Abstract

This paper examines the New Zealand dairy industry and in particular the pivotal role of the New Zealand Dairy Board which, historically, has had sole responsibility for the international marketing of dairy industry output. The structure of the dairy industry is examined identifying the links between the dairy cooperatives and the Board using the concepts of the ownership, location, internalization (OLI) paradigm and alliance capitalism. The paper concludes that the structure of the New Zealand dairy industry and the New Zealand Dairy Board, more closely resembles the network structures of alliance capitalism, rather than being a monopolistic anomaly in a hierarchical capitalist system.
