Against the Tide : Aotearoa New Zealand in World Affairs Volume V 2006-2025

The fifth volume in a series, Against the Tide questions the narrative that we live in a uniquely troubled world, and sets the mid-2020s against the longer arc of New Zealand's engagement in world affairs. Through thematic essays spanning two decades, the contributors illuminate what is new and what is long running, and what choices Aotearoa now has as it faces rapid geopolitical, economic, technological and climate shifts. This volume offers essential historical context and practical insights for policymakers, academics, students, and anyone interested in informed public debate. This is a flagship research publication published by the New Zealand Institute of International Affairs-Whare Tawahi-a-mahi i Aotearoa in collaboration with Te Herenga Waka University Press.
