Abstract

Abstract This chapter discusses the diverging regulatory responses of Australia and New Zealand in the aftermath of the March 2019 Christchurch attack. It discusses how Australia quickly passed the Sharing of Abhorrent Violent Material Act, a muscular contested platform regulation strategy. Across the Tasman Sea, New Zealand instead, after initially considering a similar approach, ended up orchestrating a global, collaborative, voluntary regulatory initiative with industry: the Christchurch Call to Counter Violent Extremism. The chapter shows how two countries can be driven by political realities to respond to the same event with very different strategies.
