En savoir plus sur le livre

The book explores New Zealand's transition from colonial dependence on Britain, questioning its readiness to remove the Union Jack from the national flag and consider becoming a Republic. It focuses on the post-World War II era, highlighting how changes in Britain, particularly its entry into the European Economic Community in 1973, prompted New Zealand to seek new export markets. By centering the perspectives of primary producers, the narrative provides a unique insight into the country's economic decolonization and the implications for its trade relationships.
