ATF Press Christianity in the Post Secular West
Book SynopsisWhat is the future of Christianity in the twenty-first century West? Are Western societies growing more secular, leaving cherished religious traditions behind? Or have modernity''s secularising currents generated equally powerful desecularising and resacralising currents? Should secularisation theory, the dominant paradigm in the social scientific study of religion for much of the twentieth century, be thrown in the dustbin, as some scholars have suggested? Or does it remain useful, even indispensable, despite its limitations? How are globalising processes, bringing diverse religious communities into increasingly close contact, affecting Western Christian communities? Such questions have attracted increasing attention from scholars in many disciplines during recent years and are at the heart of the essays in this volume.

Oratia Media Auckland: The Twentieth-Century Story
Book SynopsisMore biography than conventional history, this substantial work tracks the changing personality of Auckland through the twentieth century, as recorded by its inhabitants in diaries and oral histories, as well as newspapers and formal records. Auckland in 1999 would have been unrecognisable to the city''s residents in 1900. Professor Paul Moon explores this transformation in themes including housing, gardening, the harbours, tangata whenua struggles, shopping culture, the immigrant experience -- and the pervading sense that Auckland was simultaneously at the edge of the world and at its centre.

Massey University Press New Zealand's Foreign Service: A History
Book SynopsisSince 1943, during war, humanitarian and natural disasters and flashpoints of global tension, one government department has been charged with the critical role of representing New Zealand's interests overseas. In doing so, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (and its predecessors) has needed to respond to ever-evolving political and military allegiances, trade globalisation, economic threats, natural disasters and military conflict on behalf of a small nation that seeks to engage on the global stage while maintaining the principles that underpin its political institutions.For more than 75 years the ministry has been served by some remarkable people, dedicated to an organisation that has reflected New Zealand's developing sense of nationhood and place in world. This history of the foreign service, edited by one of New Zealand's foremost historians, captures the high stakes, skill and intelligence involved in the development of a unique organisation.

Te Papa Press Tiny Statements: A Social History of Aotearoa New
Book SynopsisThe award-winning authors of this small book with a big heart delve into Te Papa's collections of over 1600 badges to examine how New Zealanders have used badges to join, belong, resist, defy and celebrate. From protest groups and Girl guides to sports clubs, animal breeds, tino rangatiratanga and suffrage, there has been a pin for almost every New Zealand cause and endeavour. Through different themes, they explore what we've worn over the years and why, and New Zealanders' passion for badges, for 'joining and belonging'. With a lively text and a wide range, this is accessible social history at its best.Trade ReviewExcerpts in the Spinoff review of books. "A treasure trove of Aotearoa history, people and place, told through the medium of the badge."; Art News, Autumn 2023, reviewed by Linda Tyler.Newsroom, reviewed by Steve Braunias. "What gorgeous works of art. I'd rather frame them than wear them ... the badges float in the white pages of Tiny Statements, torn from the bodies of their wearers, left to exist as the bric-a-brac of the New Zealand way of life." ; Kete Books extract of Margaret's magical scarf.; Ensemble magazine, Sunday Star-Times, reviewed by Tyson Beckett. "Like the objects in its pages, Tiny Statements is small but mighty."; NZ Booklovers, reviewed by Lyn Potter. "I recommend this little book as a great conversation starter. It may surprise you ... to discover what kind of badges your friends and relations once wore, what they fought for, achieved, or belonged to."; New Zealand Listener, reviewed by Mark Broatch. "It's a potted history of our protest but of celebration too ... [they are] symbols of our principles, our aspirations, our pride."; Kete's 'What to Read in 2023 Non-Fiction from Aotearoa' list: "Potentially one of Aotearoa's quirkier non-fiction books [for] 2023." ;
