Whakarāpopototanga:"In Waikato, confiscation endured into the 1960s through facilitated alienations of allegedly unproductive Māori land under the Maori Affairs Act of 1953. The book explains how government agencies utilised a range of measures to evict Māori owners from their land then sold or leased their land in the national interest. At Pōkaewhenua, near Okarea in Waikato, a Māori Land Court Judge deemed whānau land as wasteland and labelled it unproductive. Subsequently the land was then forcibly sold, its owners evicted and their cultivations and farms destroyed. Dione's analysis of Pōkaewhenua opens the doorway for other hapū and iwi to examine their recent historical records that record "sales" of their Māori land. Not all land was confiscated through the Public Works Act and as this book demonstrates many people did not actually sell, it was done on their behalf."--Back cover.
