Abstract

Chapter 1 describes the structure of New Zealand primary production and its relationship with Britain, noting in particular the need for change because of Britain’s worsened financial state following World War II. The actual changes between 1945 and 1975 are reported noting how New Zealand reduced its dependence on exports to Britain. The chapter discusses how primary production has been reported in earlier studies and points out the diverse views on whether the community was overly conservative or innovative. The chapter concludes by outlining the themes of the book’s main chapters and identifies the main primary and secondary sources used for the book.
