New Zealand in World Affairs IV 1990-2005

Exploring New Zealand's history from 1990 to 2005, this authoritative collection of essays provides a record of the country’s major international preoccupations—from the collapse of the Berlin Wall to the war on terror, the instability in the Pacific, and the threat of global warming. The investigation outlines New Zealand's foreign policy, describing how these developments were officially handled and analyzing how effectively the challenges were addressed. Including topics such as relations between New Zealand and the United States, defense, security, trade policies, and environmental conservation, this fourth installment in the series commissioned by the New Zealand Institute of International Affairs completes a survey of the country's foreign relations since World War II.
