Abstract

This article first examines Maori welfare interactions with government, mainstream voluntary sector organisations, and Maori service providers. It then discusses definitional, methodological and political issues which arise from a consideration of welfare and voluntarism across cultures in the New Zealand context. These are complicated by the selective, and sometimes contradictory application of different articles of the Treaty of Waitangi to social policy over time.This article has been peer-reviewed.
