The book is written by Judith Binney, a New Zealand historian and author. Binney has written extensively about the history of New Zealand, and her work has been praised for its clarity and its insights into the relationship between Maori and Pakeha (non-Maori) New Zealanders.
The Urewera Region
The Urewera region is a vast, mountainous area in the central North Island of New Zealand. The region is home to a number of Maori tribes, including the Tuhoe, Ngati Awa, and Whakatohea. The Urewera region is also home to a number of national parks, including Te Urewera National Park.
The Urewera region has a long and complex history. The Maori people have lived in the region for over 700 years, and they have a strong connection to the land. The New Zealand government has also had a significant impact on the Urewera region, and its policies have often been at odds with the interests of the Maori people.
The New Zealand Government and the Urewera Region
The New Zealand government has a long history of involvement in the Urewera region. The government first established a presence in the region in the 1840s, and it has been involved in the region ever since.
The government's policies in the Urewera region have often been at odds with the interests of the Maori people. The government has confiscated Maori land, restricted Maori access to the region, and suppressed Maori culture.
The government's policies have had a devastating impact on the Maori people of the Urewera region. The Maori people have lost their land, their culture, and their way of life.
The Encircled Lands Movement
The Encircled Lands movement was a Maori protest movement that emerged in the Urewera region in the late 19th century. The movement was led by Te Kooti Arikirangi Te Turuki, a Maori leader who had been unjustly imprisoned by the New Zealand government.
The Encircled Lands movement sought to return confiscated Maori land to Maori ownership. The movement also sought to protect Maori culture and to ensure that Maori people had a say in the decisions that affected their lives.
The Encircled Lands movement was successful in achieving some of its goals. The government returned some confiscated Maori land to Maori ownership, and it also agreed to consult with Maori people on decisions that affected their lives.
Encircled Lands: Te Urewera 1820-1921 is a valuable contribution to the historiography of New Zealand. The book provides a detailed account of the relationship between the Maori people and the New Zealand government in the Urewera region during the 19th and early 20th centuries.
Binney's book is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the history of New Zealand, the history of the Maori people, or the relationship between Maori and Pakeha New Zealanders.
