian communities. This collection examines
the unresolved tensions between a dynamic biculturalism and the
recognition of other ethnic minorities by looking at such questions
as What kind of multicultural framework best suits New Zealand’s
rapidly expanding ethnic diversity? Can the Treaty of Waitangi,
initially set up to accommodate British settlers and to recognize
the tangata whenua, serve as the basis for New Zealand’s
immigration policy in the new millennium? And Can all citizens
embrace multiculturalism? Multiculturalism and Asian-ness are
addressed together for the first time in this articulate addition
to the ongoing debate about the population diversity of Aotearoa
New Zealand.
