Sample text

The relevance of Slaughter’s analysis for New Zealand is that it is a small, geographically distant, economically dependent country that has participated within international institutions since the formation of the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the League of Nations in 1919. While New Zealand is an active international citizen, the question is how much influence or power it has to ensure that globalisation protects and furthers the well-being of New Zealand citizens. It will be argued that while the reality is that New Zealand has little control over global market forces, it does retain some power over the impact of those forces on the people of New Zealand.

While world market forces were a constant in the New Zealand economy, so was the role of the state. He argues (2009, pp. 537, 552): The state played a central role in sustaining the institutional and attitudinal underpinnings of each era’s political economy. Interestingly, the election of a reformist political party was a reflex settler response in all of the three transitions discussed above: the Liberals in 1890, Labour in 1935 and Labour again (albeit a very different Labour) in 1984. Post-crisis consolidation of hegemony and legitimacy fell to conservative parties representative of (and/or responsive to) the newly ascendant economic elites.
