    Tourist development, ancestral land : a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment [sic] of the requirements for the Diploma in Landscape Architecture [Lincoln College]

    Brabant, S.
    Abstract
    It begins with a brief historical overview of Ngati Kahu prior to European settlement and up to the present day and goes on to briefly describe Karikari Peninsular. The third chapter attempts to delineate Maori perspectives with respect to land and includes views on ancestral land, mythology (worldviews) and wahi tapu. Chapter four deals first with general tourism issues from a Pacific/Third World slant, attempting to draw parallels with Karikari and suggesting possible alternatives to large scale resort development such as participatory, sustainable tourism. A general overview of New Zealand tourism follows including a Maori perspective on Manaakitanga. The conclusion to this section attempts to interweave aspects of sustainability, social costs and policy direction with tapping tourism's potential. Chapter five covers the proposed development itself - what was intended by the developers and why objections to this have been successful. Three possible options for future development on Karikari are then briefly considered. Chapter six deals with planning issues from a Maori perspective; the problems Maori face in the planning system as it is and suggestions for positive action to better plan for Maori needs. Chapter seven concerns emerging issues in contemporary New Zealand. It kicks off with an historical overview of Maori economic development, noting how initiative in this area has been stifled by a consistent erosion of the power base from different directions. It continues with a general discussion of the issues raised so far in this work and goes on to comment on the relevance of these in a wider context, one which affects our very identity as New Zealanders. This is interwoven with a number of suggestions for positive action. Chapter eight, the conclusion, continues with these themes, highlights a number of key points and draws together the threads....
