Why care about the past? Why teach, research and write history? In
this volume, leading and emerging scholars, activists and those
working in the public sector, archives and museums bring their
expertise to provide timely direction and informed debate about the
importance of history.Primarily concerned with Aotearoa (the Maori
name for New Zealand), the essays within traverse local, national
and global knowledge to offer new approaches that consider the
ability and potential for history to `make a difference' in the
early twenty-first century. Authors adopt a wide range of
methodological approaches, including social, cultural, Maori, oral,
race relations, religious, public, political, economic, visual and
material history. The chapters engage with work in postcolonial and
cultural studies.The volume is divided into three sections that
address the themes of challenging power and privilege, the
co-production of historical knowledge and public and material
histories. Collectively, the potential for dialogue across previous
sub-disciplinary and public, private and professional divides is
pursued.
