Abstract
AbstractThis article argues that the centrality of rugby as a key formulator of Pakeha ethnicity and agent of interracial integration has been contested in recent scholarly research. It further argues that although sport and ethnicity has been examined in some case‐studies and some general histories, to date we have no systematic scholarly assessment of the connections between sport and ethnicity in New Zealand. Our presently fragmented understanding of this issue reflects a wider problem within sports studies in New Zealand, namely the lack of any comprehensive study of the role of sport in New Zealand history.
