Contents: New voices on Aotearoa's role in the world / Nina Hall -- Tackling waste colonialism / Tina Ngata -- New solidarities, old alliances / Max Harris -- Coral consciousness : Aotearoa's relationship with Moana / Tulia Thompson -- Rethinking the China -- New Zealand relationship / Zeng Dazheng -- From laggard to leader : getting New Zealand businesses to respect human rights at home and abroad / Amelia Evans -- Precious lessons from New Zealand's contribution to peacebuilding / Fairlie Chappuis -- Epilogue: Towards a transformational foreign policy / Thomas Nash.
Summary: New Zealand looks out to a turbulent world. Long standing alliances are fracturing, nationalism is surging and the oceans are rising. The contributors within these pages are not, as editor Nina Hall notes, conventional foreign policy voices, but these are far from conventional times. These contributors ask that we fundamentally rethink Aotearoa's role in the world and offer practical ideas grounded in progressive values and evidence. (Publisher)
