Superdiversity in Settler Societies
Superdiversity has been critiqued by some as being too wedded to elements of modernity and universality, and too little to decoloniality. This chapter acknowledges this critique and explores the options and key elements with regard to a particular group of settler societies—Aotearoa/New Zealand, Canada, and Australia. All three have seen a diversification of domestic diversity as a result of managed migration policy frameworks, but this diversifi…
Visualizing superdiversity and “seeing” urban socio-economic complexity
Recent migration has made traditional destination cities so diverse that many conventional social science concepts and methods have become inadequate to the task of understanding complex diversity, or what is now often termed superdiversity. Here, we address the need for new methods of "seeing" urban superdiversity in two ways. First, we highlight the need to understand urban contexts by examining new combinations and intersections of multiple so…
Multilingual realities/monolingual ideologies
The globalization of the knowledge economy and a concomitant increase in educational mobility have seen greater numbers of international students take up studies in Aotearoa/New Zealand’s education system. As a result of increased educational mobility, alongside other types of migration, ethno-cultural and linguistic diversity has become more common in New Zealand schools. This internationalization of Aotearoa/New Zealand’s education sector has b…
The politics and construction of identity and childhood
Diverse immigrants have significantly transformed the ethnic make-up of New Zealand, and they have brought with them diverse identities to this country. Findings from a doctoral research project which involved exploring Chinese immigrant parents’ identity choices for themselves and their children highlight the complex politics of identity. Within the field of education, children’s acquisition of a positive identity is closely related to valued se…
New Zealanders’ attitudes to Asia and Asian peoples
The geopolitical reorientation of New Zealand from Britain to Asia has occurred over recent decades, and is manifested in the changing mix of New Zealand’s trading partners and in an altered demographic profile for the country. By 2014, seven of New Zealand’s top 10 trading partners were in Asia. New Zealand had multiple Asian-language newspapers, television and radio stations, and websites. In 2013, 23% of Aucklanders were Asian, and by 2021, it…
New diversity, old anxieties in New Zealand
Superdiversity signals the common experience in many countries and cities of the enhanced levels of diversity that are associated with contemporary immigration, yet there are a range of permutations and possibilities. One example of superdiversity - that of a particular group of settler societies represented by New Zealand - is explored, as the colonization of indigenous peoples has occurred alongside a nation-building project that centres on mas…
Competing for Talent
In 2003, New Zealand introduced a novel “expression of interest” (EOI) system for selecting skilled migrants. In 2012, Australia adopted a similar approach while the Canadian government is proposing to adopt a variant of the EOI system in 2015. From being a follower of Canadian and Australian immigration policy initiatives, New Zealand has become the innovator. This paper examines the reasons for this significant policy shift and reviews some out…
Meaningful inconsistencies
Bamboo Networks
As part of a larger research project examining the settlement of immigrant business owners in Auckland, New Zealand, this research examines the nature of the connections that these Chinese business owners have with their employees, suppliers and customers. The results suggest a significant reliance on networks that involve co-ethnics, especially for the China-born but even for those Chinese business owners who were New Zealand-born. Overall, the …

Laissez-Faire Multiculturalism and Relational Embeddedness
The rapid diversification of immigration to New Zealand post-1987 has made Auckland, as the nation's key gateway city, both culturally and demographically superdiverse, and the location of considerable immigrant business development. We focus here on the development of ethnic precincts as the manifestation of this transformation of the cityscape. The neo-liberalism of the 1980s continues to prevail in the unwillingness of central and local govern…
Introduction
Immigration, Multiculturalism and Geography
Changes in the sources of immigrants have generated a major alteration to the ethnic composition of New Zealand society and encouraged policy shifts towards a multicultural society. These changes have stimulated considerable resistance, however, with many New Zealanders believing there are too many immigrants in the country, especially from Asia and the Pacific Islands–although such anti-immigrant attitudes were believed to be stronger among thos…
Reporting Superdiversity. The Mass Media and Immigration in New Zealand
The mass media have long been seen as an important mechanism in constructing and brokering relations between host and immigrant minorities. Their role has typically been portrayed as endorsing, if not, initiating racist imagery. New Zealand significantly altered its recruitment of immigrants in terms of source countries in 1986–87. The resulting superdiversity presents new challenges for the mainstream media. In the early phase of this recently e…
Responding to regional labour demand
Intergenerational Transnationalism
This paper explores some of the issues associated with the nature of contemporary transnationalism and the particular experiences and strategies of a specific cohort of migrants, the 1.5 generation. Based on a study of East Asian migrant adolescents to New Zealand, we argue that the experiences and strategies of this generation differ from those of their parents, the original decision‐makers in the migration process, as well as from the historica…

A Contemporary Political Economy of Labour Migration in New Zealand
A political economy of labour migration approach was initially developed to provide an explanation of the arrival of Pacific migrant workers in New Zealand in the 1960s and 1970s. The second period of non-European migration (post-1986) has occurred in a significantly different political and economic context. However, research, political debate and policy has remained focused on the nature of supply. This paper identifies some of the key silences …
Divided loyalties and fractured sovereignty
New Zealand represents one example of the way in which a colonially-inspired transnationalism linking the country with the UK has been supplemented by new and intensified forms of transnationalism encompassing the Pacific and Asia. Our focus in this paper is on the nature of an emergent Pacific diaspora involving primarily Polynesian communities and the challenges that this transnationalism presents to the state and national identity. The transna…
Past and Present
The paper discusses historical and emerging dimensions of citizenship within Aotearoa/New Zealand. Drawing on Turner’s work, it explores the utility of Marshallian distinctions of civil, political and social citizenship. These evolutionary notions are seen as problematic, given the historical treatment of the Chinese community, and the abrogation of the Treaty of Waitangi with respect to European–Maori relationships. Ideas of the “worker citizen”…
Managing non-standard work arrangements
Non-standard work lacks the predictability of standard employment arrangements and relationships. As a result, it requires a different approach as workers self-manage their working environment and rhythm. This article explores the self-management and self-policing strategies of a group of skilled and professional non-standard workers in New Zealand. The issues that are related to managing time (including time-off), space and the home-work nexus a…
Recalling Aotearoa
Cultural and national identity have changed dramatically in New Zealand during the latter part of the twentieth century, with the emergence of policies on biculturalism, the development of new immigrant communities, and the increased focus on the Treaty of Waitangi and the settlement of treaty claims. Recalling Aotearoa examines why these changes have occurred, and considers the new directions for New Zealand as a nation
International Migration and the New Zealand Economy. A Long-Run Perspective
This study focuses on the macroeconomic sectoral and labor market consequences of international migration in New Zealand with particular emphasis on the relationship between migration and long-term economic trends. The Joanna model of the New Zealand economy is used to estimate the effects of changes in net migration on prices quantities and macroeconomic aggregates such as gross domestic product after markets have had time to adjust up to the ye…
The renegotiation of ethnic relations in New Zealand
The 1970s were a period of ethnic activism amongst Maori groups in New Zealand as they sought to politicise the issues of land, language and culture. In the 1980s, these have led to important changes in state policy, notably in the attempt to give a new status to a treaty signed in 1840 and to provide a form of redress for Maori. This article describes these ethnic politics and some of the key changes in state policy. It ends by asking how the do…
