Conceptions of national identity and opposition to bicultural policies in New Zealand: A comparison of majority and minority perspectives

Abstract: Using a nationally representative sample, the present research tested whether conceptions of national identity differentially predicted attitudes toward bicultural policies among New Zealanders of European, Māori, Asian, and Pacific descent. A series of multi-group structural equation models revealed that among members of the majority group and all minority groups, endorsement of a civic conception of national identity (i.e., respecting political institutions and laws) was related to opposition to resource pol… Show more

“…Beyond identifying subgroups of individuals, and as a matter of construct validity (Osborne & Sibley, 2017), we further examine whether these expected subgroups are meaningfully distinct from one another in their attitudes toward two social issues that have been typically considered in research on feelings of territorial ownership, and which are both relevant in the context of New Zealand: attitudes toward compensation for Indigenous Peoples NOOITGEDAGT ET AL.

“…Furthermore, in the English version, Māori were promised "exclusive and undisturbed possession" of their lands, whereas the Māori version grants them tino rangatiratanga, which can be interpreted as "absolute sovereignty" (Stokes, 1992). Potential compensation for Māori remains an ongoing issue in New Zealand (Devos et al, 2020;Hill, 2016). Although the conflict over territory in New Zealand is often framed as a conflict between Māori and the Crown, there is also opposition to compensation for Māori by individual New Zealand Europeans (Kirkwood et al, 2005), and public opinion has a substantive impact on public policy (Burstein, 2016).…”
