| NOTES: |
"The treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840 by William Hobson, representing the British Crown, and over 500 Maori chiefs. The British considered that they had acquired sovereignty over New Zealand, but to Maori people the treaty had a very different significance. Claudia Orange offers new interpretations of the treaty in New Zealand history from 1840 to the present day." |
