Description

Governing New Zealand by G. A. Wood. 'Who makes the decisions in New Zealand? How are decisions made? In Governing New Zealand, the author describes the Cabinet - the country's formal power holder - along with the bureaucracy and agencies which serve it and Parliament which observes and criticises it. The role of electors and how they choose is discussed, and those crucial actors on the political scene, political parties and groups and interests, are also described and explained. This comprehensive study is rounded off with an account of an often neglected and yet vital level of New Zealand democracy, its local government - of particular interest at a time when it is to be subjected to a massive overhaul. Updated to early 1988, Governing New Zealand covers radical changes made or proposed by the Lange Labour Government.'
