Recognising rangatiratanga through co-management : the Waikato River system

Recognising rangatiratanga through co-management : the Waikato River system

Samuel George Wevers 2013

Exposes the complexities posed by the different co-management regimes of Māori and the NZ government, analysing varying ways that power is shared with Māori with regard to natural resources. Considers whether the case of the Waikato River co-management regime is consistent with the Treaty of Waitangi. Argues that co-management is a key institutional form through which the Crown can meet its Treaty obligations in the post-settlement era.
