Maori and Parliament vividly depicts the strategies and tactics used by Maori politicians and their supporters to alter Parliament and the ways these have been adapted to New Zealand’s changing political arrangements, particularly the Mixed Member Proportional system (MMP) or ‘More Maori in Parliament’. New Zealand is the only country where the indigenous people have electorates that represent them and where they can choose to be on a general or Maori electoral roll. Throughout history, Maori parliamentarians have looked to foster unity across party lines while still supporting different political loyalties.
