NCE 302 - New Zealand Maori: Aotearoa Cultural & Natural History
4 Hour(s)
What does it mean to be tangata whenua of Aotearoa? How does one live with a non-Western identity while immersed in a Western dominated society? This course and cultural immersion experience considers these questions by closely examining the interrelationship between the human society and biological and physical environments of Aotearoa, and the interpersonal and societal aspects of the bi-cultural interactions between Maori and Pakeha (European-descended) New Zealanders. It explores how indigenous Maori’s cultural identity incorporates ecological phenomena and interacts with a surrounding hegemonic (dominant) society dominated by a non-Maori Western culture. The course also highlights the traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) of indigenous Maori about their natural environment. In this CCE course you will learn about New Zealand’s past and present cultural and natural history, and how Aotearoa’s two predominant cultural perspectives view various contemporary social and environmental issues ranging from drug and addiction recovery, economic development, health and food sovereignty, natural resource management, and others.
